Off the record I think I like the draw values of the first 3 knockout games.

I just ordered some of this for next week's games. Not a fan of France, but I do like Moroccan hash.

yeah...belgium tomorrow..as Hazard, Hazard, Witzel, De Bruyne, Lukaku look to take down Ronaldo...

a 40 year old former demi-god gives you a +125 opportunity we should probably ride.
France is also a great play Tuesday.

Rask Record:
13-10, +109 units

Pick 24: 2 units, Chech/Nether DRAW (+260)...the netherlands have shown me little to assume they can knock out a solid Chech squad. Even if they go up a goal, I think Chech is a bad team to try to sit on a lead as they create lots of loose ball contests and volleys in the box. +260 is too high for this game, imo.
Pick 25: 9 units, Belgium (+125)
I think Belgium might be the best team in Europe right now. France and Italy are right there with them, Germany should be better with their front line but they have been wildly inconsistent. Portugal always seems to play above their overall talent level, seemingly led by the former demi-God Ronaldo merely strutting around on a casual walk it seems. He nor Messi run much these days and seeing him strolling 20 yards off-side is not uncommon. Because of who Belgium has Portugal will be on their heels in this, defending with 10 men and an occassionally interested Ronaldo. This is a step up in competition from their group, but I have to like the +125 with an all-star team at my back.
Pick 26: 8 units, Tampa Lightning (-200)
I do respect the Habs actually and know they are good with plenty of star power. The Lightning are alot to handle, and I give them a sizable edge in the first game while the Canadiens get a feel for what it takes to slow them down. The Islanders in a way prepared Tampa for this series and they are as comfortable defending as they are attacking. As if their personnel weren't daunting enough, I think Tampa is just as good tactically, and they do some things on the ice that will take not just adjustment, but a little experience...so at home, with an all-star team...going to be a tough game for the Habs to win.

Pick 27: 4 units, Belgium/Bucks/Lightning/France

I have a good feeling about this parlay. The first one is tough, so we can correct that after, which is nice. I feel all 4 have an overwhelming advantage and make for a good parlay where the bookie's back is against the wall if we land the first one.

I try to keep parlays to 2 or 3, but if the first one is the best value and odds then you can stretch it and hedge later, which will be a (+250 or better) fatty on the draw because its doubtful that the Swiss can win outright.

I was in error not to include Portugal in the top tier of Italy, Belgium, France.

That's an impressive squad even after Ronaldo retires. Hot damn.

I dont know why Alexi Lallas trains Portugal in the dark arts but fucking hell they always have 15 filthy players.

Rask Record:15-12, +118 units

Pick 28: 59 units, max bet of 50%. (-250)

I'm still seeing England between -230 and -270...I expect that will be -350 by whistle and should be -600 as England will know what to do with them.

England smells opportunity here, and is a nation smoldering in disappointment for a very long time. Ukraine has been gift wrapped to this point and do not belong.

Pick 29: 19 units on Spain/England-1.5 (+225)

I really like this. I think Spain can out class Switzerland and turn the game heavily in their favor, like 17 shots to 5. While England is going to seize opportunity and run away, put them away when they have the chance. Spain just to win (-155), and England to win by 2...(+125) is a powerful combo.

Might be some sweaty moments against Switzerland but swarm La Liga Defense and ball possession will keep this game under control. If Spain gets in trouble or concedes early they lack the teeth to do anything about it, but they can be methodical here and create more opportunities.

After return from my Vegas trip I got back in the saddle with MLB betting.

I cleared a tidy profit on the White Sox victory last night.

Idk why but I knew the Sox would beat the Twins, even after that Polanco HR in the 8th, I knew the Sox would come back.

I made these bets with the Sox down.... felt like free money after the game lol.

I also threw money at the Astros once that game began and they were up 2-0

1626884784210.png

Even money on the run line, and you know the Astros are gonna score runs once they get going.

I am looking at the Moneyline on the White Sox, Astros, and Rays today/tonight.

Edit: And here was my initial bet on the game, plus a nice cherry on top.

Astros and White Sox play tonight... still time for bets.

Anyone watching the gold cup?

This is definitely a year that could get away from the Mexico-US death grip.

Mexico has striker dilemmas and the U.S sent their back-ups to unearth a few players that can help them for World Cup.

Mexico can win. It's too bad about Davies for Canada. Jamaica is for real. Honduras and El Salvador can play.

Somebody has to outlast Mexico on penalties. Qatar ain't bad either.

I think we could see a surprise and surprise means money.

I had another good night after 2 Sox games where I took a f***ing bath, so I feel like gloating a bit.

1627659402076.png

I had the Brewers beating the Pirates the night before and they were able to absorb my Sox losses, so when I was down after the day game yesterday I went big on the Brewers and the over and **** did they deliver.

I also expanded to playing 3 Sportsbooks last night, so my next win was on DraftKings.

1627659502382.png

Padres were up 1-0 the entire game, and I felt like they would get some insurance runs in the 8th.

1627659562889.png

And last but certainly not least was my FanDuel bet....
