Celtics vs. Heat 7:00 PM ET Game# 701-702 Play On: Under 209. (10*) These teams went over the total in the opening game of this series on Tuesday night. Miami has gone under 5 consecutive times following an under in their previous contest and those games went under by an average of 1. Points per game. Boston has gone 9-3 to the under during these 2020 NBA Playoffs and 2 of the 3 overs were due to a pair of games going overtime. As a matter of fact, both games that required extra time were tied by an identical score of 98-98 at the end of 4 quarters, and that includes Game 1 of this series. Furthermore, Boston has allowed 101 points or fewer in regulation time during 10 of their 12 postseason contests. Despite the double overtime thriller on Tuesday won by Miami, both teams combined for an extremely low 173 field goal attempts. These teams witnessed all 3 of their regular season matchups go under the total. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager. |

Bengals @ Browns :1 PM ET Game# 101-102 Play On: Bengals +6.0 (5*) Cleveland is coming off an embarrassing 38-6 loss at Baltimore last week in a game they closed as a 7.0-point underdog. This sets up an NFL betting angle below that strongly supports the road underdog. Any NFL away underdog of 9.5 or less versus an opponent coming off an away underdog ATS loss in which they allowed 35 points or more, and they failed to cover by 10.0 or more, resulted in those away underdogs going 46-12 ATS (79.3%) since 1981. Bet on the Bengals plus the points for a 5* wager. |

Ross Benjamin has made his reputation in the sports handicapping industry by being one of the sharpest prognosticators over the last 15 years. In professional sports handicapper Ron Raymond’s 2008 published book “50 Greatest Sports Betting Secrets” he probably says it best. “One of the most underrated handicappers in our industry and probably one of the sharpest ones I know is Ross Benjamin.” One of Ross’ often used phrases when speaking publicly, “if you want to be a successful sports handicapper then start by thinking like a bookmaker”. Ross is 61 years old and has been directly involved in many capacities of the sports gaming industry for the last 31 years. However there is nothing he enjoys more than the challenge of picking winners in the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NCAA Football, and NCAA Basketball.
