If you didn't like playing this way, you could just change it and play the moneylines instead, most likely. Usually spreads are just conversions of the moneyline, or vice versa. If you played it this way, you would be much more likely to lose series, but your losses would also be very cheap. Keep in mind that the varied results from playing moneyline rather than puckline for underdogs was not tested and I wouldn't really recommend playing it unless you did test it.

#1366I'm not sure exactly what your question is, but what you're saying seems to be correct. The plays can be very juicy, but at the same time, that means they're more likely to win.

#1367Hey Wallco, new to the chase and looking forward to a profitable half season.
I am a bit confused by the betting amounts.
Here's the snippet from the original post:
If your team wins the first bet ((A) bet)), the series is over. If it loses, you will proceed to a (B) bet, wagering the amount you lost in (A) plus whatever profit you were trying to achieve in (A). If (B) bet loses, your (C) bet will be losses from (A) + (B) + profit. If (C) loses, the series is over and we take a loss. Hockey betting can be one of the most expensive sports to lose a 3 game chase, so adjust your wagers accordingly. Generally a loss is around 20 units, many are lower, and some are larger (could be upwards of 30 units). There are generally 150-170 plays in the v1 system, and from my backtesting I have noticed that it is usually around 9 losses before we take a negative for the season. This has only happened once.
So from my understanding, let's say I'm betting on a Flyers chase. In game 1 I bet $50 on the Flyers at +1.5 for -170. They lose.
A Bet Lost: $17
Profit Lost in Bet A: $10
According to the snippet above for my B bet, it'd be the 'amount you lost in (A)' which would be $17, plus 'whatever profit you were trying to achieve in (A)' which would be $10. $17 + $10 = $27.
So according to the above snippet my bet would be $27.
OK, Game 2 I bet $27 on the Flyers +1.5 at -200. I won that game and I take $13.50.
So basically after winning game two you're down $3.50 as you only recovered $13.50 of the $17.50 lost in your A-bet.
Should the original post say wagering to win the amount you lost in (A) plus whatever profit you were trying to achieve in (A)?Comment -

Do not place any wagers on teams unless you are sure your team is the dog or favorite. You may be overpaying for a loss if you play the P/L and should have been on the M/L, or lose a game that you would have won had you been on the (+1½) instead of the M/L. We will always play the M/L on favorites and (-110) games, and always play the (+1½) if the team we are betting on is a dog. ALL results will be based on this principle. If it is a close line game, you may want to wait til closer to game time to place your wager so you know whether or not we are on the (+1½) or the (M/L). All lines and standings are based on FINAL lines from ScoresandOdds.com/. If one of the teams we are playing switches from a favorite to a dog, or vice versa, after my initial post, make sure you get the appropriate line if it differs from what I have posted. The wins and losses will be based on who is the dog team on ScoresandOdds.com/ final lines.

#1371Gotta admit that the first night with ~20 units in play (because I got on FLA when it was the dog before I left this afternoon, mostly -- that was like 8 units) had me questioning my sanity a bit. But Nash just went to OT at 1-1, so looks like 5-1 tonight and I'll rest a little easier next timeComment -

However, people who bet Florida +1.5 -270 got a good line, as the line kept moving in Florida's favor.
Great start to the year

@Wallco, I have a question if you don't mind...
For V2, if both teams are -100 or worse (both -110 for example), and one of the teams DOES have a puckline, do we go by the moneyline or by the puckline in determining if they qualify for a system play?
I.e. if both teams are at -110, but one of the teams had the P/L at +1.5 (-340), and then that team ended up losing by 1, would that count towards their losing streak, or not?Last edited by CrazyCarl; 02-01-13, 03:01 AM.Comment -

#1375Risking nearly 10 units on the B bet is a bit unusual I believe (which people who got Florida +1.5 (-270ish) would've done).
However, people who bet Florida +1.5 -270 got a good line, as the line kept moving in Florida's favor.

And yes, that would count towards losing streak since -110 games are never playes with a puckline in this system.Comment -
