| Fighting | May 15, 2021 Tony Ferguson vs. Beneil Dariush |
Total 2½ -162 at |

This is a free play on Over 2.5. Tony Ferguson is now 37 years old, and coming off consecutive losses you might not think he has much left to give as a mixed martial artist. He will be an underdog here against Beneil Dariush, but don't expect this to be an easy fight by any means. Ferguson went the distance in his last fight, losing the decision to Oliveira, and his KO loss to Justin Gaethje came in the fifth round. In 31 professional fights, that was his only loss by knockout. He's also only lost once by submission. He should be able to stand in there for at least three rounds, and an upset wouldn't be that big of a surprise either. GL, Jesse Schule |

Clippers +8 -110 at SC Consensus |

This is a 2* play on LAC. The Clippers lost at home by 30 points in Game 5, and they face elimination in Dallas in Game 6. I expect a better effort from LA, and they should improve on their 37.9 percent shooting from the field in Game 5. The Mavs shot 54 percent from the field in LA, and they should suffer some regression to the mean here at home. This line appears to be a bit inflated, and that may be due to recency bias. I'll take the Clippers in a revenge spot getting a bunch of points. GL, Jesse Schule |

MLB | May 03, 2024 Mariners vs Astros |
UNDER 8 -110 | Tie |
| Play Type: Premium | ||

This is a 2* play on Under. We might see a pitcher's duel in Houston in Game 1. Ronel Blanco will toe the slab for Houston, and he's already tossed a no-no this season. Blanco is 1-0 with a 1.20 ERA in two starts at Minutemaid Park. The Mariners hand the ball to George Kirby, who is 1-0 with a 1.62 ERA in three starts versus the Astros. That includes tossing seven scoreless innings in a no decision in a 1-0 loss in the playoffs. The Mariners rank 27th in the major leagues with 111 runs scored, and their team batting average of .219 also ranks 27th. GL, Jesse Schule |

Predators -122 at circa |

This is a 2* play on NASH. The most important player in a playoff series is almost always the goaltender, and that is not good news for the Vancouver Canucks. Their #1 goaltender Thatcher Demko is sidelined with an injury, and now they have to choose between a struggling backup netminder or and inexperienced third string goaltender. Nashville rallied to win in OT in Game 5, and I like their chances of forcing a Game 7 in Vancouver. GL, Jesse Schule |

WHO IS THE ICEMAN? He’s no soothsayer and he doesn’t have a crystal ball, but Jesse Schule can indeed predict the future. As a professional handicapper, it’s actually part of his job description. His clients have accused him of secretly possessing Marty McFly’s Sports Almanac, but he tells us the secret to his success is thanks in part to his fascination with history. The idea that you can predict the future by studying the past is nothing new. Historians have been doing it for years. Career Highlights: - Perfect 10-0 start to NFL Season (2022) - Perfect 5-0 Super Bowl Card (2018) - Perfect 6-0 NBA Finals Futures (2017) - Perfect 3-0 NBA Finals Futures (2019) - Perfect 3-0 NBA Finals Futures (2020) - Perfect 8-0 card X-Mas Day (2016) - Perfect 8-0 NCAA Tourney picks Sweet 16 - Final (2015) - Picked Germany +$700 to win World Cup (2014) - Picked Marcus Mariota +$700 to win Heisman (2014) Handicapping Methodology: Jesse is not a believer in systems, programs or number crunching formulas to handicap games. He is firm in his belief that you aren't playing against the sportsbook, you are playing against the average Joe (other bettors). Jesse is notorious for attacking inflated point spreads, soft lines and totals that are a little out of whack. He also relies on a nearly photographic memory with an uncanny ability to tell you a player's history and stats dating back for decades. Anyone can look up how many touchdowns a guy has scored, Jesse can also tell you about the ones that he almost scored. Money Management: His plays are rated based on a 1-10 star system, and he recommends wagering 0.5 percent of your bankroll per star rating. So a top rated 10* play would represent a bet equal to five percent of a player's bankroll. Signature Plays: AFTERNOON EXECUTIONER: This title is reserved for games with a start time between 12:00 – 4:30 ET. These are popular with action junkies who are dying for the games to get underway. The TERMINATOR: Jesse's signature totals play, the Terminator has established a reputation as one of the most consistent winners in Schule's repertoire. TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE: These plays represent a game where the stats show a significant trend which isn't reflected in the price. GRIM REAPER BLOWOUT: His signature play reserved for medium to large favorites. High percentage plays for those who don't mind laying chalk. HOT DIGGITY DOG: This is the Iceman's signature underdog play. About as rare as strawberries in December, you'll want to grab these whenever they are available |
