Playing the Pens tonight over the Devils. 320 to win 200.00. Lost to Devils yesterday in Jersey while playing short handed 8 times. Also very likely that Martin Brodeur will rest tonight for Jersey and be replaced in goal by Johan Hedberg.

I htink Pens ended up playing more minutes short-handed than they did full strength.  Watched the game, never seen so many penalties, especially in the 3rd period.  There was some unusual line movement about 20 minutes before the game started, saw on another site where some were talking about a possible fix before the game even started.  Then all the penalties and I must say it had me thinking.  Not saying any truth to it but definitely made me go "hmmmmm"

Well I missed that one.  Been waiting for that game too.  Home and home back to back days.  Not sure what the Pens called themselves doing the last two games.

Started out CBB 2-6-1. Started following @Stuckey2 and @nropp on twitter and have been 9-5 since. 4-0 over my last 4. WORTH the follow, even though Stuckey is annoying, I promise.

Also playing Villanova +8 for 2 units

I;m loving that this thread is still going.

Hope you all keep it up this year. I'll still be trailing some of you in Basketball.

Cant wait for August.

Hooch

CBB I am 12-9 for the year.

Tonight I am going

Florida -10  I think they have been waiting on this game all year and its going to get ugly.

Michigan St +2.5  MSU undefeated at home and these teams aren't far apaprt

Georgia +2 Georgia has won 5 straight and Alabama is almost as bad as us on the road. 

 

Hawgndaaz

MSU moneyline just went to even. going to put some on it instead of +1

McKdaddy

Bad call on Michigan. Bad call. I've always liked Sparty at home -- who freakin' doesn't? But I went the other way.

My pick went awry also. ISU played badly and should have easily covered. CBB is very strange this year.

playing NHL tonight...

Picks for 2-13-13:

STL @ DET, Over (+110), 1 unit
OTT @ PITT, Under (-115) 1 unit

Parlay, 1 unit to win 3 units:
STL @ DET, Over
STL @ DET, DET ML

Ah man, don't put the pressure on me like that!  As you can tell with my huge bets I'm very confident in them....

/Sarcasm

Hawgndaaz

can't do college hoops. 

did end up adding Det ML, -120.

Stl will be starting an AHL goalie making his first NHL start.  think a 4-2 or 4-3 type of game here, with Det winning.

 

Hooch

14-10 in CBB this year 14-8 if you take out the two stupid teasers I did for gigs. 

I am going:

Miami -6 Probably the hottest team in America right now beat FSU by 24 less than two weeks ago, I don't think FSU home advantage is that large.

Vandy -3 Tenner two bad teams but going with the home team

Ole Miss -1 This line seems too good to be true to me so it probably is, but I am going with it anyway.

Miss St. +13 Mizzou is winless on the road in the SEC.  Miss St is bad but think they will keep it close. 

Honorable Mention: Syracuse -4

Hooch

OOOOOOOHHHHHHWEEEEEEEE.

I got my ass handed to me tonight.  I could not have been more wrong, not even close on them. 

Ah CBB   :'(

I am now 0-4 LIFETIME on CBB. I may try to get into a bracket type deal, but no more games stright up. I did see that home court advantage is about 4pts typically.

Tried warning you.  new to the whole hockey capping, still getting my feet wet. I do enjoy it much more than CBB though.  Not very good right now but hopefully with time I'll start to get better. 

Let ya know if I get hot lol, until then I'd fade my picks lol

Up to 14-13-1 on the year. Looking at Wiscy, CAL, and UALR tonight.

Hit Wiscy by a half. CAL is rolling, took UALR for a Troy pick that's coming down to the wire. 7-1 on the week is looking promising. By the way, it's difficult for me to post picks before the fact sometimes during tax season.

Tonight...


Arizona -2.5
Gonzaga -1
Heat +4.5


Az ranked 9th and I blew that one. Got the Zags and should have bet the house on the Heat.

LGHOG

Tonight...


Took Georgetown +4.5
Blues and Flames under 5.5

Hey Jeff. To me this is odd...about me. When teams from the Western Conf play they almost always go over, but every time I come so close to placing that OVER bet I stop. Then I kick my own arse. Take last night. Clips Lakers over. Heat and Thunder over even though Heat is EC. Why is it when most totals go over and I want to bet them I just can't do it? Gamblin...gotta love it.

Michael McDonald +275 - L
Dustin Portier -105 - L
Jimi Manuwa -225 - W

Single bet on Michael McDonald +275 - L

Did horrible this past weekend.  Hopefully will do better this upcoming weekend

Hawgndaaz

Well I don't bet NBA until playoffs generally and that's sporadic at best.  I used to when I enjoyed the league.  I hate betting the NBA more than any other sport, but a couple things to remember.

NBA = long season. Knicks have beat the heat twice this year, but doubt the would beat them in a playoff series. It's about Matchus that night.

Most importantly when it comes to betting the NbA is travel and schedule.  If an east coast team plays at home for an 8:00 pm tip off their time and then has to fly to the west coast the next day to play a game the following night look out. Crazy things happen.

Learn about teams Tavel habits and how they react. Will go a long way.

Hogs +1 tomorrow is a gold mine

not even close to a gold mine. lots of emotion on both sides of the ball. home court gives the hogs the advantage.

I like the hogs as a dog at home but not big. good bet, but nowhere near great.

Hawgndaaz

Wisconsin
Minnesota
Miami

all 2 unit bets


all star mvp bets:

Lebron +250   2u
Durant +300   1u
Harden +1000  3/4u

I got so lucky. Ended up grabbing 'em at -1 because my bookie sucks (basically) with the most money I've put on a game ever. I was so overwhelmed with nervousness, after the game, I busted it walking up the stairs in front of everyone. My hand started bleeding everywhere. It was ridiculous.

BC +1 tonight, looking a Mizzou +5.5 too.
