WEEKEND WARRIOR: EVERY FOOTBALL PLAY, SAT & SUN, JUST $49!

Two days. Two sports. One pass. Get every Saturday College Football and Sunday NFL play from your handicapper, and every 5% max football release is in there too, no upcharge. Retail runs $78. You're in for $49!

Here's the edge most people miss: plays go out the moment they're released. Buy early in the week, and you get every play in real time, at the number your handicapper actually bet. Wait until the weekend, and you risk buying in after the line's already moved. The earlier you lock in, the more picks you catch at the right price.

This is the whole football weekend, wall to wall, for less than the price of a single max play elsewhere. Lock in your Weekend Warrior now and don't leave a snap or a number on the table.

NHL Hat-Trick All-Access Pass – Includes 5% Best Bets – ONLY $49!

Get every hockey play from your favorite handicapper for three full days. NHL, College Hockey, and any 5% Best Bets released on the ice, all for just $49.

That's only $16.33 per day for every premium hockey release your handicapper posts. You get instant access the moment plays drop, so you're on the best number before the lines move. 

Bought individually, these plays would run well over $100. The Hat-Trick Pass gives you three days of nonstop action for less than half that.

Bonus: Any international or overseas hockey played during your window is included at no extra charge.

Don't miss a single puck drop. Lock in your Hat-Trick All-Access Pass today and start cashing tickets!

7:07pm EST - Nov 5/2026

THE PLAY: 1P Total Over 1.5 (-146)

NHL - Chicago Blackhawks at Tampa Bay Lightning

Game Thoughts: This is a play on the first period total and over. It's been a money maker thus for when betting on quick starts in Lightning games and until the results reverse themselves we'll continue to play on this prop. The Lightning have gone over the 1P total in 12 of 14 games and 5 of 7 at home. For the Blackhawks that number is 10 of 16 and 5 and 2 on the road.

The play is Over 1.5 -146 First Period Total
