Assuming my local posts a line on the series, any reason not to hammer Blackhawks? I know there are others who will say that there are better odds out there, and I get that, but with my local I obviously don't post up unless I lose, so even if its -600, I can bet $6k to win $1k and not post up unless it loses. Not like I am "losing" that $6k where I could put elsewhere.

So removing the value of the money elsewhere - any reason at all I shouldn't hammer the Hawks in the series price? I can't see them losing this series but being from Chicago I am obviously jaded so looking for any other advice??

Hawks-380 currenty at Pinny for series

Im agreeing gonna stick quite a lot (for me) On the Hawks series line. Then half that on Hawks/Pens and Half that on Hawks/Pens/Canucks maybe even half that again on Hawks/Pens/Canucks/Wings But not 100% yet.

I put 3K on hawks to win at -600. Before I called the line was -450 just moments before. I had to call them to place that bet at sportsbook.com NOW, the line has moved to -450 again!?

How can this be?

Surely they just screwed me on this one right?

scottgodson1985 · 04-29-13, 05:02 PM

put them in a parlay why risk 6k over a 2 week period to only win 1k

face · 04-29-13, 05:49 PM

yea, i like hawks to win. might parlay with kings who have owned the blues. maybe ducks beat red wings, still can't decide if i wanna include that.

hawks/kings/ducks pays +316

Pounded them at -360.

Hawks in 5, real possibility of a

k13 · 04-29-13, 08:10 PM

Everyone pounding the Hawks, why does the line keep going down?

Sport_Fish · 04-29-13, 09:20 PM

The most absurd series line...by FAR. -390 at my book.

This is free money.

newguy · 04-29-13, 09:26 PM

Yea - gonna likely pull back the reins a bit. Something not smelling right

DMBcardinal · 04-29-13, 10:34 PM

Minnesota has a lot of good players but I just don't see them getting it done. Hawks in 5.

face · 04-30-13, 07:23 PM

playoff hockey!!
go hawks

newguy · 04-30-13, 08:04 PM

Hawks look terrible in 1st period. Hopefully they look better 2p

Hopefully we close this thing out tonight. You probably did get screwed by the book but lets lock this win in. This was far and away my biggest hockey bet ever - really want to lock it down tonight!!!!

Yeah got £300 on them which is my 3rd biggest hockey bet of the year so big for my budget, but not compared to anyone on here. Wish I put a grand on them now because I think they finish it in Chi town tonight, but in a close one. Be nice to have £400 spending money in the account. Which means I got what -300 for this series? 1/3 is -300 in american odds, looks like I got decent odds compared to the -450 and -600 being spoken about here.

nyplayer33 · 05-09-13, 10:46 AM

guess the line wasn't fishy..i got pens in series to win parlay

bobbyk1133 · 05-09-13, 03:12 PM

Kane + Hossa + Toews = 1 goal in 4 games.

They should come alive tonight and put the nail in the coffin. Suter/Brodin are playing way too much hockey against the toughest competition and I have no idea why they decided to fly back to MIN in between games 1 and 2.

Hawks O2.5 (-158) is free $$$. -1.5 might be worth a play too...

This Hawks team can get too comfortable with a lead and concentrate heavily on defense. So they could get a two goal lead, stop pressing and give up something silly in 3rd period to win by 1. The +1.5 against Hawks has been good all year. I do think its scary that they are up 3-1 without the trio you mentioned doing much. Really would like to finish this tonight - don't want to go back to Minny again - lets just wrap it tonight.

They've gone to a lot of OT games going back to last year. That makes me a little hesitant about the PL, but I think MIN is in big trouble tonight. With a banged up Harding, they must know they are fcked.
