Recap: 1-0
Record: 11-11
Okay, banked a unit yesterday to get back to .500, but also have to make up for 1.1 unit in juice now. Have today and three more weeks of the regular season to get into the plus side.
Here are the consensus numbers I have for today:
Mich 3, DC 7; Ov 2, Un 5
SA 7, Hou 2; Ov 0, Un 5
Totals with a differential like I have in both games today (3 or >) have a record of 5-2. BUT, what I don't know is what the breakdown of that 5-2, what was the record for Overs what was the record for Unders.
So I'm going to go check my charts and be back with that info.
Here's what I found: Unders are 2-2, which means the real value is in the Over in these spots (like yesterday with Mem/Arl) at 3-0.
No edge for Unders.
DC and SA consensus numbers show a differential of 4 or >.
My charts show teams in this spot have a record of 6-4, so a slight edge there.
We have what I call a Flip Flop Fav in Mich/DC (when I ran the sports book we had to have our parlay cards down to the print shop on Monday morning. Wednesday night was our last chance to make any changes, for example when the team that was the original favorite was now the dog. We'd have to call the print shop and tell them to flip-flop the teams, with the new favorite being put on the left side of the card and the former favorite flip flopped to the right side of the card.)
I see three other times there were FF Favs this season and all three original Favs lost, SU; 2-0-1 ATS.
Looks like following the money is the right way to go so I'm going to lay the points with DC I hope I don't get screwed by missing out on the better line -1, 1') that was available earlier.
DC -2'
