I feel your pain but only a dummy would lay 5 large on a total, especially a very high total at that....go walk it off

Id lay 5k on anything I felt strongly about? No matter what type of bet it is, I feel if you have a good read on it, its all the same. Or am I missing something?

Thanks, definitely taking a longer than usual walk.

And my unit sizes are 3k, so it was under a 2 unit play for me. Just FYI.

Been there many times and I’m an Over bettor myself but usually try to stay away if I see at least one decent pitcher in this case Cole Hamels, on to the next get em back!

I have never had more of a frustrating game today. Lay 5650 to win 5000 on the over 11.5. Rockies have many opportunities to score and are shutout to the last out in the bottom of the 9th and get a free run as Cubs let him steal 2nd and 3rd.

I am in shock. I have not seen the Rockies blank like this at Coors ever in my life. I cant recall the last time they scored under 3/4 runs at home.

5 runs in 1.5 innings. 8 runs in 4.5 innings. And it ends 10-1 all the while Russell gets a groundout that would have been safe and an RBI for the over, but in a blowout Maddon doesnt challenge it for the run. Why wouldnt you challenge? Dont you want your players getting a hit and RBI?

Most frustrating thing Ive watched for 3.5 hours in my entire life. Boy oh boy.

BOL to you all. Time to take 7 days off and get a breather.

you are in "shock" ????? are you a gambler or a fortune teller .Probability has nothing to do with gambling . Coles was masterful in his last two starts only an idiot would have placed 5G on a total just because coors field. AMATUER

I didnt do it just because it was Coors field. I did it because I liked the matchups on both ends. Yes, Hamels historically is good in Coors. But Rockies also crush Lefties and outside of the St Louis games, Hamels has struggles to locate pitches. Rockies had bases loaded in the bottom of the 1st with 1 out off the bat. Every inning they had scoring opportunities with 7 hits, 0-5 RISP, and 17 LOB.

Saying amateur and stupid when the game loses by a hook and a team who averages over 5 runs a game at home and gets almost blanked to still end at 11 on an 11.5 makes me think you saw this game as a 1-0 ending. Cubs score 10 runs, that over hits in Coors 99.9% of the time. And I would have bet 10X as much if you tell me Cubs score 10 runs.

And 5k is about 2.5 units for me. Should have just said I put 2.5 units on it and would you feel different?

And yes, I am in shock. Rockies almost got shut out at home if it wernt for a gimme run to steal from 1st to 3rd in B9. I will be in shock anytime I see the Rockies on the verge of getting shutout at home with 17 men LOB.

Thank you, this was a big edge I saw even though Hamels does good in Coors, but that can only keep up for so long. Arenado getting taken out in the 3rd hurt bad. Having him and Story in the lineup vs a Lefty always produces at least 1 HR.
