I'm trying to figure out how you got Tampa Bay Lighting at -255 when I seen it open at -330.
That's pretty impressive.

I wanted to clarify about betting like a little girl.
It has nothing to do with how big the bet is.
It has to do with something personal inside me.
I find it very difficult to bet hundred dollar bills on a Sporting Event.
Which is odd because I can bet 50 dollars to 250 dollars a spin on machines without a blink.
Let's be honest... after it gets past 125 per spin I kind of start to get uncomfortable.
But 50 dollars every time I push the button I can handle with ease.

HOWEVER...

The largest straight bet I ever made so far was 3300 to win 3000.
It is so difficult to let the bills go from my pocket and fingers.
So when I bet 300, 600 or even 1650 it is a very painful process.
Also, I get lazy when you have to break up the bet to keep it under a grand moving from book to book.
That's a lot of work.

Alright... let us get greedy today and try a 3 team parlay.

Nashville/Flordia = Over 5.5
Tampa Bay -1.5
Vegas -1.5

Not sure if the lay off is going to help the Knights or hurt them.
This bet is for my own personal fun and I can not be responsible if anyone bets along with me.
Make it fun and bet against me.
You people are supposed to give me Locks in this thread.
This stupid thread turned into me touting my stupid picks.
At least I don't charge any fees.
Ok, so lets review how I knocked the juice down on yesterdays TBL bet from -330 (or something close) to -255. It is because I bet the Lightning to win in regulation. That is excluding OT.

Yesterdays TBL to win in regulation knocked the juice down to -255 coupled with the Bruins at -135 made the parlay +144.
It is known as betting the 3 way line. Without OT there are three possible outcomes, either side and the draw. As I look at today's menu of options for the TBL game shows money line of -365 (ouch) but if I bet on Lightning to win in regulation it knocks juice down to -270. Still ouch but maybe a possible parlay leg.

Not sure what I'm going to take yet. Was running around all morning with wife.
