Contrarian Radar

Good Morning gentlemen, to a wonderful Mother's Day. The contrarian radar gets back to working again, after a hiatus in LV. The Buccos have been on the skids lately, with the Mets coming off the 10-1 yesterday slaughter. We look for the Pirates to get at least a +150 price, we love the previous day blowout angle that overtakes the squares, and the New York money pounce, to help out as the game approaches.

Good luck Pair...hope your time in Vegas was enjoyable. Livan at -160 is a bit steep.

Pair of 5s Sir · 05-10-09, 05:23 AM

Thanks Diogee, Vegas was real good. Too many coolers at Hold'em.

Pair of 5s Sir · 05-10-09, 07:20 AM

Contrarian Radar

The Colorado Rockies get a serious look today. Despite the 72% money going on the Marlins, the Rockies are the favorite with the less than statistically superior pitching. Marlins have beaten the Rockies at home for the last two with everyone thinking sweeep.

Give the Rockies a look. Will confirm later.

Rockies

I can roll with you on the Pirates, but not the Rockies. I like the Marlins today with the better pitcher and better lineup, and getting hot again. Already booked it in fact.

Well at least one of us will be happy with the Marlins/Rockies result. According to my sources, the game is the most heavily bet game on the board.

I love the marlins today to i have rolled with them the last two games on the ML and RRL and hit both they are hot there bullpen is pitching great and they have a solid pitcher on the mound BOL with your selections today!!!

I've loaded up on them the past two games and won both. I'll look at this as the house's money.

I like the PIT play. Waiting out the line to see if I can get better than +145.

Vonnegut · 05-10-09, 08:03 AM

Welcome back.

Pair of 5s Sir · 05-10-09, 08:54 AM

Selection

Go to the window and get the Pirates.

Pirates +152

Pair of 5s Sir · 05-10-09, 08:59 AM

Selection II

Add Rockies to the selection grid.

Rockies -110

TheLock · 05-10-09, 11:50 AM

Marlins bats were ICE COLD last night vs a weak starter.

I like the FLA fade.

TheLock · 05-10-09, 11:51 AM

Also, Fredi Gonzales has outdone himself with the ridiculous lineup he is trotting out.

He has his top 2 OBP guys batting 6th and 8th and Gload batting 4th.

Thanks for the confidence and confirmation Mr. Lock. You are a plethora of information. By the way, Beyonce is performing at the Wynn on a limited basis.

Vonnegut · 05-10-09, 12:53 PM

On the Pirates today too. Hoping Snell can pull this one out for them because it doesn't appear they are going to be hitting anytime soon. Livan should fall apart any moment now.

TheLock · 05-10-09, 01:13 PM

2-0 Bucs top 4th

Let's see if Snell can hold it together. Hernandez looks shaky. I like your analysis on the Rockies/Fish

TheLock · 05-10-09, 01:17 PM

I'd see Beyonce @ Wynn if it was comped. No interest in shelling out $200 to see those thunder thighs.

You got a much better # on Rockies. I got -120 bout an hour ago.

Pair of 5s Sir · 05-10-09, 02:50 PM

Selection III

Oakland Athletics -1.5 +186

Pair of 5s Sir · 05-10-09, 06:11 PM

It's Official

Pirates +152 (L)
Rockies -110 (W)
Athletics -1.5 +186 (L)

Things have been rough, dodging the Mother's Day Party. No excuses, I like the late game stay tuned.

jellobiafra · 05-10-09, 06:19 PM

I knew you'd hit the one game I was on the other side of. LOL

What's even funnier (and works out for me) is that I tried to tail you on the A's. But I did what I usually do with RL wagers and backed it up with a ML bet as well....so that it pushes if my team wins by 1. We've had that discussion. Anyway, I just went to the account and somehow I made that wager on BOS tonight and NOT OAK. To top it off, I had already taken TAM earlier on the ML. Oy.

I'm basically in a push situation if TAM wins or BOS wins by 2 or more. If BOS wins by 1, I get back about half of what I would with the other two outcomes.

I'm interested in your take on this one though, as now the action I thought I already had on it has been basically canceled out my my carelessness.

TheLock · 05-10-09, 06:43 PM

I'm leaning over 8.5 +110

Whatcha got Pair?

TheLock · 05-10-09, 06:58 PM

7 minutes to 1st pitch....

Pair of 5s Sir · 05-10-09, 07:00 PM

Selection

We were ready to pass this game. However, the squares have been pounding the Red Sox over the last hour, according to my sources. Let's face it, Garza at nearly +130 is a bargain regardless of this outcome.

Rays +127

Pair of 5s Sir · 05-10-09, 07:06 PM

Selection II

Add Rays-1.5 +202

Garza is a stud, with Beckett at a sloppy place at this time.

Pair of 5s Sir · 05-10-09, 10:46 PM

It's Official

How bad is the Rays loss. Two bone head fielding errors and the ninth inning, what can I say. Close, but fellas, this is not hand grenades. The Contrarios go down in a whimper. Let's recap today's selections:

Pirates +152 (L)
Rockies -110 (W)
Athletics -1.5 +186 (L)
Rays +127 (L)
Rays -1.5 +202 (L)

First bad day this season. Perhaps it's the jet lag or I just suck. Let's getem tomorrow boys.

Stay threaded.

jeffandsherri · 05-10-09, 10:54 PM

Where can I find?

Can anyone tell me how to find the percentage of what the public is betting on for a particular game?

TheLock · 05-10-09, 11:06 PM

Gotta love it. Base hit with 2 on and 1 out and Im a hero.

2 K's later and I lose both wagers.

That's gambling for you.

jellobiafra · 05-10-09, 11:20 PM

5's you don't suck. That's for sure.

TheLock · 05-11-09, 12:08 PM

THATS IT IM NEVER BETTING ON BASEBALL EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!1111111111
