People have been following my posts for year and criticizing the same. I think Dynasty likes to bust balls in jest. I believe he knows what we are trying to do here. It's as easy to fade as it is to follow.

We were back at it with the late game selection by FADING THE BIG MOVE. Angels opened -119 and closed at -152. Under certain criteria, this became a play.

The Braves grind out the win, in late innings after FADE THE BIG MOVE. Looks like a little traction going forward

Yesterday's recap brings us to FADE THE BIG MOVE play. Mets opened -135 closing at -157. We fade it for the win, 3-2 60% ROI for this fading play. Congrats to any followers on their commitment to stick with the selections. It seems it gets quiet in here on the cashes, and noisy on the loses. Nonetheless, all the same. We make money, that's all that matters.
In the final stages of spending eight glorious nights in Las Vegas with some close friends. As I've said, capping and cocktails. An appearance at the Superbook is in order. Would love to shake a few hands and exchange some capping ideas. I will be there starting Friday, April 27th through May 5th, if you are interested.

Seems we are getting a little momentum with our selections, just in time for my trip to Las Vegas. Still the focus is on 50 units, give or take a few depending on trending. FADE THE BIG MOVE play is generating 60% ROI with extremely small sample size. As we know, with 275 selections or so to go, discipline, Money Management and selection criteria rules the day.
To our followers, tell others to join in the fun. Let us know how you're doin.

P5, how are your unit sizes in relation to your total bankroll? I.e. how many % of your BR = 1 u etc. Thanks in advance!

3% Bankroll divided by 5. That establishes $/unit.
Have you looked at marlins / dodgers? These starters are going to walk people a lot, so maybe an opportunity to sneak in a dog wager here?

Found an excuse to pass on that one.

No, saw an interesting opportunity with the line provided that meets contrarian criteria.

71% bets on Atlanta, clearly overwhelming favorite. When Bookmaker made the FF -.50 +100, it was a clear indicator of inviting ATL FF action. Pathetic Reds were -120 now at -140 with the .50.

Don't get any more contrarian than playing dumpster fire reds at that price!! Pair of 5's got balls of steel!! I'm down with fading the consensus when I think it warranted but man I just can't touch the reds right now, they single handedly responsible for cardinals having a winning record! We 6-8 vs everyone not named cincy but 7-0 vs hapless reds with only 2 of those 7 even being remotely close!! Lol., Honestly not even sure they get it in, weather report looked pretty crappy when I checked.

The pathetic Reds cash for the non-believers on the first five fiasco (great alliteration). Need not say anymore.

Maybe more people will become loyal followers here. It seems they only drop in on the losses.
