Sports Betting, Plus American Idol Odds on Heels of The Bachelor

It's square root day and there is no question that the root of being squares in sports betting is gamblers who bet without the expert advice of the world's top sports handicappers.  We agree with CNBC's Jim Kramer of Mad Money, the stock market is a reckless gamble. We will add March Madness betting is a wise investment.

Today in the Daily Sports Roundup: The Suns head east to meet the Magic, the ACC hogs the college hoops spotlight, and the NHL offers up a dozen contests.

Tipping off on the hardwood  . . .

The Suns will be looking to get a road win against one of the East's best teams on Tuesday when they take on the Magic in Orlando. Phoenix is coming off an impressive 118-111 home win over the Lakers, with Shaquille O'Neal pouring in 33 points against his old team. Steve Nash sat out with a sprained ankle. The Magic knocked off the Sixers 106-100 in their last game on Saturday, with Hedo Turkoglu picking up 23 points. Rashard Lewis added 23 points as well in the win.

The Lakers will try to get back on track later on Tuesday night when they host lowly Memphis, while Sacramento will get a visit from Indiana in the other California contest. Earlier in the night it'll be Chicago at Charlotte, Denver at Detroit, New Jersey at Milwaukee, and Golden State at Minnesota. As well, the Rockets, who are 8-2 in their past 10 outings, will play at home against Toronto.

The march toward Madness . . .

There are three big ACC matchups on the college hoops schedule for Tuesday night, with Virginia at Clemson, Wake Forest at Maryland, and Florida State at Duke. The Blue Devils knocked off Virginia Tech 72-65 in their last game, as Kyle Singler and Gerald Henderson each tossed in 21 points. Duke is now 24-5 straight-up on the season, and 14-13-1 against-the-spread. Florida State beat Clemson 73-66 on Saturday, and they're at 22-7 SU and 15-7-1 ATS this season.

Michigan State plays Indiana in Bloomington on Tuesday night, while Gonzaga and Washington will both host unheralded opponents; South Carolina Upstate is at Gonzaga, while Seattle visits Washington. As well, conference tournaments get underway on Tuesday, with opening-round matchups for both the Horizon League and the Ohio Valley Conference; those continue for the rest of the week.

Sports headlines…

The news is bad from around the world. The Coast Guard is still searching for NFL players Marquis Cooper and Corey Smith. Rescued Nick Schuyler said the boat capsized….Gunmen attacked the Sri Lanka's cricket team in Lahore yesterday.

Entertainment betting…

While reality TV fanatics on Facebook lambaste worms Wife Swap's Stephen Fowler and the Bacholar's Jason Mesnick for his bait and switch treatment of Melissa Rycroft remaining with Molly Malaney, gamblers are celebrating the fact that the American Idol Vegas line is out. Lines-Maker.com  will later today break down the entertainment and political betting odds have Danny Gokey and Adam Lambert the initial favorites. Steam bets though have been placed on Alice Grace, Felicia Barton and Allison Iraheta.  

Winning investments…

While others have their hands out for the Term Asset Backed Securities Loan Facility, the power of 620 sports services behind every selection is continuing to stimulate the sharp player's economy. With the power of 620 sports services behind every selection the MasterLockLine is 8-3 for March.

Even hotter than Melissa Rycroft from the Bachelor 2009,  a Northern New Jersey service has had ten consecutive winning days and is No. 1 in all-sports combined since Feb. 1. Sunday it was Golden State under and Kansas led them to another winning day. Monday the one play was on Oklahoma City in the NBA, all they did was win outright! You know it's legit because you got EVERY ONE OF THEM. Today it's Kansas State/Oklahoma State

Taking a trip around the rink . . .

The NHL offers up a dozen games on Tuesday night as the league approaches its Wednesday trade deadline. Highlighting the early part of the slate is an Eastern clash between the Flyers and Bruins in Boston. Philadelphia is 6-3-1 in their past 10 games, but they've dropped consecutive decisions to the Canadiens and Devils. Boston is struggling on a 3-4-3 run, and they lost to the Caps 4-3 in overtime on Saturday; the Bruins went 1-0-1 against the Flyers back in February.

Atlanta will host Florida on Tuesday, with Carolina at Washington, Los Angeles at Columbus, Pittsburgh at Tampa Bay, Calgary at Ottawa, New Jersey at Toronto, Edmonton at Nashville, Detroit at St. Louis, and Anaheim at Chicago. Out on the west coast the Wild will be in Vancouver for a game against the Canucks, while the Sharks will be looking to grab a victory versus the Stars at home in San Jose.

Rounding out the Roundup . . .

College hoops conference tournaments will elevate many schools from bubble teams to March Madness participants, but it's a tourney lock that's pegged as the big Vegas favorite to win it all right now. North Carolina is listed at 17/10 odds to win this year's championship, as they sit ahead of Connecticut (5/1), Pittsburgh (6/1), and Louisville (10/1) on that list. Duke and Oklahoma both hold down 12/1 odds heading into the final week of college basketball's regular season, with UCLA at 15/1, and Wake Forest at 18/1. Always-popular Gonzaga is back at 40/1.
