Four out of the five bets from round 1 day 1 won for a profit of $25.58 on $50 wagered. Marquette couldn’t even pull through with a win, let alone covering the spread. A winning day is never bad, especially on my first sports bets. Here are the games I took for the round 1 day 2 ($10 bets again).

Georgetown -4

Michigan State -4

North Carolina -11.5

Kentucky -3

West Virginia -4.5

Again I went with teams that are favored to win because I feel confident they are going to win. It also helped that I liked the spreads. My brackets picks didn’t do so hot, so I’m looking forward to making a few sports wagers each day of the tournament.

Update: I also decided to put $30 on Memphis at -13.
