Tuesday Best Bets, Monday Recaps
Monday was mostly spent recovering from a very busy but profitable weekend.
We also watched as the line is the AFC Championship flipped from Chiefs -1 to Bengals -1.5. We'll have more on that later, but suffice it to say it continues to pay off to pay attention to our advance NFL plays on “The Greg Peterson Experience” – which have gone 22-12 ATS (64.7%) since the start of November – and in these daily columns as we hope our followers were able to lock in the 49ers +8.5/Bengals +7.5 teaser before the line move.
We didn’t have an official Best Bet in Monday’s column as both of our NBA anti-swagger plays were favored, though I did go on Twitter (@ViewFromVegas) late Monday afternoon to say that the Grizzlies had moved to +2.5 and was my play of the day. I know Ja Morant was out, but the Grizzlies have won without Morant in the past and it was more of a play against the Kings, so I went with it. It didn’t work this time in the 133-100 loss, but longtime readers know that we’ve had a lot of success going against line moves (see the Bengals vs. the Bills on Sunday). At least our other recommended play on the Bulls -1 vs. the Hawks in their 111-100 victory came through for those willing to bet short faves. Let’s recap the rest of Monday’s betting action and then look for Best Bets on Tuesday as we return to the ice.
Monday Recaps
CBB: No. 17 Baylor beat No. 9 Kansas 75-69, but it wasn't an upset as Baylor closed (and covered) as 2-point home favorite. Nevada beat No. 25 New Mexico 97-94 in double OT, but it also wasn't an upset as UNR closed (though did not cover) as 3.5-point home fave.
