NHL | Nov 12, 2019 Panthers vs Bruins |
Bruins -170 at betonline |
Lost $170.0 |
| Play Type: Premium | ||

My 6* BIG TIGER is on the Boston Bruins. The Panthers come in off a shootout road victory in The Big Apple, but I think they're going to have their hands full here vs. the Bruins who enter in a foul mood after three straight defeats, including at home to the Flyers in their last one. Key Trends: - Florida averages 3.53 GPG and Boston concedes 2.41. - The Bruins average 3.53 GPG and the Panthers allow 3.53. The verdict: Enough is enough! Note as well that Florida is a pathetic 2-7 in its last nine after a victory, while Boston is still 10-4 in its last 14 as a home favorite. The verdict: Expect the Bruins to come in razor focused and to find a way to get the job done at the end of the night; play on Boston! |

NBA | Nov 12, 2019 Nets vs Jazz |
Nets +6½ -105 at pinnacle |

My 9* BEWARE OF DOG is on the Brooklyn Nets. I think the Nets matchup well against the Jazz here and I think the visitors have a real shot at pulling off the outright upset. That said, in the end I'll grab the points. This is going to be Donovan Mitchell vs. Kyrie Irving and in that matchup, I give Irving the big advantage. Key Trends: - Brooklyn is 21-10 ATS in its last 31 as a road dog in the 6.5 to 12 points range. - Utah is just 38-39 ATS the L2 years as a home favorite. The verdict: The Nets defense is its weak point, but the Jazz aren't known for running up the score. This is a great matchup and situational play in my opinion; grab the points! |

NBA | Nov 12, 2019 Cavs vs 76ers |
76ers -11 -105 at pinnacle |
Lost $105.0 |
| Play Type: Top Premium | ||
|
My 10* GAME OF THE WEEK is on the Philadelphia 76ers. The Cavs broke a three-game losing slide by responding with back-to-back victories. Cleveland's wins though have been over the Wizards and Knicks. The 76ers struggled on their Western road swing, doing half of it without big man Joel Embiid in the line-up. Philly then returned home to bea the Hornets. Now fifth in the East, the 76ers won't be taking anything for granted here. Key Trends: - The Cavs average 107.1 PPG and the Sixers allow 106.2. - The 76ers average 111.00 PPG and Cleveland concedes 108.0. The verdict: Cleveland is just 1-4 ATS in its last five after two or more consecutive upset victories as an underdog and I'm not reading too much into its minor win streak here. After their sub-par road trip, look for the 76ers to keep the foot on the gas at home vs. this "lesser" competition; lay the points! |

NCAA-F | Nov 12, 2019 Eastern Michigan vs Akron |
Akron +17 -105 at Bovada |
Lost $105.0 |
| Play Type: Top Premium | ||
|
My 10* BIG TIGER is on Akron. EMU is 4-5 and desperate for some victories as it looks to run down a bowl berth. The Eagles are just 1-4 in conference play, while the Zips are 0-9 overall and 0-5 in league action. Note that Akron will not only be relishing the thought of playing spoiler here vs. the Eagles, but it's also out for revenge after dropping this game last year by a score of 27-7. The Zips have the second worst offense in the nation, but they actually have a decent defense, allowing only 390 YPG. Eastern allows 455 YPG. Key Trends: - EMU is a poor 6-9 ATS in its last 15 as a favorite (including only 1-3 ATS this season.) - Akron is 3-1 ATS in its last four after a two-game road trip. The verdict: Outright victory? I doubt it. But the conditions are definitely right for a much more competitive battle than what this spread would suggest in my opinion; grab the points! |

Born: Hong Kong Bio: It didn't take long for Ricky Tran to make his mark here at Sportscapping. He really gained notoriety during the 2018 NCAA Tournament, with the profits piling up in a hurry. He was the top money earner in the month of March, and he finished the college basketball season with a record of 53-28 +$16,925. After profitable seasons with both NBA and NHL, the baseball season has had it's ups and downs. He's looking forward to another profitable football season, coming off a +$13,940 showing with NFL in 2017. The "Old Guard" in the handicapping industry is still somewhat reluctant to accept the fact that times have changed. Ricky represents a new breed of handicapper. Youthful, enthusiastic, technically savvy and up to date with the latest tools of the trade; but he's not shy to trust his gut on any given bet and ignore the stats. Tired of the same old square bets you get from other handicappers? Join with Ricky today and get his razor sharp picks and analysis! Signature Picks: Shoot Out The Lights (totals play): As a fan, we all like to see a high scoring game. Whether it's basketball, football or hockey, offense is always more fun than defense. If you want to sit back and watch two teams pile up the points, this signature play is on a game that should go WAY OVER! Beware of Dog (underdog play): If you like playing favorites, you best stay away from this game. When Ricky decides to back the underdog, it usually indicates that the favorite is grossly overvalued. This particular play features an underdog that should threaten to win outright! Clash of the Titans: This signature play usually features a high profile game, often between two teams that are battling for the top spot in the league, division or conference. Game of the Week/Month/Year: The top play for each particular sport, for the week, month or year.
