    Year of the rat / Week of the dog
    Starting on monday, dogs are coming in strong. Dogs are currently 17-12 +12.69units based on a one unit bet. betting 5 units per game would result in +63.45 units, if betting $100 per dog your profit for the week would be $1,269

    Thought it was interesting to see this strong of lopside this week.

    Thanks for the post...I don't have enough balls to pull the trigger on ML dogs too often unless I find one I really like. Interesting either way.

      IMO it's the strongest angle in hockey to play ML dogs. You will lose more games than you win, but the prices on some of the favs are so ridiculous considering the parity in the league that winning at 43% or so will guarantee you a profit. The key is getting over the idea that you HAVE to win every game you bet which leads you to playing far too many favorites and eventually losing alot of your bankroll. This concept called, "results orientated thinking", is what dooms most players.

        For some reason I thought I was in one of the Basketball forums...I agree with ML dogs in hockey

            Thanks for the insight C-King, i agree that bettors what to see a winning % with their picks when all that matters is being on the plus side when the day is done.
