Point Spread Challenge - Week 1 Update...

All bets are in and most bets have been won and lost in the first annual Weasel Point Spread Challenge. Just to reiterate the rules, we are picking games with the point spread or the over/under bets on the board. There is no juice (house 10% take), so you either double up or lose your money on each bet. Max Bets are 10 units or 10% of available units, whichever is larger. Currently, Matt has bowed out and Brad, Mike and David are playing for a one night poker entry fee. Matt is still eligible to play if he so chooses. Also, how would everyone feel if I invited Greg in on this?

Anyway, let's take a look at the bets for last week and results...winning bets are in bold.

Greg - No Bets

Mike - $100 at beginning of the week.

LOSS - $5 on Kansas City (+3)
LOSS - $5 on St. Louis (-1)
WON - $5 on MN/Atl Under 35.5
WON - $5 on San Diego (-6)

Mike finishes the week with $100. No change.

David - $100 at beginning of the week

WON - $8 on Pittsburgh (-4.5)
LOSS - $8 on St. Louis (-1)
WON - $4 on Detroit (+2.5)
WON - $4 on San Diego (-6)
