Took a couple football teasers along with my hockey action today - I don't like anything else except toronto and atlanta - maybe one of you over/under gurus can talk me in to something on that side of the ledger but I don't have the time really to crunch numbers, I have to referee this afternoon.

Here's my football plays, moreso to make the games interesting than anything.

Good luck

Got my ass kicked yesterday with the leafs and panthers coming up short....oh well it happens. I like the Sabres and Jackets tonight and hopefully see a ton of goals scored.

I took the following:

Columbus -1.5 over NYI risk .5u to win 1.185u **LOSS** -½u
CLB/NYI over 5.5 risk 1u to win 1.03u **WIN** +1.03u
Buf over NJ risk 2.2u to win 2u **WIN** +2u
BUF/NJ over 5.5 risk 1u to win 1.14u **LOSS** -1u
Salami over 16.5 total risk 2.44u to win 2u **WIN** +2u

and in football I took the Steelers +7.5 and the over 30.5pts, risking 2.2u to win 2u **LOSS** -2u

Overall won 1.53u

Stupid redskins 0 even the announcers are saying KICK the field goal when they were on the 14y line late.....ah well, whatever.

Well, it'll either be a bloodbath for one of us and a good night for the other - orrrrrrrr we'll split and the books will make the vig....good luck either way wink.gif

I am on Columbus though. However on the under
I am on New Jersey
and the Salami under.

not sure what sort of a footbal bet that is..Assuming its a teaser however the current line is plus 2.5 over 38..SO not sure how you teased that one..

Unfortunately(probably for me) I am on the opposite of that too..I really like Washington -2.5 and I am teasing Washington +4 UNDER 44.5

Even though we dont agree..Good luck

The salami so far so good...Of course now that I say that its a lock for 6 quick goals.


Thanks serge smile.gif Can you please also make a comment about Weeks playing well, and the Redskins while you're at it biggrin.gif
One of these days you'll learn

you are welcome...by the way I am so confident Big Ben will have a bad game...I will say it here...Go Skins...

My action for tonight:

2.5u on Washington - Ottawa OVER @ -130 **LOSS**
2u on Anaheim - Los Angeles OVER @ -115 **LOSS**
2u on Nashville - Vancouver OVER @ -105 **LOSS**
1u on NY Rangers - NY Islanders UNDER @ -130 **WIN**
troyomac
3u NYI +1.5 @ -105 Win
2u Was-Ott under 5.5 @ +115 Win
1u Van -1.5 @ +180 Won
1.5u Phx-Cal under 5.5 @ -135 Lose
1.5u Min-SJ over 5.0 @ -120 Lost

And my fun gamble for the night,
$15 on Anaheim to win by 5 or more at +3000 Not even close

edit: added 2u Van/Nash over 5.5 @ -120 Lost

Not a bad day. 3 out of 7, but made money. 1 more goal in the SJ game would have been sweet.
bdc30
Early action:

Car/Tor under 5.5 total risk 1u to win 1.15u **LOSS** -1u
Car over Tor, risk 1u to win 1.24u **WIN** +1.24u
Wash/Ott under 5.5 total risk 1u to win 1.25u **WIN** +1.25u
Parlay SJ and ANA both -1.5 goals, risk 0.5u to win 3.4u **LOSS** -0.5u
Good luck guys

-edit took Nash for 2u over Van to win 2.78u in the late game **LOSS** -2u
MapleLeafpoker
1u Car/Tor under 5.5 +105
1.5u Was to beat Ott +105
1u Ana/LA over 5.5 -120
1.5u Nas/Phx over 5.5 -110

good luck guys

Congrats to ex-Bruins prospect Nate Thompson on his first NHL goal for the Islanders!

So Arp, Troy, and BDC all bet the under in the Ottawa/washington game on their own accounts, but no one would back my play to bet it for the RTE?????????? What is going on here?????

I didn't see it on time.
bdc30
I don't have the info to back up most of the crap I'm doing at this point in the season - that game easily could have been 6-4 and nobody would have been surprised I don't think. I think we're a little gunshy now too. Plus, I'm betting 4 or 5 things a night, hoping to win more than I lose, but moreso just doing it to make the games more interesting....I thought the RTE goal was not to do that. (also both zach and ajs were commenting earlier in the thread that the game would be a "barn burner", so I didn't think we could get a consensus)

I'm starting to get seriously fed up.

0/4, 5 units lost in total last night.

wow, did this turn bad in a hurry.
I went from 5units, to 25units, to 5 units, in about 3 wks.

I'm at a complete loss right now, beyond cold.

I'd also like to point out I had Brodeur in one of my big $ pools.
So all around shitty day for hockey.

I think I'll watch the Raptors tonight.

thanks.

I'd bet anything Weekes will get a shutout.
I got outbid in my hockey pool free agency for his services, after losing Brodeur.....so now he will rub it in to me by getting the SO.....when it rains, it pours.

I dont think its a coincidence that Weekes's reign starts at the same time as Obama's.....

At this point I don't know what I can do except laugh. How can I pick 2 winners and two over/unders and get all four picks wrong?

LOFL.

If St. Louis wins and the total goes under tonight, I'm officially declaring tomorrow Bizzaro day and betting every ridiculous thing I can think of.

Tampa to beat the Rangers? All over it.

St. Louis beats San Jose at home? You bet your life.

Philly-Ottawa game under 5.5? Sign me up.

If nothing else it will make this shit fun again, LOL.

AJS don't worry you will bounce back Ive seen your picks and sometimes it goes the other way. You're smart for lowering your bet size and waiting this bad run out you will get back on the plus. A word of advice Vegas is getting smarter keep an eye on the lines and if something seems out of whack side with Vegas.

Good Luck with the last game over hope it starts off a nice run for you.

Everyone is a little gun shy today. My best bet of the day is the Avs my final game of fading the Wild if it hits I will be 4-1. My other play is SJ-Blues under 5.5. Iam just betting those 2 and cheering for the RTE to go 2-0.

just added Tor-Bost 1st period tie +155 great odds on that. Also took the game under Leafs should be going under soon and it might be my next 5 blind bets Leafs under.
