Yesterday we were not even close to win our bet as we picked the under in one of the highest svoring NBA games of the season. With that loss we are now back on negative figures for the year but we’ll turn that around over the week as we have some exciting picks coming up.

For the first time since we started our daily picks we will be taking our play of the day for the NHL where we like the Chicago Blackhawks at home against the Minnesota Wild. BetUS are offering a great odds for the Blackhawks on the moneyline here as we are getting +160 (2.60) for the Blackhawks -1.5. This means the Blackhawks will have to win with two goals or more in order for our bet to be good.

Our Bet: Chicago Blackhawks -1.5 against the Minnesota Wild

We have to start out by giving ourselves some credit today for our pick yesterday in the game between the Jets vs. Steelers. We said earlier in the week that we liked the Jets +4 but found an even better line as BetUS offered the Jets +7.5 in exchange for a lower return. After the game was over we were really happy that we went with the +7.5 line rather than the +4 line since the Steelers won 24-19. Now we are really looking forward to posting our Super Bowl XLV betting picks over the coming days.

Today we will be resorting back to the over/under lines in the NBA for our play of the day as we like the under 219.5 points in the game between the Houston Rockets and the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Our Bet: Under 219.5 points scored in the NBA game between the Rockets and the Timberwolves.

Yesterday we were really sure that Manchester City was going to beat Aston Villa in the English Premier League in their chase for the Premiership leage title but they played a terrible game and lost 1-0. With that loss we are now showing red figures for the year but we are sure we’ll bounce right back today as it’s NFL Sunday.

In the AFC Championship game between the New York Jets and the Pittsburgh Steelers we have already told you that we like the Jets +3.5 and since then the line has moved to +4 which is even better. At BetUS they are however offering a couple of alternative lines as well with adjusted odds and we really like the Jets +7.5 at the odds of -200 (1.50). We just can’t see the Steelers winning this game with more than a touchdown so the Jets +7.5 will be our play of the day today.

Yesterday we finally managed to pick a winner in a golf bet as Bubba Watson crushed John Senden with 5 shots during round three. With that win we are now back at green numbers even though it’s just a small $40 profit for the year.

Since it’s Saturday today and a full round of matches in the English Premier League we thought we would take our play of the day from there. One game that caught our attention is the one between Aston Villa and Manchester City where the bookies are offering more than even money on a Manchester City win. Sportsbook.com are generous enough to offer +110 (2.10) on a City win and we will be all over that.

Our Bet: Manchester City to beat Aston Villa

Odds: +110 (2.10) at Sportsbook.com

Result: Aston Villa 1 – Manchester City 0
