Default Wagerline survivor contest

http://www.wagerline.com/sportsconte...aderboard.aspx

Wagerline has a free contest where they give away $100,000 if you can pick 21 against the spread in a row. Someone is at #20 and is picking for the $100k. He has until 4/24 to pick.

What game would you pick prior to that data ATS?

My best streak is 5.

Sucks they limit the games you can pick, but I guess thats how they make it so damn hard keeping odds between like -130 to +130 or something. He should pick a random Arena Football game and let it ride!

I imagine he would be hedging, no?

Unless he thinks wagerline might stiff him for the 100K

Try to find at least a zero cent arb for sure.

I have a streak of 4 going and I will pick the BoSox today against the skankees. A-rod's luck has run out.

Freightdog has not picked yet, but I would imagine that this weekend would provide enough choices.

On further thought, it doesn't need to be an arb. Simply pick the team with the best odds of winning according to the market for the Wagerline contest and then hedge by betting the underdog. Should lock in over 50k of profit.
