Crick's Picks: NCAA Tournament First Round Results
These are not Sportspicks "Recommended Picks"
- It was another ROLLERCOASTER RIDE through the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament, and we took some BRUTAL "Bad Beats"!! Our record should be much better than it shows currently, but that's the "Nature of the Beast" when it comes to sports-betting. We didn't lose money, especially if you cashed in on the "ML Parlay" on Friday at +1129 Odds!! However, if we can fade a couple tough (last second) beats, we'd be UP a SIGNIFICANT amount. These things happen, and ALL we can do is focus on having a BETTER weekend this time around!!

The listed line is the targeted line that is available in the markets; the "ok to" is if you cannot find that line, it is ok to take the pick up to that point; e.g., if it says "ok to -130" that means it's ok to take as long as it's not higher than -130 (e.g., -135) or if it says "ok to +13" that means it's ok at any spread +13 or ...
