I just bet $9.93 on a Leafs win at PartyBets.com. I figure that's about how much I would pay for a Toronto loss.

BTW...$23.43 if they happen to win.

Serge's picks for Monday October 15, 2007(all lines as of 5pm on platinumsb.com)
Leafs +150
Obviously I like the Leafs here, however I am betting them at the price I am getting. This Leafs squad has played the Sabres solid in Buffalo and cont forget the disaster 5-4 loss that cost them a playoff spot last year. Buffalo has shown they can score but like the Leafs they have defensive lapses.
Take the Leafs here.
Detroit +102
This Anaheim squad this year has been very unimpressive..The Red Wings on the other hand are looking very good. Anaheim might finally show up, however we arent convinced. Coming off a nice win over LA last night. Wrong team favoured here..Take the Wings.
Leafs vs Buffalo OVER 6.5 -118
Whenever we see a line at 6.5 we jump at the over. The books are enticing the under however everything in this game points to the over. Also with talk of backup Thibault getting the start this one could be OVER in a hurry. Both teams have powerhouse offences and defences that havent shown up yet...Last 4 Leaf games have gone over..Until this trend stops I will go with the over..
Also in a non hockey bet...The Falcons +4.5 is the lock of the year...The Public is on the Giants and its a big trap..Bet the Falcons heavy.
Zach6668
Monday, October 15th, 2007, 1:42 PM
lol ok
here's my book for tonight.
I'm a n00b so I'm just kinda messing around with some small amounts until I get a feel for it.
Leafs money line, +145, $3
I also took 7 random props from this game, lol.
- Race to 3 goals, TOR, +170, $1
- Leafs win by 2 goals exactly, +450, $1
- BUF win 5-3, +2800, $1
- TOR win 5-3, +2500, $1
- TOR win 4-2, +1200, $1
- Team scoring first does NOT win the game, +150, $1
- First period is highest scoring period, +210, $1
Should be fun, lol.
I'm gonna go to the casino tonight, play some 3/6 and watch the game.
Yay.
rinswun
Monday, October 15th, 2007, 2:11 PM
ok my bets for tonight:
£20. Over 5.5 goals in the Ana/Det match @ 2.4. JS looked good last night but it was his first game of the year so if he starts he'll likely be tired and if he doesnt Bryzgalov hasnt looked great this year so far. Combine that with the fact Zetterberg, Datsyuk and Holmstrom have been on fire thus far and i think you got a decent price for 6 goals.
£10. Regular time tied in the Tor/Buf game @5.1. No explaination here, just loved that juicy line.
No other lines really stood out for me this evening.

rinswun
Tuesday, October 16th, 2007, 1:56 PM
My bets for this evening:
£20 on Montreal to win in regulation time @ 2.22. Montreal are at home where they are generally pretty solid, they also have a great powerplay in spite of Souray leaving, with the added homer calls they should be good enough to win this one in regulation.
£10 on combined Wild/Canadiens victorys @ 2.86. Minny are the hottest team in the league, the Thrasher are the coldest. I dont expect anything to change in this one.

Montreal vs Florida under 5.5 goals, $25 to win $22.73.
Colorado over Calgary and more than 5.5 goals, $25 to win $52.44.
Minnisota to beat LA and under 5.5 goals, $25 to win $46.88.

Some bets I am considering tomorrow:
Nashville over Anaheim (2.42 payout).
Dallas vs Columbus under 5.5 (1.38 payout).
If the payout for Dallas - Columbus was a bit higher I would jump on it. I like Nashville just because of the payout.
I am avoiding betting on Devil's games until I get a better read for how good they are.
