    Parlays are the worst possible bets you can make. Sure you can hit a few and look good, but long term, you are loosing so much value. On top of already losing value by buying a goal. Its going to be very, very hard to win long term like that.

    Two negative expected value plays doesn't become one good when you parlay.

    I want to test this theory tonight... Attached is a spreadsheet with all of the information and expected outcomes based on the system. My wager will be small... 10 dollars to win 174.50 (parlay all games). (This doesnt include washington and NJ games in the parlay since they dont have a 4.5 or 6.5 total on that site...but I listed the expected outcomes for those in the spreadsheet)....I agree fully that this isnt sustainable with the juice involved... especially because you can buy a half point on gamebookers for much less and do 5 or 6 totals instead of 4.5 and 6.5.. but.. Anyway. Good luck all.. we'll see if this comes through.

    Good luck.

    IMO buying points for O/Us just isnt worth it. Just way too pricey to buy 1 extra goal, you are better off just playing the original total. Your essentially paying 1 unit for 5.5 goals, and doubling that price to 2 units for 1 extra goal. Just not worth it.

    You can actually check for yourself. All you have to do is go to last Sat. with the averages and my criteria and you will see. You don't have to take my word for it but if you have doubts do your homework first. Any game totaling 5 or 6 is a win which is like half the games and then you just have to check the others.

    Interesting theory. I might try this on the side aswell. What I will do tonight is have both sides in seperate parlays using pairs. So even if one or 2 games fail you still come out ahead.

    CBS VS. Buf UNDER 5 +170
    MTL VS. Bos UNDER 5 +112
    NYI VS. Pitt UNDER 4.5 +198
    TOR VS. NYR UNDER 5 +135

    ANA VS. Minn UNDER 4.5 +173
    TB VS. Nash OVER 6 +152
    LA VS. Dal UNDER 4.5 +162
    WAS VS. Edm UNDER 5 +134
    NJ VS. Phx UNDER 5 -112

    Risking $50 on each.

    I'm going to buy points up to 6.5 and bet the under of every game along with parlaying the "locks"(personal favorites of the night) and see how it goes. Placing $10 on each bet and $20 on 3game parlays

    The second set is just closer to what they should average for the game based on their past games. Rounded down under .5 and up over .5. So if the combined average is 5.35, I would go UNDER 5. There will just be more ties this way and probably a better chance of $$'s.

    Has this 'system' been back tested at all? I don't see how this could possibly be profitable long term.

    2 Games max. Hockey can be so up and down. Just do your homework. I would have never went over on the stlouis van game. Ive looked at the history between those 2 teams, there always 2-1, 3-2 games. I liked the montreal over, it was only a matter of time befor the canadiens would show up, and bryzgalov sucks against montreal in his history.

    If only it was that easy......I bet NHL o/u almost every day - for the last 3 years. Goals for and against averages are a good place to start. Along with previous head to head record, over/under record, last 5, 10, 20 games, goalie's last 5, 10, 20 games and games against that team along with injuries and coaching philosophy, days rest and a few I don't have on the tip of my tongue.

    GL on your averages.

    You are better off betting LIVE and getting a better number.

    Or if you want to lay serious juice, bet365, no team will score 5 goals in the game props. I pick my spots and parlay two.

    Did some calculations. Took the average juice for O4.5 for the 11 games tonight and got -240. That means at the juice of -240 break even point is 70.59%. Percentage of games going O4.5 last year was 70.49%.

    Looks like LA and Dallas will go OVER so that will be the only loss so far. 8-1 on the night so far.

    just checking out teams who played each other twice. the record is 10- 4 where the game over/under reversed.

    dallas kings 1-0 last time out. tonight over....this would be at a normal 5.5 though.

    Unreal record so far but gotta think 70% win ratio over the course of a full season just can't be sustainable.

    First off, thx for the sharing spankmythights.

    Just one question:
    Has anyone done the calculations to determine what should be the rate of success (hit ratio) for this kind of juice?
    At 37-4 (90%) I know it's good ...but what's the lower % number until we go into the red?

    thx

First 12345 ... Last
