WINFO Issue #25

THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY
BLOG PICKS AT 14-3 ATS
We’ve been on a nice run with
our Blog Picks on the site
since we launched, climbing to
14-3 ATS with the 17 we’ve highlighted.
Last week we posted two plays,
which both won.
Sometimes these are picks we
handicap that day, and a few times
they’ve been plays we’ve pulled from
the weekly Winfo issues that we’ve
particularly liked and wanted to make
sure everyone had a chance to see.
We should have a couple of Blog
Picks this week as well.
You can find them here - Winfo Picks
Blog Picks Record: 14-3 ATS
TSN Team1040 Blog Picks
And we serve up more blog picks
each week on our TSN Team1040
Blog Page. Last week we had a 2-0
day with our soccer picks, while this
week hasn’t started out as well, as we
dropped our play on the Draw (+225)
in the FC Porto v Juventus Champions
League match.
I Hope It Was A Damn Good Pie
Anybody up for a steak and potato
pie at the football match? Of course,
sounds positively marvelous.
What you might want to avoid though
is eating that pie during the game
if you happen to be a player in the
match and there is a betting line on
whether you’ll be seen eating a pie.
And if by chance that is a scenario you
find yourself in, you will also want to
steer clear of telling a bunch of your
mates that yes, indeed, you will be
shown on TV enjoying a pie, guaranteeing
them a profit.
The above is the exact opposite of
the approach Sutton United back-up
goalkeeper Wayne Shaw took.
The result is the rather rotund keeper
is no longer with his team after having
to resign for breaching betting rules
during his sides FA Cup tie against
Arsenal last weekend.
While innocent enough in theory,
c’mon what are you thinking.
All his buddies that were tipped off hit
the bookmakers who were offering the
“pie” betting option at 8-1.
Funny enough and Shaw does seem
like quite the character - more about
having a laugh and helping his mates,
rather than trying to upset the integrity
of the game with a nefarious fix.
March Madness Betting Tips
Sitting on a heated Yaletown patio
with long-time Winner’s Edge
contributor Jason Holliday enjoying
a beer and the conversation turned
to college basketball. Jason is an
exceptional handicapper in a few
sports, but the NFL and college basketball
are the two areas he focuses
most of his attention (Jason hit over
62% NFL winners with over 70 picks
in print for us).
I asked if Jason would do a few
March Madness handicapping tips
articles for us as we head toward the
big tournament.
You can read his first one in this
issue – with Jason highlighting two of
the key stats that he looks at to start
his handicapping process when the
bracket has been set.
He’ll be back next week with another
couple of tips.
Enjoy this week’s issue and best of
luck with all your plays!
ANYBODY UP FOR A STEAK AND POTATO PIE
AT THE FOOTBALL MATCH? OF COURSE,
SOUNDS POSITIVELY MARVELOUS.
