    Nice win today! Good Work Cards!

    ya I like the idea of starting out higher and going lower on bets, that kinda what I am doing now, since I have a max of $750 on my book.

      i'm not using the same system as everybody else, so my units change from bet to bet.
      i am still chasing, but chasing a win, not a specific amount.

      i have a base amount ($2 or $3 or $5 to start) and bet that. lets say $2.
      if i win (whatever the profit), i take it and bet the same amount on the next game.
      if i lose game A, i bet the B game so my profit is A bet + 25%. if i win, i start over with $2.
      if i lose, i bet the C game to win my B bet +25%.

      so for me, units are wins, not any specific profit amount.
      the way i do it (very small stakes) allows me to manage my bankroll in a way i feel comfortable.
      no matter what the odds are for game A, my loss will be the same. the profits will never be big, but they will be more frequent and consistent.

      obviously im going to win a fraction of what everybody else will at the end (especially cause for A bets im using RL -1).

      to be honest, i want to see if doing this, in a very conservative way, i can still beat my stock broker.
      if i can make 50% (tax free) in 6 months of baseball, the nasdaq can suck it.

      So game #1 would be a profit of $2

      Game #2 would be an overall profit of .50?

      Game #3 would be an overall loss of $1.38?

      So once it hits game 3 and so on you would take a hit? Did I get it right?

        I can't seem to get a pattern to match up as of now. I'm still plugging in different figures for a given game. If and when I do I'll post the percent to bet so everyone can know what to bet based on their unit. Assuming they decide to do it.

            I have $750 in there now. But I'm cashing out 300 soon. So I'll be forced to drop my unit bet. I am currently chasing $10.

              sorta. the $2 is not the profit, its the risk.
              the risk is always the same for the A bet.


              if Game A wins, sometime i'll make $1.05 profit, sometimes ill make $0.80. depends on the odds for that game (which will always be worse cause im using -1).
              for game B, ive lost $2 and therefore make the bet whatever will give me A +25% ($2.50).
              so if its +100 i'd need to bet $2.50 to get back my A bet plus 25%.
              if i lose that, i bet to win $2 (a bet) plus $2.50 (b bet) plus 25% for a total of $5.63. that means i need to win $5.63 profit.

              the difference is that after bet A i go to RL -1.5 (for the rest of that chase), so the odds are normally + and it wont take me as much to win back the A bet amount.

              after reading this, im pretty sure ive confused myself. so i have no idea if this makes sense now.

                I think I got it. That's a lot of math if your bet history wasn't viewable. I forgot you mentioned you do the 1 run strategy for game #1's.

                    For those people who have a massive bankroll and thinking about making several bucks, why don't you bet on -10,000 live money line. for 400 bucks, you make 4 bucks because it is 99% sure win. it is considered cheap compared to 6 game or more ML chase. at 6th game, you will be easily end up in thousands by chasing to win several bucks

                    i was looking at live betting of the cleveland at matchbook.. clev ats is -12.5. clev was up 31 points at 4th quarter with 8 min left... so that is pretty much a sure win right there. i rather bet that than chasing 6 games.

                    instead of risking 444(at even money) to win 4 bucks for a 6 game chase... alot of times, you will be spending alot more at higher juice.

                      It's for some and not for others. That's all. I'm not saying it's flawless. After all it's a chase system. The goal is to get enough to when/if a streak happens this year we won't lose any money out of our pockets.

                                  i'm getting +110 (+114 at pinnacle).
                                  covers had LAD at -201 earlier, now its at -191. i'm going to wait and see if it gets better after lunch.

                                  either way, tonights game looks pretty solid.

                                                    NYM are the play today, opening kinda low. I have -180 @ vegas insider and -164 at covers. Either way they are the big favorite.

                                                        looking good for another series win here


                                                        ----------------

                                                        Ive started making a log of what would happen if you did the same bet but on the opposition (biggest dog) doing a chase system, the thing is when we lose a bet on this system most of the time it because the teams loses not cos they win by only win by one,but i only started this 3 days ago would be good to go over the whole season and see if it is profitble.

                                                        the last one would have been a 3 game chase with Philly, Pits and SF betting £100 a time so the out going was £700 but the return on the last game was £1140 - £700 staked giving us £440 profit in one chase, does this seem stupid or has anyone already tested this chase system?

                                                          hi marvel,

                                                          are you tracking if the dog won or dog +1.5?

                                                            The short answer is NO! At least in the test period of 2008.

                                                            It wouldn't make any difference at which point you jumped into the sequence.......starting later would simply reduce your overall winnings. As long as the basic premise holds true the MORE wagers you make the more you'll eventually win.

                                                            Winning sequeces include:
                                                            1 10-gm winning streak
                                                            1 9-gm
                                                            1 7-gm
                                                            1 6-gm
                                                            1 5-gm
                                                            4 3-gm
                                                            Therefore, if you were to take the biggest dog, you would've had a 10 game chase. One 9 game chase and so on. So it wouldn't work.
