Talking Streak for the Cash

Streak for the Cash: April 30th

It was a decent day for me yesterday. I went 2-1 in golf which was a surprise, and I finally didn’t lose at soccer (I didn’t play!). I made it to the 60 win mark for the month which was my ultimate goal, but next month I am going to focus more on a streak than I am straight picks. I had 7 streaks of 3+ so I will start to slow things down at 3.
Will MacKenzie
Villarreal B
Montreal
San Francisco

Pick of the Day: Montreal. You have to ride the Habs right now. 3 wins in a row over the Capitals, you have to at least believe that they will keep this thing close. An empty netter may spoil things.

Standings: W1 60-42-1 (.588)

Streak for the Cash: April 29th

I 50/50′d the soccer and then cleaned up for the rest of the day. (exception… I missed the Inter game, so the pick wasn’t official). I am going to try to not pick any soccer today, since I have somewhat of a streak going.

Rory McIlroy
Birdie
Any Other Score
Phil Mickelson
No Win
Phoenix

Pick of the Day: Burnett No win.

Standings: W2 57-40-1 (.588)

Streak for the Cash: April 28th

Rough day yesterday. I will be taking a new approach next month…..NO SOCCER! I am about to round the month out at .500 and at one point I was up well over .750. So what am I going to do to celebrate this drastic measure? Pick 2 soccer games today, oh yeah!

CSKA Moscow
Inter Milan
Montreal Canadiens
Denver Nuggets

My Pick of the Day: Since my locks have turned into, well losses, I will start calling it my “Pick of the Day”. You should probably take it as “I will pick the opposite of what you say”. Well it is…….. Montreal. I can’t keep being wrong about hockey.

Current Standings: L2 55-39-1 (.585)

Streak for the Cash: April 27th

As you might of guessed it, my lock of the day was a bust. I had no clue what I was talking about and it killed me, but the rest of my day was decent. Ended up .500, and I didn’t realize I was going to get in 4 picks so I missed one.

Ak Bars Kazan
2 Goals or Fewer
Phoenix Coyotes

Well Ak Bars Kazan has two Finns on their team, so that is a lock right there. I have been struggling with soccer lately and the Champions League seems like it isn’t quite as high scoring as it was previously, so I am going to take the 2. Then I really don’t like the Red Wings, so I will go with Phoenix. I am sacrificing the Lakers game, but with how they are playing I don’t think I would want to take that anyways. It could be a blowout, or they might lose. Too tough to call.

Lock of the Day: AK Bars Kazan. They on paper are slightly better, plus there is that Finnish connection. Really every pick I took today is extremely tight, this one just seems more likely than the rest.

Standings: W2 54-37-1 (.593)

Streak for the Cash: April 26th

I had a very uneventful weekend on SFTC. I think I got one pick in, and it was a loss. That is the only problem with traveling in areas where you don’t have guaranteed cell service. Here is the projected picks for Monday, April 26th.

FC Midtjylland
Boston Bruins
San Francisco Giants

It should be a relatively quiet day. The SFG pick might not open in time, but I am going to go with a easy victory and not have to make it to overtime.

Lock of the Day: FC Midtjylland. I don’t know if I am missing something, but they have the lead in the standings, and get the tie? It’s Danish soccer. I am sure anything can happen.

Current Standings: W1 52-35-1 (.598)
