Reprice, Reshape, Recover: Thursday Card with Teeth

Road to March Madness — Season Build Countdown
Tournament tips off • Mar ’26

March is a portfolio, not a weekend. Every November rep feeds our tournament model—pace, shot quality, and lineup volatility—so this countdown keeps us focused on inputs, not vibes.

Daily Briefing
Thursday, November 20, 2025 — 9:00 AM ET
Bankroll 53% • NCAA early tip + TNF headliner.

November hasn’t been kind, but it isn’t over—not even close.

Last night’s 5–7 clipped us in a few spots, and Buffalo was a double hit—college and NHL both leaned the wrong way.

We finish the day at 53% of the month’s starting bankroll, and we’re not sugarcoating that; it stings.

But calendars matter: 11 betting days is a lot of at-bats when you size with discipline and let indicators lead.

NCAA Basketball, which dragged early, is starting to show real traction; the last few slates have delivered cleaner reads and better closes.

That trend is why you’ll see us lean into high-quality college spots today—measured volume, sharper prices.

Tonight brings an NCAA early start and a TNF card we like for edges across side/total/props.

We miss every shot we don’t take, and our process doesn’t flinch—indicators decide volume; bankroll rules decide size.

That’s how we won September and October, and it’s how we win the year: stack edges, ignore ego, settle up at month-end.

The story isn’t a single night; the story is cumulative cash flow—and that’s still very much in play.
