BetCRIS: Weekly Review 09/11 September
11th – The
first week of NFL action has produced some interesting
results so far, especially NFL Sunday with 8 road
teams winning. The NFL season kicked off with
Miami at Pittsburgh Thursday without Pittsburgh’s
star quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger. Charlie
Batch filled in well however and triumphed 28-17
in a game which we took a staggering amount of
bets. We are glad NFL is here and it is just amazing
how many people betting football so far this year.
NFL best games for the
bookmakers…
St Louis defeated Denver
18-10 with St Louis not even scoring a touchdown.
Denver closed a 4 point favorite with lots of
parlays and teasers being placed on them but with
St Louis winning by 8 points, even players who
bet 10 point teasers on Denver were disappointed.
Dallas was a heavily bet
team this week against Jacksonville, so much that
Jacksonville opened a 3 point favorite but after
a flood of money, Dallas closed a 2 ½ point
favorite. With all the press Dallas has been receiving
lately, including Terrell Owens, our customers
translated that into betting $$ on Dallas. Jacksonville
fought back after trailing early and triumphed
24-17.
NFL best games for our
players…
Normally Kansas City playing
at home is a good bet, but not this week after
Cincinnati destroyed them including Trent Green
23-10. Trent Green went down after a big hit in
the 3rd quarter which halted any thought of a
come back by Cincinnati. Kansas City opened a
4 ½ favorite but we couldn’t find
many bettors for them and Cincinnati closed the
favorite by 1 ½ points.
Another big game for our
customers was Chicago killing Green Bay 26-0.
Green Bay was never in the hunt and Chicago easily
covered the 3 ½ points.
While it was great to welcome
back NFL with a decent weekend of results, College
was definitely a week for our customers. The most
popular games which our customers bet and made
big $$ were Ohio State winning 24-7 over Texas,
California 42-17 over Minnesota U and Missouri
34-7 over Mississippi.
The American hopeful Andy
Roddick tried his heart out, but odds-on favorite
Roger Federer claimed the US Open men’s
title and Maria Sharapova claimed the women’s.
The first week of the tournament was plagued by
rain which always hurts betting action, but this
week’s action was great, especially with
most games having good action on both competitors
in the matches.
Tonight is another football
frenzy night with a landmark two Monday night
Football games. The NFL has really ‘tweaked’
their schedule this year for television which
is great for us and bettor’s around the
world. All of this is just one day after the two
Manning brothers’ took centre stage…
Until next week,
Shane Catford
