    Is this a lock or should I wait until football?

    Been getting absoutely buried in baseball lately. Nothing major not like I owe a bunch of money or anything or need to leave the country b/c I owe a bookie but I'm kinda low on funds... My job sucks so I keep dreaming that I will make money gambling.

    Just about to give up on betting bases .. lost way too much money lately but this 4 teamer looks like a............................. (don't want to say the L word) but i don't see this losing.

    1. Cubs ML - Garza vs Wang
    2. Giants ML -Vogelsong vs Morton
    3. Phillies ML - Halladay vs Kuroda
    4. D-Backs ML -Hudson vs W. Rodriguez


    what do yall think pull the trigger or take a break?

    If the world was perfect & teams played as they should Id say put it & win. Right now on a monday I say 2 2 teamers are better

    A four teamer is NEVER a sure thing...especially in baseball. Do two-2 teamers or play them each seperately if you like all of them. Good luck with whatever you decide

    Yeah, maybe break it up into a few 2 teamers but if you are that worried about getting your money back, I would wait until football.

    Round Robin those if you are going to do parlays. 4 teamers are very hard to hit.

    Heavy chalk always looks good. If you're on a cold streak, take a break. If you must have action, drop bet size and consider a round robin with your three best picks. Football is my favorite. My account is loaded for the season and I have to fight the temptation to have some action. Parlays will eventually eat you up. They are fun, but if you're losing big on parlays and chasing, take a couple days off. Spend the time getting up to speed on a conference or two in College Football or getting up to speed with all the free agent movement in Nfl. Good luck either way.

    yeah i guess i will fight the temptation... football can't get here soon enough. Although I love the weather in the summer.

    Besides looking further at this play 2 of the pitchers I would be betting against Morton and Kuroda did not give up a run in their last start.

    If you do 3-4 plays, then you're better off doing 1st inning Yes/No than picking all 4 winners IMO.

    if your hurting on funds and need a higher chance of return then stay away from parlays completely-------------stick to 1 team and double losses until your buried in mounds of shit

    Stop trying to make all of the money today.

    You have to take it slow.
