We even speculated that betting dogs across-the-board might be a winning strategy, at least until this streak runs out. We even called this betting angle, "Grand Salami for Dogs."
Well, the angle didn't perform well yesterday (Friday's games). Betting all the dogs produced 6 wins and 9 losses...for a net loss of -110 (flat betting $100 on each dog). Here's the breakdown:
Pittsburgh -100
Baltimore -100
Washington +145
Cincinnati +125
Detroit -100
Milwaukee -100
Arizona -100
Philadelphia +130
Seattle +100
Toronto -100
Kansas City -100
Colorado -100
LA Angels +135
Tampa Bay -100
San Fancisco +125
Let's go back to the well, once more.
Even with a small loss on Froday, since April 1st (the start of the 2021 season) betting every single underdog team across the board in every game would have produced a whopping +55.10 unit profit (flat betting $100 per play on every dog = plus $5,510.). That's unbelievable, but true.
Including Friday, these pups have gone 212-237 outright.
Let's run with the experiment one more day and see how it goes. Saturday's schedule and odds are as follows (at SPREADS.CA):
