A Word on the Profitability of Spread Betting in the NHL Playoffs

June 8, 2016

If you’re thinking about betting the NHL playoffs in the future, know this: when in doubt, take the underdog with the spread. Before getting into some statistics that support this notion, I want to explain the theory first. The NHL playoffs are widely regarded as the most competitive postseason in the four major sports, and it’s really not up for debate. For instance, only four of the past sixteen President’s Cup trophy…

How to Bet Game 7 Between Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay

May 26, 2016

Over the past five years or so that I have really followed playoff hockey, I have noticed a few things about Game 7’s that I want to share with you today given that the Penguins and Lightning will play in one tonight. I’m really excited about this because of all the betting knowledge I have (or wish I had, lol), I’m very confident with my Game 7 hockey bets because, for…

NBA Playoff Predictions- May 25th

May 25, 2016

*Record 9-9* And just like that the series is tied up at 2-2. Who would have thought that the Raptors, after looking hopeless in Game 1 and 2, would win the next two to even up the series? I know I didn’t and chances are 90% of you reading this didn’t to. But if your a fan of competitive basketball, you have to love it. Hell, I want this series to go…

NBA Playoff Predictions- May 24th

May 24, 2016

*Record 9-8* Because of time constraints this article may be a little shorter than usual. I actually debated skipping my predictions for today because of my busy schedule, but then I remembered my motto of “no days off.” Here we have a very succinct, and to the point, playoff prediction for tonight as the Warriors look to even the series after getting embarrassed in Game 3. Golden State Warriors @ Oklahoma…

NBA Playoff Predictions- May 23rd

May 23, 2016

*Record 8-8* And just like that, pressure is on. For me, of course, not for the Raptors or Cavs. I have yet to dip below .500 the whole playoffs and here I am with my back against the wall. So, let’s see how I fair tonight as we have the Cleveland Cavaliers out for vengeance after losing a physical Game 3 to a hungry Toronto Raptors’ team Cleveland Cavaliers @ Toronto Raptors The…

NBA Playoff Predictions- May 22nd

May 22, 2016

*Record 8-7* I’ve been real streaky with my predictions thus far. I go on a little win streak, then I go on a little losing streak. But hey, that’s life. So, in an effort to stay above .500, here is what I think will happen tonight as the Golden State Warriors travel to Oklahoma City, with the series tied up at one a piece. Golden State Warriors @ Oklahoma City…

NBA Playoff Predictions- May 21st

May 21, 2016

*Record 8-6* I’m going to try and make this one short and sweet, because I think it’s evident that the Raptors just do not have enough firepower to compete with the Cavs. Lowry and DeRozan are all-stars, but LeBron James and Kyrie Irving are superstars. The Cavaliers are a level up on the Raptors on just about every facet of the game and its shown thus far. Toronto is a young and…

NBA Playoff Predictions- May 19th

May 19, 2016

*Record 8-5* After being embarrassed in Game 1 and losing by the biggest deficit in playoff history, I’d like to think the Raptors will come out guns blazing and determined to win in tonight’s game. I mean, at least I hope so. I’m just unsure if Toronto even has enough talent and poise to compete with the Cavaliers on this type of stage… Toronto Raptors @ Cleveland Cavaliers The Cavs…
