*Please post your plays for May 5 to May 11 in this thread. Plays posted elsewhere or for games that aren't being played that week will not be counted.
*Straight 1-unit bets on individual games
*Bets allowed are sides (OT included), 1.5 pucklines and totals only - no regulation time bets, alternate totals or props
*Remember to quote a current price displayed on SBR Odds - if you mess it up, I reserve the right to grade your play based on Pinnacle's price at the time of your post. I will use ShowMeTheOdds as a backup source for line history.
*Also remember that you must now submit a minimum of 4 plays per week (weeks will run from Wednesday to Tuesday) or face disqualification.

GL!

********

Standings before Thursday's action - Wednesday saw many players go deeper into the red, with the notable exception of cobra_king who swept the board and overtook Blitty in 2nd place!

I guess it is time to totally make the plunge. I have been picking Philly all series long, and they make it until the last couple of minutes then lose the money for me, although Pronger did save me a couple of bucks late in the game last time. I think I will stay with the Flyers at home.

PHI -146
PHI -1.5 +206
BOS / PHI OVR 5 -125

VAN -127
VAN -1.5 +233
CHI / VAN OVR 6 +117

This prayer was brought to me by Pinny. Yes Pinny, where people who don't have a clue are their best customers.

In reading a post of the grader going away on vacation, I will post my score as -0.80

Are those standings correct? I went back to mondays record before I put up any plays and my score was the same. Then I cumputed my score based on what I got from Monday's plays. I do actually bet these games, but I haven't been keeping track of my units like it is required here, only the bottom line which is roughly the same, but I also have a couple of NBA fun bets mixed in.

Not sure what you're saying. Did you come up with a different total or not?
 
I went back to Monday's post before I put up 3 plays, 2 lost and Pronger save me from the last one losing. Before I put up my plays, I had the same score posted as today's score. In a earlier thread, you stated that we should be keeping track of our scores now that you are going to a hospice in France somewhere. ( BTW, the river cruise kind of sucks, but the louvre and Notre Dame is cool). I computed my score entering what I lost from Monday and added it to Monday's score. So I got -0.80 which I think is right. Now I haven't really been keeping track because even though I have been placing actual bets and they are the same size, I have a couple of NBA plays in there and my overall bankroll hasn't move to the point that I would notice. Actually the amounts played are what I consider "fun" plays, and aren't designed for me to notice. So what I guess I'm saying is I'm more comfortable using my computed score from my earlier post from tonights plays, unless you know for a fact that it is wrong.

I can't seem to get over 4 units. Each time I get up there, I get a beat down to the 0 or below mark.

PHI +127 L -1
PHI +1.5 -245 W +1
PHI / BOS OVR 5 -130 P

VAN +145 L -1

All from Pinny

I skipped over that post of yours, going straight to my Monday plays in the following post... sorry! 1-2-1 -1u on Monday, so I have you at 23-26-3, -0.27, with 17 plays submitted in round 2.

And I've done most of the touristy shit in Paris a decade ago. Going back for and with my Mom who got a sudden urge to see the world.
