It’s no secret that I’m not just a sports handicapper but I’m also a global sportsbook oddsmaker, and I love posting odds that you will not see in Las Vegas or in the States. I call these betting propositions, “Actually Bet This,” and so early last week I posted some very interesting Dustin Poirier/Conor McGregor props. I can guarantee I will dive into more props for this mega sold-out event at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Boxing Betting Strategy and Expert Tips for Knocking Out Your Sportsbook
by Doc's Sports - 6/21/2019
Sport is a beautiful thing. On any given night, two teams chock-full of the best athletes in the world, or two single competitors, face off against each other in hopes of beating their opponent and claiming victory. Most of the time the better team/player prevails. However, sometimes, when you least expect it, something insane takes place that leaves everyone scratching their head and wondering what the hell just happened. For many boxing fans, that night was on Feb. 11, 1990.

2019 WNBA Season Preview and Doc's Sports Expert Handicapping
by Doc's Sports - 5/20/2019
It's that time of year again. The time of year where two of the four major sports draws to an end, and the only sport left to fill the void is Major League Baseball, and for some, Major League Soccer. It really is the dog days of the betting calendar, and most bettors force plays on MLB games they have no business betting.
New Football League AAF: Use Caution When Betting
by Trevor Whenham - 2/12/2019
Just five days after the Super Bowl, the AAF, the Alliance of American Football, debuted on CBS. It's an eight-team league that is well funded, with all teams centrally owned. The games drew decent numbers, outpacing an NBA game on ABC and pulling in the right demographics on a Saturday night. The league isn't trying to take on the NFL - they aren't that dumb. But they do see themselves as a way to satisfy the endless hunger of Americans for football and to give players who have not made it in the NFL another chance to cut it.
NHL Power Rankings: Expert Analysis and Futures Odds
by Doc's Sports - 11/28/2018
We are now approaching December, and by now most teams have played between 23 and 25 games. This is a critical junction of the season because I read a stat the other day that over the course of the last five years, 77.5 percent of teams who were in a playoff spot on American Thanksgiving made the postseason when the season finished up. If we take that a step further, the percentage drops to 75 percent, but now we are dating all the way back to the 2005-06 season.

by Chris Vasile - 9/10/2018
It has been just more than a year since the sporting world stopped what they were doing and tuned in to the biggest pay-per-view event in recent memory. You probably know what I'm talking about without even mentioning it; that's how captivating it was. If you don't, well shame on you for missing out. I'm talking about the Floyd Mayweather vs Connor McGregor "fight" that took place on Aug. 26, 2017. Now, while it was more of a sideshow than a legitimate boxing match, it did serious pay-per-view numbers and got boxing fans wanting more.

2018 Winter Olympics Betting Advice: Value Bets
by Trevor Whenham - 2/13/2018
I'm kind of obsessed with the Winter Olympics. When they were held in my hometown of Calgary in 1988 my grandfather was the president of the games, so I grew up around the Olympics. They are a far different animal than they were back then - far more complex and less pure - but they are still very compelling. It also doesn't hurt that Canadians are pretty good at the games. As fun as they are to watch, the Olympics can be pretty good to bet on as well. As always, there are some bets that are much better than others.
2018 Winter Olympics Wagering Advice and Tips: Bets to Avoid
by Trevor Whenham - 2/13/2018
I love watching the Winter Olympics, and I love betting on them. Often we find ourselves drawn to the heavy favorites in many events. So far, for example, Chloe Kim in the snowboard halfpipe, Mikael Kingsbury in the moguls, Dutch speed skaters, and Norwegian skiers have all delivered as prohibitive favorites. But favorites don't always come through - especially in more volatile events. The trick to betting success, then, is to know which favorites aren't worth the gamble. Here are six favorites I'll be steering clear of (odds are from Bovada):
