NHL Betting: Understanding the Concept of Zig Zag Theory
Ice hockey is one of the most popular sports across the globe. No wonder that betting on NHL is a favorite option of the gamblers after NFL, MLB and NBA. With numerous NHL games to bet on, making the right betting NHL betting pick is very tough but if you implement the right strategy you can look forward to reap huge profit in the long run. Zig Zag theory is one of the many NHL strategies and is implemented in NHL playoff betting.
You need to observe the performance of both home and on road teams. As per this theory if the weaker road team manages to win Game 1, then its chances of winning the Game 2 is around 35 percent. This happens because they have to face the bigger team coming off a win and playing on the home turf. So obviously the general public will bet on the home team to win. This is where you as a smart bettor have to capitalize on the great value provided on an upset, which is likely to happen around 33 percent of the time. Another thing that you have to look out for in NHL betting is that usually the team that is coming off a loss is more likely to win in the playoffs due to fear of elimination.
