Weekly Betting Roundup for February 22-28
B. Sharps / Head Linesman / Legends
Monday rolled around with a small win for the house. It picked up big wins on Washington and the Bucks in the NBA and lost on Dallas, and it also took a beating on U Conn as the public correctly found them.
Tuesday was a good NBA day for the books as New Orleans and Memphis brought home wins and the house also won on Florida in the college; the players countered strong with Florida, Syracuse and Old Dominion (slowly becoming one of the more popular public choices, the Monarchs are).
Wednesday the house won big with Dallas in the NBA only to give most of it back with Orlando winning for the players. In the college, the house won with FSU and lost with Ohio State and Fullerton (a high volume game) that fell 2 to make all bets on that game a win or a push.
Thursday the house picked up big wins on Oregon and ASU in the college and lost on a key NBA game as Milwaukee fell 2, with a game like that that jumps around plus the public correctly betting it was a disaster and in the college folks seemed to take their winnings over to Gonzaga (another very popular team) to put the books in the hole for Thursday.
Friday was a big day for the books as they won with New Orleans (NO), Dallas, Philly and Princeton and only lost the Cavs game to have a big night.
Saturday was a huge board; I’ll only touch on a few key ones I could talk for five paragraphs on if I wanted to. The house won with Jersey in the NBA and college with George Mason, Tennessee, Saint Bonny, Maryland and VCU (once again opposite Old Dominion, a public darling) and the books gave some back on North Carolina (which is getting back in the public’s good graces) and UNLV and believe it or not Drexel cost the books a big number. Still with the huge schedule it was an ok day for the house but not what you would expect as the players won a lot of little decisions.
Sunday was a big day but I need to focus on Olympic hockey. First off, congrats to both teams on the best game I’ve watched in many years, and congrats to the US backers who cashed their tickets 2-2 regulation final but if I had to lose the Gold medal I was glad it was the best player in the NHL who scored it: Sidney Crosby. It was a great game. The day was a giant washout; the players won more games than they lost and the books were lucky to get out with their limbs attached.
Good luck guys; talk to you next week!
