The last week started off pretty bad for us with Seattle kicking Philadelphia's butt in record fashion on Monday night, but then the rest of the week was good with NBA and college basketball churning a nice profit for us, that was until Sunday....Again!
NBA point spreads and totals went our way, but the betting public won on straight up moneylines. Overall BetCRIS grinded out a small profit in NBA but not without some players winning a few big parlays. One European player we have who regularly plays parlays with us played a 8 team NBA and College Basketball parlay on Wednesday risking $800 and won a staggering $140,357!
College basketball has been nothing short of terrific with some huge favorites going down and it seems that this year so far it seems to be attracting even more action than last year.
Sunday proves to be the Teaser bettors paradise, and while we were oh so close to having one of our biggest Sundays ever, we still lost. Straight bets, and even parlays on Sundays NFL were a winner for us, but Teasers just keep on winning like they have never done before. We had many games which were agonizingly close to breaking up ALL the teasers, but they just fell short.
Best games for the public..
The big Teaser games were definitely the best for the public with nearly every teaser in the world on Indianapolis, NY Giants, Green Bay, NY Jets and Pittsburgh.
The Giants and Green Bay were definitely hard games for us to endure considering how both Philadelphia teased us Detroit simply is just a bad team and continues to find ways to lose.
Best games for the house..
A bright spot for us was Miami beating a highly favored (13 points) San Diego by a slim 2 points. Miami was one of only a couple of games which 'broke up' some teasers. A late scoring touchdown by Baltimore could have possibly saved us an extra $US 1 million dollars. Denver were a highly fancied 14-14.5 point favorite and were cruising to an easy 9 point victory which was enough for all our teaser bettors, but a final drive by Baltimore provided a touchdown and a slight glimmer of hope for them to win, which would have been spectacular to say the least, but we'll take the final result of 12-10.
This week is another week off for College football and with teams like Indianapolis and Seattle clinching home field advantage people will be wary about the 'resting players' problem. The big bright side is the amount of teams in contention for the playoff spots and in the wild card spots.
Until next week
