BetCRIS: Weekly Review 09/19
The Denver Bronco's
upset win over New England capped off a ‘turn
around' NFL Sunday from last weeks disaster. Sunday's
NFL was decided in the bookmakers favor by results
like Baltimore not covering the spread and upset
St Louis and Denver results.
College football however
was the bookmakers ‘Achilles Heel' this
week, at least here at https://www.betcris.com/.
Apart from a few decent results on Saturday, the
week of College Football belonged to our customers.
Best games for the house....
Denver defeating New England
on Sunday night was by far our best result for
the week. There were plenty of New England bettors
willing to lay the 6 points at home, or mostly
including them in Teaser and parlay bets.
Baltimore's last minute field
goal to win 15-14 over Cleveland was nearly a
perfect game for us with most people prepared
to lay the 6 to 7 points Baltimore was favored
by. Had Cleveland held on for the victory, we
would have beaten every teaser and parlay bet
for the day and it would have turned into a ‘Million
dollar game', for us.
St Louis defeated Arizona
16-14 in a game where Kurt Warner wore the brunt
of the Arizona loss with 3 interceptions and a
lost fumble. Arizona were heavily bet at home
with an opening spread of 4 ½ that closed
at 5 points.
Best games for the players....
Indianapolis Colts at home
defeating Jacksonville 21-14 was a ‘bettors'
result with the Colts opening a 6 point favorite
and closing at 7 points. The majority of Jacksonville
bettors we did have either bet Jacksonville +7
points, or even bought a half point to +7.5 so
it was a great game for our customers.
Chicago also came from behind
and won 19-16 over Minnesota in a game where it
looked like Minnesota had a victory all sealed
up. The Chicago spread was anywhere between 3
and 3 ½ points so when they came from no
where to win by 3 points, it hurt us immensely.
Our worst result in College
Football for the week was Notre Dame winning 40-37
over Michigan State. Notre Dame came from nowhere
to win by 3 points which was exactly where our
spread was ‘bouncing' around. We opened
Notre Dame 3 ½ points, and closed them
lower at 3 points, but any time we have a spread
like that, and it lands on the number of 3, it
really hurts bookmakers.
Europe concluded a
big victory to retain the Ryder Cup golf on Sunday.
After Tom Lehman announced his team, a flood of
money came for Europe, but thankfully for us we
had many patriotic American's out there for the
tournament to be a good one for bookmakers. We
had to pay one ‘unpatriotic' gentleman who
was the first ‘Europe' bettor for a single
bet of $10,000 on Europe, but the tournament was
still good for us.
Until next week, Shane
