Looking to throw down a little coin on a Saturday afternoon or evening? Here are a few bets that may help you double your allowance.
NBA
Sacramento +6.5. Minnesota is in a must win situation, but that will not scare the Kings who believe this is their year to rise to the thrown. (Yes, I worked on that pun for 15 minutes). Anyway you slice it the game will probably be fairly tight and fairly high-scoring. I don't see Minnesota blowing out the Kings. And let's not forget the Maloof brothers (who own the Kings) own the
hottest casino in Vegas. Coincidence? I think not.
MLB
Chicago Cubs -1.5. Jason Jennings (COL) Vs. Greg Maddux (CHC). Maddux has been nasty of late. His last three starts have been very good, Old School Maddux if you will. Jason Jennings has not been so good. He gave up 6 Earned Runs on Monday and his E.R.A. actually went down a little. Not to mention the Cubs hitting is startingto come alive. Take the Cubs, give the runs.
Looking for a place that will take your action? I have used these guys for years, so I can vouch for their credibility, although sad to say I have never actually had to collect.
