I don’t hate the Celtics, I’m a huge Bird fan. I hate the Red Sox and dislike the patriots. I can take solace knowing kyrie lost

Fair enough. I hated the Sox until they traded Price. Now I'm just indifferent. I don't have a team I really like in baseball anymore. Diamondbacks probably the closest.

I'm still a Pats fan. But I like football. So I root for players more than teams.

I did like watching Tatum trying to do everything possible to get an iconic photo/video clip after they won. Felt a little forced, but good for him showing emotion.

Was cool to see. I'm not a big fan of the NBA but it was fun watching them roll through the entire league this year. Now we wait until September for something worth watching.

I'm also gonna just use not American odds, because you guys always choose to do the most stupid systems. If I say something is $5, it means that if I bet $10 on it that I'd get paid $50.

I've put a bit of money on the Celtics to win the season. They're just very good, and $4 is more than enough for me.

I also took Dyson Daniels (before the season started) to be the steals leader for $41. Just a tenner on that one though.

Then I took a tenner on a choice of ~12 teams, picking their overs and unders for win totals.

Will be hoping to watch a lot more bball, to go in hand with the betting. Early days of course so I'm only betting quite small amounts to remember the buttons, but I'm also finding the teams to target, and the teams to avoid, and the players too. If you reckon you find a trend with a player you watch a lot, even if you don't bet, I'd love to hear it.

I bet in a range of 1 unit, up to 5 units, depending on confidence. I'd be lying if I didn't sometimes put a 25u bet on too though, but I usually take that out of my pocket money rather than my gambling money.

So I've started with 100 units - and I will add more cash to that so the units will become larger, and the goal is of course to win - but also to just stay even.

I'm up to 124 units so far after some relatively straight forward wins in the days that've gone so far.
