Advantage Betting
Hot or Cold?
Could you name the five NHL teams that have won seven of their past 10? There is a good chance most people wouldn’t come up with the Atlanta Thrashers or Ottawa Senators. Ottawa is actually the only team to win eight of their past 10.
With the NHL season winding down I find it a good time [...]
Parlay System Update
In several posts I have mentioned a Parlay System I have been using for the World Baseball Classic. In my last post on this subject I had a couple parlay bets on this game
Venezuela won this game 3-1 so the Netherlands (+3) was good with the under.
I made the same two parlays for this game [...]

The score was 6-0 in favor of the Dominican Republic in [...]

Before I get to that I want to discuss the bet that I have just finished placing. The Dominican Republic is playing the Netherlands tomorrow. The Dominican Republic are 7 run favorites, while the over/under [...]
World Baseball Classic Underway
Baseball is back! The World Baseball Classic started yesterday with Japan beating China 4-0. I really like Japan to repeat this year. I think 4-1 is value, you can still get odds above that at Betfair and some sportsbooks. One of the advantages of a betting exchange is not only that games go in-play but [...]
Top 3 Underrated NBA Teams

Instead of looking at underrated players I thought it would be interesting to look at the top 3 underrated teams. These could be teams worth looking at in upcoming matchups to get some value. [...]
TSN Line Comparison
I have found a line comparison provided by TSN (www.tsn.ca). It provides lines for several sportsbooks and Betfair. You can compare games in the four major sports in North America as well as soccer from a variety of countries. There are plenty of sites that do this. They can help you to find the best [...]
How Much Should I Be Betting?
One problem many gamblers/bettors have is not knowing how much to bet. Gamblers tend to “let it ride” when they are on a hot streak or sometimes chase losses when they are losing. An advantage bettor will stick with a gameplan and part of a proper gameplan is to be discipline with wager amounts.
