    VB's Baseball Selections

    I know there are loads of other threads all trying to prove they are the best or maybe just trying to get a decent strike rate. So here is mine, may come to nothing but I want to try my bets and by posting them I am hoping it will help me bet on what I want rather than loads of random stuff.

    Anyway, basic rules, 3 game chase if/when I hit losers. After the 3rd losing bet I will just more on to the next series. Im also going to put up my bet values (betfair and each Line is aiming to win £5 (after comm))

    Currently got 6 bets for tonight so I am starting with 6 different lines:

    Line 1: BALT to WIN (Bet 1) £4.20 @ 2.26 to win £5.30
    Line 2: KC to WIN (Bet 1) £5.40 @ 1.98 to win £5.30
    Line 3: COL to WIN (Bet 1) £4.80 @ 2.10 to win £5.30
    Line 4: NYY to WIN (Bet 1) £4.30 @ 2.22 to win £5.30
    Line 5: CLE to WIN (Bet 1 ) £3.30 @ 2.60 to win £5.30
    Line 6: WSH to WIN (Bet 1) £3.40 @ 2.56 to win £5.30

    Bank starts at £1,000 and I have no targets as I dont know how this will pan out. Will update this as and when, once I get an idea if I can make anything.

    Thanks

    I like the strategy going in. What is your per unit value? I'm not sure if your risking a certain amount regardless of the line to win the same amount or not.

    Im just looking to win 0.5% of my bank per each betting line. Each week I will update the amount I aim to win to what ever 0.5% of my bank is.

    Doesnt sound a lot but its to keep the bets under as much control as possible for if/when i hit a 3 game losing streak.

    Hopefully my bank will increase as the week progresses and then next week I canlook to win a little more

    An excellent win for The Mets tonight, 7-0 down and looking out of it but they turned it around and won 9-8

    A stomping win for MIN over KC to give us another winning B bet. That all lines currently finished and all winners so far.

    Will look at todays bets a bit later.
