    How much action does a rubberband play create?

    I noticed a lot of posters just had to bet on the last Cubs game because it was a rubberband play. I got caught up in the excitement and made a play on the game too.

    Clearly lots of people are tailing or fading just because a game's a rubberband play... how much action do you think is created from these plays?

    My guess is at least $10,000 all told but that's a shot in the dark. What do you think?

    i don't know but the sbr sportsbook takes the play off the board because it get hammer with so much sharp action after the release.

    i can never get the bet in.

    Brock has to phone in his bets now. I hear he keeps a roll of quarters at ready for the payphone outside the YMCA.

    A true rubber band play is the big one. No not the earthquake that breaks California off into the Pacific Ocean, but the strongest play from anyone anywhere. It sends tremors up and down the Vegas strip.

    So it doesn't really mean anything other than some guy really really likes the play? I thought it was some system play...lol.

    i thought about it for about two seconds, and came up with that it means you need a rubber band to keep that wadd of money in your pocket as you stroll to the betting window.

    As good a guess as any...I was thinking it was something more scientific lol. Someone answered so you're not the first but I'll shoot you points anyway.

    gives you rubberband legs because of how nervous and stressful the game will be. Legs gave out twice, once before and once during the game for yesterdays Dodgers Cubs rubberband play.

    A rubber band play is supposed to be a "snap back" from a loss the prior day

    The problem with brock is that almost all of his rubberband play snapbacks end up snapping himself

    It's because you really have to stretch your imagination if you think brock can pick consistent winners?

    Its because you reach into your left pocket and unwrap the rubberband from your bigger knot of large bills to bet on the game he posted is why its called a rubberband play.
