Sufficient carry-over in today's pick 6 to inflate pool on final day. Great card, liked sequence enough to forgo partnering (was approached by numerous players) and go solo with significant...

I'd bet my (good) knee the WNBA has "creatively" fashioned a package to make her wealthy. My hunch is the league already has new sponsors pounding at the door, and those entities have extended...

Everybody bets the flow. These days if I don't differ with the apparent public take on how a race will unfold, I rarely wager.

Comparative Strike-Rates of First-Call Leaders
