    No problem. Believe it or not, you actually understand it better if reading it rather than being told. Good luck.

    I don't believe so, I looked and couldn't find it either. Lines are generated in Vegas, and US doesn't use decimal. Sorry.

    Hmm, ok, because I'm used to decimal and don't understand those, but anyway, started following your system few days ago. So, for the New Jersey game I should wait for like 15 min till start of the game, and then make a bet? Oh and sorry for dumb question, I'm kinda betting rookie.

    Boxa - no - the BEST way is to take the best line you can find. The reason for waiting for what I consider the worst lines would be to keep you in line with the system, which is fine.

    But there are no rules that say you HAVE to wait. The system is a method for betting and as long as you understand HOW to bet and on what games you are gold.

    Personally I'm waiting hoping NJ will turn into a dog but I doubt that will happen. It's a love hate with dogs/fav. Dogs you have that awesome cushion of +1.5 BUT - if you lose, that big juice will add up over the next few games to unbelievable heights!
    Boxa for you - just try to understand what happens in a loss. Take your loss - add one unit and that is what you need to WIN the next game.

    OK, thank you very much for your time and explanations. Got two more questions, just to make it clear I've got it right. Questions:
    1) for this game #19 Tampa Bay @ New Jersey (+1½) v1 (A) (7:35 pm EDT)
    We win if New Jersey wins, if New Jersey game ends up in a tie, or if New Jersey lose not more than a 1 goal difference? For Example we win if it is Tampa Bay @ New Jersey game ends up 3:2 or 2:2 or 0:3 ? And if the game ends like 4:2 we lose?
    2) for this game #23 Chicago (M/L) v1 (A) - Win
    the play was "Chicago had to win in regular, over time or penalties ?
    Sorry for all these question but I don't want to place a wrong bet :/ and thank you

    Well if that's the way you play then why bother to wait. You seem to want the +1 1/2 line on every game, then just play it on alternate line then. You can get that now.

    There are no ties in hockey. M/L means play the team to win outright, +1 1/2 means our team can lose by 1 and we still win bet.

    I think he's just questioning whether or not you've been placing on moneyline 3-way. Which with those odds, obviously you are not. But I believe that is the query.

    WOW - I do it once and now it's all the time LOL

    Actually I got lucky as I didn't think NJ would become a dog and almost waited too long. Still got -110 instead of -115 at 5 DIMES.

    Well if that's the way you play then why bother to wait.
    EXACTLY! Makes no sense at all to wait for a worse line just so it's in harmony with the system. You can't bet like a monkey, you need every edge you can get!

    What the hell is a M/L 3-way?. Not familiar with that term.

    I agree the +1 1/2 is always better to have and it is avaailable on every game. But backtest showed that the M/L will cover the majority of the time so no need to overpay for a loss. Even though a few more series may be won by having the +1 1/2 all the time, I think over the long haul it would hurt you on plays that the system doesn't call for it. But that is a whole different backtest.

    They were a dog for a while, but they are now a favorite again. -110 may be the best line we see from here on. But who the hell knows, that's why I wait. Good luck tonight,

    So if the team on scoresandodds.com is -110 or less then it is considered a dog for the system. And if it is -111 or greater it is considered a favorite? Can someone help me out and tell me if this is correct or not?

    That is incorrect. Post #2447 is pretty clear, and will answer the last five people's questions, with the exception of Grinder's question. Also VERY clear is the bottom paragraph of EVERY one of my update posts. Thanks.

    Is the number, #19 correct for today? We had a #19 on 10/27 that Ana won. If I'm wrong, sorry about the confusion.

    Detroit's on a 4 game losing streak and TB's on a 4 game winning streak. Wouldn't we be playing Detroit today?

    Firstly, although DET did lose 4 straight it is a NO PLAY because they did not lose 3 straight ATS. Secondly, TB does not have a 4-game winning streak. They only won 3 straight so we played NJ +1.5 on Tue and we won.

    Wait, sorry. Not TB, I meant Vancouver is on a 4 game win streak. Or does this not count because they lost ATS to Washington?
