Bridgeport Islanders Discussion 2021-22: Playoffs Start May 2

[PK Cronin]

Dropping $100 to win $10 doesn’t seem worth it to me.

That’s my advice.

It's +110, doesn't that mean he'd win $110 with $100 bet, so he'd have $210 total?

i would win $110 plus get my original 100 back at those odds

The consensus last game, though I didn't watch, was that Bridgeport needed Schneider to stand on his head in order to win that game. They also scored a weird game tying goal with Hutton from the goal line near the corner. I suspect that Providence is significantly better but I don't know for certain.

Don’t bet on minor league sports.

Sage advice.

And don’t trust anyone who says “trust me on this”.

sensible words of wisdom!

Hopefully a good game tonight. Not expecting much, but would be cool to see them close it out.

I dunno for certain. I hate the money line. Always have to look it up the few times I gamble. Give me a spread or odds (10:1) that I can wager on instead.

Is the HF sportsbook actual money?

I hope not!

I honestly don’t get the sports book feature. It’s not real money. There’s a huge number of prop bets across many different sports but why?

None of us are paying for this site aside from the mental anguish related to the constant visual bombardment of ads. The cost to set up and maintain the sports book site alone must be sizable.

If I want some real action it’s now as easy as accessing an online wagering account.

So what am I missing?

No score after 1 period in Bridgeport. Chippy game so far. Lots of extracurriculars after every whistle. Bruins initiating most of that-Samuel Assellin and Oskar Steen.

Isles are getting good penetration on the Bruins defense. Many chances from in close on Grosenik. Isles also guilty of overpassing and trying to make plays that aren’t there at the Bruins blue line.

You’re not bored, you’re not a degenerate gambler addicted to the action, and playing for play money is no fun anyway.

Who is the caller?

 

[scottywiper]

Dal Colle surely tripped???

 

[scottywiper]

Not sure how they didn't score on that PP!

Combination of overpassing and Providence getting a stick or a body in the shooting lanes.

Overpassing? Where have I seen that before?

They teach ‘em young on the Isles’ farm.

1-0 Isles. Michael Dal Colle pops home a rebound of a Chris Terry shot. PPG

Dal Goal!

 

[scottywiper]

Under no pressure at all, Helgeson gives away a dumb delay of game penalty.

 

[The Real JT]

Isles #5OA picks doing well tonight.

First MDC and now Nino just scored on a PP for the Canes.

 

[MJF]

1-1. Going to OT.

 

[Big L]

I believe AHL playoff overtime is 5on5 until someone scores. Just like NHL.
