Trying for a middle on the WAS/NE game. I've got:

WAS +17 -115 5.75u
NE -15.5 -110 5.5u

4 outcomes:
1) NE wins by 18 or more - lose 1st, win 2nd, -0.75u
2) NE wins by exactly 17 - push 1st, win 2nd, +11u
3) NE wins by exactly 16 - win both, +22.5u
4) NE wins by 15 or less or loses - win 1st, lose 2nd, -0.5u

The bet is +EV if the probability of case 2 or 3 occurring is > ~8%. From the analysis I've done, I think this is true.
