Re: NHL totals: don\'t tell me the 5½\'s are gone already!
Really? Those are huge moves.
I've been getting my bets in early (overnight lines), because I have no doubt which way the lines will move.
I was gonna bet the Salami over, but the totals added up to about 83. I knew that had to be shaded up, but I thought 90 might be too big a shade.
With only three games tonight, and the Salami shaded to 19, I got too chicken to bet it. One low-scoring game can kill you, and you don't have much chance to overcome it.
I bet the late game (Phx/LA) over 6.
I parlayed the three overs, and to hedge it, I bet the Salami under. I wouldn't do that with more than three games on the board, but it seemed to make sense at the time.
