Where I go for my odds, I see a three-way tie at -210: St. Louis, Atlanta and the Mets. I generally break my ties by going with the team that the public has made the highest fav.

Thank god boston won last night to end the chase. GL guys I am done for the year myself.Comment -
Cubs are about to sweep Cardinals and are still biggest dog of the day?!? Go figure....Comment -
cardinals opened at -210, they are our play for wednesdayComment -
This is idiotic. Cardinals have now lost eight straight series to losing teams. I think it was just last week that I was saying to myself, "Well, Wainwright and Carpenter aren't going to lose on back-to-back nights." And here I am again, saying the same thing.
I'm riding out the system for one more win and then I'm packing it in on the '10 season. The last month has just been unbelievably rocky.Comment -
Philly covered last night. Maybe it's time to stop the system for 2010.Comment -
personally i didn't have the chance to wait for a line on philly........i'm going at again today...........'c' bet on metsComment -
I'm going to track this system during the hockey system, pick the fav and play the puck line. I think it I would get similar resultsComment -
i don't think it will work because hockey is a lower scoring game than baseball, lots of one goal games.........since nhl have accomplished to reach perfect parity with its salary cap nhl is great for betting the underdog.
however betting +goals on puckline with this system might turn out to be real expensiveComment -
I remember testing similar for NFL - biggest favorite to cover the spread. Longest streak was 7 or 8 games both ways. I had data since 1970Comment -
Biggest fave to cover spread in NFL sounds like a good plan if it only went to 7 or 8 games. The odds would probably be like -120 at the most right? With most being at -110. The chase would only be a little worse than this going a couple more games at the worst, but if you have the bankroll, I'd go for it.Comment -
i won't call it a season just yet, will see at least another series through..............................tod ay's play is philly 'a' level bet.....are the rest of you packin it in or continuing?Comment -
I'm going to reduce my per-series stake starting today and then call it a season on Sunday or the next win that follows.Comment -
Tampa Bay (-200 ML) is the play on Saturday.Comment -
tie race today sunday......philly and minnesota both opened at -190 at pinnacle, -200 at other books.
i'm going with philly as they opened with a higher total.Comment -
Doesn't matter which you went with, both were losers. C'mon, one more W and then I'm done for 2010.Comment -
minnesota is the play for monday.Comment -
Yep, that's a winner and that's it for me in 2010. I'll play until the end of the season but at a highly reduced per-series stake . . . just for kicks, so to speak.
I hope everyone managed to ride out the rough waters of the past month. Good luck to those playing the final two weeks of the season. To everyone else, thanks for the company; see you in 2011.Comment -
Great day for all.....good luckComment -
i will go at it for another few days...haven't made up my mind yet when i will call it a season.
the play today is philly and halladayComment -
philly delivered.........as the division winners are being identified now one after another i'm calling it a season.........we have seen weird streaks at the end of previous season in situations like this..............i'm done for the year.
this system is fantastic if you use with caution..............enjoyed everyones company and contribution...........looking forward to next year alreadyComment -
For those still playing, Wednesday's pick is Detroit. Interesting . . . a game in which neither team has anything to play for.Comment -
For players still involved through the end of the season, it looks like Thursday gives you quite a crap shoot. My site lists four games at virtually the same opening number: Milwaukee -136, Seattle -135, Cleveland -134, Yankees -133. Good luck making a decision on this one!Comment -
not playing but recording results still for research purposes...........fishy lines yesterday......one source had milwaukee the other had cleveland tied with yanks.
in a situation like this when a line can't be confirmed by a second source there is really no right or wrong.
however going with covers which has been established as our source for lines, milwaukee was the play that was record and they won. ironically the other two teams would have been losing plays.
tampa opened as the biggest favorite today, there shouldn't be any controversy about that.Comment -
So how did it end up for the season? Wish I could have played...Comment -
philly is recorded for sundayComment -
Don't yet see a line for the Philly game on Monday; Phils don't have anything sewn up yet, and with Halladay the scheduled starter, this game could be the one. Right now it's Tampa Bay (-195) at home vs. Baltimore.Comment -
philly again today........halladay on the moundComment -
easy cover on the phillies 8:0
and they clinched division titleComment -
Yeah . . . sorry about that. I think the Phillies last night completed the 90th series since opening day (actually, the day after since there was only one game on the day the season officially started).
For those still participating, Tuesday's play is Tampa Bay and Price at home vs. Baltimore.
Home field throughout the AL playoffs is still up for grabs, so Minnesota, the Yankees and Tampa Bay still have something to play for — not that it mattered last night.Comment -
clean easy tampa win.........i quit playing the system too early
well......in this line of work these is no would have/should have.
lots of lines missing early today...atlanta looks like the team to record, but we'll hold out till everything is in.Comment
