Did Ben even break a fucking sweat. Awful effort from everyone BUT Hank. And please St. Louis, leave the city ASAP and don;t come back.

Guy is a total tool.

Towards end of game 6 he (st louis) looked up into the Tampa crowd and said "f*ck you guys".

So glad Tampa & Steve Yzerman got the last laugh...

Gonna be a good series no matter who they play. I think they match up more favorably against Anaheim, but CHI/TB would be a more fun series to watch. For me at least :)

Hope so too. It'd the first parlay I've ever won. Though i've only bet like 4 in my life.

4 minutes with an empty net and could not get one...go figure

that was tough luck.

question, though. say you put $100 on that. do you ever scale it down and go partial to grab something out of it?



for example:


TB -2.5, +775 ------ $100/$775
TB -1.5, +340 ------ $0 / $0 ............ LOSS -100.00




TB -2.5, +775 ------ $ 70/$542
TB -1.5, +340 ------ $ 30/$102 ............. WIN + 2.00



so in both cases you're risking $100. if they win 2, you win $2 and don't lose $100. if they win by 3, you win $644.



any math monsters here to argue which method would be better? it seems a payout of $644 instead of $775 might be worth it if you say yourself $100 if they only win by 2..... but maybe I'm wrong

To figure out if it's mathematically better would need to know approximate percentage of time teams win by 2 and by 3. Specifically road dogs.

Your idea seems to have merit though.

My gut tells me that the frequency would make it better to do the split. And I guess off of that % you'd coordinate the amounts.

But taht's too much work for my monster cock.
