LAD,

SD,

woodman663 · 07-09-09, 05:17 PM

As with my other tailing bets, put 0.5 unit on SD.

Already on Dodgers big and had Florida as well so hopefully we can recover from a bad day yesterday.

Come on Dodgers, don't blow it twice!

20 units T4 is this your biggest? TA 30 units on dodgers. Dunno what I was thinking not putting at least a unit on this game. Good work so far guys.

t4_ever · 07-09-09, 07:03 PM

LAD is a good bet also...

you should bet 20 units NY -4 and 30 units LAD

t4_ever · 07-09-09, 08:35 PM

Don't go dropping off the face of the earth now t4_ever. We all have made large wagers that did not cash at one point or another. You need not look any further than to my yesterday losses with LAD (22.50 units). Came back today and didn't get mad about it, got even and then added some more to ensure a nice profit from the series (7.50 units, works for me). You're good at it and don't feel the need/urge to go larger than normal. Looking forward to what you have for Friday and wife said I can post at least one, but not until the games are within 15 minutes of tip off. Who am I to argue with her?

Hey theber2,

Largest posted in one of my threads, if memory is correct. You should have seen it/that play coming following Wednesday's loss and somewhat puzzled why you didn't hit it for

but no issues with it as I've been known to go a few days down the wrong side of the ledger before turning things back around. BOL with your Friday wagers.

shoebox · 07-09-09, 10:01 PM

congrats on the big hitter....

TodaysAction · 07-09-09, 10:01 PM

3-0 and up 32.00 units for the night with a pair pending.

Thanks shoebox. Saw you had three but don't recall what they were for tonight. Hope your three did well for you too.

Well I did place a wager on Mets on that Wednesday so we'll let it slide. I think there is a reason I may have skipped over it. A team can be horrible for only so long. Guess it might still be a while..

Anyways we are 2-0 so far with the Marlins game pending (looking aaallllright) on

picks. Those two were just about as close to a

pick as I can find. Let's see if the Marlins can finish this. Even still, 2-1

ain't bad.

therber2 · 07-09-09, 11:41 PM

aaaand the Marlins pull 4 runs out of no where.

make that 10 and running.

t4. How are you playing WNBA man? Just curious. I'm only see these enormous ballsy bets. Whats going on up there?

TodaysAction · 07-10-09, 12:29 AM

Thursday night's ledger closes with a 4-1-0 record and up 32.00 units for the day.

TodaysAction · 07-10-09, 12:34 AM

Last twenty-one posteds have gone eleven, ten and zero winning at a fifty-two point four rate and have earned twenty-six point fifty-five units.

My picks (using European odds this time, easier in my opinion):

LAD: 1,64 - 5 units
FLA: 1,93 - 2 units

Tailing hufster, Foghorn and Jerseyshop:

ATL: 2,08 - 0,5 units
NYM/LAD Under 8.5: 1,98 - 0.5 units
COL/ATL Under 9: 2,08 - 0.5 units

Late addition tailing TA:
SD: 0,5 units

All: 2-4-0, +3.06 units

Bets YTD: 13-10-0: +7.89 units (tailed bets not included but "best bets" are)
"Best bets" YTD: 6-1-0: +10.79 units (2 units or up)
Tailed bets YTD: 4-7-0: -0.78 units

FYI, I was on FLA and LAD before TA, so those are my own bets and they're not tailed. I would've had I not already had them, so not trying to cherry pick haha.

Big cheers to the D-backs for imploding!

therber2 · 07-10-09, 12:37 AM

I believe that to be the case until AFTER the break. Can't wait to go see that ten run inning they had, set the the machine, stepped out to enjoy the nice cool breeze going through the area. They did. If one flat-bets and goes 2-1, they will end up with a whole a lot units real quick. Do what you gotta do man!

woodman663,

Ain't no issues if you/others cherry pick, I post that message every now and then as general information. Sorry about SD not winning but to me at +250 it was worth the risk - that was a situation that the human element over-rode the system. Bet you'd take +3.06 units every day/night even if you'd go 2-4-0? Nice job as it's one of many reasons why I won't flat-bet.

Real nice seeing you have such a very good night. Goes to show, every once in a while the ball bounces correctly and the players do as they were `capped to do - either that you you guessed real well. Enjoy a nice cold one, you've earned it.

Haha don't feel sorry about those Padres. Lincecum is human (or is he?) so he has to collapse one day. Besides the Giants were woeful against Volstad, but unfortunately they picked it up again. I never expected it to cash but it was great value like you said. I don't expect every bet you make to cash.

What do you use to record games?

Dunno if I'd call what I do flat betting but it is pretty damn close to it. Chasing or going extra large on ANY play is just not in my blood; I'm super glad it is working out for you, and I like tailing your 30 units picks

. Really pissed I didn't see you on the Dodgers today. Like I said, TA on a game with 30 units deserves at least a unit in ANYONE's bank. There is one thing in the market though I am just waiting on that I'm going extra large in. This would be an exception in my routine. If anyone wants to know; send a PM or email.

I'm a cautious man. The other day, upon hearing talk of the CFTC capping commodity futures purchasing on top of record short positions held (delayed news

); I ditched a lot of stocks. I don't care if they go up or down; I'm done with them. I am sick, and tired of the wars against this and that in the market, and incompetent over regulation. All I am going to do now is ride the roller coaster stocks that don't rub anyones fur the wrong way. I have one excellent pick in mind that I have been milking. I think it will be a great buy if it does what I am expecting. Tempting to pull the trigger on it now actually, but I'm willing to wait a bit on it.

therber2 · 07-10-09, 01:09 AM

"373-349-9, 51.7 win rate, +$12,215.26, +122.15 units"

Great Job Buddy, you too Therbs, way to bounce back last night. Looks like another good slate of games tonight. Let's keep this train moving forward.

Yes he has earned it . I need my luck to change. I need some good parlays so I can win a few bucks to start my stake with one of the books.
I am flat broke and cant seem to win. I need to win enough to get a stake started but man what a bad run.
Thanks guys, Good Luck and looking for a few picks today.

My advice: don't do parlays.

Beastxxx · 07-10-09, 09:06 AM

I like the
rays
mets
kansas
LAD
Twins
Atlanta to all win at least by 1.
I hate the over/unders as I always seem to loose the cold teams get hot when I bet under maybe I am friggin jinxed.

I need all the input I can get as it helps me to see what I am missing.

Thanks Guys and lets break the books today.
