| Fighting | May 15, 2021 Tony Ferguson vs. Beneil Dariush |
Total 2½ -162 at |
started |
|
This is a free play on Over 2.5. Tony Ferguson is now 37 years old, and coming off consecutive losses you might not think he has much left to give as a mixed martial artist. He will be an underdog here against Beneil Dariush, but don't expect this to be an easy fight by any means. Ferguson went the distance in his last fight, losing the decision to Oliveira, and his KO loss to Justin Gaethje came in the fifth round. In 31 professional fights, that was his only loss by knockout. He's also only lost once by submission. He should be able to stand in there for at least three rounds, and an upset wouldn't be that big of a surprise either. GL, Jesse Schule |

UNDER 208½ -109 |
Lost $109.0 |

This is a 4* play on Under. I had the under in Game 5, and here is what I said before the game: "Three of the four games in this series have gone under the total, way under. The only exception was the last game in Oklahoma City. Luka scored 29 points in that game, but has averaged less than 20 in the other three. He's clearly still battling the knee injury, and PJ Washington has become the Mavs go to guy on offense. I don't necessarily expect the shooting woes of Game 4 to carry over in to Game 5, but I don't expect either team to let up on defense either. " GL, Jesse Schul |

NHL | May 18, 2024 Canucks vs Oilers |
UNDER 6 +104 | Tie |
| Play Type: Premium | ||
|
This is a 4* play on Under. The Oilers face elimination in Game 6, and Connor McDavid might not be 100 percent. He was held off the scoresheet in Game 5, and he has just one point over the last three games. The first three games of this series all went over the total, but the last two games have gone under. Edmonton made a change between the pipes, with Calvin Pickard coming in to replace Stuart Skinner. Pickard has been solid, but Artus Silovs has been even better. We saw two elimination games in the NHL last night, and it was no surprise they both went under the total. Both teams should be ultra cautious here in Game 6 in Edmonton. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 4* play on KC. The Royals are only a game and half out of first place in the AL Central, and they are a big favorite here at home against Oakland. Ross Stripling will toe the slab for the A's, and he's coming off back to back rough outings. He got tagged for 14 runs on 14 hits over 6 2/3 innings in losses to Texas and Houston. The Royals hand the ball to Seth Lugo, who has been dealing so far this season. Lugo is 6-1 with a 1.66 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP. The A's rank dead last in the Major Leagues in team batting average.

WHO IS THE ICEMAN? He’s no soothsayer and he doesn’t have a crystal ball, but Jesse Schule can indeed predict the future. As a professional handicapper, it’s actually part of his job description. His clients have accused him of secretly possessing Marty McFly’s Sports Almanac, but he tells us the secret to his success is thanks in part to his fascination with history. The idea that you can predict the future by studying the past is nothing new. Historians have been doing it for years. Career Highlights: - Perfect 10-0 start to NFL Season (2022) - Perfect 5-0 Super Bowl Card (2018) - Perfect 6-0 NBA Finals Futures (2017) - Perfect 3-0 NBA Finals Futures (2019) - Perfect 3-0 NBA Finals Futures (2020) - Perfect 8-0 card X-Mas Day (2016) - Perfect 8-0 NCAA Tourney picks Sweet 16 - Final (2015) - Picked Germany +$700 to win World Cup (2014) - Picked Marcus Mariota +$700 to win Heisman (2014) Handicapping Methodology: Jesse is not a believer in systems, programs or number crunching formulas to handicap games. He is firm in his belief that you aren't playing against the sportsbook, you are playing against the average Joe (other bettors). Jesse is notorious for attacking inflated point spreads, soft lines and totals that are a little out of whack. He also relies on a nearly photographic memory with an uncanny ability to tell you a player's history and stats dating back for decades. Anyone can look up how many touchdowns a guy has scored, Jesse can also tell you about the ones that he almost scored. Money Management: His plays are rated based on a 1-10 star system, and he recommends wagering 0.5 percent of your bankroll per star rating. So a top rated 10* play would represent a bet equal to five percent of a player's bankroll. Signature Plays: AFTERNOON EXECUTIONER: This title is reserved for games with a start time between 12:00 – 4:30 ET. These are popular with action junkies who are dying for the games to get underway. The TERMINATOR: Jesse's signature totals play, the Terminator has established a reputation as one of the most consistent winners in Schule's repertoire. TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE: These plays represent a game where the stats show a significant trend which isn't reflected in the price. GRIM REAPER BLOWOUT: His signature play reserved for medium to large favorites. High percentage plays for those who don't mind laying chalk. HOT DIGGITY DOG: This is the Iceman's signature underdog play. About as rare as strawberries in December, you'll want to grab these whenever they are available |
