I’m off to Vegas for the rest of the weekend’s action, but the coverage of the tournament will continue uninterrupted here at BON. Before today’s picks, a review of the tournament’s first day, during which I bested AW against the spread on day one for the third year in a row. Don’t be fooled: this happens every year. AW comes limping out of the gate, I start with a flourish, and by the time the second round is complete I’ve totally fallen apart and Andrew’s ahead. On straight up and over/under picks, AW’s already got the lead:
AGAINST THE SPREAD: PB [10-6] / AW [7-9]
STRAIGHT UP: PB [12-4] / AW [13-3]
OVER/UNDER: PB [9-6-1] / AW [10-5-1]
