here's a play for tonight in the NHL

its a sportsparlor angle

Favorite ATS but a dog on the ML

Flyers are -1.5 ATS but are a +100 on the ML

This is usually a good angle it is not perfect but it wins way more than it loses

I am waiting to see if Columbus wins tonight because there is an angle I am looking at and they are the team that falls under it.

I make no secret about it I have no problem with responsible use of marijuana and alcohol, and having chronic pain and slight glaucoma and would like to get a medical marijuana card but they don't allow that in this state  and I'm not going out of my way to get in trouble, too many people counting on me.  I stopped the pain meds because they were addictive and took their toll on me physically.  It took me 2 years to recover from taking hydrocodone and morphine and I dont recommend the use of either.  
If it's a medical marijuana card you need then let me suggest the great Pacific Northwest. They hand those out like candy here in Oregon and Washington. The weather isn't as bad as advertised. We get snow here in Portland around 4-5 times a year. Usually it's not much but if it just snows 1/100th of an inch they will cancel school. That's not a joke I'm serious. They say the roads are too slick. The rain isn't as bad in Portland as it is in Seattle. We get about 35-40 inches a year. Slightly more than the Bay Area on average. What I don't like about the weather here in Portland is the cloudy days in the Spring. That sucks. But when it's nice it's like heaven. July-October is typically your best weather months. People are great, it's beautiful relatively low crime. I live in Beaverton a suburb of Portland better know as Nike Town because Nike is headquartered here. Portland is seeing a sharp rise in gang activity. Once again the drama from Cali has infected another state. The problem was nipped in the bud after the 90's but because of all the cutbacks the resources to fight this have dwindled and now gang activity is on the rise again. Most of the gang problems tend to stem from Hispanic gangs from Cali bringing their beefs up here. Not that it matters what race they are but I'm just pointing out the situation. Another state you might want to consider is Colorado. It's very nice there especially Colorado Springs or Southern Colorado. Lots of sunny days but you will have some snow during weird times of the year. But Colorado has a high percentage of sunny days. Good luck in your search. I know it sucks being someplace you don't want to be. I know the feeling.

I have 3 strong plays for the NHL tonight!
 Rangers-St.Louis Under 5 These are 2 of the best Defensive teams in the league. Take the Under and Cash in

Philadelphia Over Montreal- Flyers have won 6 in a row. Montreal is just average this year. 

Upset special-Winnipeg Over Washington- Winnipeg plays great at home. Washington is a poor road team. Winnipeg is pumped up so I like them in this spot.
Good luck to everybody and I hope we make some money today and keep these streaks alive.

Smooth what is the coldest it gets there and how long does it stay at its coldest.  I have heard it is nicer than the area gets credit for.  I can handle most weather but here we get below zero with everything turning to ice for months.  This year has been mild so far, thank goodness.  I know I will have to relocate one day  for my knees and my sanity .  lol

I love Las Vegas.  I've been here since 1987.  Been in my house for 6 years.  Have great neighbors.  Parks within walking distance.  Tons of parks in the Green Valley area.  Golf year round.  If you don't mind the heat,  (dry heat of course)  ha ha.   Which I don't mind at all.  Winters are mild.  Great restaurants,  shopping,  Water ski in the summer,  snow ski in the winter.  4 hour drive to california beaches. 

What the hell happened to you here,  Smooth?

I have a little one,  not quite school age yet.  So will figure out the school thing soon enough.  This town exploded with growth,  they couldnt build schools fast enough.  I feel it will get better because there has been a lot of talk about it. 

I honestly havent been to the strip in over 5 + years.  There is a casino 5 minutes down the highway that I can go and play,  (Green Valley Ranch)  I don't see smut,  person,  or any drug dealers trying to get me to buy anything.  It has everything any casino on the strip has,  including shopping,  restaurants,  spa, etc. 

When is the last time you heard of a natural disaster happening here?  No tornadoes,  hurricanes,  hell,  it hardly rains here!  They say there could be an earthquake sometime,  I've never felt one here.  They say we've had em,  though.  Nothing major. 

I have good friends,  they have normal jobs,  no,  everyone here doesnt work at a casino.  If you're gonna hang out on the strip,  then you're gonna run in to the smut,  person,  hustlers,  etc. 

Anyway,  if you ever are here,  I will gladly show you the good side of Vegas.

Green Valley is nice and so is Summerlin. Although if you put a pistol to my head I would choose Green Valley but it's still Vegas and that's the problem. The only schools worth dirt in Vegas are the private schools. Don't take my word you can research it. I hardly ever went to the strip when I lived there. We lived on the East side of town not far from Sam's Town. It was an ok neighborhood. The smut was all over. You probably wouldn't see it in Green Valley but it was in other parts of town for sure. I submit Exhibit "A" about Las Vegas  https://health.yahoo.net/articles/depression/photos/saddest-cities-in-america#10 That's right Las Vegas is the #1 most depressing city in America. I'm not the only one that hates sin city. My Mom asked me one day what did I like most about living in Las Vegas. I told her flatly "Getting on a airplane and leaving" Love to visit but I simply don't want to live there ever again.

This is the coldest time of year for us out here. December and January. We get a little snow nothing like you're probably used to. The coldest it's gotten at night was 19 degrees last night. Days top out in the low to mid 40's. We haven't hit zero since I lived here. I think the coldest it's gotten was around 8 degrees a few years back. But when it's sunny man I'm telling you it's God's Country when it's nice.

I looked at the link and the write up on St Petersburg, FLA  I thought was funny.  Crazy how many people on anti depressants.  Don't understand how PA stayed off that list as bad as is seems to be getting.  I have never been to Vegas or Oregon but would like to see both one day.

Some of the streaks on sportsparlor are getting out of control.  I guess the way to bet is whatever they put up in hockey bet the +1.5

I like NJ tomorrow and Ottawa/Pitt over

not much on the board for Friday

The Favorite ATS but dog on the money line won again.  I have only seen this angle lose one time and it was Ole Miss to La Tech in college football

thank you

No problem, I don't take anything personally on the internet, it's tough to interpet printed responses,lol.

Key numbers in football is any common number that a game can win by. 3,7, 10,13,14,17,21,etc. also with point totals there are more common totals than others. Like 46 is uncommon for a game to end with this total pts. 41 and 43 are  much more common. I have a great handicapping book that gives all percentages on totals and margins of winning. With football you have to look at the numbers a lot, I bet more totals than sides, becuase totals aren't as sharp in nfl as sides usually are.

at the Mirage PATS while staying at -6.5 went from -110 to a -115 
at -6 and then went to -6.5 and -120

are these examples of following the juice

YES. 6 is a key number also. 3,6,7 will be the most key numbers that carry the extra juice, cause the books don't want to move off these numbers unless they positively have to. They'll just keep raising the juice. If your thinking off betting these games then I'd monitor them and see how they change by kickoff. What is always suspicious is the favored team and their even or plus money.

Boo, I like it here. I'm from NY, so I know how miserable the winters are.It was part of the reason I moved here. It's different than the northeast. Here everything is walled off, like every apt complex and development and most have security gates to get in.Was a bit strange to me as ny isn't like that. You have to understand theirs a hi illegal immigrant population out here and even more so in arizona and cali.

Cost of living is cheap and no state income tax.Lots of great housing deals since economy tanked. This is also one of the higher unemployment states since 2008. Theirs bums and gangs here to, but the gang stuff is in north vegas and east side. Westside and south are nice, I live in southwest. Just a heads up on the real vegas,lol. If you want to know any more,just ask.

I have to agree with some of what smooth said.I'm single, have a parttime job,play poker 30-40 hours a week,bet sports also, so my perspective is different from a family person. I agree the local school system sucks.I have a freind who's 2 kids are in private school.

Those porn boxes are on most street corners on the main drags only,not every block in vegas. This is a more transient town now than it used to be, from what a freind told me that lived here in the early 90's and still lives here. Yes the cops here take no shit, they shoot first. The drivers here are the absolute worst, most are asian or from cali or both and have no clue. Pedestrians walk like they don't care if they get run over and yes they get run over a lot out here. But yes I like it!

That article is a little misleading. I like it here, It's not my problem if people have mental issues and can't handle life or gamble everything away in the pit games. Most situations, good or bad, people put themselves into. Me, I'm a happy person!

3 feet of snow and everything covered in a sheet of ice can be pretty depressing in the middle of a northeast winter.lol

Right on Plisskin!  I've never had any luck at sftc.  Hopefully I can get something going over there.

That's funny Plisskin but very true what you're saying. Most people do put themselves in those situations.

Does anybody have any info on Mount Union-Wis Whitewater as far as spreads go. I know these teams are dominant and are playing for the 7th straight year for the Championship. I'm getting conflicting info on the line though. Bodog which changed their name Bovada BTW has the game listed but no line as of yet.

Sportsparlor is easy...I haven't been on it but I'm like 8-0 on this angle...it's when I do anything else I fuck up.

When the technically better nhl team is underdog in a matchup (+1.5) put your money on that team to cover the spread.

Simple. And half the time they just win outright anyway.
