Hump Day Picks
I’d like to start off by congratulating HEY JIM for breaking the slump last night, going 2-0 on his over/under and ATS picks. Congrats HEY JIM, you’re still valued here at the Edge.
Moving on. For the first Prop bet of the day I like a hockey pick:
Vancouver vs. New York – No Goals in First Period – Odds 13/5
This game will display the current top two goalies in the NHL. Lundquist hasn’t let up more than 2 goals in a game this season. Forgetting skill and just using probability, assuming he allows up to 2 goals tonight the odds of both of them occuring in the 2nd and/or 3rd period are 60%. Luongo was weaker early on but has not allowed more than 2 goals in his last 5 games (allowed 2 in one of them only). Basically what I’m saying is that I would expect the odds of this bet to be around 2-1 but we’re getting 2.6-1.
Utah Jazz to Win by 10-13 Points – Odds 4/1
Jazz play the Timberwolves tonight. They should win, this seems to me like a good margin of victory.
Unfortunately my good friends over at TradeSports have decided to shut down their exchange. That’s too bad, I was doing well over there. Maybe all those traders will start to populate the yoonew exchange. Sadly enough, this means there will be no TradeSports pick of the week. So I introduce to you the “random pick an obscure college football player prop bet” pick of the week.
Antonio Brown – Under 7 Receptions -125
Ball St. will just play too tough a D for him to get over his 6.7 avg.
