Ok, about the ladies in Super G....
Latest news on Kostelic is that she IS on the starting list :cursin: given the 24 hours delay she had to get better but she said she will decide 3 hours before the event (3:00 am eastern time) if she will be part of it or not... :mj09: Anyhow, if you ever see any line on her like in the +800 or more it might be a good idea to back her up for half a unit...
Our picks were popular because now lines are pretty low on both of our girl... :tongue The other one i like well her line went up so it is a go for me!
Womens Alpine skiing Super G:
A. MEISSNITZER +700 (0.5 unit)
If Kostelic is out we have the next 3 favorites to win that event and great lines on them (+400;+550 and +700!). Have fun tomorrow morning! :brows:

Dorfmeister wins on the last run.....just beat out 'I suckered you in' Kostelic who was actually odds on up to that point.
Thanks 1837.

OUPS!!! Me bad... :mj03: They are leading midway to the event with Finland on our back... Let's go AUSTRIA!!!! :bigun: :firing:
Today mens hockey:
Slovakia +0.5 -175 (2 units changed it for 2 units!)
This pick is strictly based on the way Sweden want to finish in their group. I think they want to meet Switzerland much more than either Canada or Czech right? If they win Sweden wont be finishing 3rd, (Swtiz 2nd on the other group will meet third seed and Sweden is currently 3rd seed...) Granted Slovakia might not take the game seriously but so do the Sweden!!! If they loose to Slovakia they will meet the Swiss team in the quarter final! Here, even with a tie we win our bet with Slovakia +0.5 goal. I really like this pick and i am tempted to put 2 units on it but the spread is too high. (and will go higher believe me if people realize what is going on with the final seeds of every team for the playoff!!)
F** the spread i'm biting and make it a 2 units play!

2 more picks in Snowboarding, one goes tomorrow!
Mens giant slalom parallel:
SIMON SCHOCH +500 (1 unit)
nice odds here, he or his brother will get the gold, trying my luck with the underdog!
Womens giant slalom parallel:
DANIELA MEULI -120 (1 unit)
She "owns" the event and would be very surprise if she doesnt win...
As always, enjoy the games!

Big day today as we're having lots of our picks going on...
Mens Hockey:
