As always, Good Luck and Play Responsibly.
LAS VEGAS — 13 weeks and 91 positions into The 7 Best and we are coming off an arduous, yet +EV session the previous do-si-do. Last week’s results yielded a 4-3 ledger but a miss on the week’s Top Choice. The 7 Best record sits at 46-45, 7-6 Top Choice, season to-date. This being an arduous competition (*using Friday numbers*) where I’m mirroring myself with real action against other contestants (bettors) who are competing in a well-known competition (CFFI), on a well-known network whilst using the same scoring system, I can (to minimum extent) stand behind this current record. It’s not what I’m accustomed to record-wise, but this is a tough competition and Friday numbers change everything. In relation to the scoring system for this project, this record equates to a total of 49.5 points (1.5 per TC win, 1 point per win, .5 per push). This stays relevant now and in the coming weeks as my departure in the competition comes when I would be the next eliminated in the CFFI. The good news is, there’s contestants , with like, 46.5 & 47 points, so, hopefully, barring another disaster-class, we don’t have to worry about elimination just yet. But full disclosure at this stage of the competition: a bad week and I’m toast.
Having all said, here are my 7 Best ATS/Total positions for this weekend across College Football and the National Football League.

CREATOR’S NOTE: This week’s 7 Best used odds from Circa Sports and William Hill on the day of publish (today). In the opinion of this author, Circa Sports serves as the premier destination in the brick-and-mortar Sportsbook genre in American Gaming and is a certain travel destination for those who visit the great city of Las Vegas. William Hill has the best overall betting menu and is the undisputed champion of soccer betting in the LV market. To be transparent with you, I don’t play at Circa because I’m not welcome, or at minimum not (action and person-wise) wanted. I’ve stopped playing on account at WH as, in my opinion, risk communicates with media entities on what I’m doing, which I find funny because that app doesn’t represent all my action.
