    Letdown spot for MLB gamblers

    I always complain about having too much on my plate at once when MLB and football overlap, but it's hard to just pass on a night entirely now that baseball's been thinned down to the World Series. So used to betting daily on MLB, and now after basically seven months straight, I'm staring at this thin card -- especially before basketball starts -- and saying to myself, this is it? Really?

    Don't watch. Ever. Don't know anything about NHL, really. And I've been told reading lines and moves are just bullshit.

    Another sport I pay zero attention to.

    I have enough to keep me busy with baseball, basketball and football. I don't know how you guys take on all of these other sports in addition -- along with other forms of gambling. Always been amazed, unless you either have that much free time on your hands or you don't really cap games.

    You can't just blindly bet line movement/chase steam/follow RLM anymore and expect anything other than mediocre results.

    Why would chasing steam be good?

    Personally I don't blindly do any of those things you named. Line movement plays a big part in my gambling but I've never blindly bet it.

    I don't anymore, but I used to rather easily and had pretty good success at it a few years ago. That's partly what LB means about just betting a game without knowing anything about it.

    Tennis is beatable

    Much better than American sports although you need to watch a lot of matches and look at matchups

    Are you serious? I see posts around here all the time re: tennis being crooked and players tanking at the drop of a hat.

    Hockey and Soccer are awesome sports to bet.

    I always thought soccer sucked until I started betting it. It's actually quite exciting.

    I only play totals in soccer though.
