Well my biggest bet of the night didn't come through.
No way Sabres should be able to score 2 on Canucks...Miller is disappointing in stretches.

KalouKalou · 01-30-15, 11:54 PM

I'm just curious Rocket, why did you play both Nashville and St-Louis after their OT game?
For me it's a big red flag and I like to play the under with this kind of teams.

yup I had that one also...my Hawks bet is shaping up nicely though...too bad I've played very conservative on them today
I'll be up a little over a unit on the night if CHI wins

Hawks live under 5.5 like free cash

St Louis was a no-brainer at this price...they're a much better club than Carolina in every category. Also liked how hard Preds fought the Blues last night...I mean they almost won that game. Plus there is a reason why Nashville is currently 2nd in the West and Colorado 10th.

3 way? I only see U5 -111

whareouttogetme · 01-31-15, 12:31 AM

Today ending up being a pretty good day after a shitty start.

Still could have done with Blues in reg and Preds to win

I can't read the avs at all

Russian Rocket · 01-31-15, 12:33 AM

Today: 6-3-2 +1.12u
YTD: 367-363-15 -11.65u

whareouttogetme · 01-31-15, 12:34 AM

Canucks have been really good to me this season. They might not be capable of beating huge teams, but they seem to finish off little teams pretty well, whereas others don't (Bolts, Pens, etc..)

And I don't know who they're playing but I'm going big on the Ducks next game

perfect chance to hit back after two big losses. huge card tomorrow, anything standing out to you?

and what are your thoughts on the race to 3 goals market? when do you choose that over ml/regulation win?

I never choose that over something...only play it in addition to ML or reg or both. Usually pick a high scoring club like ANA, Blues, CHI over someone with shitty defense or unproven goalie

RollinDo · 01-31-15, 12:47 AM

Finally back to a winning day!
Not much profit due to Sabres, but feels good to be up on the day...and 4-0 in our little contest.

Ah. I wondered if it might be good to play with some teams like Tampa or San Jose who can score plenty of goals, but often choke at the end and lose it.

RollinDo · 01-31-15, 01:07 AM

This afternoon came up with my leans for Sat.

Boston ML
TB -1
Canes TT (U 2.5)

The ones that stand out for me are

Habs ML
Wings ML
Flames ML
Jackets/Bolts over
Stars/Jets over

I'll probably split those into doubles/trebles.

Which of those home teams is your strongest lean?
Was thinking Wings too, but their goaltending has been shaky lately.

2 totals I'm looking at are Caps TT (U 2.5)...Price has been ridiculous lately...can't remember the last time he's given up 2+.
Toronto TT (U 2.5)...team just can't find the back of the net lately...gotta wonder if this team has much MOJO left...Mason has been solid at home for over a month...Philly tends to the Under in home games this season (more so in last 2 months).

RollinDo · 01-31-15, 10:39 AM

Lots of plays today...

Carolina TT (U 1.5) +150
Caps TT (U 2.5) -125
Colum-TB (U 6) -145
TB (-1) -134
Boston ML -137
Parlay: Philly / Hawks +1.5

I like it Rollin...will tail you on some of these

Russian Rocket · 01-31-15, 10:45 AM

that Habs line moved from -130 all the way to -117, even after Price got confirmed...very strange

Yeah...given the fact he has given up 2 or less in 11 of his last 12, went with Caps TT (U 2.5)
Caps have won 10 of last 13 vs Habs

looks like a ton of people like Caps at this spot here...I'll still probably going to go with the Habs...that over 5 is also calling my name

Russian Rocket · 01-31-15, 11:02 AM

still no line on FL vs NJ game...I think we need to pound Panthers at this spot as long as Lou is in the net

SEAHAWKHARRY · 01-31-15, 11:08 AM

it's hard to handicap the choke

...but I like that idea

The Caps have absolutely owned us in our home. They have won 7 straight, with a 25-5 goal margin. Holtby is 5-0-1 against us, with a .98GAA. For some reason, we never could put it together against the Caps. As much as we are playing really well lately, this is going to be a tough one. Carey has been playing lights out this season, yet his numbers against Washington are really bad, 3.24GAA. Living in Montreal and being the biggest fan, even I'm on Washington this afternoon. Need to listen to my head on this one, not my heart. Washington is the right play. I got them yesterday when the line opened at 2.20, glad I did. GL on the play you choose here, just thought I'd give some insight.

thanks Fred...yeah I'm aware of these stats & the overall record, was just surprised that books knowing all that information would still set Habs at -130
betting against your own team takes guts

...can't wish you luck on this wager, but good luck with the rest of your plays for today

Thanks RR! GL on your plays as well! Don't get me wrong, I don't want to see the Habs lose, but I just can't see them pulling it off. I don't know what it is with these home games against Washington, I really don't. Who knows, maybe that all changes today, and you win your bet.

the bottom line is at the end of the day you'll be happy regardless - either after winning your wager or after seeing your home team destroy the Ovie train

SEAHAWKHARRY · 01-31-15, 11:43 AM

Need a good two teamer Rocket haven't done one this week yet gimme two to shoot for pal!!!

I'm not a big fan of hockey parlays Harry...let's do two separate bets instead

I think the Flames will bounce back with a win tonight for sure. So either Flames or Habs
