Saturday
Both hockey games were winners last night but not without some assistance as the Devils were gifted the only goal of their game and the Islanders required a shootout. I ended up with action on New Jersey but not New York.
Two plays tonight. In football Utah +10 away to Stanford and in hockey a rare total Buffalo/Toronto Under 5.5 -130
Friday Leans
They are at home vs the Cavs tonight. The line started at 211 -115, and since has moved down to 210 at -105. I’ve now been enticed to jump on in as I am 3-0 with this theory so far. The Celtics are the best inside FG team in the league (at .503 percent!) and the Cavs are in the bottom 5 in allowing points in the paint.
I also like the Detroit Red Wings +110 vs Chicago. The super duper Pavel Datsyuk is back in the lineup tonight.
Update: Lou took the Devils at +140.
Friday
Losers all around as the Coyotes lost 5-3 in Calgary and Philadelphia lost by 53. The good news is they were only 39 points away from covering. Southern Miss was a winner for anyone who played it. One NBA option tonight and that’s Miami I think away to Atlanta. Hockey options are the Islanders and New Jersey. I’ll wait on line moves and the like and update if there’s a play around 7. I’ll guess that New York will probably end up being a pass and New Jersey a play.
Two college football unders I wanted to post since I’ve put them down already:
Nebraska/Wisconsin UNDER 57
Georgia Southern/Navy UNDER 63
Thirsty Thursday
Detroit was a winner yesterday as our microscopic plays on the NBA continue. I’m even dipping my feet into the college football world these days despite not being able to name any players from either teams of the games I pick. Ignorance at its finest. I have a lean but not a play tonight on Southern Miss +7 traveling to someplace called UTSA. No idea where that is.
I won’t be around to update NBA, but I’ll be taking Philadelphia +14 if I can find it (currently at 13.5). Lastly a confirmed hockey play Phoenix +125 @ Calgary
Wednesday
Another apology from me not getting Florida up until very late as they cruised to a 4-1 win. Dallas was also a dramatic winner so hopefully some of you were at least able to hop on that play. Sacramento was a push in NBA. Not much doing tonight with Toronto a notable pass at home to Boston. We do have one NBA play, whatever that’s worth, Detroit +6.5 @ Washington
Tuesday Leans
2-0 with betting this Celtics Over theory so far, still under 200 so going with it again tonight Over at 197 (-115) vs OKC
Also have an early NFL lean: took Broncos -10 at EVEN on Monday; Shaun Hill has been named the starter (whoo hoo!) so I now love the Broncos here (line is +9 on pinnacle, great news if I can get this on Bovada). The only results I see on this game are Broncos by 2 TDs or more…..or a Rams win (they do have a good defense but Shaun Hill does suck). So if you lean St. Louis, take the ML IMO.
AND BTW, this line is for Pat:
Tuesday
Apologies for the late post. At least one play here tonight and it starts very soon:
San Jose @ Florida +140
There should be one more hockey game and possibly an NBA game later
NBA: I am in agreement with Pat on this one and that’s a bit scary. Sacramento +8 @ Dallas
NHL: Dallas -115 @ Arizona
Professional Hockey and Basketball
Wagers for the evening. Basketball WTFK, hockey I will try to justify my decisions based on the twenty something minutes I read the Hockey News site today…
Magic +11 -110 @ 19
Kings +7.5 -105 @ 19
All plays @ 15
Winnipeg +131
Do I remember the name of the Jets goalie off the top of my head? No I dont, but I wrote down that he is playing very well recently. Montreal has not led a single game this year after the first period.
Sharks/Panthers Under 5 +118
Sharks are in the middle of a long road trip. Combined with the Panthers having Luongo and the fact that they seem scoring challenged…
Lightning/Blackhawks Over 5.5 +102
Both teams seem to be firing offensively recently.
Stars/Coyotes Under 5.5 -119
My lone note here was Arizona – hot goalie. Jpeg or recent form?
Ottawa +140
Most of the public money is on the Canucks for this one, and I bet a solid amount of people who did that had the thought that this was a pretty even match-up but Vancouver is at home so f@#% it. Let’s go the other way.
Monday
An okay Sunday for us, winning on the Jets but losing on the Raiders, with the moneyline play pushing the season into positive territory. Toronto was a late decision and was a winner as well, and we even passed on the Bears Sunday night in another good decision. NFL is now 8-9 +0.85 and NHL is a similarly mediocre 10-11 +1.8.
Not much happening tonight with only two hockey games and Panthers-Eagles in NFL. Hopefully a few more plays tomorrow.
NFL Week 10
This was a tough week to pick; not a lot of big plays here, just enough to hit my bonus on the site I bet on (as well as the fact that I have a gambling problem).
Pittsburgh -6 (EVEN) at NYJ
I can’t stop betting against Mike Vick
Jacksonville +7.5 (-110) vs DAL
Let’s start our QB who has a back problem after an 8 hour INTL flight. I can see Dallas losing this game lol
Baltimore -10 (EVEN) vs TEN
Mettenberger gets thrown to the wolves today
MIA at DET Under 44
2 really good defenses and 2 really average offenses = a game that probably could help one take a nap
TEASERS:
BAL -10, GB -7, ARI -7, PIT -6
SEA -10, OAK +13*
*also agree with Lou on Oakland and might take them once 4:00pm rolls around. They are playing hard every week.
