One bet really caught my eye the moneyline bet on the Redskins vs Bengals. The 1-11-1 Bengals had been outscored 69-6 the previous 2 games and the Skins had to have this game to keep their playoff hopes alive. Seemed like a no-brainer so I bet $.24 on the Skins thinking this was easy money. 94% of yahoo users picked Washington in this matchup also.<br /><br />Cincinatti pulled off the upset, Washington's coach Jim Zorn job is now in jeopardy and I'm right back where I started at $.10...ugh!<br /><br />Dec 14 @ 1:00pm Football - NFL Lines FINAL<br /><table width="100%" border="0"><tbody><tr><td class="smaller" width="25%"><div align="left">Washington Redskins </div></td> <td class="smaller" width="10%"><div align="center">N/A</div></td> <td class="smaller" width="20%"><div align="left">-7 (-110)</div></td> <td class="smaller" width="15%"><div class="outline" align="left">-300</div></td> <td rowspan="2" class="smaller" width="30%"><div class="green_box"> <table width="100%" border="0"> <tbody><tr> <td rowspan="2" width="20%"><div align="center">36.5</div></td> <td width="50%"><div align="left">o (-110) </div></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="50%"><div align="left">u (-110)</div></td> </tr> </tbody></table> </div></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="smaller" width="25%"><div align="left"> Cincinnati Bengals</div></td> <td class="smaller"><div align="center">N/A</div></td> <td><div class="smaller" align="left">+7 (-110) </div></td> <td><div class="smaller" align="left">+250</div></td> </tr> </tbody></table> <br /><a name="BET_ID_10000000000062726"><span class="smaller">Bet $0.24 to win $0.1160</span></a> <a name="BET_ID_10000000000062726"> <span class="smaller"> <span class="success"><strong> +45% payout</strong></span></span> <br /><br />My pick: Redskins using the moneyline</a><br />Results Cin 20 Was 13<br /><br />See all my bets at <a target="_blank" href="http://www.centsports.com/?opcode=315737">www.centsports.com</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a name="BET_ID_10000000000326916"></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7962545534982905220-4802178076943924366?l=centsportsblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Colinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12893937516489510734noreply@blogger.com1
