NBA | Bucks vs Pistons
Play on: UNDER 221½ -110
Game Analysis

Ricky's 1* play on Under.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- The Under is 4-2 in Detroit's last 6 games against an opponent in the Central Division.

- The Under is 4-2 in Detroit's last 6 games.

- The total has gone under in 4 of Detroit's last 7 home games.

Verdict: Points should be hard to come by in this game.

NBA | Mavs vs Suns
Play on: Suns -11½ -105 at Draft Kings
Game Analysis

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Phoenix Suns -11.5

The Phoenix Suns need to win to clinch the 7th seed in the West.  They still have a lot to play for.  The Dallas Mavericks are happy with losing games to increase their lottery odds.  The Mavs are 1-4 SU & 1-4 ATS in their last five games overall with all four losses coming by double-digits, and the lone win coming against the injury-ravaged Lakers.  This is a very important game for the Suns with road games against the Lakers and Thunder on deck.  They will come fully focused.  They should be the fresher team despite both teams playing the second of a back-to-back.  The Suns will be playing their 3rd game in 6 days while the Mavs will be playing their 4th game in 6 days.  Give me the Suns.

Soccer | Bayern Munich vs St. Pauli
Play on: Bayern Munich -1½ +100 at betus
Game Analysis

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. German Bundesliga Take Bayern Munich -1.5 GL over St. Pauli (12:30 p.m. EST, Saturday April 11) Bayern Munich is one of the best offensive sides in the world and if they are on their game they can win by multiple goals at home or on the road. These sides haven’t played many times but Bayern one of two lifetime meetings here 8-1. We don’t think this will be that lopsided of a contest, but this one is definitely a mismatch. Bayern Munich is the top road side in the Bundesliga as they haven’t lost all season with 11 wins, 3 draws and a +30 goal differential in 14 matches. So, they are winning their road matches by an average of more than two goals per match. St. Pauli is in the bottom four for home results this season and have a -6 goal differential here. Bayern Munich doesn’t take it easy on bad sides, and they should unleash their full arsenal here. The most excitement St. Pauli might get is autographs from the Munich players before the match! Get on this line easy as Bayern Munich is a very public side and will be bet up during the week.

NBA | Hawks vs Cavs
Play on: Hawks +1½ -110 at Bovada
Game Analysis

My selection is on Atlanta plus the points over Cleveland at 7:10 pm et on Wednesday.

These two teams continue to jockey for positioning in the Eastern Conference playoff race. They're coming off very different results two nights ago as the Hawks were 'upset' by the Knicks at home while the short-handed Cavaliers rallied for a blowout win over the hapless Grizzlies. Of note, Atlanta's loss on Monday only served to snap its four-game SU and three-game ATS winning streaks. It has quite simply been one of the league's best bets going back to mid-February, sporting a 16-5 ATS mark over its last 21 games. While Cleveland has also been stacking victories, it hasn't been nearly as good of a bet. You would have to go back to February to find the last time it strung together consecutive ATS victories. Satisfied off Monday's win and still dealing with some banged-up key contributors, I expect the Cavs to fall short on Wednesday. Take Atlanta (8*).

NHL | Sabres vs Rangers
Play on: OVER 6 -120
Game Analysis

AAA Sports' Selection: Buffalo Sabres/New York Rangers (OVER):

Buffalo has played a couple of lower scoring games recently, but still is used to playing in these high scoring games in many occasions since the winning began.

The OVER is still 4-2 over the L6 games played against opponents within the Eastern Conference for the Sabres.

Over the L6 games between these teams, the OVER has hit on four occasions as well.

New York is surprisingly playing it's best hockey right now winning five of it's L6 and scoring eight in it's last game.

We think that this game will see at least six goals.

Play on: Magic -7½ -110 at Buckeye
Game Analysis

Extra enhanced version of when a line appears counterintuitive to the points per game margins to date, go with the message the oddsmakers are sending and bet on the seemingly contradictory team is 1032-728-28. One of my top projection models keeps this short of premium bet, but it’s a strong free play. 

9-3 with premium bets and so much more winning is ahead! Lock in long-term now. 3 day MLB winners led by MLBTV ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️4-star Wise Guy Best Bet at 4:10 ET. NBA bet too.
