Lean on rockies and dbacks not betting though, Just trying to get into a rhythm right now going to start putting in more hours every night studying etc.. im drinking dont wanna force anything.

that DET game was a bitch. got home from work and the tex game was already over, not surprised it was a winner, but couldn't believe the DET game was in the 13th. then they score in the top of the 13th only to lose in the bottom. messed up my whole strategy for the night.

ARI will get it. but goin aginst your lean of rockies. smart to not bet while drinking. i still make that flaw from time to time. but more for entertainment purposes in making the game interesting rather than trying to pull a profit.

thanks man. i'll need it in MLB, but i got a few units i can afford to burn there if things turn out that way. as long as Spurs win in a close game, i'll be a happy man.

O's/Tribe under 8.5 +105
Atl/Mil under 7 -110
Tribe +123

Duuude - my POD is the Orioles again. Masterson is pitching a day early. O's bats are really starting to look alive and Chen is going to have a solid game. Orioles are a 3 unit play for me today. But again, I had them as a 2 unit play yesterday and got burnt. BOL.

I don't know why it's down kp, but this happened a while back and it was down for a day or more.
Good to see you back.
Hope you're still whipping that NBA bitch.

Thx Martin

O's -144
Brewers -101 Large

Going a little bigger on these two.

Brewers are 2-5 this last week on the road. Marlins have been really hot this year at home and come in with 2 straight wins. Why are the marlins so cheap today?? seems like they should be a heavier favorite makes me think Brewers are the play here.

Also Koehler shutdown the giants last start, Estrada loses to the cubs. Koehler 3-1 last 4, Estrad 1-3 last 4 , are they not begging for Marlin action?

ithinkiamgood · 05-23-14, 12:31 PM

Koehler looks unbeatable at home right now undefeated, Estrada has struggled lifetime against the fish. Im taking the ballsy play here line is too low imo

bookies don't work like this....they seek even action.....they don't beg for action on any one side.....the numbers reflect the markets and how many people are consistently betting on certain teams.....just because they are "off" from what you expected doesn't mean shit. this is a basic sports gambling concept that many people on this forum do no understand

ithinkiamgood · 05-23-14, 01:05 PM

Smut not saying your wrong, personally this has worked for me for years.. Appreciate the feedback

Jarman · 05-23-14, 01:10 PM

It has worked for me as well. The Montreal upset in NHL last night is a perfect example. When the line initially came out and I saw the Rangers were only -175, it just looked fishy.

isukatchess1 · 05-23-14, 01:23 PM

Worked for me yesterday with the rays vs sonny...shoulda been more like A's -130 IMO.

ithinkiamgood · 05-23-14, 02:53 PM

Nice call Chess wish I jumped on that

O's -144
Brewers -101 Large
Reds -113

Smutbucket · 05-23-14, 03:32 PM

yes your stories are all real cute but anecdotal evidence is not data

so books NEVER take any positions or leans on a game to drive action on the other side? bullshit.

I was thinking the same thing! Also same reason why I like CINCY and WASH.

isukatchess1 · 05-23-14, 04:08 PM

People like to convince themselves baseball is last pure sport remaining....makes them feel better.

ithinkiamgood · 05-23-14, 04:18 PM

yes their position is how do we get even money is what Im saying

they'll often steam or drop lines in order to drive even action,

but hey whatever works for some people, good for you guys, I just don't use it in my handicapping and disagree with the ideas of traps and/or reverse traps.

Nice thread keep it going.

isukatchess1 · 05-23-14, 05:52 PM

Adding red sox...too much hate on this site towards them.

Jarman · 05-23-14, 07:59 PM
