good luck

[Biff Webster]

are you going all in 6 or 7 times to get to 10k? Or are you just trying to get some more to play with.

[chubber911]

My response was

Then I saw how much you're betting on your first play, and now

[OtherSide]

Season already over after today J/k Good luck man!

[Wilforth]

Neither side will get more than 2 runs in the FF. FF Under 5 is the play. The Nats bullpen is too generous to go all in on the Under for the entire game.

[jayc88]

gl

[DrStale]

Nope.

[paco]

Hope u hit. If not, stop abd save cash for football

[andrewaxia]

Play #2:
Rockies -130
$456.04 to win $350.80

[OtherSide]

Nice hit man. Good luck!

[paco]

Rockies up 4-1. Looking good, the way pads been batting, pretty safe to say this is in the bag. Good job

[andrewaxia]

Haha still a long long way to go (for the goal that is). I should note I'll also be making plays on other sports not just baseball, although I'll still post them on this thread (this thread should have been started on players talk but I screwed up)

[JayRow]

Andrewaxia, Are you going ALL IN every time?

[wtf]

good thread ande

keep rockin!

[Crash]

go baby go!!!!! im gonna tail every pick and see how far we go!!!

[InTheHole]

Good Luck My Man

[OB 2138]

good shit man

[andrewaxia]

No I won't be going all in everytime, although large bets will be the norm. I will be aggressive with this.

[andrewaxia]

THURSDAY: 2-0
Original Bank Roll: $250
New Bank Roll: $806.84

[oda11]

Dang, good luck man!

[andrewaxia]

We will begin with GOLF on Friday morning.

ROUND 2 MATCHUPS - From The Greek
Sergio Garcia -110 (over Henrik Stenson)
Risking $550 to win $500
(Remaining balance $256.84)

I wanted an early morning play. I was originally looking at Verdasco over Monaco but his form has been real poor as of late so I went with golf

[Nickelicious]

Sergio is playing well and he predicted if he keeps playing like this, he can beat anybody, including Tiger.

I can't argue against that bet. Except for the case that this is still gambling and anything can happen.

GL, you're on a good ride and I hope it lasts.

[xxdjstriderxx]

you are a professional gambler.

[andrewaxia]

WTA Internazionali Femminili di Palermo - Italy
Yaroslava Shvedova -120 (over Sara Errani)
RISKING $256.84 TO WIN $214.03
Remaining balance ($0)

Going with a tennis pick while I sweat out Garcia. This line is VERY low and that worries me, but I have to play it.

[themajormt]

Did Serg tee off yet?

[andrewaxia]

Yea up 1 stroke after 7 holes.

[andrewaxia]

He also missed a birdie on hole 2 by 1cm. The ball was just lying at the edge of the hole. Painful just painful.

[themajormt]

Well at least you have a cushion... He's just getting warmed up, he'll shoot a -3 on the back...

[Beastxxx]

Good Luck Dude. I will be keeping and eye on this thead

[thespeculator]

if you are going to bet , i not go for it , all this shiit of breaking your bankroll into 20 and blah blah, way to swing for the fences, good luck, if you lose try again

[andrewaxia]

Lost $256.84 with my tennis pick. Don't regret it as the stats clearly favored Shvedova. Garcia up a stroke heading into the 18th. Putts have killed him today. Easily could be up 3-4 strokes. Hopefully he doesn't break down on the 18th.

[andrewaxia]

Sergio wins by 1 stroke.

Current Bankroll: $1,050 (3-1 record)

Nothing really stands out for baseball tonight (except for some -200 favs :-) Taking a lunch break to regroup. If I do make a play tonight (and chances are I will) it will be up by 6pm ET.

[themajormt]

make sure you eat a good lunch... Some good brain food!
