The Iceman's 9-1 start to the MLB season in 2022 was overshadowed by his PERFECT 10-0 start to the NFL season, and his 22-3 (88%) start with college football. Keep in mind .. HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF! |

Fighting | May 15, 2021 Tony Ferguson vs. Beneil Dariush |
Total 2½ -162 at |
started |
This is a free play on Over 2.5. Tony Ferguson is now 37 years old, and coming off consecutive losses you might not think he has much left to give as a mixed martial artist. He will be an underdog here against Beneil Dariush, but don't expect this to be an easy fight by any means. Ferguson went the distance in his last fight, losing the decision to Oliveira, and his KO loss to Justin Gaethje came in the fifth round. In 31 professional fights, that was his only loss by knockout. He's also only lost once by submission. He should be able to stand in there for at least three rounds, and an upset wouldn't be that big of a surprise either. GL, Jesse Schule |

Soccer | Jun 03, 2023 Houston Dynamo vs St. Louis City |
St. Louis City -115 at SC Consensus |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Free | ||
This is a free play on STL. The Houston Dynamo are winless in away matches so far this season, and they lost 6-2 at Vancouver in their last match. It's been a successful first season in MLS for St. Louis, sitting just one point out of first place in the Western Conference. They are undefeated at home, and their +13 goal differential at home is the best in MLS. My money is on the home side. GL, Jesse Schule |

MLB | Jun 03, 2023 Phillies vs Nationals |
Nationals +1½ -159 at circa |
Lost $159.0 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on WAS. After losing Game 1 of this series in Washington, Philly now sits at the bottom of the NL East standings. Matt Strahm will toe the slab for Philly Saturday, and he's worked out of the bullpen of late. The Nats hand the ball to McKenzie Gore, who is 3-3 with a 3.57 ERA in 11 starts. The Phillies are 3-10 in their last 13 road games versus a left-handed starter. GL, Jesse Schule |

MLB | Jun 03, 2023 Mariners vs Rangers |
Mariners +1½ -142 at Ace |
Lost $142.0 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on SEA. The Mariners send a rookie to the mound today, but 23 year old Bryan Woo has been lighting it up in the minors. He looks to replicate what Bryce Miller has already done for the Mariners this season. Andrew Heaney will toe the rubber for the Rangers, and he's struggled against Seattle. He allowed four runs on four hits and two walks in a loss to Seattle this season, and he was 1-2 with an 8.10 ERA in three starts versus the Mariners the previous two seasons. Heaney boasts a sub 2.00 ERA on the road this season, but his ERA at home balloons to 5.34. The Mariners are 10-4 in the last 14 meetings in Texas. GL, Jesse Schule |

MLB | Jun 03, 2023 Cardinals vs Pirates |
Pirates +1½ -130 at YouWager |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on the Pirates. The Pirates are home dogs off three straight wins, despite the fact that they are five games ahead of St. Louis in the standings. Jordan Montgomery will toe the slab for St. Louis, and he's 0-2 with a 6.04 ERA in his last five starts. The Pirates hand the ball to Luis Ortiz, who is 1-1 with a 2.84 ERA in two home starts so far this season. The Pirates are 6-4 straight up in their last 10 versus St. Louis, but they are 8-2 on the runline in those games. GL, Jesse Schule |

Soccer | Jun 03, 2023 Chicago Fire vs FC Cincinnati |
FC Cincinnati -145 at Mirage |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on CINCI. Cincinnati sits at the top of the MLS standings, and they are undefeated at home this season. The Chicago Fire have just three wins in 15 matches, but they also have just four losses. They have been hanging around in games and have played to a draw eight times. While I am sure Chicago would be pleased with a draw here, it won't be easy. Cincinnati is eight points clear of the #2 ranked team in MLS (Nashville). GL, Jesse Schule |

Soccer | Jun 03, 2023 Manchester United vs Manchester City |
Manchester United +1¼ -122 at Ace |
Won $50 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on MUTD. These two rivals meet in the FA Cup, and Manchester City looks to complete a Treble (3 x Tropies). Standing in their way are rivals Manchester United, who are the only Premier League club to have won a Treble. There doesn't appear to be a lot of separation between the two clubs, who each won at home in the season series. Manchester United has only conceded three goal while winning four of their last five matches in all competitions. I expect this match to be close, and I wouldn't be surprised to see it go to extra time and penalties. GL, Jesse Schule |

Soccer | Jun 03, 2023 Portland vs Seattle Sounders FC |
Seattle Sounders FC -135 at SC Consensus |
Lost $135.0 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on the Sounders. While Portland has had the better of this rivalry in recent seasons, the Sounders look to be ready to reclaim their position as one of the top clubs in MLS. Seattle sits in first place in the West, a full 10 points clear of Portland. Seattle has just one loss in nine home matches, while Portland has just one win in eight away matches. The Timbers have scored just one goal in their last three matches, and they have scored just 19 in 15 matches overall. GL, Jesse Schule |

NHL | Jun 03, 2023 Panthers vs Golden Knights |
Golden Knights -130 at circa |
Won $100 |
Play Type: Premium | ||
This is a 4* play on Vegas. The Stanley Cup is the oldest trophy in professional sports. Going back more than a century, only once has a #8 seed won the Stanley Cup, and only three times has a team ranked lower than a #4 seed won a Stanley Cup. The Golden Knights are the #1 seed in the Western Conference, and if history is any indication you have to love their chances here. The Panthers have been riding a hot goaltender, and the feisty play of Matthew Tkatchuk. A 10 day layoff prior to this series could be a huge momentum killer for the visitors. I like the Knights to get off to a good start on home ice in Game 1. GL, Jesse Schule |
SERVICE BIO |

WHO IS THE ICEMAN? He’s no soothsayer and he doesn’t have a crystal ball, but Jesse Schule can indeed predict the future. As a professional handicapper, it’s actually part of his job description. His clients have accused him of secretly possessing Marty McFly’s Sports Almanac, but he tells us the secret to his success is thanks in part to his fascination with history. The idea that you can predict the future by studying the past is nothing new. Historians have been doing it for years. Career Highlights: - Perfect 5-0 Super Bowl Card (2018) - Perfect 6-0 NBA Finals Futures (2017) - Perfect 3-0 NBA Finals Futures (2019) - Perfect 3-0 NBA Finals Futures (2020) - Perfect 8-0 card X-Mas Day (2016) - Perfect 8-0 NCAA Tourney picks Sweet 16 - Final (2015) - Picked Germany +$700 to win World Cup (2014) - Picked Marcus Mariota +$700 to win Heisman (2014) Handicapping Methodology: Jesse is not a believer in systems, programs or number crunching formulas to handicap games. He is firm in his belief that you aren't playing against the sportsbook, you are playing against the average Joe (other bettors). Jesse is notorious for attacking inflated point spreads, soft lines and totals that are a little out of whack. He also relies on a nearly photographic memory with an uncanny ability to tell you a player's history and stats dating back for decades. Anyone can look up how many touchdowns a guy has scored, Jesse can also tell you about the ones that he almost scored. Money Management: His plays are rated based on a 5-10 star system, and he recommends wagering 0.2 percent of your bankroll per star rating. So a top rated 10* play would represent a bet equal to two percent of a player's bankroll. Signature Plays: AFTERNOON EXECUTIONER: This title is reserved for games with a start time between 12:00 – 4:30 ET. These are popular with action junkies who are dying for the games to get underway. The TERMINATOR: Jesse's signature totals play, the Terminator has established a reputation as one of the most consistent winners in Schule's repertoire. TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE: These plays represent a game where the stats show a significant trend which isn't reflected in the price. GRIM REAPER BLOWOUT: His signature play reserved for medium to large favorites. High percentage plays for those who don't mind laying chalk. HOT DIGGITY DOG: This is the Iceman's signature underdog play. About as rare as strawberries in December, you'll want to grab these whenever they are available |
