Winter Betting Intel
These trends could lead you to a pretty greasy looking betting card. Road underdogs in that lowest expected point threshold looks most appealing based on this data, so let’s take a peak:
Road underdogs with a sub-38 point total
Houston Texans: They are 2-1-1 ATS in road games with a sub-45 point total this season
New Orleans Saints: 2-2 ATS when catching at least a FG (3-7 ATS otherwise)
Atlanta Falcons: Over their past 136 games, the Falcons cover 60% of the time when facing another bird team and just 45% of the time against non-fowl organizations. Facts are facts. (*CAM STATS*)
Washington Commanders: Four game unbeaten streak ATS on the road.
Week 16 DraftKings
My partner at Run The Sims, Justin Freeman, has put together an excellent thread (and fancy excel screenshot) of the chlak, optimals, and their combos. This is all for DraftKings. He posted a similar style chart for some other site, but I had never heaard of it. Something to do with Fan Death or jousting or something like that. Check Justin’s twitter for it if you’re interested…

Everything will be updated on Run the Sims after the actives are announced at 1140am ET as an FYI

If you wanna get down on the Xmas slate (bless your heart). Tambo and I discussed it on the DK show at the end. Here’s what the sims are saying. It’s a sad scene.
THE TIDBITS
TAMBO IS BACKKKKKKKKKK… with the tidbits.
RACE FOR THE MAYO CUP!!!!!
The MASSIVE Season-Long Golf one and done is BACKKKKKKKK and registration is now open. Same rules as last year: $125 per entry; Maximum of 5 entries.
JOIN: 2023 GOLF ONE AND DONE LEAGUE
The payout for MAYO CUP remains too. A juicy $50K up top, but flat payouts that go all the way down to 690th place. Almost 25% full already, so you best reserve your spot NOWWWWWWWWWWW
If you’re unfamiliar with One and Done leagues, it’s actually the least time consuming game you can play. And great entertain/$$$. You pick one golfer per tournament. You can only use that golfer once all season. The total prize money in said tournament from your golfer is added together all year. Most money at the end of the year wins $50,000.
Takes likes 30 seconds a week to get on the site and make a pick at the minimum. Plus, it’s a low effort way to give you something to root for if you’re trying to (or wanting) to get into golf.
