- 0:19Hello and welcome to episode 40 of the All Systems Go Sports
- 0:24Betting podcast Powered by Rhythm.
- 0:27I'm your host, Josh Applebaum. What's going on?
- 0:33Everyone happy Thirsty Thursday. Our week is winding down.
- 0:37The weekend is upon us, guys, and we continue to grind it out
- 0:40in the sports betting arena. And today is a big day because I
- 0:43tell you what guys every day when I wake up and basically it
- 0:47never starts. When you wake up, it starts
- 0:48from, you know, the overnight, overnight lines, seeing how
- 0:51movement immediately goes, how it develops.
- 0:54Morning, early afternoon. But I tell you what, there are a
- 0:57lot of games that I could play today and I tried to whittle it
- 1:00down to my top plays and I kept saying, hey, let's not force it,
- 1:04but I actually could have had more bets.
- 1:05I'm going to go with 7 bets for you today, guys.
- 1:08A7 pack on a big Thursday Thursday, including four Major
- 1:11League Baseball bets, one NBA play, which is a pretty good
- 1:15angle here from our friends at Rhythm.
- 1:18There's obviously only one game tonight in, or there's two games
- 1:21tonight. Cavs, Celtics, Mavs, Thunder.
- 1:23I'm going to focus on that Mavs Thunder game and also I got two
- 1:27NHL bets for you and they're both two of my favorite system
- 1:30matches which basically focus on a desperation spot.
- 1:33So maybe you kind of already know which way I'm leaning here,
- 1:36but A7 pack overall, big day here in the arena now looking
- 1:39back toward yesterday, A bit of a frustrating day overall 3 and
- 1:433 -, 0.76 units. The annoying part, Well, the
- 1:48good part was MLB continues to do pretty well.
- 1:50We got our finger on the pulse of MLB sometimes.
- 1:52I feel like I should only bet MLB and nothing else but as a
- 1:55sports better. I know you have your favorite
- 1:57sports but you never want to limit yourself in terms of money
- 2:00making opportunities. But baseball 2 and 1 grinded out
- 2:03another profitable day with with the San Francisco Giants and the
- 2:06New York Yankees. The only loss there was with the
- 2:09Rays. Ironically the Rays are a big
- 2:10favorite but once again that's how we bet to risk not bet to
- 2:13win. And then we did get a great
- 2:16rhythm bet the over in the Pacers Knicks game a buy low
- 2:19over 218 1/2. That thing sailed way over and
- 2:23remember rhythm was projecting a 220 1/2.
- 2:25So a little golf clap for our friends at rhythm for helping us
- 2:28cash that Pacers and Knicks over.
- 2:31But the frustrating games were in hockey last night.
- 2:34Now the Bruins I get it. You know he probably thought hey
- 2:37you know it's a good value play for Boston which I agreed and we
- 2:40had a juice reel edge. But you also have a very proud
- 2:43team with Florida down O1 at home can't go down O2 and go to
- 2:46Boston. So I get it.
- 2:48I'm actually proud of the Bruins for sending a message and
- 2:50fighting late. That game got pretty insane with
- 2:53all the penalties late in the game, but the most frustrating
- 2:55game of the night. So we're sitting pretty good
- 2:58going into the Lake game. You know, we got Edmonton, the
- 3:00Oilers on the money line against Vancouver.
- 3:03We're sitting three and two. So we're we're doing pretty good
- 3:06looking at a four and two night. The Oilers are up by two goals
- 3:10heading into the third period and then the Oilers completely
- 3:13implode. So the Oilers, Are you kidding
- 3:16me? Remember.
- 3:17Remember in ESPN, they still do. Come on man.
- 3:20Come on, man, Oilers 4 to 2 lead, you give up three goals.
- 3:23In the third, you lose 5 to 4. Stewart Skinner was a sieve in
- 3:27net and Edmonton couldn't get anything going, especially late
- 3:29when they pulled the goalie. So when you're up four to two
- 3:32going into the third in a playoff game, you feel like
- 3:34you're going to win that one. So that was a really bad beat
- 3:37and a very frustrating loss on Edmonton.
- 3:39But Edmonton comes through. I mean that's the that's the the
- 3:42thin red line, the razor wire that we walk every day.
- 3:45As sports betters, you know, one game can flip you from a winning
- 3:47night to a losing night or positive note a losing night to
- 3:51a winning night. But either way, guys looking to
- 3:53bounce back here today and see if we can have a good night on a
- 3:56big, thirsty Thursday. So with that being said, I want
- 3:59to start off with some Major League Baseball because I got a
- 4:04couple days sweats going. There's only seven games on the
- 4:06board, but I kind of liked all of them, so I'm just trying to
- 4:08limit myself to the best, most valuable plays overall.
- 4:12But the first one I'm going to rock with for tonight, Houston
- 4:15and the New York Yankees. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
- 4:18Going right back to the well with the Bronx Bombers can be
- 4:21New York here. The New York Yankees at home
- 4:23against Houston had a big win for us last night as the Yankees
- 4:28were able to cash relatively easily.
- 4:30Yankees ended up winning that game nine to four as a nice what
- 4:34do we get like -160 on that number.
- 4:36But anyway, pitching match up for today we have Ronelle Blanco
- 4:39going for Houston, who is 3 and O2 point O 9 ERA.
- 4:43He'll be opposed by Marcus Stroman 2 and one 3.41 ERA.
- 4:47But to me this is a value play on a good Yankees team with a
- 4:50relatively short chalk price at home and a bet against Houston.
- 4:54And I'm waiting for Houston to turn it around and look like the
- 4:56Astros of all. It's just not happening.
- 4:58So I'm going to go Yankees here. I like the line move toward the
- 5:01Yankees. The Yankees opened round a -,
- 5:03125 home favorite, and now we bet up to round -130 -, 135.
- 5:08So we have some movement in favor of New York now.
- 5:11A couple things I'm banking on. One is the offense of the
- 5:14Yankees. They have scored 185 runs this
- 5:16year versus only 158 for Houston.
- 5:20Yankees also have the much better bullpen.
- 5:22They're actually the number one bullpen in baseball, 2.31 ERA.
- 5:25Houston is a 4.71. That's 24th in baseball.
- 5:29And Houston's offensive numbers aren't terrible.
- 5:31It's really they're they're pitching their starters and
- 5:33their relievers that have really let them down this year.
- 5:36But we have a classic non division favorite system match.
- 5:38Lack of familiarity really being a benefit to the better team
- 5:42who's expected to win that would match with New York.
- 5:44NY's been good at home, 13 and five.
- 5:47Houston only 5 and 12 on the road.
- 5:49Yankees are plus 54 and run differential.
- 5:51Houston is -32 and then also have some good system matches
- 5:55here. Now I'm always interested in in
- 5:57finding little angles and cause of sports better.
- 5:59You're always trying to find any kind of angle that can help you
- 6:01win a bet. And I'm I was curious about,
- 6:04like, Thursdays in baseball. Because Thursdays are weird.
- 6:07You have a smaller than usual slate.
- 6:08It's getaway day. Some teams are off and I was
- 6:12wondering, hey, like, you know, what's the deal with Thursdays?
- 6:14Is there an edge one way or the other?
- 6:15Well, Thursdays are one of the best days to bet favourites,
- 6:18which makes sense. If it's a getaway day, maybe the
- 6:21cream rises to the top. But Thursday favourites this
- 6:24year are 30 and 1567% with a 15% ROI.
- 6:29And also, I was playing around last night, 'cause I have my
- 6:32system matches I lean on, then I always try to tweak them or try
- 6:34to uncover another edge. I found this system match, if
- 6:37you're a favorite in which the total falls at least 1/2 run,
- 6:42those teams are 116 and 5767% with a 14% ROI.
- 6:48So this total was as high as nine.
- 6:50It's down to 8, 1/2 or even 8. So angle here is, you know what
- 6:54the fear amount of expected run scored.
- 6:55They come from quote, more likely to come from quote UN
- 6:58quote the better team. So we always talk correlative,
- 7:00correlative betting in general. But I was in my database and I
- 7:03said, hey, what if the total actually does fall?
- 7:05Well, that's a good sign for that home team.
- 7:07Or for that favorite, I should say So a couple good matches
- 7:10here Thursday. Faves, faves with a total that
- 7:13falls. Better offense, better bullpen,
- 7:16home. Rd. splits.
- 7:17Really benefit. Yankees here.
- 7:18I'm going to go with the Yankees shop round.
- 7:20I got the Bronx Bombers at -130. Keep on cruising.
- 7:25I'll be fully honest with you guys.
- 7:26This place scares me to death. But I'm going to trust the
- 7:29market, which is something that you learn if you've been on
- 7:31sports long enough. The eye test or your bias may
- 7:34creep in and say, hey, what am I doing laying a -, 140 with the
- 7:38Saint Louis Cardinals, who've been terrible this year.
- 7:41Well, the Lions in moving in their favor, so I'm playing the
- 7:43Cardinals today. Cardinals are only 15 and 21 on
- 7:47the year. They're two and seven in their
- 7:49last nine. They're now facing the Milwaukee
- 7:51Brewers, who are 21 and 15. But they just did lose four of
- 7:56their last five. They fell to the Royals in the
- 7:58last game of that series, 6 to 4 as a plus one O 5 Rd.
- 8:01Dogg. The Cardinals just lost to the
- 8:03Mets. Seven to five is a -, 120
- 8:06favorite the other day. But for today's pitching match
- 8:08up, I think it's a big part of this really sharp line move
- 8:10towards Saint Louis. Like Saint Louis is razor sharp.
- 8:13You know, I'm worried because they're not a very good team and
- 8:15it's like, how do you not take Milwaukee, a good team at home
- 8:17plus money. But again, let's trust the
- 8:19market. Cardinals are going with Sonny
- 8:21Gray, who's been great four and one 0.89 ERA.
- 8:25Brewers are going with Tobias Myers.
- 8:27He's O and two with a 6.23 RA. So I get it.
- 8:31Gray's got way better stats here than Myers.
- 8:33But this is all about the line move and trusting the market.
- 8:35Because this game actually opened with some shops with the
- 8:40Cardinals actually has a dog like some books open.
- 8:42Milwaukee, like -120. Now it's flipped all the way to
- 8:45Saint Louis, -140. I mean, that's as big of a dog
- 8:49to fave line move as you're ever going to see.
- 8:50Tells us that a lot of respected money came down on Saint Louis.
- 8:53Now they're only getting basically 5050 tickets and again
- 8:575050. A line shouldn't move at all.
- 8:59Yet we're seeing this line steam toward Saint Louis.
- 9:01Only 51% bets to be exact, but 65% of money is on Saint Louis.
- 9:06And also a lot of system matches on the Cardinals Rd. favorites
- 9:09off a loss. They're 48 and 26 this year,
- 9:1265%. Thirteen percent ROI Same system
- 9:16match with that favorite with the total that falls.
- 9:18That just match with the Yankees.
- 9:19It does match with Saint Louis. That total is 8 1/2 down to 8.
- 9:23Now 7 1/2. That system match is 116 and
- 9:285767% and then also rest. First tired angle.
- 9:32The Cardinals were off yesterday.
- 9:33They were rained out against the Mets.
- 9:35Meanwhile, Milwaukee played on the road against Kansas City.
- 9:38So again, do I want to lay a -, 140 with a team that's six games
- 9:41below 500 and has looked just kind of like a dead team?
- 9:44The eye test in my gut, in my instinct, says no.
- 9:48But again, don't trust your gut. Don't trust your instinct.
- 9:51Go with what the market is telling you.
- 9:53So again, if Milwaukee wins, I'll be like, damn it, what the
- 9:55hell am I doing? But if Saint Louis wins and I
- 9:58don't play them, that's something I can't live with.
- 10:00So I'm going to go with this sharp line move.
- 10:02Say a prayer for the Saint Louis Cardinals.
- 10:04I'm on the Cardinals at -140. Keep on cruising Cleveland and
- 10:09the Chicago White Sox. I'm going to go with the
- 10:12Cleveland Guardians here. Not much of a surprise, but I'm
- 10:15going to fade Chicago, even though Chicago unbelievably beat
- 10:19Tampa Bay yesterday. I can't believe it.
- 10:21What an idiot I was. At least we always bet Tris
- 10:23versus bet twin. But I didn't want.
- 10:25I really always say I don't want to lay more than -200.
- 10:28And I was an idiot and I kind of played Tampa Bay because I like
- 10:31this team and again that was a loss.
- 10:33So what are we going to do? We're going to bounce back and
- 10:34hopefully get it back. Clawed back against the White
- 10:37Sox today so pitching matchup Cleveland they're going with Ben
- 10:41Lively. He's been pretty good one and
- 10:43one two point O 8 ERA. Eric Fetty is going for the
- 10:47White Sox two and O 3.46 ERA. But First off, we've seen some
- 10:51movement toward Cleveland. It's nothing huge, but they
- 10:53opened some shops around -140. You know there's highs around
- 10:57-150 now. So a little bit of movement in
- 10:59favor of Cleveland now. Cleveland is really good.
- 11:02Home Rd. splits. Cleveland's 12:00 and 7:00 on
- 11:05the road. White Sox are just five and 12
- 11:06at home. Cleveland's plus 41 run
- 11:09differential and you have the White Sox.
- 11:12We all know they're terrible, -89.
- 11:14Cleveland's got a way better bullpen 2.44 ERA verse 4.22 for
- 11:19the White Sox. We have some correlative betting
- 11:21value. Favorite low total told this one
- 11:23is 8. Again, fair amount of expected
- 11:25runs scored. More likely to come from quote
- 11:27UN quote that better team and then also system matches.
- 11:30So we just talked Thursday. Favorites 67% this year.
- 11:34Rd. favorite 61 percent 7% ROI and what I like to call
- 11:38operation fade CHW. Even though it didn't pay off
- 11:42yesterday because the freaking Rays just pathetic.
- 11:45How do you know, how do you lose at home against the White Sox
- 11:47anyway? Operation Fade White Sox 28 and
- 11:50976 percent, 17% ROI. So it also match with Cleveland
- 11:56and some shops are juiced under like 8 under -115 like it may
- 12:00get to 7 1/2 if that were to happen, but also qualify as our
- 12:05favorite with a total that's falling correlative betting
- 12:07play. So either way, guys, we got some
- 12:08movement, we got some system matches, and hopefully we get
- 12:11some revenge against the White Sox here.
- 12:12Today. I'm going Cleveland Guardians.
- 12:15I got the Guardians at -145, then last by the night for you,
- 12:20Kansas City and the Angels. I'm going to stay up late and
- 12:23sweat the sweat. The Kansas City Royals, I should
- 12:25say. So little background here,
- 12:28Royals. They've been a pretty good
- 12:29surprise. They spent some money in the
- 12:30offseason and they're pretty respectable.
- 12:32They're 22 and 16, although they did just lose or sorry.
- 12:35They took two or three against the Brewers.
- 12:37They won that finale 6 to 4 yesterday as a -, 120 home
- 12:41favorite. Meanwhile, the Halos.
- 12:43Remember, they start off pretty decent.
- 12:45Mike Trout got hurt. They struggled.
- 12:46They're 14 and 23 on the year. But they did just take two or
- 12:49three against the Pirates. They won yesterday 5 to 4 as a +
- 12:52115 Rd. Dogg.
- 12:54So pitching match up tonight. Michael Waka the righty one and
- 12:57four 5.5 OERA. He'll be opposed by Reed Detmers
- 13:01the southpaw for the Angels three and three 4.24 ERA.
- 13:05What are we seeing across the market here?
- 13:07Big move toward Kansas City. This game actually opened some
- 13:11shops, believe it or not with the angels as the favorite.
- 13:14Some shops open route like Angels -115.
- 13:17Well now we flip to Royals -110 -, 115.
- 13:21So dog to fave line movement very similar to that dog to fave
- 13:25we saw with Saint Louis telling the smart money here is going
- 13:28with KC, Casey is getting 75% of bets but 83% of dollars.
- 13:33So decent low bets, higher dollars bet split and a big
- 13:35steam move. A lot of system matches here
- 13:37that we've discussed. Kansas City Rd. favorites 61
- 13:41percent, 7% ROI this year. Thursday favorites 67 percent
- 13:4515% ROI. Also have a system match.
- 13:48Sweet spot Short Rd. favorites -130 or less 59% They're 61 and
- 13:5342 with an 11% ROI. Also have that non division
- 13:57favorite system match. Lack of familiarity benefiting
- 14:00quote UN quote, the better team. The Royals offense has been
- 14:03better. They've scored 175 runs versus
- 14:05154 for the Angels. They have the better bullpen,
- 14:093.87, ERA, verse 4.93, and then run differential which is just a
- 14:14rudimentary, you know, basically a number here to quantify how
- 14:18good or bad you are. Do you school more runs and you
- 14:19give up. Well guess what?
- 14:21Kansas City's plus 46, LA s -, 34.
- 14:24So this feels like a short number on KC.
- 14:26They have some line movement. They have a pretty good bet
- 14:28split lot of system matches. I'm going KC.
- 14:31I got the Royals at -115. So four pack here.
- 14:35Can we get three of them? Yankees, Saint Louis Cardinals,
- 14:39Cleveland Guardians and the Kansas City Royals.
- 14:42Now over to the NBA, now NBA. Last night shout out to our

- 15:28it a shot. Start making smarter bets today
- 15:31thanks to our friends at Rhythm. But Rhythm had a winner for us
- 15:34last night and they have another recommendation for us tonight.
- 15:37Now there are two games here. Cavs Celtics.
- 15:40I got nothing. You know it feels like the
- 15:43Celtics are going to roll. They're laying 13 1/2 thirteen.
- 15:46Although some books look like they might be falling to 13.
- 15:49So I don't want to play Cavs in the in the points.
- 15:52The total looks like it may be an under play.
- 15:54It did fall at some shops 213 after to do 212 1/2.
- 15:58But this is a unpredictable Celtics team.
- 16:01Maybe they'll blow them out the market saying otherwise.
- 16:03I just don't want to touch Cavs Celtics so I got nothing.
- 16:06Cavs Celtics I'm going to focus on Mavs and Thunder and I'm
- 16:10going to go with OK C to win the damn game now OK C is up one O
- 16:16in the series. Remember we got a pretty good
- 16:18-125 series price before game one.
- 16:21Now OK C is -220 in this line for tonight, a 930 game.
- 16:27Looking for OK C to take that to a lead.
- 16:29We've seen some movement toward OK C The Thunder open at some
- 16:32shops as low as -4 or -4 1/2. Now they're up to -5.
- 16:37So right off the bat the line is moving toward Oklahoma City.
- 16:40Now on the spread, 64% bet, 70% money is on OK C On the money
- 16:45line, 63% bet, 68% money is on OK C So line move and a low
- 16:50bets, higher dollars bet split on both the spread and the in
- 16:54the money line. But I'm going to focus on the
- 16:55money line here. Now it's it's a little bit
- 16:57expensive, but I was able to shop around and find a money
- 17:01line of -190 on OK C, So try to get below -200.
- 17:07Again, shop around, have those multiple outs.
- 17:09But here's why I like the money line.
- 17:11Number one is that playoff home favorites have been pretty damn
- 17:13good historically. In this year, playoff home
- 17:15favorites winning the game are 32 and 1371%.
- 17:21This postseason, that's a 5% ROI.
- 17:23OKC on the year is 33 and eight at home, One of the best home
- 17:27teams. They have the better offensive
- 17:29efficiency, third versus 7th. They have the better defensive
- 17:32efficiency 4th versus 16th. Also the deeper bench and the
- 17:37younger team here. I know Doncic is still young,
- 17:41but Doncic maybe some knee issues.
- 17:44It just seems iffy with Doncic. I also think the kids got to
- 17:47lose some weight. I mean I should be 1 to speak.
- 17:49I'm I need to lose some pounds too.
- 17:51But Doncic's knee is iffy to me. You've seen him like Grimace and
- 17:56you've heard about rumors of his knee having an issue.
- 17:58That just scares me a little bit if you want to back The
- 18:00Mavericks and I'm going to also put two other like pieces of the
- 18:04puzzle here why I'm going OK C money line one is that if you
- 18:10look at one thing that jumped out to me like I was watching
- 18:12the OK C Dallas Mavs game one. Obviously we got to play on the
- 18:16the Thunder money line doing the same thing here tonight.
- 18:19But if you noticed when the game was over, I believe it was ATNT
- 18:22game. But they they said they wanted
- 18:24to interview. I think it was SGA and the guy
- 18:27from TNT went over to interview SGA and it wasn't just SGA.
- 18:30He had his whole like starting line up, all his buddies around
- 18:33him. Chet was around him, Jalen
- 18:36Williams. I don't know if it's giddy or
- 18:38somebody else, but they just look like they're happy and
- 18:41they're having fun and it's easy when you win to be happy.
- 18:44But that just spoke to me. Like I don't really ever see
- 18:48when a guy gets interviewed after the game, the star of the
- 18:50game, that all of his team mates are around him and like just
- 18:54wanting to be there, wanting to be in the spotlight.
- 18:56Also the star player willing to share the spotlight.
- 18:59So that just spoke to me that like man, OK, CS got good mojo.
- 19:02Like they're they're a young team.
- 19:04Their togetherness and even I think when SGA he was like
- 19:09anyone else got something to say and I think it was Jalen
- 19:11Williams. He like barked like a dog like
- 19:13they're dogs or something. But I don't know maybe I'm
- 19:15grasping at straws maybe that's completely meaningless.
- 19:18But that just spoke to me. You don't really see that when
- 19:20they interview the the star of the game and all.
- 19:22He's got all his boys around him like hey we're we're A-Team.
- 19:24It's not me it's we. I just felt like that was a
- 19:26really good sign for Oklahoma City Thunder means they're a
- 19:29close knit team. And then the cherry on top is
- 19:32that we do have a rhythm projection recommendation and
- 19:35that is OK C Money line Rhythm is projecting a final score of
- 19:39111 to one O 6, which would land right on the 5 S laying.
- 19:43A5 don't really have an edge there.
- 19:44But on the money line it's got a recommendation for Rhythm from
- 19:49Rhythm that OK C will win this game.
- 19:51So I'm going to follow this rhythm recommendation.
- 19:54They didn't let us down. Game one, I hope they don't let
- 19:55us down. Game two I am on OK C Money
- 19:58line. Shop around.
- 20:00Win the game. OK, C at -190.
- 20:04Now over to the NHL Rough night. Last night my bees lost.
- 20:08The Oilers puked all over themselves, which was absolutely
- 20:10pathetic and disgusting. But I'm looking for a bounce
- 20:14back tonight in the NHL and I can actually have the same
- 20:17system on both teams tonight. So I'm going Carolina and I'm
- 20:21going Dallas. I'll tell you why I'm taking
- 20:22Carolina. Carolina against the Rangers.
- 20:24They're down O2 in the series. This isn't a huge line move play
- 20:28like basically Carolina open -165 -, 170.
- 20:32They pretty much stayed right there.
- 20:35But it is a system match play for me.
- 20:37So the system match here is a desperate experienced playoff
- 20:42team off a loss. So down O2 now going home.
- 20:46Teams who made the playoffs the previous year and are coming off
- 20:49a loss, they're 12:00 and 6:00 this post season. 67 percent 20%
- 20:53ROI. Now it's not just this year.
- 20:55If you look since over the last decade, this is a big sample, a
- 20:5810 year sample teams who made the playoffs the previous year.
- 21:01So you have the experience, desperate off a loss.
- 21:03They're 275 and two 1157% with an 11% ROI.
- 21:08So this just speaks to you know the grind of the playoffs.
- 21:11You've been there, done that. You flush the last game and you
- 21:13come back and win the next one. So I like Carolina to come back
- 21:17down O2 and be the desperate team who hopefully wins tonight.
- 21:20I have another system match on Carolina though.
- 21:22If you're a bigger favorite of -150 or more of this post
- 21:25season, those teams are 20 and 677% with an 18% ROI this
- 21:31postseason. So again, if you're a fave of
- 21:33-150 or more, you're winning 77% of the time in the playoffs.
- 21:37Also, I noticed that Carolina's going to change their goalie.
- 21:40Carolina's going to go with Kochekov who was 2.3 three goals
- 21:44against 9/11 save percentage. He's going to replace Frederick
- 21:47Anderson Chesterkin will still be in that for New York.
- 21:51He had a 2.58 and a nine thirteen save percentage in the
- 21:54regular season. He's been good in the
- 21:56postseason, 2 point O one and 929.
- 21:58But I'm wondering if that goaltending change will be an
- 22:01improvement and a message to the locker room for Carolina.
- 22:04And then also last one here is if you guys have never seen APNC
- 22:07Arena home game, got to give Carolina credit.
- 22:10You know the Hartford Whalers, which you know used to be in my
- 22:14neck of the woods as a New Englander moved to Carolina when
- 22:17was it? 2025 years ago.
- 22:19But they like their hockey in Carolina and they their home
- 22:22crowd is pretty insane. The PNC Arena home team home
- 22:27crowd that goes nuts has helped the Carolina Hurricanes at home.
- 22:32Let's see over the last three post seasons for Carolina when
- 22:36they are at home, they are 15 and 479% with a 30% ROI that
- 22:42includes 3 and O this postseason.
- 22:44So they've been great at home. They're desperate.
- 22:47They got to win. We got some system matches.
- 22:49Not a huge line move, but I'm going to go desperate off a loss
- 22:52and take Carolina. Shop around.
- 22:54I got Carolina at -165. Then last play of the night,
- 22:58Colorado, Dallas. I kind of hinted at it.
- 23:01System match, desperate, awful loss.
- 23:03I'm going Dallas Stars. Now this one is kind of more of
- 23:05a blueprint play because we do have a line move toward Dallas.
- 23:08They open around -120 -, 125. Now you're up to -130 -, 135 S
- 23:14The line is going toward Dallas. Remember, we cashed the ABS.
- 23:16Game one, but it wasn't easy. The ABS got down three O came
- 23:20back and won in overtime. So if you're down O1 you're at
- 23:23home. You can't go on the road down
- 23:24O2. But also Dallas is a pretty
- 23:27proud defensive team. A good team and I think after
- 23:30blowing a three O lead they're going to come out blazing here
- 23:32tonight. They're only getting 58% bets
- 23:35but nearly 70% of the money. It also match that playoff
- 23:38experience. Desperate off a losses to match.
- 23:41Made the post season last year. Come back this year if you're
- 23:44coming off a loss 12 and 667% Also you look at the
- 23:49goaltenders. Now Georgie have got the win in
- 23:52game one but on turns the better goalie in the post season 2.15
- 23:56goals against 9/15 save percentage.
- 23:58Georgie have 2.94 goals against 895 save percentage.
- 24:03So I'm really going to bank on the the Dallas Stars to come
- 24:07back play well tonight system match you know really kind of
- 24:11show some grit after blowing a three nothing lead.
- 24:14I think they even up this series.
- 24:15I'm going with Dallas and the line is moving in their favor.
- 24:18I got Dallas at -135 so that about does it.
