Well, finally had the come back to Earth week. Nothing is quite like getting kicked in the mouth with an 0-4-1 week, but if you would have told me at the start of the season I'd have a week like that and still be at 59.5%, I'd take it every time.

Week 15 NFL Weekend Gambling Picks

My fellow gamblers, good morning. I'm traveling again this week, so I don't have time for my normal research and write ups, please take these as much less confident than normal. I'm still planning on avenging the Thursday night loss though. I couldn't believe that fake punt at the end, that was where we were supposed to get our backdoor cover. Oh well, on to the weekend.

NFL Week 15 Thursday Night Gambling Picks

My fellow gamblers, good evening. It continues to be a great year for me, but not just for me. The sportsbooks are taking an absolute beating this year. This is largely coming from two factors. The best teams (NE, DAL, and KC) are covering machines while the worst teams (SF, CLE, and STL) are not pulling off anything. Those two bets are the two that the public favors the most, and when they're winning, Vegas is losing. That's also the type of winning that is fleeting. If you've been paying attention to my picks, you've noticed I don't just go against the bad teams or with the good teams. So yes, in general this has been a great NFL season for the gamblers, but at the very least I'm trying to tell myself that's not the only reason I'm sitting with a 63% winrate.

One thing that is awesome about teasers is when the line is in jeopardy, but you're safe. Having Oakland(+9) during the final drive on Thursday night made it quite a relaxing affair while people who bet the spread were biting their finger nails to the nubs when Oakland crossed into Chiefs territory. It's been nice hitting my teasers again. In the past they've always been a strength of mine and it's good to return to form there.

My fellow gamblers, good evening. Two weeks in a row now the Monday night game has gotten me. Nortmally it's considered the 'get right' game for people losing money on Sunday. For me it's turning into the 'lower yourself to another 60% week'. Although if I have to suffer through a win rate of 60% for the rest of my gambling career, somehow I'll manage.
