as much as i hate to admit it, they are playing well.
as a pretty good sports betting handicapper, i still would not wager anything more than a dollar on them making the dance.
with a team that likes to start like this one, injuries will happen. |

| i did something i shouldn't of, and played them for the win on proline and won my ticket totaling only 30$. I always have the beginners luck then wont win any tickets for months to come, although i was 3/4 last night, its mostly luck ;p |

| winning 30$ on a bet is like having sex with the prom queen by looking at pictures of her in the yearbook...go big or go home:p |

| haha ur correct.(last 2-3 years they've really lowered the payouts) maybe i should start playing those 5$ football pools, some dude last week won $750,000 :} 14/14 |

i'm not going to say i'm the best at sports gambling in the world...but i do ok.
pro tip: never bet on games that you have an emotional investment in. no matter how much you think that you can refrain from being biased...if you are a big fan of any team that you are betting on, you will always have that little voice (the one that makes you lose money) that tells you not to bet against your team.
i don't bet on the habs, ever.:p (unless someone gives me dummy odds that are too good to refuse. Some guys throw you these over under that are hilarious...because of the emotional investment that they have in their teams...profit) |

| Last year I bet the leafs to loose every single game. I ended up winning money but can't remember how much. |

| yea i understand that very well and i almost never bet on the leafs, i dont think i bet on them all season last year. but sometimes i try to be an unbiased observer(perhaps its not possible for me), and i will set them to lose sometime this season to offset this. They were getting good odds though and somtimes you just have to play for the odds, you know this though. |
