Hi mikey
I'm going to give you a few web sites that have to do with hockey and sports betting.
The first is hockey.cbc.ca
It's not a bad site but the best part is you can watch Coaches corner if you have realplayer plug in.

The other site you should visit if you are a sports bettor is
aljsports.com

This is a pretty good site and deals with the various provincial sports lotteries (except toto) and how to play them. He has written some very good articles and has them posted as well.
Al J has written a book which is all about provincial sports lotteries which I bought. It's a pretty tough read and I'm going to have to read it a second time, but I think its well worth it.

If you play Toto you must live in B.C. (as do I) I think the trick to winning at the NFL toto is to predict the upsets. I know you're thinking "yeah right" but to win big like the $20,000+ prizes that is what you have to do. Picking the favourites leads to ruin, and even if you are right you don't win very much because everybody else is playing the same. I think playing a 9-4-0 or 9-3-1 or something in that range while predicting upsets is the best way to go. I know a group of 3 people a couple of weeks ago who got together and played a 5-6-2 for $144 and ended up with 10 right (and out of the money).
About 3 years ago I won $2500. with 11 right. Nobody had 13 or 12 and 19 of us had 11.

regards,
Jerry
