[Huckleberry Pig]

yuck, way too much for a team that hasn't played well lately...

my coyotes pick is looking good right now, great payout for it too. hope it continues to stay that way

[tombuckers]

Huck what you looking at for the wings game today? What are they like on B2Bs?

Pretty good day, 5-3 on the night, hit both my 2*s which had VERY nice payouts and even cashed a couple of totals. Both of the B2B's went the way the spreadsheet indicated so that's always nice. I may try to take some time at somepoint and run the same spreadsheet for years past to see what the numbers are like cause if they trend like this every year we are looking at some PRETTY %'s that could really give us an edge

This will be a 3* play on the RedWings game! This, as I've said all year, is my favorite situation and has the highest trend % (granted it is lacking a little data but the current % is pretty unreal). They are on the B2B, both home games, and won the first. Teams that do that go on to win the 2nd home game 83% of the time (they are 19-4 this year in the 2nd home game after winning the 1st home game). What I love about this trend is that the home team often gets undervalued since they are on the B2B and people over play that when really it is the opposite.

These plays have been 3* plays for me ALL year and at a 19-4 rate it's a cash cow.

Taking the Bruins -0.5 -130

They got called out yesterday by their GM, response game, Rask vs Linback in net

[bigbadbruins22]

Beautiful, this was planning on being a big bet for me too. So thats a big one on Wings.

What about Blues ML? Surely great value for the blues? I expected it to be -200 or something. What you thinking about this game?

not a B2B game but they should take care of business at home against a terrible road team

yikes, 7-11-1 on the night but did get 2/3 on my 2* or higher picks, think I'll be laying off totals from now on, not my forte. I get a better feel for teams than I do winners. BTW, if I have it as a 1* pick, DO NOT TAIL. It means I have done very little to zero research on it, just going by gut feel. However, 2* or greater means I have looked into it and done some HW on it. Just thought ya'll should know that.

[Huckleberry Pig]

Alright boys, I'm about to take on the daunting task of backtracking this "system" I have going. I'm very surprised with some of the trends and how consistent they are but I'd like to see what previous years were like to see if this is something I can continue to expect. About to start on the 2012 season.

[Huckleberry Pig]

this may take a few days lol

[tombuckers]

Haha, so your not gonna be posting any plays in a while then Huck?

NYI ml -106 $106 to win $100
Oilers O5 -113 $113 to win $100

[Huckleberry Pig]

looking forward to see what you come up with

Thanks cores, I spent a few hours today on the previous season and since it was a full season there are a lot more B2B's.

prob spent 4-5 hours on it today and didnt even get halfway through the teams. I'm also very much looking forward to seeing what the results are and if there are any correlations.

My goal by the end of the summer would be to have it backtracked 5 years. I'll obviously keep y'all posted

[Huckleberry Pig]

It also appears I went 2-1 in my picks >1* which is good, will take that any day. Hit the 3* too. Also got a nice even payout with the sabres as a 2*. Coyotes could still cash but at this point it's very unlikely so I'm counting it as a loss...

Again, 2-1 on my picks that are 2* or better, I like it.

[Huckleberry Pig]

Well coyotes tie it up, 4 minutes to get a goal and to get a 3-0 night on my 2* and above picks... Doubt it happens but ya never know!
