Season Record:

Individual picks ($100 on each underdog pick): +$1,635

Double Round Robin Picks ($10 on parlays of 2, covering every combination of underdog picks) +$864

Treble Round Robin Picks ($10 on parlays of 3, covering every combination of our underdog picks) +$1,570

Total of all parlays (doubles and trebles): +$2,434

Last week we bagged another 4 underdog wins to take us to 26 underdog wins predicted in just 8 weeks. It was an unusual week, with two games changing the favored team late in the day, yielding a win (Tennessee) and a loss (Minnesota). I try to avoid such late changes, but in the end, the Tennessee game tipped the scales heavily for anyone who picked late - something that can work in your favor in stranger weeks.

How to bet using Upset Watch

I had a few questions this week via our support channel about Round Robins. Let me briefly explain what they are and how they can work for you! You may have seen the round robin option on bet slips before and not understood it, but it is a key way to bet on underdogs.

A Round Robin is essentially, a number of smaller parlays within a parlay that mean you don't need all of your picks to win to pay out.

Rather than betting on a big parlay of (for example) 5 underdogs to win with huge moneyline odds, you can hedge your bets by betting on combinations of 2, 3 or 4 of them to win. 

  • For example, with 5 selections, there are 10 combinations of 3 winners that are possible. Rather than placing these all manually, a Round Robin option from your bookmaker automatically calculates the combinations for you.
  • If any 3 teams win (teams A, B and C for example) , you'll win that bet - even if the other 2 picks lost.
  • The smaller the parlays, the smaller the payouts - but the more likely you'll return a profit.
  • Round Robins are essential for making the most of Upset Watch.

With underdogs, the moneyline odds are greater for a reason - they're harder to get right! Because we're good at this, your chances of getting 2, 3 or 4 moneyline underdogs correct are vastly improved, as proven by our record. 

So far in 2021, we've hit 2 underdogs twice, 3 underdogs twice, and 4 underdogs an incredible 4 times in 8 weeks. That's why almost 5,000 people are currently subscribed to Pickwatch Pro and Upset Watch!
