Arrow NHL playoffs Best Bets - Wed 4/9/2008

I will do a daily recap of each days action. 10 units is the max/game.

Sorry but i will not count parlays, only straight up selections.

unit size will be the risk amount

if you risk 2u on +150; gain 3u if win, down 2u if loose.
if you risk 2u on -130; gain 1.54u if win, down 2u if loose.

good luck!

please let me know for any corrections and give me a line for the game it will make calculations easier for me

hope thats supposed to be a joke considering he laid 1500 on sundays game and won saying if he lost he was sitting the playoffs. and he also finished the season up 114+ units in which he did in just 4 weeks. So i doubt its fake money.

Post my plays later just seen that comment and i had to comment as irked me a bit.

No one's betting anything in this thread. This is simply words; "free money," since there's no real dollar staked on these outcomes. I'd bet most actually follow through with their "best bets," but who in the world bets 10 units on multiple outcomes on a nightly basis? No one. Where's the strength variation in the bets? Every game is worth 10 units? I don't think so.

Aight point taken.

But Im sure everyones unit of plays are different.

Some nights a 5 unit play for me is 50 bucks per unit. Where other days Ill put 500 on one game and call it a 5 unit play.

Sundays game Rangers Devils I marked it at a 7* game in the best bets thread, but I only put 125 on the game. Where in the exact same thread I put SanJose/Dallas Over 5 and I put it as a 5 unit play and I bet 200. Both winners. Sometimes I put plays in the thread and dont bet them or later in the day Ill bet the other team and not update the post.

My units dont stand for value. Being the highest Units we are allowed in this best bets thread is 10. The closer my Units are that I Post the stronger I feel of them winning. So I look at it that way for j$ WestWide xxx illusion LT and so forth. So in my mind a 10* play could mean $100 total with each unit being $10. But 10* is the max in this thread. So whatever amount of money 1 unit is to him or someone they are laying the max they can on that bet.

Maybe Im wrong in thinking it as the units as a 'strength' indicator, but I doubt he or anyone that comes and posts daily is playing with fake money esp when they post how they need a win badly to bring them back or ask for opinions before a game and saying how they are going to risk it all or sit out the rest of the playoffs.

In no way and Im trying to come off as a d1ck or sound like im talking down to you or anyone else here. So dont take what Im saying here personal or what not.

Screenshot of the plays I mentioned above. Showing units of 5 and 7 have different values.

HMM.. are u a joke or what. I understand maybe your season didnt end the way you wanted there lamo but mine did. I regularly lay 25% of my bankroll on the line daily and still come ahead almost always. Maybe your a little butt hurt u didn't win the yearly thread or whatever but who cares. My plays will always be 10 units which to me means I'm betting to win $200 most of the time. I don't let my bankroll build I'll cash out before it gets over 2 gs. Maybe you're just a typical losing player ranting cause you always lose whatever the case I dont care. I made it pretty clear if I didnt win that Detroit game I was out for the playoffs at that point I was only up $700 for the year and I didnt want to risk losing that. Thats pretty funny to make that statement and not even have money on a game. As for my entire (entire NHl season I finished up $2200 for the year. I'm up NOW 5600 all sports combined. Let me tell u one other thing clown I have a family and I wouldnt phucking waiste my time here browsing none the phucking less posting picks if I wasnt gambling you degenerate and I phucking definately wouldnt put up so many ranting post about how pist I am I just lost money on a game if I didnt. You put up maybe the dumbest post today I've ever seen. and we all know why its cause I do so good and u see 4 games up there posted from me. Or maybe your just mad I won 3200 fading the Tigers like U should have. Any case go phuck yourself your a joke. You serve no purpose here no one cares about your picks. I made all my NHL picks yesterday by the way when I capped them which didnt take me long. I really dont care what 10 units is to you mother phucker. Hey maybe I got to +114 units by accident right. This my last statement on this clown... 10 units can be $5000 to one person and $300 to another.
