I've seen a few posts made, and have made some myself, about betting the OPPISITE side of the "Obvious" plays or "vegas gift plays. Is it just me, or does this game tonight seem like vegas is giving us a "gift?" I adore the raider tonight, and from the looks of it so does EVERYONE else. Every where I look it's raiders, raiders, raiders, and over, over, over. Is anyone else having a hard time pulling thie trigger on this one? It just seems kinda "obvious"

Fred - Raiders only approx 56% consensus pick, wouldn't consider that 'obvious' at all for a MNF game...

GL with what u play :cool:

Public slightly on the Raiders. Probably would be more but maybe they are wising up after getting slapped taking favorites week after week, and dogs covering at a record rate.

This board tilted slightly more towards the Jets...but lots of Raider support coming out now.

I'll go with the board and go Jets. :) And the Under...I think everyone is looking at all the pts the offences have been scoring. Look at all the good offences these two teams' D's have shut down recently.

I hear ya Hitman. Figures, you go cold, so do I. And OF COURSE, we're on the same side and total tonight...as always!

I guess we're not winning any contests for $10 Grand this year huh? LOL Hell in the contest here I've started trying to pick losers as I'm closer to the last-place prize than the 1st. At this point I'd just be happy winning my bar eliminator pool.

I knew it. Even if the raiders win this game by 14, right now the jets are up 7-6, and Of course it isn't going to be as easy as many raider backers thought it would be. The 6.5 seemed way to much like a "Vegas gift." and we all know, Vegas doesnt give gifts. It's amazing!! Every time there is a game where it looks to easy, go the other way, and you'll be a much less frustruated gambler. I'd so much rather have the jets right now in a close one, than the raiders. Having to sit here and think "what the Hell is the matter with the raider offense?" blah blah blah. I love these types of bets. Play against the obvious!!!

I love it!

Hear ya, GM. Well, we got em on Mon Nite, anyway. They can't catch us on that one. Really tough time lately, can't even pick my nose if I had to.........No, we arent winning any 10 grand this year !!!!!! Last year is a fond but distant memory.
I am gonna give it one more shot for this year, as I have serious thoughts of hanging it up for the season. Sometimes, good things happen when you are hanging by that last thread.
GL this week & for the rest of season.....THE HITMAN
