Jim Feist Odds

Jim Feist odds service was LineTracker,
but he bought out Don Best odds
service
. This was a wise idea because for all the money the JimFeist.com conglomerate
had, Don Best
line service
was always superior.

Jim Feist also does a cable television network, but for
marketing reasons, his handicappers
are forced to post selections well in advance of when most sharp players place
their bets at the sportsbooks.

Conversely, OffshoreInsiders.com
believes the only marketing tool is winning more than everyone else. This
successfully executed credo results in the sports handicappers being told to
release their winning sports picks based purely on whenever the quality of
information dictates.

At one point, Jim Feist’s handicapping stable was well
respected with Scott Spreitzer, Dave Cokin, and Glenn McGrew. However his credibility hit rock
bottom when in order to combat a declining market share, he brought on
notorious scamdicapper Lou Diamond.


Don Best Odds

During my scorephone dynasty, we subscribed to DonBest odds for years. If you have $650 per month to spend
for scores and odds, they are still the best at real-time info on one page.

But the truth is, it is no longer
necessary to pay $7,000 a year. Live scores from
several sources are free and on one page. Also real-time offshore sportsbooks odds, much sharper than the
Las Vegas betting odds from their low-volume sportsbooks are also free NBA Odds NFL Odds Baseball Odds NCAA Football Odds NCAA Basketball Odds.

If one of the sports betting services on Don Best has a
pick worth betting, the top consensus plays at MasterLockLine.com
has it.


Monday NBA and NHL Playoffs

There are two playoff games on the schedule for Monday night, and they’re
both going to be played in Detroit.
For the winners, check out the top sports
handicapper
Joe Duffy at OffshoreInsiders.com. Here’s a look at the Pistons and Wings in your
playoff gameday:

Boston
Celtics at
Detroit
Pistons,
8:30pm ET

The Pistons might have all the recent postseason experience, but they now
find themselves down 2-1 to the Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals. Boston
opened the series with an 88-79 win at home, but Detroit
bounced back to knock off the Celtics 103-97 in Game 2 in Boston.
Game 3 was played back in Detroit
on Saturday night, with the Celtics looking to pick up their very first road
victory of the playoffs. Boston
roared out to a 50-32 lead at the break in that contest, and then cruised from
there to the 94-80 win. Kevin Garnett led the way with 22 points and 13
rebounds for Boston on Saturday,
while Ray Allen was good for 14 points. Paul Pierce had only 11 points on
4-of-6 shooting in the win. Richard Hamilton poured in 26 points in the loss
for Detroit, Rodney Stuckey
contributed 17 points off the bench, and Rasheed Wallace picked up 12 points.

Despite Boston’s success on the
road in Game 3 the oddsmakers still opened the Pistons as 5.5-point home
favorites for Game 4. The contest’s total was opened at 175.

Pittsburgh
Penguins at
Detroit
Red Wings,
8:00pm ET

The Penguins rolled through the Eastern Conference side of the NHL playoffs,
but it looks like they’ll find the going tougher against the Red Wings in the
Stanley Cup final. Detroit got a
pair of goals from Mikael Samuelsson
on Saturday night as they rolled to a 4-0 win in the opening game of the
championship series; Samuelsson had scored just two
goals over the first three rounds of the playoffs. Dan Cleary and Henrik Zetterberg also scored for the Red Wings late in the
third period to secure the victory. Detroit’s
stifling defense allowed netminder Chris Osgood to
have a relaxing evening – he had to make just 19 saves for the shutout. Pens
counterpart Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 32 of 36 shots
in the loss. Detroit forward Johan Franzen sat out Game 1 with his head injury, while veterans
Chris Chelios (Wings) and Gary Roberts (Penguins)
were both scratches.

The oddsmakers like the Red Wings’ chances of taking a 2-0 lead in this
series, as they opened as -170 home favorites for Monday night. The total for
the game opened at 5.5.

Latest Odds For Dancing With the Stars



Bet at 5Dimes

What a week sportsbooks
have in store insofar as betting television events. As she was from the
beginning, Krist Yamaguchi is the overwhelming
favorite to win “Dancing
With the Stars
”. The Las Vegas
odds have her as an overwhelming 1/4 favorite.

Like Dancing with the Stars, the original favorite to win
American Idol is alive as the final show gets ready to air. However the
American Idol betting odds now have David Archuleta as the +145 underdog. The
other David, David Cook is the favorite to be the Goliath at -190.

In other sports
betting
news, Big Brown has already been posted as a -275 to win the Belmont Stakes
and take home the Triple Crown.

Hillary Clinton insists to not yet count her out of the
race for US
President
. She is a 10/1 long shot, while Barack Obama is 5/7 and John
McCain is 5/4. Libertarian candidate Bob Barr may take away just enough votes
to ensure Obama wins.

Tout Wayne Allyn Root though is
also a finalist for the Libertarian nominee. Intrade
gives Obama a prohibitive 57 percent chance of winning the White House,
compared to just 38.9 for McCain and a mere four-percent for Clinton.

Tiger Woods is the underdog in the 2008 Masters Golf
tournament. Well kind of. According to the betting line posted by BetUs Sportsbook, Woods is
+120 when paired against “the field” meaning everyone else. The field is -160.

In addition to many proposition plays, said betting line is the cheat sheet
of choice for Masters Calcutta betting according to golf handicapping guru Cy McCormick of MasterLockLine.com.

One can also have fantasy match-ups such as Phil Mickelson
-140 to Vijay Singh or Justin Rose and Adam Scott paired against each other as
a pick, with 15 cents juice.

Bookmaker
allows bettors to pick by groups. Golfers are bracketed together by continent.
For example, Adam Scott is +200 to win the Australian group, followed by Geoff
Ogilvy.

In the South African classification, it’s Ernie Els leading the pack at +150 with Retief
Goosen next at +175. At +150, Padraig
Harrington is the odds on choice in the United Kingdom/Ireland assemblage.

Apparently Woods is exempt from the American classification
is his name is conspicuous by its absence, but Mickelson is +150, followed by
Jim Furyk at +700 and Steve Stricker
at +800.

Woods is even money at Bookmaker to win it all. Some
tempting long shots include Sergio Garcia at +5000, Mike Weir at +300 and
Justin Leonard at +7000.

Beating NFL Odds

Before burying the recently concluded NFL season, savvy
gamblers will want to sift through those decaying bones to determine if the
gridiron carcass left any clues that could be used to uncover a successful NFL
betting strategy when the 2008 campaign kicks off in September.

One angle that has clicked for several straight years again took the blue
ribbon in 2007: If you want to be an NFL betting winner, bet a winner. Simply,
teams that were straight up (SU) winners on the field also were highly
successful at the windows, against the spread (ATS).

In fact, of the 13 teams that posted regular season winning records, 12 of them
also had winning marks against the spread. The 13th team, the
Washington Redskins, was .500 ATS, meaning that no team with a straight up
winning record had a losing record against the spread. The overall pointspread
log for these 13 teams was 126-77-5, a
62.0 win percentage, a figure for which any NFL betting enthusiast would sell
his throwback jersey.

Yes, hindsight always is 20/20 but was it so difficult to predict that teams
such as the Patriots, Colts, Chargers, Seahawks and Cowboys would have straight
up winning records? Some shrewd bettors even allowed the oddsmakers and
bookmakers to do their homework for them, relying on regular season over/under
win total propositions as the basis for their wagers. The above-mentioned teams
all had totals of 10 victories or more entering last season.

On the other cleat, of the 15 teams that had straight up losing records, only
one, the Buffalo Bills, had a winning mark against the spread. Maybe it was the
snow that was the great pointspread equalizer in Buffalo.

Those 15 teams were 92-141-7 against the spread, a cover percentage of .394,
meaning that those who wisely bet against those teams collected on more than 60
percent of their wagers.

Predictably enough, the four teams that finished with straight up .500 records
also were right around that mark against the spread.
