Today could be extremely painful.

Plays
220p Houston +149 2x

I hadn't expected the 'Stros to be this anti-public this morning. That's a trend throughout the league today.

Leans
The whole flipping card. Unless there is a Wagerline error, just about every game is playable in some way. I originally had WAS, ARZ, SF, TEX, BAL, SEA written down, but that wasn't even close as a first guess. If I was forced to put in tonight's card right now, it would probably have eight sides (WAS, ARZ, MIL, CHW, OAK, CLE, TEX, SEA) and four totals (PHL/WAS under, ARZ/ATL over, CLE/TB under, BOS/SEA under). I'm extremely interested to see how the consensus numbers change through the day.

Streak for the Cash
855a C. Hoffman over J. Ogilvie (Texas Open - Front 9)
135p T. Clark over J. Mallinger (Texas Open)
Current Streak: 0

Adjusting Bodog's 3-ball lines for these two, Hoffman ends up as an almost 3-to-2 favorite over Ogilvie for the whole round. It's a pretty easy pick here.

Later, the soccer game is a toss-up and I can't find a total anywhere for the rugby match. Leeds is favored by 12, so I'm guessing from what little I know about Rugby, that the over is the right play. Soriano would be a decent favorite over Pence for total bases and Clark is an adjusted 54-46 favorite in the golf match. Basically, I have no idea what I am going to do this afternoon. It could be any of the non-soccer matches.

Good luck.

For the record, I'm appalled you wake up before 5am. Secondly, we are fucked tonight.

Nice blog. Question: how reliable, exactly, is Wagerline? Isn't that site people just making their picks for "contests," i.e., they're not betting real money?

I ask because I came upon another site, which claims to track online betting:

http://www.thespread.com/mlb-baseball-public-betting-chart

They have STL/MIL as 50/50 action, while Wagerline has a 60/40 split in favor of STL.

Thoughts?

Hmmm, if you check that site now, it has a 60/40 split in favor of MIL.

For the record, you're still in college. I'm appalled you wake up before 8am. Secondly, I agree wholeheartedly.

I'll write a front page post about anon's comments either tonight or tomorrow.
