    My Quest to Finish the Playoffs in the Black

    Yeah I'm not using the greatest book. Don't have enough to withdraw and switch. The prices were like -135 and +185 or somewhere around there but I waited too long and got shit lines.

    Great minds are thinking alike tonight. Both these plays are against the public and the line is moving in favor of the publicly backed teams.

    Game 4's are the biggest games IMO, All 4 of these teams tonight are going to come out hard and try and either make a whole new best of 3 (with home ice advantage if your Detroit) or put the boots the the throat of your opponent (with game 5 at home if your Vancouver).

    Should be a great night of Hockey!

    Yup they have been known to burn me too, which they just did. Refs are mostly to blame for those soft calls after letting everything go earlier on.

    Tough loss for the Canucks Dennis. I like them a lot in game 6. Can't wait to see what the price will be.

    Thanks for the sympathy man I was close to smashing my plasma after their choke again last game. I hope they can pull it off.

    No picks tonight as I was busy talking to police after flipping my friends motorcycle without a license. By the way does anyone on here know if this will cause my insurance to go up? All I got was a $171 ticket.
