CK's Daily MLB Thread Leans for Friday May 1. 2009

[cocknocker]

thanks man.. it took me forever to figure out how to do my avatar..

What do you think about the royals +1.5 -130 today? i just have a hunch..and KC hasn't won 3 in a row since.. jeez i don't know..

I have Minny and the high cheese (-1.5)

[Dexter]

Have a great time on your vacation, CK! Looking forward to your political thread- will come in to visit.
Gettin back into action again after getting a legit job which took my focus off of playing the games.

DERBY VALUE PLAY:
Heard that the early money is coming in on Pioneer of the Nile- his last race out he won. The place horse was Chocolate Candy who went off the board in that race at 5/2. Now Chocolate Candy is on the board at 20 to 1. That is a good value for a horse that can hang with one of the supposed favorites of this race.
Other good value picks to possibly throw in with either Pioneer of the Nile or another low odds horse are:
Mr. Hot Stuff 30 to 1
Papa Clem 20 to 1

This being said- this is a crap shoot with 20 horses in the feild and maybe sloppy conditions with rain in the forecast. Playin this race is like playing the lottery-"for entertainment purposes only"- do small amount exactas and trifectas with value picks and hope for the unexpected.
GL to all the CK Mafia.

oh baby - its derby day. i'll be in the horse forum tomorrow when i get my racing forum.

havent analyzed the derby at all yet.

As far as the chasing is concerned for live games, I will be around enough to do it on someone's thread. There are enough of my people around to keep a decent thread going.

.

there will be one thread as always started each night by one of us. again, lets just call it:

~MLB Leans 5/1/09~

any one of us, feel free to start it the night before as west coast games come to an end...

*your departure doesnt mean we get thrown to the wolves in all these other sbr threads

[cocknocker]

hey Jimbo, i think he meant if the line is OVER -120, he will play it flat. This is, ie. the line -121 he will play flat, 100 to win 100/1.21. I understand so, if the line is not over -120 (-120 or <-120), ie. -118, he will play 118 to win 100. I think thats the difference when he points out the OVER/UNDER -120 nuance.

Please correct me if im wrong.

You are correct, Cassidy. I refuse to pay ANYTHING over -120 vigorish for my system plays. Now that the linemakers have made an adjustment, so did I.

[cocknocker]

You already know I like Mr. Hot Stuff at the 30-1 Mr. Mannix. BTW my vacation has been cancelled due to the Swine Flu epidemic in Mexico. We haven't figured out where we are going now. I don't like te idea of going to Hawaii when there is so much unrest in the Pacific Ocean right now. Thinking of just jumping in the ride and blasting off for Vegas for the weekend. My buddy has a time share up there....

Trivia question of the day...What MLB field is known as the Launching Pad?

Used to be Fulton County Stadium. Is there one currently with that moniker?

[Ringo]

Coors field

[cocknocker]

Bingo, Ringo. Hey that rhymes! Damn i didn't expect for that one to get answered so quickly.

And for your correct answer you win an all expenses paid trip to Can Cun, Mexico! Just kiddin' about that.

[rb4033]

[DeeWizzle]

Well at least now I know I actually learned something when I went to college out in boulder co.

[jalein]

Hey CK.....

this is my first day back on board in something like 3 months. I am glad you arent going to Mexico mayun. The swine flu is legit and with the Mrs. expecting its waaaaay too damn risky. In fact, I would respectfully recommend you avoid crowded spots. This thing is for real and its dangerous.

I am glad you are still here and doing damage. You deserve some time off so I hope you enjoy it. I am mostly sticking to JM plays myself until I get my sea legs after such a long layoff. If I have anything strong, I will be happy to share it with you. Please give the mrs. my best. Take it easy.

I don't know what's up with that. But they usually offer more live wagering MLB games after basketball is over

[cocknocker]

Thanks, jaelin, good to hear from you! I am crushed. I was all set up for sun and fun. this is the first time that I can remember that I had to cancel a trip due to these types of reasons. Unbelieveable

[Dexter]

[Dexter]

[cocknocker]

Minny goes up and then lets them back in....Ah such is the game of baseball! I have no idea why I love this shit so much!

[cocknocker]

i changed my mind cocknocker...

bulls +6.5 (3x)

Whut? I think that I am gonna fool with the total on this one. I mean these games can't all go into overtime right?

[cocknocker]

And just like that the Twins go back up by 2 runs!

[cocknocker]

My HEAVY Heat play is looking awfully good right now!

[Wilforth]

Why are you afraid? Just go with Bulls ML. Those C's don't want to be embarrassed in the next round. They're looking for a way to quit in this series.
