Correct. I place flat wagers without adding on any extra to cover vigorish, no matter if the line is +120 or -120. I won't be trying to WIN $300.00, I will be RISKING $300.00. So many guys are putting a new spin on things, and I see in the future that guys will not playing the system with purity.

man cant wait till this starts thanks for the great info CKComment -
Secondly I want to know how all of these opinions on how the system will work (for a season that last from April through late November/early December) are being formulated after what a half a week of baseball? I give the board something spectacular and it is being picked over so much to the point that doubters have surfaced only after two or three days of the season are gone by. While the doubters and researchers are coming up with better ways to use the wheel than the creator, I will be playing them blindly every morning after I pour my coffee as I always have before any of you came into knowledge of this system. I will kick things off May 1st.Comment -
CK,I'm not here to bash or give you a hard time but with the way these lines are coming out(granted its only 3 days)are you serious that you will blindly play all of these at -120,-125,-135 and -140 or will you only play the plus lines.I don't have Betus but Greek,5Dimes and Bookmaker have put out many - lines for the first 3 daysComment -
Recalculating the break-even point for just the first inning, and assuming a 53% success rate, you break even at an average line of -112 (1.89). Today's average at the Greek is -110/1.91 (-106/1.94 at my book). So technically, you're still at the breakeven threshold today, however, because there are so many games (15), the sensitivity of the system is more apparent today.
If you assume the 53%/75%/86% distribution of wins in the 1st/2nd/3rd innings, that translates to approximately 8/11/13 wins, leaving you with two losses for the day. Two losses after the 3rd inning mean a net loss of 6 units each, and while the figures above represent a breakeven over the long term, that doesn't mean you're not going to have losing days. The expected 8/11/13 distribution would leave you with at least a 2 unit loss for the day. A third loss would push you to around an 8 unit loss for the day, which, represents 20% of your bankroll, and leaving your net at around -3u for the season to date.
That's why I was asking about how much these lines fluctuate from day to day, as I have no background data to compare it to. Is it normal to have big negative days like this one on days where there are lots of games and lots of attention on those games?Comment -
Key here is, IMO, circunstances. CK circunstances may change the whole of a thing or a result. This system sucess is clearly proven so far, past years stats don't lie. But circunstances this year are different, given that this year, the system is a little more public. Like in the stock market, a rumor, or any movement can unleash a chain reaction, with lots of consecuences.
Well, getting back to the point, what I'm thinking, is about what money volume this kind of wager (1st inning O/U) may achieve for books on both sides? bc if now we all start juicing $200 a play each, all at the same play (over .5), this would be surely a fact of matter for the books to fix the lines, to adjust the market. If our wagers volume in this specific prop bet are far higher than the rest of public on the other side, i see obvious at books reacting pretty quickly.
I repeat, not against the system, just analyzing all possible angles, given the fact that maybe this season, circunstances may change things. Hope not.Comment -
Thanks for posting your system CK.
Regardless of what people are picking apart, you've proven it to work for you, and have been decent enough to share it with the rest of us.
I'll be playing it as you've designed (with the exception of starting early - today was day 1 for me).
BoL to all, and thanks again CK.
Cheers,

So do you guys think that because we are wagering on it that the runs will suddenly stop being scored in the 1st inning? Synergy just is what it is. Three days and all of this. Just play the damn things. No one in your lives has given you 150 wins for free per year in any sport in this thing of ours. Frankly it is just funny. Every one has all of this +- EV talk and statistical reasoning why they should be played only in certain pitching matchups, etc.
Look it is what it is. Play the damn things and count your money. Then let's have this talk after the season when your pockets are full and you didn't have to do any homework to get it. Then I can buy what everyone is selling right now. Sounds like fear to me.
I understand. It's hard to think that someone could come up with a home-made system like this that has that kind of statistical success annually in a sport that is considered the hardest to handicap.
The People's Champ is always looking out for the common man. I didn't give an insider secret away for the books. I gave it to the people who are struggling in this recession and need some steady income. It's what I do. Whether you like me or not, I know how to generate money without having to pick up a shovel or a suit, and I am also open to sharing it with my brothers.

CK, I don't doubt at all the success you've had with this. I'm just afraid that with the increased attention this bet will be getting at the books, they will start to adjust the lines to get this prop back in the houses favor on a macro-scale.Comment -
The decision is solely up to each individual. If you guys are really doubting this system, don't play it.Comment -
Guys,
Beware the live betting:
As cheme82 pointed out: If you were to chase every single game $200, $400, $800 you would lose 101 units. And you need to chase 200 400 800 if you want to make a 1 unit profit on third inning wins ($800 spent - [$200+$400] = $200).
2008
Total games: 2,043
First 3 innings when run/s scored: 1,775
First 3 innings with no run/s scored: 268
Differential: -101 [1,775-(7*268)]
In order for chasing to be profitable you need to hit better than 7 wins to 1 loss ratio (1 loss = 7 units [200+400+800] if your unit is $200).
Chasing only nationally televised games assumes that they achieve better than a 7 to 1 ratio (the season average is 6.6).
I went back over FOX's 2008 schedule. Live chasing of Saturday night FOX games worked out to a profit of +2 or +9 (some discrepancies with what was televised). It is possible if you don't play every game to only hit winners, but that's a risk, because you might hit a few losers. Seems like a lot of work for small gains.

CK is right, for evrything in life there has always been fear. With the way the world is today we have to be more positive as a group and believe this system will work. Money is becoming super tight and nobody wants to give it up just to lose it. Again please do not risk what you can not afford. WE have to stop thinking what if this is wrong and start thinking what if this is RIGHT. All the info researchers are doing a terrific job giving us the heads up on this system. Good info or not , it is just info until we play the game in real time over the season to see it unfold. I just wanted thank CK again for trying to help the people out. Even if the system fails ( prob NOT ), no one can see into the future but CK was kind enough to help guide the way. Lets do this ****ing thing.

Seriously guys... why don't you just listen to what the master CK has to say about it.
While we're on the subject, I have another system that's based on what CK has been telling us. Every day, find the biggest favorite, and bet it. In July, you should double your bet because as the weather warms up, the dogs can't handle the hot weather and favorites clean up. I ran this system last year, and my record was 97-65. Run it with your wife/SO and you are guaranteed 64 more wins than losses (32 each).Comment -
CK do you think you could have a look at my post earlier #256 on page 8 and give me your opinion?
ThanksComment -

wow havent been on that much and man people here need to just stfu if it works great use it to your advantage everyone keeps forgetting we are here to make money from bookies so if you dont anything good to say then STFU --- all i care about is making money and if you cant afford to lose 4k for any sports then why the f are you betting??? i mean really get the f out of here go somewhere else to make money b/c this is where the big boys play and come on it's only 4k
anyway this is my first year in MLB so going to give CK a shot and JM and let's see what happens
I was on a few of CK's SP plays and really it took alot out of thinking and made the bets easy so take care and that's my 2 cents for now
and for all those other that can't risk 2k or 4k go somewhere else to make money --- this is the adult forum --- kiddies should be at chucky cheeseComment -
Kill the hype. Delete the threadComment -
Uh I would make a lot query into several books until i find one that offers this prop wager. Thre are a ton of them that do. I would adjust your plays to 1/40th of your overall bankroll to start off.
FYI, I played all of them today just for shits and giggles. There were too many games today for me not to do it!Comment -
I did too but very very very minimal however it seems NL is at better win rate then AL
I think current record for last 3 days is 13 W - 12 L
NL 9 - 5
AL 4 - 7
today NL is 3 - 0Comment -
So you are ignoring the fact that the lines are not in the favor of the system, and you are starting before 1 week into May?
CK, we don't want to bash this system at all, but simple calculations show that if the average lines are as they are now, you are going to end up with a negative bank account. Why are you starting now?Comment -

I'm with DuffMan, although I am not too fond that you have the nerve to come to my thread of all places after you ran to the mods and got the People's Champ thrown out at our former home. Duffield PM me. You and I have something to talk about.
Delete this thread, please!Comment -
CK, sorry for the double post. I'm just wondering: what is the logical reasoning for starting in May?
Also take a look at me and Cheme's spreads in the sticky. Do you notice the drop midseason? I would assume is the pitchers getting aclimated to the batters' styles. Same goes for starting one month in, vis versa; yay? nay?Comment -
