    public service :why as gamblers do we make betting harder than it needs to be..

    Example, if I strictly bet yankees games I would be up about 10 units instead, I bet on these other donkeys and am down money.. don't make this harder than it needs to be, already hard enough knowning which donkey is gonna show up on a nightly basis... good luck and god bless

    Keep taking the Yankees and by seasons end you'll have enough juice for between 5-6 middle school cafeterias. Good luck!

    I'd like to see how many Yankees games are at -200 and higher L3 years.

    According to Bookmaker's stats,
    NYY 13-10 -$43

    You'd be down $43 if you bet every Yankees game.

    Yeah not sure where Ebb is getting his numbers. Says the same thing on scoresandodds.com. You would be up 10units betting the Dodgers.

    told you this when the season started bears, correct? Told you to stay away from betting crap teams and focus on some of the stronger teams and really follow their progress. No one to blame but yourself, guess you didnt listen, good luck

    Anyone who bet Halladay vs. the Cubs - got buried
    Anyone who bet Verlander vs. KC - got buried.

    Baseball totals are where it is at. Reasonable juice and coin flips. Instead of insane juice on coin flips.

    Either bet underdogs in baseball, so you can go less than 50% hit rate, and still be alright, or don't bet at all.

    If he wants to bet just the Yanks, there are different ways you can do it.
    It's rare they get shut out in a series.

    Bet them to win on ML, if they win, quit until the next series. Lose, chase the next 2 games.

    Labby the -1.5 RL. It will minimize the juice. If they are dogs, bet the +RL.

    Simple easy money.
