Three team NHL parlay for Wednesday, February 10, 2010

Many hockey bettors outside of Ontario who play their province’s sports lottery are no doubt pissed off today.

Last night, four of the seven games on the NHL card were determined by shootout.

This means that anyone outside of Ontario who took a side in one of these games lost on their ticket because shootouts are not included in betting results.

What a scam.

All respected online sportsbooks include shootouts in their results, and as they should.

And while Ontario is the one provincial jurisdiction that does include shootouts, Proline Ontario odds are always worse than online books, which translates into significantly lower payouts.

Once again, if you’re going to bet on hockey, do your wallet a favour and bet online. Any one of these sportsbooks will take care of you: Bodog.com, Bet365.com and Bwin.com.

As for tonight, here is a three-team NHL parlay for Wednesday, February 10, 2010. The selections come courtesy of Puckline’s Las Vegas connection.

In the first chart, the odds for the two European sportsbooks, Bet365.com and Bwin.com, apply to regulation time only. Bodog.com and Ontario Proline odds include final game results, including shootouts. Proline/Sports Select odds (except for Ontario region) apply to regulation time plus overtime, but not shootouts.

In the next chart, the odds for the two European sportsbooks, Bet365.com and Bwin.com, include overtime and shootouts. Bodog.com and Ontario Proline odds include final game results, including shootouts. Proline/Sports Select odds (except for Ontario region) apply to regulation time plus overtime, but not shootouts.

Bodog.com, Bet365.com and Bwin.com are safe, reliable, licenced sportsbooks that accept Canadian players. I have accounts at all three books and the user experience is top notch. I highly recommend all three of them.
