ElCapitan's 2011-2012 NHL Thread

[thelimit0310]

The New Jersey chase is becoming very expensive tonight: total bet is now over 60 units to gain 1 unit on the BR. I've never been here before.

That is a gnarly bet Kev, good luck. Another comforting fact is that the 2nd C loss is doubtful, usually there are only 2 losses season long, but be careful you never know.

Welcome to the NHL, where you have to lay down 3 times the amount you'd like to win on a daily basis.

Thank god I'm labbying, I could never have a sack large enough to throw down 50 units on a series. Christ. Hope this baby pulls through tonight

Scary nite

[Win89]

Yea the only good thing about these ridiculous NHL odds is that It makes the NBA and MLB much more tolerable....no more 3 to 1.

[bauerranch]

let the fun begin!

[oklahoma]

ah Montreal at +129, nice hit.

[Win89]

The last few minutes felt eery....2nd [C] loss.

[thelimit0310]

double post

[thelimit0310]

Well, with this monster C bet loss (2 games at greater than -300...) it looks like V1 has lost more than -50 units already.

So has this ever happened before? Last season was 1 loss. This year were at 2 big losses at just over 2 months into the season!

I feel so sorry for our chasers, seems the rest of this season will be spent in recovery and hoping there aren't anymore losses this year, which seems unlikely, there will probably be one more at some point.

Incredible. Thanks New Jersey.

Two losses in NHL and four losses in NFL. Is anyone brave enough to try NBA this year?

I will be. Only reason this system is doing so bad now is because the lines for Jersey were huge. Luckily I labbied this system so after this C loss i'm only down a few units and could turn around and show a profit this season. Unlike the chasers which even if we have a perfect season this point forward would still finish -5 units. In NBA I labby as well as play it all at -110.

Looking forward to NBA this year and I hope NHL has picked up by start time!

[NickJ3]

If only some games would just go the way they were suppose to.

[ghislaine]

I labby too, and although my lines are a little inflated now, had to even out and stretch the line to include 8 digits, I know I can clear it... in time, just need four more winners than losers. Couple of days I figure.
I def labby all my cappers and systems, takes the edge outta one game when I concentrate on clearing the lines and thinking about the new line bet size

The V2 has performed pretty well actually and I took it two nights ago to some profit.
Anyone hopping on board for the MIN series ?? I am giving it real consideration and will prob wager it, just shopping and looking at other cappers as well and their sentiments...

[Bet Striker]

The only way to win in a Hockey chase system is to only play the straight up bets. Yea, you will have a few more losses, but your almost awaysl playing with + money or very low risk on road games. Not 3-1. I mean think about it, playing only the moneyline your 19-3 and 20-1. You can easily recoup that 1 loss off your next couple of bets. However, you don't have to because even with those 4 losses you are up over 17 units. I've learned the hard way when it comes to chases, trust me. Never chase high money line games, they will eventually bite you in the rear. Even in Morrison's nba, I play straight up, I never buy the 3 points. It's all about risk folks. Find the positive line and let the house money work for you. But hey, we all play at our own risk and sometimes we lose, that's why they call it gambling.

not quite. i dont remember how his record works but it shows 22-11-5. so playing straight up isnt the way to go. you damn well would not be 19-3 +17units.

[Win89]

I believe it's V1 and V2 ML combined that would have you up in units....22-11-5 is the quantity. I think clearly at this moment ML is the way to go although It will probably have the higher number of [C] bets but 3-game PL losses are devastating.

[delbiand]

Elcapitan thanks for your help, could you tell me
what is the total score for V1 and V2?

[delbiand]

I mean 22(a)-11(b)-5(c) but lose?

[delbiand]

The total score for the last year, because I see only the a-b-c results and not the lose

[djluvr]

Damn new jersey, glad i was only small on that play and glad the V2 keeping me in the game. Keep up the good work mate

Another play im liking is the under on the lightning game. Can't see it being a high scoring game.

[COYLO]

Is anyone brave enough to try NBA this year?

i thought there was a shut out this season, did it get sorted then??

[Win89]

An agreement was reached and a 66 game season will begin on Christmas Day. Cant wait! Hopefully it can help us out and fix whatever is happening here.

[COYLO]

happy days

last year was so good too, hopefully these will be the only losses the rest of the season

[oklahoma]

i wonder how this system will be effected should the nhls conferences all be realigned. for one thing, there will be a lot more plays.

Realignment is official. Will make it interesting, for sure.

[oklahoma]

Realignment is official. Will make it interesting, for sure.

there will be a version 3 system probably, playing it as if there were still 2 conferences the way we're doing it now.

[EasyPicks]

Capitan are u still only betting the V1 system? and down the 55 units on the PL bets?
