A friend from another forum sparticus brought this to my attention and myself a few others here and going to try this out and see how it fares..


What we're going to do is wager on the biggest ML fav but on the Runline instead. Myself and Natty bumpo will update and post the plays,results etc..


Remember this is for one month only, after the 31st no more.. :cheers

Well there was a little dispute on whether it was 26-4 or 24-7 so I left it out in case someone here researched it.. I personally think its a good idea.

Re: Playing the RL with the biggest ML fave in the month of August thread.. (8/1 to 8/31)

Glad to see a few on board with this. This is usually the time of year I start to bitch about how the books are really getting sharp on the lines and turn my focus to football. I really think I see why this should work for this first month after the trade deadline where half the teams out there are starting to see the reality and the teams in the mix will be overpriced for good reason. I would not be surprised to hear someone has posted this. Its something thats been out there. But whoever really deserved the original credit. Thank you..... that is, if we make some money.

Good luck to us.

I used closing lines from Wagerline. There were two days where the biggest fave was identical, so I came up with 33 plays. The record was 24-9.
