After both of us scored big time in week five, Tony continued his hot streak, posting his second straight 3-1 week and winning $2,441 in week six. That gives him a two week total of $5,891 in winnings and puts him well in front for the season.
My week wasn’t bad – I came out ahead – but split at 2-2, winning $264. This is a heady place to be, particularly considering how poorly we performed in this space last year. Here are the standings so far:
Week five rocked. We both went 3-1 and both of us were, respectively, a second half choke and poor play calling from a coach who can’t commit to the run away from hitting our upsets and having perfect weeks.
Tony’s three $1,000-plus bets put him at up $3,450 for the week, pushing him ahead of me for winnings for the season. My more conservative bets netted a $1,764 profit – we’re both well over 30 percent ahead for the season, however.
It’s not always about getting every game right, but about which games you do hit. We both went 2-2 last week, but I hit one of my big ones and my upset while Tony took a big hit from the Steelers’ collapse against Tampa.
So I expanded a slight lead and now have about a $1,500 cushion for the season. Tony’s ramping things up even further this week, though, in his efforts to either get rich or hit the poor house.
We haven’t been dominant so far, but after a 2013 season in which neither of us really seemed to figure things out until the last couple weeks, we’re off to a decent start. Both of us are above 50 percent and ahead in the bankroll – my week three was even pretty solid, a $1,605 profit that nudged me ahead of Tony for the season.
Well, it wasn’t a great week of betting, but considering how wacky the on-field results were and how mediocre our straight-up picks went, I think we can be happy we survived and lived to bet another day.
Both of us went 2-2 in week two. Tony hit his upset which left him slightly up for the week. I missed mine so I was down. Both of us are incrementally up for the season so far. Here’s the standings board.
