    Alright gentlemen.  I have some information that might be of interest to you.

    I noticed the last few days, we were passing up teams who weren't quite -145 faves, but were beginning a 3 game homestand.  SJ last night...ANA and WPG the night before etc. etc. etc.  These teams were winning game A and it bothered me immensely as I wanted to profit off of them.

    So I decided to do some research.  I wanted to see exactly how precise this -145 line was to maximizing our returns on this system.  I started with the 2006-07 season, and used various different closing lines.  Here are my results:

    For lines equal to, or greater than:

    -110: 677-53   +239.22 units

    -120: 611-43   +255.82 units

    -125: 574-38   +260.12 units

    -130: 542-32   +277.68 units

    -135: 495-30   +247.20 units

    -140: 452-25   +245.50 units

    -145: 417-22   +235.28 units

    -150: 384-21   +210.54 units

    -160: 307-16   +174.84 units

    -170: 253-11   +162.14 units

    -180: 202-11   +111.14 units

    -190: 174-10   +91.4 units


    I stopped at -190 as I realized I was just cutting out more and more winners and less and less losers. As you can also see, playing any favourite in general has actually fared BETTER than favourites of -145 or greater!  Crazy.  Maximization apparently occurs around -130.  Not trying to undermine therizz, just doing my own homework here.  Hopefully he is not offended.

    So feel free to do what you guys want to but I'm personally gonna start playing favourites equal to/greater than -130, not -145, and for that matter any favourite of -110 to -130 who I think has a good 3 game schedule (for example they're playing CLB and NYI after game 1).

    All the best,

    The Man

    Wow great research The_Man!
    Must have taken a lot of time. I just starting something similar to this. Want to check out (1) yr by yr results (2) any correlation to road games thereafter (3) if A game won is chase, then results of fading for B/C game - as per Dussey's system.

    That actually is pretty interesting The_Man, good work.  I like the leeway this kind of knowledge gives when you make a bet early in the day and then the odds change so it's no longer official.  Do you still chase it or not?  Well, without knowing how series that started with other odds backtested, I would probably just write off the loss as a mistake bet, but now I might feel confident enough to chase anyway. 

    I'd be really interested to know exactly how betting puckline on all these series would work out.  With the vastly better odds, it could be at least as good as an underdog system if it panned out.

    Just found this thread, awesome job to OP and the_man. One question I have for the above back testing numbers. I am assuming those are Game A of a 3 game home stand? did you by any chance check if the 3 game chase works as well?

    Cape those look like chase numbers. NOT the results of just an A Game bet. If that was the case vegas would have caught on and made lines of -900 or so for that A game.
    In actuality A games hit about 58%.
    Best Chase results are when the A game is at -170 for 95.8%
    The Best chase (most units won) is 94.5% at -130
    And the -145 lines are 94.99%

    i've taken the op's suggestion and have been betting the puckline for lines that are -180 or higher. so far, none of them hit, but i ended up winning those series so its all good. my sample size is quite small since i just started using this system about 3 weeks ago so i dont know how much help this info is. i'll continue to bet the puckline on the high juice bets.

    i would also like to thank the_man for the research. i wonder if -130 has consistently been the best cutoff line in the previous years.

    I'm curious about one thing The_Man.  You show how many units would be won for each cutoff opening line to conclude that -130 is optimum, but that's assuming what kind of betting strategy?  Would also be good info to know.

    My apologies. Martingale betting strategy.

    LA -120 could be a play today.  I kinda like em.  Yes they face SJ and St. Louis game 2 and 3 should they lose today, but why they are favoured against a much better NSH squad is odd to begin with.  I feel like oddmakers know something I don't, and even if they happen to lose the first game, they play SJ next and St. Lou after, with both teams coming into LA on b2b road games.  Kings should win one of those.  They need points too in that tight ass playoff race.  Probably gonna play them.

    THIS YR if you are using therizz's system, but at -120 for the first game, then you would be -11.8 units.

    -130, in the long run, has been the best play (with the new research done by The_Man). I personally would not have played LA at -120 when their next two are against SJ and STL, even with the back to back. Both LA and SJ are fighting for a playoff spot and then STL (no thanks).
    Glad it worked out on the A game for all those who played it.

    @The__Man - How did you get the results for all these plays? Is there a website with all the data already avail or a program you used? Or did you do it the old fashion way of inputting everything manually?

    What do you think about a fade of the Ducks? They were red hot and now they are cold and need a miracle to make the playoffs. It seems they just can't win and have their tails between their legs.

    San Jose -180 no?

    Not so sure about that, plays <= -110 this year have gone 95-8.  Plays <=-120 have gone 82-6.

    That being said 6-8 losses is still high and if you're losing roughly 10 units per loss, not so great for overall units.

    -130? 67-3.  Pretty damn good.  Always remember the bigger the favourite the better :)

    quick question. i apologize in advance if someone already answered this. lets say there's a 4 game chase and the home team of the 1st game is an underdog.  should we count the next 3 games as a separate series as far as the system is concerned? for example, PHI is a -141 fav today (2nd game of a 4 game chase), but were a +120 dog yesterday, which is why the chase didnt start yesterday. im assuming that they can get a win against 1 of the upcoming teams (FLA, WAS, MON), but what do i know.
