The NBA Playoffs are in full swing and so are our NBA props. The second round of the postseason started on Sunday, and we have a pair of Game 2 matchups on tap for Tuesday. The action gets underway with the Bucks vs Celtics at 7 p.m. ET and wraps up with a nightcap between […]
Monday’s Best Bets went 1-for-3 — not exactly ideal, but we’re still 11-7 since the beginning of last week. We also remain above the “gambling Mendoza line,” hitting 52.9 percent of our Best Bets overall. (Obviously, we’re not spending our free time shopping for yachts just yet, but hey, we’ll take it!) While the NHL playoffs […]

The New York Yankees’ current nine-game winning streak has featured a little bit of everything: pitchers’ duels, slugfests, nailbiters and blowouts. It’s also featured a bunch of punching-bag opponents. All nine victories came against Cleveland, Baltimore and Kansas City (the first six at home). And the Bronx Bombers were at least a -170 favorite in […]
Friday’s Best Bets went 2-1 yet again, giving us a solid 10-5 record last week. We spent the whole weekend perfecting our Connor McGregor strut, so it would be a shame if we couldn’t put it to use on Monday. Our NBA props improved to 26-10 on the season, while The Bostonian vs. The Book […]
After more than six months and 2,600-plus games — dozens of which had to be rescheduled because of that ongoing menace known as COVID-19 — we’ve finally reached the best part of the NHL season. No, not the part when everyone tries to guess how long it will take Boston’s Brad Marchand to be suspended […]

The Philadelphia Phillies took a game from the New York Mets on Saturday, but turning that into a winning streak could be an uphill climb. And that uphill climb’s name is Max Scherzer, who will be the starting pitcher for the Mets on Sunday. The ace hasn’t lost in his first four starts for New […]
Based on all the social media and TV talking-head chatter, one might think NFL Draft betting is off the charts. The first round opens at 8 p.m. ET Thursday, and odds on NFL Draft prop bets have seen all sorts of movement the past few days. The favorite to be picked No. 1 overall shifted […]
You’ve heard the cliché, “Two teams going in opposite directions.” It certainly applies to the Los Angeles Angels and Chicago White Sox — with the Halos moving toward the sun and the Pale Hose nearing Pluto. So it’s only natural to do a double-take when looking at Angles vs White Sox odds for Friday’s series […]
The New York Mets woke up today with the most wins in baseball and the best record in baseball. They also woke up refreshed, having been idle Thursday after playing 20 games in 21 days to begin the season. New York will try to remain on top of the MLB mountain when it welcomes the […]
Thursday’s Best Bets went 2-for-3, which is just fine by us. We’ll take a 66.6% winning rate to the bank whenever it’s offered. Speaking of winning rate, our Best Bets are 8-4 on the week heading into Friday. That’s despite a few close calls working against us. Even though there’s only one game on the […]
