Why do books even bother putting these Lines out?

[k13]

So NHL is starting.....odds to who makes the playoffs....standard future prop...

Not expecting the biggest limits....Maybe $500...yeah....no...

$100 is all they'll take....


They should want to tie up money for futures, no???
At least adjust the line and let me bet again for another $100...ugh...so lame.

[jjgold]

[k13]

Bodog,
Betonline might be $250,
William Hill...limit is $5

Yeah Bodog is a real risk averse shop. Stopped playing there years ago as was tired of their BS. Would recommend Heritage but know you started a thread about issues signing up. Much better shop though.

It's pretty early. Limits might go up as we get close to season opener.

Take the oilers to win the cup

[RangeFinder]

Average bettor will not put that much into a future anyway plus it takes away any sharp money that could come in and create a lot of liability

[k13]

They dropped the line but still can't bet more than $100...

I rarely play futures and our props I’m not tied up any cash and there’s not much value in them anymore very very high juice

[PaperTrail07]

only people I know that bet them use credit lines w a bookie bc they don't pay until graded....otherwise they are a joke.

LOL no chance. you are waaaay off here. Oilers will never win a cup with Todd Mcclellan.

[danwinkler]

Take the oilers to win the cup

They are the 76ers of NHL. Finally will make the playoff easily but will exit right before finals. The season after is their year.

[milwaukee mike]

sharks to make playoffs at -275 and to win division at +275 have some value

conference/stanley cup futures are always too much of a crap shoot for my liking... but to make playoffs when there are so many garbage teams is easy $$$

western conference only has 15 teams, you can eliminate vanc/ariz so 8/13 teams make the playoffs, an average team should be -170 and a top tier team like sharks is only -275? joke, should be -600

[puckhandler]

Edmonton made playoffs year before last.

syllabus day of 2nd grade...

[keely85]

Might have a Canada v Canada cup this season, but it wont be the oilers
