        For example, for NHL games, I simply go to proline.ca and check the odds. So today, FLA @ MTL, the odds were 3.00 for FLA and 1.25 for Montreal. I would obviously pick Montreal there, simply based on the odds, and they did end up winning.


        well, at FLA 3.00 and MTL 1.25, you just played into a 200 cent line, instead of a 3 cent line at matchy.. lol

        that line means MTL -400/FLA +200.. you laid -400(4x your money) rather than -210 at matchy, or 2x your money..

        if you think you are winning with #'s like this, just imagine how much you'd win offshore. usually when a dog at proline is +160, it's +300 offshore.. when a fav is -300, it's -150 offshore.. for your leisure bettor like yourself, proline are thieves..

          agree, fla was a 3.1% edge with proline odds of 3.00 odds, correct odds 2.91 using pinn..
          save your money and stick with sure things on proline

            Sticking to one sport is one way to make it easier to profit, and the NHL is supposedly one of the easiest to beat. I'm not too familiar with it but trying to learn. Anyway, i looked at teams that closed at -200 or more this season.

            Overall 72-25 +13.7 Units

            Obviously not the conclusion I had expected but I went through all of the trouble to type it, might as well post it. I'd imagine with a larger sample size it will dip into the red though.

                Indeed... Boston College wins outright as a +3000 dog. 5dimes was offering -5200 on NC. 5200 to win 100, right down the drain.

                  Welcome MJ. Just join a book and find out how good your method will be. Or go into the hockey forum and post your plays each day. Somebody posts up a thread for the best bets of the day and keep track for the year, so you can post your plays there and see how you would be doing.

                  Duke seems like a sure winner, but didn't North Carolina. That was a huge favorite that lost. Along with NBA today.. Boston, Cavs, Mavs all lose straight up. They were big favorites for moneyline.
