FFA Wagering Thread: THERE HE IS!@! (6 Viewers)

I really like BALT +137 in MLB tonight. Felix Hernandez has been awful in his last three starts with an 0-3 record, 9.0 ERA and 2.13 WHIP. I'll take BALT as a live dog here.

going on a limb and taking Temple +7.5 over Penn State. Any thoughts? I think Temple is very motivated, and would like to put this one under their belt that they can take down PSU
Lot of sharps are thinking the 7 1/2 is an overreaction to Penn State's impressive win over Navy this last weekend. Remember Temple was a 10 point favorite over Maryland the week before. That being said, I think O'Brien is a good coach and I think the line represents fair value. I don't have a lean either way. Navy is terrible.
 
Braves -137 for more baseball fun.Medlen has been probably the best pitcher in the game since the AS break,the Braves have won something stupid like 15? games in a row that he's started. I'll ride the horse until it breaks.just under 1.4 units to win a unit.
Did I mention how good Medlen is? BANG!

Thanks. i went light on Temple. I don't know crap about college football, just liked the hook attached to the line and I think this game means a lot to Temple. but like i said, i don't know anything about CFB, so we'll see
 
Biggest line values according to the power rankings I use:

1-Penn St. -7 1/2 (9 point differential) -WIN

2-San Jose St. +3 1/2 (7 1/2 pts.) -WIN

3-Kansas St. +14 (6 1/2) -WIN

4-Kent St. +4 (5 1/2) -WIN

5-W. Michigan +1 1/2 (5) -WIN

5-Utah +7 (5) -LOSS

7-S. Carolina -10 (4 1/2) -WIN

7-USC -16 (4 1/2) -WIN

9-UAB +37 (4) -WIN

9-Marshall -3 (4) -PUSH

11-Auburn +21 (3 1/2) -WIN

12-La. Monroe +7 1/2 (3) -WIN

12-W. Virginia -27 (3) -LOSS

12-Kentucky +24 (3) -LOSS

12-Georgia -16 (3) -WIN

12-Minnesota -1 (3) -WIN

FWIW.I've already locked in San Jose St. I may lock in a few more where I'm worried about the line moving yet tonight.

La. Monroe +7 1/2

W. Virginia -27

Marshall -3

S. Carolina -10 (immediately second guessed this one, so tread lightly)

Was primarily trying to lock in games that I felt I may have the line move against me before Saturday.

that giants line moved to the best teaser number in a hurry today. who bet it?
Giants injuries
Does he have a newsletter? :banned: Thoughts?
I played Carolina at +1.5 and I'd probably still play them at -2.5 but I see bookmaker has moved to 3, it's no play at 3. Good spot for carolina playing at home, giants have a short week and nicks/bradshaw/hixon all won't play along with a handful of other players listed as questionable on the defense which has been awful. Hard to get the new players up to speed with the 1st team with only a few days of practice.ETA: one other note, giants have that awesome front 4 that always causes problems but newton is the perfect quarterback to defeat that, size and speed.

Teased CAR up to +7.5 with the under 57 early yesterday and just did the same with NYG +8.5 and U55

Lets go middlesville on this biotch

 
Degen golf plays for The Tour Championship.

John Huh -125 over Scott Piercy. Piercy has not been all that hot, Huh the only rookie left standing. Both 1st time starters @ East Lake.

Zach Johnson-115 over Matt Kuchar. Kooch not showing much lately and has had the most precipitous drop in the fedex standings. Was 6th i believe before barclays and limps in at 27th. Zach could win this week imo.

Adam Scott -135 over OOsty. Scott plays well here. OOsty a tough out but like Zach, Adam might be your winner this week.

Furyk -115 over Garcia. I like this one the least, Serg on a semi hot streak leading into this and ryder cup. Furyk makes a statement for the Americans here.

Phil the Claw Mickelson to win @ 12/1 for 20 bucks. Come on...........MANBOOBS!!! 10 dollar plays on Zach 30/1 and Adam 15/1.

Edit: those are all tourney matchups. 1st round matchups, tread lightly.

John Huh+115 over Webb Simpson. Webb been cold.

Ryan Moore-130 over Ricky Fowler.

John Senden -150 over Scott Piercy.

Homer pick of the day

Cardinals -1.5

 
All in on Obama -300Is Chet around?
This dropped like a rock. It was -350 yesterday.
Yesterday was probably the absolute worst time to bet on obama and the best time to bet on romney
Nope. Barry is up to -400 today. This "prop" is officialy all over the place. It's also now a $1 line (Mitt is +300). I think thats proof that sportsbook no longer wants much more action on this. There were tech stocks in the 90's that didnt get traded this hard.

Meaning it's a big spread between what you can buy Obama and Mitt for. 400-300 - 100 or $1. If it was Obama -120 and Mitt was +110 it would be a .10 line 120-110 = 10 or .10. if that makes sense.

I was going to wait till tomorrow to update my plays for the weekend but this line is moving fast so I want to put it out there now.Wazzou -19 (now at -20.5) 2 units already booked might add another depending on how the week goes.They are playing colorado. Seriously take a look at wht colarado has "accomplished" this year so far. Fresno state absoloutely destroyed them. They lost AT HOME to SACRAMENTO STATE! They even lost to colorado state who couldnt beat North Dakota and San Jose State.Colarado couldn't be any more down right now. I think there is a real good chance the air raid puts 60 on them. If your going to tail I'd do so now because I think this is going to 21.
Ben Maller ‏@benmallerHow bad is Colorado's football team? Shocking 99% of bets are on Wash State -18.5 over Buffaloes this weekend. (Via Vegas Insider)
21..... do I hear 22?

The vig on -120/+100 is similar to -400/+300a little reading

Any thoughts on the college game tonight?

Boise St has been sitting there at -6.5 for over a week. It's almost too good to be true, I feel like something bad is going to happen if I take Boise St

I think BYU is a good team, but I think they are siginificantly better at home. I like boise tonight and the under if I had to play the total.BYU's best offense is the no huddle, but they go away from it every game for some reason. I think the home field advantage for Boise @night is a big deal. I think they win by more than a TD. I will say 27-13 or something...

Not true my freind. It opened at 7.5 and sat there all week till last night when it crossed 7 with a quickness. I think this will be a close game as I think both teams are equal. I really like byu plus 7.5. 6.5 I still like byu but I think it's a fair line. I can endorse teasing down Boise to .5.

I love chalk. Espeshaly in college where it's a complete mis match.
 
I took Boise St -6.

BYU coming off late-night loss to Utah and have to travel in short week. Boise State is always tough at home.

Wanted to play the over but couldn't do it.
