Good card today..GL

Had I not processed a w/d earlier, damned roofing project went way over budget, I'd have hit TOR as well. I know it's not easy to ignore Casper but they're not worth it. Anyone who has been around the forum more than six months should have an good understanding of the situation.

OMG, you talked me into it. One Unit to win 1.32.......

"I ain't no chicken, I'm a Rhode Island Red, boy.............."

OK Bama,,,,,,,,you and me on this one..

We never saw it coming....We almost had it, who would have seen an 6 run 8th by Washington. I still think the ML parlay was a good idea. I ended up with a plus night, that's the main thing.

No worries man; keep on doin what you are doing cause I know you are doing it right. We've all had the shiit days. MS, how many total units are you up/down for the season, and then for the month? Just curious.

Thanks. Appreciate the support. It could have been a better day had Florida not blown it in the 8th and the Angels not give the game away. Another run in the game I have the over and its a decent day.

Record: 223-216-11 (+31.86)

Runline: 77-88-3 (+30.74)
Totals: 30-28-4 (-6.52)
5 Innings: 19-8-2 (+21.00)

That is my season as a whole. I was down almost 30 units for May. I stopped baseball until after the all star break. I am up around 60 units since. I just have big days and some bad losses. I probably won 45 units on July 30th and August 1st combined. I am up a little bit in August.

Who is going to play the Marlins today? Awful performance the other day.

Keep the cash

No problem MS; I am enjoying your recent performance. The way you explain your season makes it sound streaky, but if I'm not mistaken you've changed your style? I'm not exactly sure what you've done, but my 2 cents would be to hang on to that cash that you are up, and ease up. A while back I was posting cards with 20 plays. Bad days were horrible set backs. TA, suggested that I lighten it up, and it was probably the best move I made. I don't know if I'd be up more than I am now, but at least I'm up more than I was at the time, and that's never a bad thing.

Like I said my two cents. I don't know what is going on upstairs with you well enough to say anymore than that. Do you have a specific strategy right now? I'd love to hear if you wouldn't mind.

Thanks. I would easily describe my season as streaky. I haven't really changed much of anything. The main thing I would guess is I play RL with all my ML plays. For the most part that has been successful. Since I had a few good days I played my totals a little bit higher yesterday. The rest were pretty normal wagers.

My one problem is not betting on big dogs. I bet on smaller ones every once in a while, but don't lay anything on the dogs. No idea why? I played the Rays Friday and Sunday against the Royals. They were pretty easy wins. I layed off Saturday though because I just didn't like the game and thought the Royals had a shot. They won, but I had nothing on the game. Same with last night. I liked Baltimore, but didn't risk anything. That is one reason why I play quite a few games, because I try to go with my initial leans, but then again it is also a reason I lay off. Some days I am way off.

It was a painful evening. I lost 80% of my week gain in 1 night thanks to FL and LAA. If it wasn't for TB, LAD ML and RL wins, I would be in a hole. It seems like every time I have the confident to go big, this happened.

Glad you came out on top at least. Sorry you had a lousy day as well. Good luck today though. It's a clean slate.

I didn't really change much other than I went a little bigger with the totals. Obviously it did not work out very well.

NyM starting pitcher out after only 2 outs in the 1st and NyM up 2-0. I like my odds on Stl and the over.

[MexicanStallion]

I think it is over. Just the way my life usually works. I can't pick anything right. 5-0 now. Your over looks to be in good shape though

[Foghorn]

Stuff happens, I just had to laugh because I have been on the good side of this kind of stuff lately........we'll get it back eventually.

Good Luck on your plays today, don't know if I will get any in on time.

GL today TA and co....

Im in a serious drought....

[woodman663]

PIT, 1.85, 2 units ("best bet")

Pittsburgh was shut out yesterday (historically teams at home that have just been shut out fare pretty well) and has now been defeated by crappy teams at home 3 times in a row. Ohlendorf has a better WHIP than Davis and is great at home. The Pirates' offense is bound to come alive again, at least I hope so. Whatever the result, I'm definitely dropping the Pirates bets after this one.

CLE, 2,01, 0.5 unit

Because Liriano skipped a start with an injury. He might very well turn in a crappy outing, with the Indians playing better baseball lately.

SEA/KC Under 9, 2.04, 0.5 unit

Because it just looks too good a line for a matchup between two horrible offenses.

GL to us all.

[BamaBill67]

NyM starting pitcher out after only 2 outs in the 1st and NyM up 2-0. I like my odds on Stl and the over.

I ain't believin this sh.it......still 5-0 in the 6th

Also on board with this one. Hanson should be able to shutout the Padres.

[therber2]

Just got back from work. Had my page up for my plays, and didn't hit submit. I see the Mets won; I apologize guys. I could have sworn that after I was messaging MS I hit the submit on the plays. Anyways, Mets was a chase play from the other day. I usually look for superior teams playing at home, and hit the first few games chase most of the time. Yesterday I wasn't confident enough to do the first game for the Mets. I wanted to see how they would perform first. Dodgers just rake in the dollars yesterday with the same situation.
