Todays Action, 2009 M.L.B. Thread

[TodaysAction]

Great stuff therber2!! Another great example of unit management. Hey, maybe we should call you Mr. FridayNight.

$KARMA$,

This is why this thread "works" as we don't cap games the same way and when there's a majority on a team, side or total it's normally a nice return. When everyone contributes to this thread, we all benefit. The regulars in here are not sheep to whatever the first play of the day posted in here is. Sometimes after seeing it, we'll discuss the game and either pass on it or take the other side/team. Positive breeds positive.

[TodaysAction]

Well, the books took another on account of MLB. But the fuzzy yellow bullets absorbed most of the damage.

Waiting on you guys to tell me

That will never happen for a "poor record" - there are a few things that will get you shown the door but we'd rather you stay here, make yourself and home and contribute to the thread.

Thanks TA! Much, much appreciated.

Let me know what you think about this one Terry. Once it is processed. I'm thinking the Yanks have this next game, but I will most likely stay off it for tomorrow.

Why would you lay off the game if you think you have an edge? Two sets have been run and it's one for each team with BOS having scored one more run - still have five more to run through but have a feeling this may be a for me less a potential , or . Time will tell.

[TodaysAction]

Posts shmosts. Psh.

[TodaysAction]

Nice! Haven't heard/seen that one before.

Fits in here real well, sometimes to well. [/quote]

Ehhh. Let's hope that's not the case. [/quote]

Sometimes better to be lucky then good.

[TodaysAction]

Thank you sir. What I know best is to hold the cash you've made, and think your next plays through very carefully, and that is what I'll be doing tomorrow. May have a few for you folks. A few on my mind:

Phillies, White Sox, Arizona, and Rockies.

Detroit might want to tap Oakland again, and I know those Yanks will be wanting to do the same but that is probably a pass.

Good morning Nickelicious,

We like having some color in our thread.

The pair of NFLX games split taking 0.10 units from an account.

That's been my return on NFLX also. I don't even bother to post. Not the real teams playing here and It's just wastes too much time and energy to cap.

Nice picks last night TA!!
I agree with your philosophy, Hammer them books for as much as you can get.
Some advice if you play in Vegas - Check your tickets before you leave the window.
My wife thought she had the Brewers (#903) play in before 1st pitch, but the ticket writer gave her Philly. (#905)
By the time she got back to the writer, the crew was up 2-0!. Fortunately,They let her void the Philly
ticket because of the rain delay and I had taken the Brewers on line cause I didn't know if she would get the play in on time. Luckily, things worked out. But make sure you check your ticket, the ticket writers do make mistakes.

[therber2]

I'm bettin' those Cubs are gonna win that next game, but I'm laying off of it. When my money is on those boys they skrew it up. They really should win this one. Too risky though for my blood. I know how those Cubs play sometimes.

[dvb02]

Good luck Therber...I am with you on both picks.

[TodaysAction]

Yea but I REALLY thought I had an advantage - wait until the regular season ... it gets ...

[therber2]

Boston Red Sox +135 (2 units)
Red Sox +1.5 -135 (3 units)

Alright boys lets hope those Yanks got all those hits out of their system. The is quite the duel here; don't go betting your whole paycheck.

Good afternoon VegasPlayer,

4-5 isn't horrid but we both know you're capable of going 7-2 or better, right?
Thank you, sometimes the line between a win & loss is less than an eye lash's width. That's sound advise everywhere. People may get mad at you for holding up the line but tough , you need to be certain your tickets are punched right. That was nice of them to let her void her ticket - give the place a plug here. One has to love a spouse who's doing the gambling thing too - she sounds like a great match for you.

[therber2]

Good luck Therber...I am with you on both picks.

Cubs too? Okay well my money isn't on it. I hope they make me regret it.

[TodaysAction]

TA,
I don't have an out for s. Do you know the correlation of results with s and s?
Nice work yesterday and thanks again!!

Good afternoon ankh4all2,

Sorry that you don't. Someone PM'd me about this recently, might have been you?, but do not try to take to as they aren't done in the same manner however, if my memory is correct the person told me that it was holding up - this is NOT an endorsement for doing it and it if works GREAT but it's not wise to cross wires. Thank you and today.

Exactly; if one were to flat bet all the regulars they would most likely be in the hole. Anyone following the thread you should go with picks (should know what the means by now). If you doo follow just one person, make SURE you have your own form of money management.

$KARMA$ thanks bro

It was not I, and looks like a wash for the last few couple of days. Thank you!!
