Another good site for breaking down matchups. They do football, basketball, baseball and college games as well.

You can sometimes find some good odds because they set them so far in advance that might not account for some key players getting injured but other then that your getting hosed.

If you are going to play here is a site that will take sports actions odds and compare them with what they should really be at. It will show you where there is value at least mathematically. http://www.prolineplayer.com/

Quasi,

The intervew with Poindexter taking the Atlantic Lottery corp for 1.7 million was a wicked story. Betting across all of Canada like that and getting those winnings. Awesome story

I ended up taking Baltimore +3 and a small wager on the under.
Figure it will be a tight defensive game.

Also took Carolina -9.5 over Arizona.
Carolina should steam roll over Arizona...

Good luck with your picks.

Yaaa.. I lost on Sports Action, but I won big from Sports Bookies online.
It's pretty dumb on the Sports Action tie game rule.
Sports Action is only for small bet, online bookies are for big bets.

Here is what I got for today on Sports Action:
NY Giants and San Diego x $20 bet
NY Giants, San Diego, NEW JERSEY (hockey), St Louis (hockey) x $10
San Diego, NEW JERSEY (hockey), St Louis (hockey) x $10

For people who bets on football, don't think teams that are good in regular season will be as good in the playoff. Playoff is a totally a new season for everyone. Underdogs will have less pressure and more incentives to play extra hard for bonuses than stronger teams. Good example like last year's New England, they haven't lost a game until the Super Bowl to underdog NY Giants. Like yesterday, two underdog teams won on Saturday. I am heavily bet on San Diego based on the winning I won from Arizona (500% profit from the win) yesterday.

Good luck everyone.

Yesterday winning on Sports Action:

Yup. Taking the points today. Took Phili and San Diego...

Baltimore looks like a great superbowl contender this year..

It's a tie. In basketball, a win by 5points or less is a tie. I know how you feel man, it sucks. I've encountered countless ties.

fuck im never betting on canucks again, every single god damn time i put them on my ticket i lose..

yesterday was the absolute -lock of the year- in the NHL, San Jose over Tampa who played the following night, i also took Calgary over SJ and then Van.. when of course van lost

my buddy in T.O playing proline took the same bets but rangers instead of Van and won 88 of $10 bet

Proline in toronto gives u so many more options for betting

i don't understand people that play sports action unless its like sports action toto...
the odds that sports action actually gives you are so much lower than what the betting websites give you, but if you guys are winning so much on sports action congrats...
but if you want a couple websites that give you better odds let me know...
and you can play proline even if you aren't in toronto...
