Check xxx's thread for ratings. All three are 5* tonight.

I will base my personal record on one unit to be consistent with other sports.

Thanks for posting your picks LT. Out of curiosity do you base them off the article you just wrote about line movement? Or is there more to it than that?

No, these are from good old fashioned handicapping.

LT,

Are you going to be posting your hockey plays in your own thread everyday? I see you are going to be keeping your record with 1 unit plays. Could you put your actual unit play in parentheses so we could see which are your bigger plays. That would be great. I've never bet hockey before, so any advice you can share would be great. Good Luck.

**Nicky Santoro** · 10-10-08, 12:00 AM

you would do a whole lot better if you would not get the worse of the line on all the games..

you could have gotten 10 to 20 cents more on each one of those 3 games if you'd waited till 15 min before puck drops..

these 10 to 20 cents per day over a season is an extra 50 units you would be up more a year.. getting the best of each # is extremely important..

every line moved against you today..

**fiveteamer** · 10-10-08, 12:02 AM

Nicky, sometimes it moves the other way.

Who can predict these things?

**smitch124** · 10-10-08, 12:09 AM

I'm pretty sure LT knows that, and that the lines move in his favor the majority of the time.

It really does not make much difference Hoff, since around 80% of my plays are 5* and around 20% are 4*, so there isn't much disparity anyway.

What smitch said.

**pat venditto** · 10-10-08, 01:23 AM

LT matchy had bruins +132 pal.

**LT Profits** · 10-10-08, 01:41 AM

Understood, but lines move in my favor more often than vice versa. Today was just one of those days.

**onlooker** · 10-10-08, 02:08 AM

On your way to another successful pucks season.

**pat venditto** · 10-10-08, 02:18 AM

lets get em onlooker

**jjgold** · 10-10-08, 04:42 AM

No one can predict line movements and you cannot wait until 2 minutes before the game to start because then it could be a bad line. It is pot luck so you bet the game when you like the play.

**pat venditto** · 10-10-08, 05:39 AM

Predicting line movement is not very hard to do. All you must do is analyze which side the public is going to pound. If the public is going to be on the side you like then you are better off taking the side right away before the line gets sour. If you like the side that is against the public then wait until gametime or close to it to get the best line possible.
