Major League Baseball Betting: Boston and NY set the tone for a thrilling season

The MLB opened with a bang on Sunday as one of the game’s great rivalries was renewed but the 2010 season really gets into the swing with a full schedule this weekend. Nick Shiambouros selects the best bets. “Sunday saw a gritty performance from a resilient Boston team and they showed that they will fight New York all the way to the last pitch this year.” The Boston Red Sox beat the New York Yankees 9-7 in a thrilling game in Sunday’s season opener. New York blew a 5-1 lead in this high scoring game. The great CC Sabathia lost his way on the mound for the Yankees and Boston made him pay

NBA Betting: Magic might temporarily lose their sparkle at season’s end

Nick Shiambouros has a short term laying strategy for Dwight Howard’s Orlando Magic – who have the championship in their eyes and not the final few games of the season “The limited playing time of Orlando center Dwight Howard is another reason to oppose the Magic. Howard is the cornerstone of this team and it is unlikely he will play a lot of minutes. Coach Van Gundy will want him healthy and rested before the playoffs begin.” The Orlando Magic look certain to finish the season in second place in the Eastern Conference. The Magic are 4.5 games ahead of third placed Atlanta with only five games left to play in the regular season. Lebron’s Cleveland have already finished first in the Conference. In short, Orlando have nothing left to play for until the start of the playoffs later this month . Coach Stan Van Gundy’s only concern at the moment is the health of his team. He will not risk playing his starting rotation for long minutes in meaningless games and that could give Betfair punters an edge

Nick Shiambouros’ Patented 80/20 Bet

Will today’s runner have the Edge? Nick thinks so… Today’s 80/20 is Superior Edge in the 14.55 at Ffos Las . This filly showed some ability last season when finishing fifth to Vanishing Grey at Bath. She was still a little backward that day and is entitled to show improvement on her three-year-old debut. I think she could run well at a big price. At present she is trading at 9.4 on the exchange.
