I am on a terrible run in the best bet thread. I think I have posted 1 winner in 2024, no exaggeration. This might be a good fade thread.

Easily my most devastating loss as a Jets fan. This year felt different. I honestly thought it might have been our year.
Thanks guys.

Hard to explain how poorly Hellebuck played, I know I mangled his name, but after his performance he deserves it. Anyway, BOL in the challenge, would be cool to see back to back winners, I wonder if that's been done before (paging CBob)

It looks like this thread needs a little spicing up.

On this Kentucky Derby weekend it’s fitting I share a gambling story about my late Dad. You see dad was quite the horse racing handicapper. He won 5 handicapping contests at Assiniboia Downs racetrack here in Winnipeg. Each time he won a trip to Vegas and a free entry in some handicapping contest in Vegas which would give you bragging rights as worlds best horse handicapper. I’m not aware of any such contest, maybe some readers here are aware of it. Dad had to decline every time he won because of his poor health the insurance costs were not worth it. He woud spend countless hours reading his racing forms.i never got the racing bug. Seemed too much work compared to sports handicapping.Also If I had a dollar every time I heard mom make a smart comment about how these forms would make good firewood. Mom despised his hobby as dad would call it. Mom always told me don’t be like your dad. If only I listened to Mom.

I expect plenty of NHL winners from an EOG contributor who calls himself PUCKHANDLER.
This is a tough month for a guy who specializes in the NHL, playoffs are tough to beat anyway much less having to adhere to the -110 rule
