    Default 3 Big Bets today 2 Wins 1 Push

    All 3 games came down to the wire and made for very exciting football espically the stiff arm by LT. (Strongly Considered taking saints on moneyline wish I did would have been seriously intense moment when The jets took a shot at the field goal with 10 seconds left to win by 1 point)

    I was 4 for 5 today (loss to the spread) in my first week of football picks on Pinnacle.

    St Louis Rams (-3.5) vs Houston Texans
    Bet 10.30 to win 10.00 (1.971)
    OK That was just a retarded comeback...

    New York Giants vs Seattle Seahawks (-4.5)
    Bet 10.00 to win 10.00 (2.020)
    Eli Manning ruined my 8 point lead late in the 4th.

    Baltimore Ravens vs Cincinnati Bengals (-9.5)
    Bet 10.00 to win 10.10 (2.01)
    Carson Palmer is 2nd in the league to Peyton...

    Carolina Panthers (-3.5) vs Buffalo Bill
    Bet 10.00 to win 9.80 (1.980)
    This one scared me a bit. Carolina pulled through like they should though.

    Jacksonville Jaguars (-3.5) vs Arizona Cardinals
    Bet 10.00 to win 10.10
    I'll take it. Looked like Arizona was going to make it close at the end though.

    All in all, I think I got lucky in a couple of games but I will try to improve next week. In a week I have almost doubled what I started with ($59 CAD, I was testing the waters) so I hope I do better next week. I have tried a couple of NHL games but they are hard to predict unless it's Ottawa.

    I have another 10.00 on Indianapolis tomorrow. I am aware I have picked all favourites this week, but I am too much of a wimp to go for the underdog when it involves money.

    Beats the hell out of me, I didn't even know they took rake. Are those not the same payouts you're getting?

    I did, my friends favourite team is Toronto so I put a whopping $1 on them when they were playing Boston. I like most American teams more than I like Toronto... and I'm Canadian.
