Both teams are tied at 3. This should be interesting.
Correction: both teams are now 4-3 in our favor!!!Comment -
A positive mental attitude is a wonderful thing...
in EVERY OTHER area of life BUT sports betting...
and for some reason the gods of Hockey take special joy in making us pay for expecting good things to continue till the end of the game.
In the rest of life, you get what you expect...but once you put money on an event, everything reverses and thots of gold bring shit. Many advocate the "reverse jinx "...expecting shit to attract gold...as in
"we're up a goal now...but there's no way they can hold on...might as well throw our tickets away now..." doesn't seem to get people riled up (when the game is blown) near as much as someone who was celebrating prematurely (=taking the victory for granted)
it's the hockey-bettor's version of theatre-performers telling one another "break a leg"...cuz they're afraid wishing for good luck will bring the opposite...
or...baseball players, even broadcasters being very careful to not mention a pitcher hasn't given up any runs...

Things sure was looking good. O well. Hopefully better luck next time.
Seems things didn't go as bad as I thought last night. 5 dimes gave me a push (they said cancelled) on the total points bet. I thought under 5 and the total points being 5 would be a loss.
Glad I was wrong!!! So really we was 1-1-1 last night. So by my calculation (using El Nino's lines) we only lost .6 of a unit.Comment -
1-1-1 -0.60u
YTD

3/26
Chicago Blackhawks Regulation (-125) 3u
Chicago Blackhawks -1.5 (+145)
YTD
74-55-2 +32.26u
3u pound play on the Blackhawks in regulation. The Blackhawks have not lost back to back home games all season and have not lost more than 2 in a row all season. The Calgary Flames are horrendous on the road. They have lost their last 9 straight road games with 8 of those losses in regulation. Of those 9 straight road losses, 6 covered the puck line. The Flames average goals against in this 9 game road losing streak is 4.22. Bounce back game here for the Blackhawks with Emery likely between the pipes. He stopped 45 of 47 shots and notched the road victory in a shootout in these teams' last meeting February 2nd. Emery has not been credited with a loss yet this season. He is 11-0 with a 2.26 GAA and a .916 Save %.
Much like the Chicago Blackhawks, I am looking to avoid dropping 3 straight 3u pound plays.
YTD: 3u plays 10-3 +17.81u

Locked and loaded. Go Blackhawks. I see last time they played this team they won by a shootout. Lets hope this time they win in regulation with a point to spare.
I'm feeling pretty good about this one. Good luck everyone and thanks El Nino for the pick. Much appreciated.Comment -

Chicago wins 1-0, is the bet a push or do you lose?
(I'm on 5d and it still says pending)Comment -
Thanks,Originally posted by nlin
Puck line is -1.5 so the Blackhawks needed to win by 2 goals, which they did. The 3u play was that they would win the game inside of regulation (60 minutes), which they did.
I'm not on 5dimes, but would chalk it up to slow bet grading.Comment -
Big brain fart, thought they only won 1-0 for some odd reason.Originally posted by El NinoThanks,

I recently joined 5 dimes for the regulation lines. But don't see no regulation lines today. Anyone know what is up?Originally posted by El NinoComment -
they don't have itOriginally posted by bald_guy
check when it's a bit closer to the game and you'll see a bigger variety on +/- side for team totals and puck linesComment -
Good wisdom

Very good view sir, so much truth.
Laws of attraction are always in effect.
Gratitude is dueComment -
It's there now. I'm new to 5 dimes so guess it takes a bit for them to post the first 60 minutes line.Originally posted by Russian RocketComment -
geez nino, where are you seeing wild +100?Comment -
That's a regulation bet... I'm seeing around -145 just to win but to win in regulation those are the oddsComment -
really surprised at that line nonetheless, lots of value. F'n bovada has -160.Comment -
nino what book are you using for NHL? Sorry, dont mean to spam your threadComment -
Please refer to the very first post. Nino address these questions.Originally posted by mnwild11Comment -

Tailing ya Nino lets do thisComment -
Actually I just threw that number out without checking exactly what I got it in at, thought I remember it being -145... I use a local guy so my lines may be different occasionally but I just checked my pending bets and I actually got it at -155 not -145Originally posted by mnwild11Comment -
Here is the lines I secured at 5 dimes for tonight's games. Its only .01 unit better then Nino's.
3/27/13 9:05pm NHL Hockey 54 Minnesota Wild (1st 60 min) ½ +106* vs Phoenix Coyotes (1st 60 min)
3/27/13 7:35pm Reduced Hockey 51 Montreal Canadiens/Boston Bruins Under 5 +110*Comment -
I use BookMaker lines. Wild opened at -160 for me as well. To win in regulation is the +100. So if it goes to OT, or the Coyotes win, the wager is a loss.Originally posted by mnwild11
I know the Wild have not played well at home against the Coyotes the last few years, but they should win here. LaBarbara is not playing well for the Yotes and they are a bad road team. Nobody wants to play the Wild right now. The X will be rocking.Comment -
