And speaking of action, I have plenty already booked for this weekend. Last week was a disaster, and after a less than stellar week one I am already down more than six units. Last year I was down more than ten units at one point in the season and still managed to break even (actually won a couple bucks) but this is not a fun habit to get into. Hopefully I can turn it around this week. Here is what I am on for the weekend:
Overall: 9-15 -6.7 units
College Week 3 NFL Week 2
Michigan -46
Ohio State -17
USC -8.5
UCF -17
Michigan St -5.5
OK State -22
Tennessee -3
Saints -2.5
Bengals -7
Texans -7.5
Falcons -3
(In Vegas adding 2nd half under in UNLV game - under 30)
It makes me nervous to see that I have all favorites, but it is also largely a myth that dogs cover more than favorites (at least the last couple of years) so I will roll with my picks and hope for the best. I am sure that when I am in Vegas I will also make a random degen parlay or teaser in the sportsbook.
I don't know if we will get there in time but we might take in the UNLV game Friday night. It is a nationally televised ESPN game and I think it will be a blast!
I probably actually won't play a ton of poker this weekend. I am looking forward to checking out the new Venetian Poker Room and will definitely play a tournament there (I love their daily 12PM tourney) and maybe some live games, but this weekend is more about football and relaxing. I plan on having some drinks by the pool and heading downtown to play some Sexy Blackjack at the Gold Spike. It is an old school downtown joint that has been remodeled and they still have the old school Vegas feel and they treat me pretty well. And, well, the blackjack dealers are sexy!
Here is an example of the quality of dealer at the Gold Spike.
