it all comes down to what you have work on for yrs and know the numbers imo.
I can't remember where I learned it but as a general rule I've been taught....Lay high favorite odds on games that don't land often on the lose by 1 is a losing formula. Look at the data its a sucker bet. Insurance and the illusion of safety.
Over time it nets you the same profit/loss if you do it long termI can't remember where I learned it but as a general rule I've been taught....
Never take the DOG RL (or puckline). If you like the Dog enough, just go ML.
I've occassionally done DOG RL's but its rare. I think in general, if you want Dog RL just take the ML. There are no absolute rules in betting.Over time it nets you the same profit/loss if you do it long term
Just like if you’re looking at the favorite RL/ML
i'm definitely keeping this in mind for next time, just to see whats up. i'm open to advice cause i never bet nhl reallyI've occassionally done DOG RL's but its rare. I think in general, if you want Dog RL just take the ML. There are no absolute rules in betting.
Wish I had the source that taught me that years ago. I guess we can check via back-testing data to see if the results have changed.
well the best advice is prolly to just never gambleI've occassionally done DOG RL's but its rare. I think in general, if you want Dog RL just take the ML. There are no absolute rules in betting.

There’s good intuition behind it. If you like something prolly gonna take the MLi'm definitely keeping this in mind for next time, just to see whats up. i'm open to advise cause i never bet nhl really
On this we are in 100% agreement. Beating the closing line is an important measure over time of how you are performing. If you're not beating the closing line (or line movement) you are a losing bettor.You win at gambling long term by consistently beating line movement
Getting a ML at +195 before it gets to +175
Getting a +1.5 at -135 before it gets to -145
THAT is how you win. Flat betting one way is just going to get you to the same place over the long haul
Hawks very well could win tonight, but other times they gonna lose by 1. All evens out (basically) in the long term.
Btw I don’t want my point to be that RL > MLOn this we are in 100% agreement. Beating the closing line is an important measure over time of how you are performing. If you're not beating the closing line (or line movement) you are a losing bettor.
This should be intuitively obvious. If your bets are on the wrong side of the line movements or closing line, you've given up opportunity/value. We all know the public, in general loses, so if you're behind the public, as far as line movement, you're an even bigger loser (so to speak).
Or have helped some of us out a lot.Jags have screwed a lot of ppl lately
Haha good point HeadsOr have helped some of us out a lot.
