Fourth Under of the evening with the A's 5-0 win over the ChiSox coming in (9½). This one was split 14-20 O/U among the 34 contest entrants, no Best Bets either side.

Willie Bee · 06-02-09, 10:09 PM

Well that should make it interesting: The most lopsided game in this contest is a...PUSH. Cardinals beat the Reds 5-2, making the Total of 7 shown at 5Dimes early this morning spot on. Picks were split 28-6 O/U on this one, and 11-1 O/U on Best Bets.

Willie Bee · 06-02-09, 10:20 PM

Unders take lead: Cle-3 Min-4 sends tonight to 4-5-1 O/U. Contest split 20-14 O/U, one Best Bet on the Over.

Willie Bee · 06-02-09, 10:28 PM

4-5-1 o/u/p

This shows how bad playing the board is with real life bets...a ton of entrants and like 10 guys showing a profit...

AMBlai01 · 06-02-09, 10:42 PM

my best bet was a push...that was a killer to me....

ryanspeer2001 · 06-02-09, 10:43 PM

Hey Willie are you going off of the same number for everyone since I noticed that a few people (myself included) have different totals and +/-'s?

For whatever reason I had OVER 9 for the CIN/STL game but it was really 7... I don't know lol.

It's a contest for free SBR stuff that most guys probably took 5 minutes to cap; I know I did.

Why not post some of your plays for once?

onthewhat · 06-02-09, 11:35 PM

I haven't made a wager in over 3 months, Bateman.

englishmike · 06-02-09, 11:52 PM

They're all in the books Willie.

Everyone using the same numbers as they were on Tuesday a little before 10 Eastern. Will doublecheck my math in a bit when I get into the office.

Not really. It just shows the likelihood of making a profit when you bet the entire board.

EDIT:

I misunderstood the original post. I thought you were saying it shows how bad the people on this board are b/c only 10 are showing a profit. Apparently we're in agreement though. Sorry. It's early.

Thank you sir. I appreciate keeping all the numbers uniform for everyone.

nice work Konck

15 profitable posters and 19 losers theoretically.... but I count Onner twice so 20 losers

Shortstop · 06-03-09, 06:58 AM

Congrats Konck! Enjoy your t-shirt.

However, you must remember that there is a 5X rollover before you can wear it.

topgame85 · 06-03-09, 07:03 AM

Thanks for the contest SBR GJ Knock very impressive

Willie Bee · 06-03-09, 07:26 AM

Hold it, there's an inquiry on the track.

Yes, the stewards have ruled that konck came out of Turn 4 too wide and got into the way of Cabo.

Actually, I graded konck's best bet (Mets Over 7½) as a winner instead of a loser. Adjusted standings below showing the Top 10. While I humbly beg forgiveness for the error, we send congrats to...

CABO

Joe Sharp · 06-03-09, 09:57 AM

Just noticed that I was the very first loser.... Does that count for anything?? haha

Maybe next tuesday!

Willie Bee · 06-03-09, 10:17 AM

Thanks for the thanks despite my screwing up the standings. Y'all check back next week and we'll do it again. Maybe I can come up with some reward for anyone that plays in all five Tuesday Totals this month.

MexicanStallion · 06-03-09, 10:38 AM

Thanks Willie Bee. Congrats Cabo
