    Crap. wild win in OT.

    Not a bad start for NHL betting though. I usually don't bet NHL much until the last 1/3 of the season but this new schedule format changes things a bit when teams play each other so often and back to back.

    Have taken a run at 7 parlays so far this season

    Really good month for me, just starting doing more hockey. Hopefully February is as good to me as January was.

    IDK how this is even possible to score as much as they did. 48 points in the 4Q?!? I haven't watched NBA for a year or two, but damn.

    What SB plays are y’all looking at? For me:

    Bucs ML +220
    Fournette leading rusher +210 (boosted)

    Also mulling over: Gronk anytime TD (+225), Barrett over 0.5 sack (+120)

    NBA definitely looks a lot more exciting. And still shows that you only have to watch the last couple minutes. I used to love Sundays. I'd spend all day sorting my pokemon/football/basketball cards and watching NBA on ABC.

    Apparently DK had an outage/issue Saturday afternoon. Didn't affect me or I didn't notice, but I still contacted them to complain and they gave me a free $50 bet. Just tell them you tried to place some bets Saturday afternoon but couldn't, and you should get a response pretty quickly. Should you feel bad about making up a story to take some measily free bets from a multi-million dollar sportsbook? Nah.

    Responded quickly. No free bet, it appears.

    Damn that's a bummer. They may be catching on since I got this tidbit from reddit. I've also tried this when they had issues before and got no free bets while some buddies did get it.

    I almost exclusively do ML for in-game betting but recently I've found great success at trying to set up in-game middles. It makes watching the end of games kind of ridiculous but I like it

    Canadians and Lightning win handily, Bruins come from down 3-0 to win...The Flames are down 1 heading to the third...be nice if they could pull it out since it is Venmo payday tomorrow.

    And I will say Bookmaker being weird with live tennis lines, some matches have individual games. Most don’t. I don’t get it. I’m going to go and try BetOnline. Leave most my money on BM and move some to BOL

    He usually posts qualifying plays in this thread, as they pop up. CBB was a lot of 2nd half totals.

    I wish I had the skills to scrape data/automate my “formula” for CBB. Having to type it all in by hand for the 50+ games makes me not run it as much.

    I wish I could do that as well.

    The information that I sitll have to do by hand is enter Team Name, 1st and 2nd Half Score, and then the final lines and everything else auto populates. Still takes so much time

    Yeah, on the days where there’s like 20 games it’s whatever but I rarely even bother now when there’s 100 games on a Saturday.

    I’d really like to mess with some NHL stats soon and try to put something together.
