Hubie's picks, take a look

-125 is way too much to pay for a half point. That is definaltely not a good play. Arkansas will either win or lose that game by more than 3 points. The Iowa play looks solid. The Houston play is a major risk. You may be giving points to a home team without your star QB even playing in the game. I would not take that risk. East Carolina should be able to cover that spread against a Va. Tech team that is now on life support.

That houston game was tricky but even if Case Kennum doesn't play UCLA is fsckin' awful. I dig houston even if he isn't playing. Hawaii I'm in love with at +11, Colorado is also fsckin' awful and Hawaii can score. I'm not too concerned with them traveling to CO.

Like the picks. Im on E Carolina to cover. Thinking of adding hawaii and depending on how the day goes, iowa is my late play.

I added last night the under for the NC St/cincy game and hit that, Also picked up the Cal game tonight

like 'em, and i don't think that 15 cents juice for the half-point on Arky was a bad buy at all.

Thanks Biff. I concur on Arky. Why not make it 3, the push on 3 is big..

Whose the chick in your profile pick?

yeah, my general rule is that i don't buy points, but i'll pay a little juice to avoid juice (i.e., buying a push actually costs you nothing, and saves the rest of your stake). Arky this week jumped out to me as a good spot for that. i haven't gone through the trouble of doing the math on that one, but i believe you could demonstrate that it has +EV.

i have the feeling that she pushed the same button inside my brain that Sharon Stone did when i saw Basic Instinct in high school. guess i have a soft spot for women wrongly accused of violent crimes that they maybe didn't commit...

i like it

hubie69 · 09-17-10, 11:30 AM

hahahaha. I take 'em however I can get 'em.

i kinda fell in love with a couple of picks over the weekend, ARK for sure being one of them and Hawaii. The hawaii line move last night to +12 and I have a suspicion it's going to move again.
