I tried to pick Houston -4 for tonight's NFL game and got the following message. 

Due to the consensus for this game, we cannot accept your pick

What the heck is that?  Just because one side is being picked more than the other I can't select that side?  That's like a bookie afraid to
take more action.  I don't get it.

Hi there,

Please see below, taken from the Streak Survivor FAQ, for an explanation as to why this happened:

Why was a matchup removed from the pick sheet?

When there is an overwhelming amount of picks being submitted on one side of a matchup, the game could be made unavailable on the pick sheet. If there is future line movement on the matchup, it could once again become available for selection.

Thanks,

CT
