Newest +EV bets are the two leg NHL ones. They pick two favorites, then tend to give +50 or do more than fair odds. And I can get $50 down instead of the $25 limit on single boosts.
Interesting yesterday. There was a two leg parlay ‘boosted’ to around +350. It seemed way too low. I checked other sites and unboosted it was around +450, fair probably +575.
I’m wondering if they put this one as a ‘test’ to see how many (and WHO) would actually make that bet?

that kind of thing stinks. I seldom catch them doing that exactly. I've seen them make a "boost special" when investigation shows they had a line that needed to move anyway to something more favorable than the morning line due to competition

You can get around -1500 on the Thunder over the Lakers tonight on a ‘prediction market’. I can’t envision a realistic scenario in which the Lakers minus LeBron, Luka, Austin Reaves, and Marcus Smart can win. Like if you do 1000 simulations the Lakers win zero times.
I was able to get Thunder -15.5 for my regular boosted parlays. Those type bets are iffy as there are strange things that happen in garbage time.
$1000 to win $65 on Thunder?
