BetCRIS: Weekly Review 10/02
NFL ‘Teaser' bettors
had another great day on Sunday and if it wasn't
for New England's upset victory over Cincinnati
it would have been an extremely dark day for us
here at betcris.com. Indianapolis, Dallas, Kansas
City, Atlanta and Chicago were all common teams
with teaser and parlay bettors. College football
this week was better for bookmakers but mainly
due to a few upset victories, none better than
Illinois's victory over Michigan State which I
have commented on below.
Baseball is now finally finished
with the regular season and Tuesday starts the
first post-season games with some terrific Divisional
Series match-ups. As of writing, they are...
San Diego -156 over St Louis
Minnesota -164 over Oakland
Yankees -325 over Detroit
Mets -155 over Dodgers
Best games for the house
this week...
Illinois's upset 23-20 victory
against Michigan State was the biggest upset for
the week by far. Michigan State was a large 24
point favorite at the point spread or a massive
-3000 for a straight ‘money line' victory.
Having Michigan State lose destroyed most parlay
bettors and killed one of our customers who lost
$60,000 while trying to pick up an easy $2,000
Rutgers won by a slim 2 point
margin on Friday defeating South Florida 22-20.
Rutgers opened a 3-point favorite and closed higher
at 4 points. The best part for us was most South
Florida bettors decided to take them for a straight
up victory; so needless to say, the 2 point margin
was perfect for us.
New England turned a potentially
disastrous day into just a bad day with their
upset victory over Cincinnati. Cincinnati opened
a 4 ½ point favorite and closed a 6 point
favorite. Even with two $20,000 wagers at kick-off
placed on New England, it still worked out to
be a great game for us.
Washington had to go to overtime
to defeat Jacksonville 36-30, but thankfully for
us, it was Washington who won. Jacksonville had
lots of betting support not only in straight wagers,
but teasers and parlays especially. Between New
England and Washington it at least ‘cushioned'
the blow of a bad Sunday NFL.
Best games for our Customers...
Florida defeated Alabama
28-13 and landed on a number which hurt us tremendously.
Florida opened being a 13.5 point favorite and
closed at the magical number of 15 points with
heavy support. Most people who played Alabama
took either +15 or +15 ½ points, so when
the game fell on the magical 15 number; it was
indeed a bad result for us.
Baltimore's come from behind
victory over San Diego was not received well here
at https://www.betcris.com/. San Diego opened a
2 point favorite and eventually the game closed
at ‘take your pick' after an avalanche of
money.
Kurt Warner may have lost
his starting quarterback's job at Arizona after
their loss to Atlanta 32-10. Most Teaser and parlay
bettors included Atlanta, and we thought we had
a chance until after halftime where it was all
Atlanta.
The final nail in our coffin
was the last game where Chicago won 37-6 over
Seattle. Chicago has been getting a lot of praise
for their offense lately, which certainly goes
well with their more recognized ‘stingy'
defense. Chicago closed a 3 ½ point favorite
and plenty of betting support, especially when
Seattle announced that last years MVP Shaun Alexander
was not going to play.
