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

NHL | May 04, 2024 Maple Leafs vs Bruins |
UNDER 5½ -125 |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Free | ||
This is a free play on Under. History repeats itself? The Leafs face the Bruins again in a Game 7, and history favors Boston who have won four of the last five. The most significant trend though might be the total of 5.5. We've seen three of the last four games in this series go under the number, and Game 4 and Game 5 each ended with a final score of 2-1. Since 1996 Game 7s have gone under the total well over 60% of the time. I'm not about to buck that trend ... GL, Jesse Schule |

NHL | May 04, 2024 Maple Leafs vs Bruins |
Bruins -131 at circa |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 2* play on BOS. Both these teams have their share of demons when it comes to Game 7, but I think the Bruins have an edge here on home ice. Boston has lost three straight Game 7s dating back to 2019. That said they have won 4-of-5 versus the Leafs. One of those was back in 2013 when the Leafs held a 4-1 lead late in a Game 7 at Boston. The Bruins scored three goals in the final five minutes to force OT and won 5-4. I think Toronto turns over the same Leaf here in Game 7. GL, Jesse Schule |

MLB | May 04, 2024 Giants vs Phillies |
Phillies -165 at SC Consensus |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on PHI. The Phillies are hot, and the Giants are not. Philly comes into Game 2 as winners of 7-of-8, while the Giants have lost three of four. The Phillies are 11-6 at home and the Giants are 6-11 on the road. Ranger Suarez will toe the slab for Philly, and he's been damn near perfect so far. Suarez (5-0, 1.32 ERA) has allowed one run over 30 innings in his last five starts. The Giants hand the ball to Keaton Winn, who is 1-2 with a 3.38 ERA on the road. If the Phillies can't get to Winn, the Giants bullpen ranks 28th in the majors with a team ERA of 5.32 among relievers. Granted Philly doesn't have a great bullpen either, but Suarez is more likely to go deep into the game. The Phillies have a top 5 offense while the Giants are bottom half of the league offensively.

Fighting | May 04, 2024 Jose Aldo vs Jonathan Martinez |
OVER 2½ -210 |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Top Premium | ||
This is a 5* play on Over. Jose Aldo has gone the distance in each of his last four fights, and he faces an opponent who has gone the distance in four of his last six fights. The bookmakers have this projected to be a close fight, and it would be no surprise if this fight goes the distance. GL, Jesse Schule |

NBA | May 04, 2024 Wolves vs Nuggets |
Nuggets -175 at SC Consensus |
Lost $175.0 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on DEN. The Nuggets beat the Wolves in five games last year, and while this year's series may well be a hell of a lot more competitive, I gotta go with the champs. Nikola Jokic is far and away the best player in the league, and should be winner of four consecutive MVPs. Jamal Murray is Captain Clutch with a pair of game winners versus the Lakers. The Wolves are a great team, but I worry Karl Anthony Towns when it comes down to crunch time. Anthony Edwards has a bright future, but at 22 he's not yet in his prime. MJ (rumored to be his illegitimate father) didn't win a CHIP until he was 28. GL, Jesse Schule |

Soccer | May 04, 2024 Nottingham Forest vs Sheffield United |
Nottingham Forest -150 at YouWager |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Top Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on Forrest. Nottingham Forest has plenty to play for on Saturday, as they are currently tied on points with Luton Town, clear of the relegation zone only based on tie breaker criteria. Relegation is not in question for Sheffield United, who sit dead last in the Premier League, 10 points back of Nottingham Forest. Sheffield has a home record of 2-4-11 with a -33 goal differential in those matches. Sheffield has conceded a whopping 97 goals in 35 matches this season, which can only be described as "disgraceful". GL, Jesse Schule |

Soccer | May 04, 2024 Austin vs Vancouver Whitecaps |
Vancouver Whitecaps -150 at linepros |
Lost $150.0 |
Play Type: Top Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on VAN. Austin has just four wins in their last 21 away matches, while Vancouver is +18 in goal differential at home since the beginning of last season. Vancouver is 3-1-1 in their last five matches versus Austin, and they are 3-0 in their last three home games in this series. A win tonight would put Vancouver in 1st place in the Western Conference standings. GL, Jesse Schule |
SERVICE BIO |

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 |
