Otterline Report – January 27

Chris recaps yesterday's results across the NHL and NBA, including a massive 6-1 night for the NBA model. The episode covers why human bias kills your win rate and how betting every edge instead of cherry-picking leads to better long-term results.

The LA vs Columbus game was postponed to March 9th, and Boston's overtime loss stung. Chris also discusses why hockey is considered the hardest sport to model due to single-play variance.

No NBA picks today—every game has heavy favorites where the market and models align, leaving no value on the table. NHL has a loaded slate with nine picks, all at half-unit sizing for proper bankroll management.

Today's Picks

• Toronto Maple Leafs
• Utah Hockey Club
• Montreal Canadiens
• New Jersey Devils
• Boston Bruins
• Dallas Stars
• Washington Capitals
• San Jose Sharks

Chris also walks through the new tiered betting system in the lab, explains why he's betting against his own team (Florida) for the first time, and breaks down why Vancouver is a fade every night.
