This is going to sound crazy, but...

[Slanina]

Come on Rangers you have 1 more goal in you.

[ToyotaLC]

Haha oops. That was my personal play. Have my plays in a spreadsheet and thought that was one of his when I checked the scores tonight.

How are your personal plays doing?

[Slanina]

Well today went to shit.

[ToyotaLC]

Damn. I night with a lot of promise goes totally belly up. Seems these 50/50 shootouts are also going against us.

[SlickRick1382]

That Nashville loss was tough to swallow, 3-0 lead all of the sudden 3-3. Up 4-3 and allow a goal with a minute and change to play and finally lose in OT =/

[a4u2fear]

yep, but totals were 2-1, they are solid, trust me, could've been great night, but like was said, we must be 1-5 in our last 6 SOs.

[a4u2fear]

Teams
47-35, +3.67u

Totals
5-2, +2.9u

Personal Plays
1-0, +1.00u

[a4u2fear]

went to hockey last night, every play was winning or tied, come home, and somehow multiple games dive bombed. Nashville blows 3 goal lead and allows a goal with goalie pulled, then loses in SO, just our luck lately

[a4u2fear]

LA -178

FLA u5 -105
NAS u5 +125

[Jayvegas420]

Tailing....GL

[a4u2fear]

Tailing....GL

3-0 lets go

[bihon]

3-0 lets go

I actually already played the same picks on my own, so this one will be a parlay.
P.S. Got it @4.98 having NAS Under 5.5.

[blackHIPPY]

Gl tonight

[ToyotaLC]

Come on LA. Is this a turn around shoot out?

[Slanina]

We deserve this Kings win after last night's Nashville debacle. 2-2 Baby!

[Slanina]

This is a joke.

[ToyotaLC]

Just gonna say it. Shoot outs are guaranteed loses. I think 1-6, maybe 1-7. Unbelievable.

[ToyotaLC]

1-6 in our last 7 SOs then. Tough stuff.

[Slanina]

Started fully tailing when teams were +10 units. Totals last few days saving us. Rough stuff. Big card tomorrow, I'd imagine. Lets hope it's a good one.

[a4u2fear]

Unbelievable. These SOs

[a4u2fear]

What I'm about to say is going to sound quite unbelievable, but every word is true. I went back through every play and FOUND:

From start to where we were up +12 units, We were 1-6 in shootout deciding games
Since then, we are 2-6.

Obviously, some teams are better and worse in shootouts, but a run like this can be attributed to nothing but bad luck.

It's really disappointing.

[a4u2fear]

Teams
47-36, +1.89u
Shootouts (3-12)

Totals
6-2-1, +3.9u

Personal Plays
1-0, +1.00u

[a4u2fear]

I encourage everyone to stick with teams. I know it sounds tough right now, but most of the teams we were playing are favorites, so each of those shootout loses is nearly a 2.5 to 3 unit swing with each loss

I again, this morning, verified that everything is correct. Every year we are +20 units or more on teams; and we will get there.

a4, your absolutely right. Bad s..t luck in these shoot outs. Even drawing even in them we would be in better shape, but 1-6 getting to 6-6 7-7, 8-8 etc is gonna take a while. I over bet on LA (40 bucks) so I'm left with 100 in the account. Goal was 200 by New Years but I'll aim for 150 with tonight's plays. Small change for heavy hitters but it is all relative. As always, thanks for the picks and happy New Year.

Toyota. Bankroll management! Sounds like you are over betting your bankroll; you should NEVER do that. Easy to go broke like that.

I know I know. Had one to many PBR and was in a shawshbuckling type of mood. I find the hardest thing to do is stay conservative when things are going south.

Everyone learns the hard way. I learned it 7 or 8x over before I could fully implement money management.

[a4u2fear]

Slanina, you playing poker tonight?

[Slanina]

Slanina, you playing poker tonight?

Yes. I'm flirting with the top 40 bubble too. So New Years can wait a few hours. You?

wife is sick so alllllllll new year's plans have been canceled, so yea, I'll be home, she'll be in bed earlier and I'll probably play.

Used to all the time but the daily tournaments become too much

[a4u2fear]

11-10 SOG in sabres game, 2-1, hopefully stays under, barely any shots

Looking good so far.

[a4u2fear]

Any Sabres goal means a push at best. Come on, D!

Yea, barn burner, two periods 21 SOG
