Sharks vs Senators NHL Free Pick The Angle(s): The Ottawa Senators are coming off an emotional 5-1 rout of Florida in Brady Tkachuk's much-hyped return, and now they have to turn around on the second night of a back-to-back. That's a classic letdown spot, and Ottawa will likely give Linus Ullmark the night off in favor of Samuel Ersson, who owns a .884 career save percentage. The San Jose Sharks arrive with confidence after an overtime win in Montreal. Macklin Celebrini has five goals in eight games, the power play is converting at 24.2%, and Alex Nedeljkovic has been sharp in net. The Bet: Sharks ML (3%): |

4% Bucks/Wizards NBA TOP PLAY of the Day The Angle(s): The market has knocked the Washington Wizards down noticeably since AJ Dybantsa was ruled out with a mild ankle sprain, and I think that's an overreaction. The No. 1 pick averaged 12.8 points in preseason, but this offense runs through Trae Young and Anthony Davis. The Milwaukee Bucks are starting over without Giannis Antetokounmpo, and the early returns aren't encouraging. Milwaukee dropped preseason games to Minnesota, Charlotte and Indiana after losing seven of its final 10 last season, and they won just 13 of 41 road games. Washington also beat the Bucks 109-99 in their last meeting at Capital One Arena. I'll take the discounted price on the home side. The Bet: Wizards ATS (4%). |

Jazz vs Grizzlies NBA FREE PICK The Angle(s): The Utah Jazz were one of the league's worst road teams last season, winning just eight of 41 games away from home. Even so, the public is piling on Utah in this season opener, yet Memphis has flipped to a short favorite at most books. That kind of reverse line movement tells me the sharper money is siding with the home team. The Memphis Grizzlies debut the Cameron Boozer era with Zach Edey healthy again after he played only 11 games last season, giving them a frontcourt Utah will struggle to match. The two clubs split last year's series, but Memphis handled the Jazz 123-114 at FedExForum in February. I'll back the Grizzlies in front of a home crowd ready for a fresh start. The Bet: Grizzlies ML (3%). Profits five of the last six NBA seasons! and NBA last season: 183-157 (53.8%), +2.4% ROI! Stellar 37-20 (65%) HEAETER with top-rated (4-5%) NBA sides dating back to February 10, 2026, and he has a 3-pack featuring Mike's first 4% NBA TOP PLAY of the season + 2 NHL picks. |

MAGIC MIKE'S NHL MONEYLINE MONEYMAKER The Angle(s): The Florida Panthers roll into Canadian Tire Centre on a three-game winning streak with their offense in overdrive, having hung seven goals on Columbus and eight on Seattle. Brady Tkachuk makes his first trip back to Ottawa since requesting a trade, and he arrives red hot with back-to-back hat tricks and 10 points over his last four games. I expect him to channel that emotion into another big night. The Ottawa Senators are averaging just 2.44 goals per game and are playing without Thomas Chabot and William Eklund. Linus Ullmark has masked a lot of those flaws, but Ottawa managed only one goal in its last outing, a loss to the lowly Flyers, and they've scored five goals across their last three games. With this priced near a coin flip, I'll take the deeper, hotter club. The Bet: Panthers (3%). |

MAGIC MIKE'S NHL BOOKIE BREAKER The Angle(s): The Philadelphia Flyers have strung together back-to-back wins after a nine-game winless start, and I think the market is giving that small sample too much credit. Both wins came at home, Philly has dropped all five of its road games, and the Flyers have been outshot in nine of 11 contests while scoring three or more goals just twice. The Buffalo Sabres have owned this matchup at KeyBank Center, winning the last three home meetings by a combined 15-9 score. Buffalo also welcomes Jason Zucker back to the lineup, and the Sabres have combined for six or more goals in six of nine games. I expect their offense to take advantage of a Flyers team that hasn't found its footing away from home. The Bet: Sabres ML (3%). |

Mike "Moneymaker" Lundin's experience as a professional poker player has proven to be an immeasurable asset in sports handicapping. He's a numbers guy, with a keen eye for spotting trends and stats that just don't jive with the odds offered by the bookmakers. All Mike's plays come with write ups backing up his selection, giving you a glimpse into his process of breaking down games. ----Bankroll Management---- Mike rates his plays between 100-500* with the 500* bets being the MAX B€T$. Bet each * with 1% of your bankroll. 200* (2%) = Free picks and low-confidence / high-variance plays 300* (3%) = Regular plays 400* (4%) = TOP PLAY$ = Play of the Day and other top play releases 500* (5%) = MAX BET$ = Game of the Week, Month, and Game of the Year releases Just as in cash game poker, the goal is not to win that giant pot once in a while, but to build your bankroll slowly and steadily by identifying +EV situations to exploit. ----Handicapping Methodology---- As a former online poker pro, Mike knows the value of creating systems and winning formulas through statistical analysis and math to use as a baseline, but much like poker, sports are played by human beings with emotions and feelings. Identifying letdown spots, bounce-back spots and situational betting in general plays a big part in Mike's success in picking winners, but he's also not a stranger to locking in a bet based on stats and trends alone. |
