Place Your Bets: Keeping it Simple

14 October 2011 570 views 15 Comments

For today’s betting lines, we’re keeping it simple. You can only bet on goal scorers. One twist is I’ll try to give you a line on every player who might actually score.

The Lines

Who will score against Houston?
Cooper 4:1
Jewsbury 8:1
Perlaza 8:1
Nagbe 8:1
Chara 10:1
Dike 12:1
Brunner 15:1
Alexander 16:1
Wallace 16:1
Zizzo 16:1
Danso 17:1
Chabala 17:1
Alhassan 18:1
Marcelin 20:1
Palmer 20:1
The field 20:1

The Rules

-Everyone gets $20 in monopoly money each week to bet with. Anyone can jump in at any time.
-If you are carrying a balance, you get your balance plus $20.
-Use it or lose it: If you don’t bet that week your balance won’t go up by $20.
-Leave your bets in the comments.

Balances:
@themikedonovan $190
Yax $94
Kejsare $80
@SeanWeiss $70
Alex $70
Clifford $60
Ken $55
AugustePDX $45

It’s the last home game of the season, so I’m pulling for everything that hasn’t happened but should have.

Alhassan 10
Zizzo 10 (guy’s gotta promote his food cart somehow)
Palmer 10
And, for good measure, Cooper 5
