DraftKings MLB Up 2 Early Win Promo

[Covering the #]

Went with A's +120. Wood has an extra day off more than Heaney, and every game Heaney has pitched, Texas has lost. Yes, I know taking home teams are shrinking the percentages for me, but there's a limited card tonight so I'm sticking with it lol. And I'm limited to $10 for this but it's still a worthwhile promotion. I actually like the over 7.5 much better but for this thread A's it is.

[stevenash]

Mariners (PK)
Castillo

[SBR Andy]

The definition of a "hold your nose" play tonight:

Marlins +280 vs Dodgers

At nearly a 3/1 price, I'm taking a shot on Walker Buehler having some rust in his first start since June of 2022. Hopefully the fish can get 2 early before the Dodgers bats wake up and bury them lol

[SBR Andy]

Don't love going against Glasnow and the Dodgers but can't pass up a +160 price on the Braves tonight

[SBR Andy]

Mets cash it in the top of the 2nd!.Then quickly blow the lead in the bottom half lol. Early win comes through again!

[Keith Richard]

I took the Marlins tonight.

[SBR Andy]

Sorry I didn't posit earlier but tool Cleveland win up 2-0 early yet down 7-2 now. I been lucky with these too bad 50 limits.

Second time they did that this week! Love the early win.

Rockies had plenty of chances yesterday but ultimately fell in extras. Today had it narrowed down to Tigers and Mets and opted to go Mets +130 vs the Rays. Civale has struggled in back to back outings.

I saw the White Sox, despite having a 6-25 record, have cashed the early win in 7 straight games lol! Is anyone taking a shot at their +225 vs the Cards tonight?

I also took the Nationals today.

Didn't even get to 2 runs but Nats hung on 1-0 to cash the +170 last night.

They are probably the top +EV play again today but that's back to back days where they've only scored 1 run. I'm gonna turn to the noon start degen toilet bowl special and back the Rockies +136 over the Marlins.

[Keith Richard]

I also took the Nationals today.

[wombat]

Also there are some people that get more than the 250 max. My buddy gets 500 max and he let me bet with him to take advantage of the promo

[wombat]

This promo is available again today. Hopefully they run it through entire May.

[SBR Andy]

Definitely a fishy line here today on two teams with inverse records but I will bite:

Cleveland +145 over Houston

Saw the beauty of this promo in action last night. Cleveland scores 3 in the top of the 1st to cash it 5 minutes into the game. Fast forward to the 4th inning and they are down 8-3 lol.

Looks like DK may be running it past April as well - back up again today on May 1st.

This line keeps going higher and I hate going against my squad, but taking the Nats +160 tonight.

[Keith Richard]

I took St.Louis Cardinals today.

[stevenash]

Nice call! Yes of course the Yanks get shutout after scoring 30 runs in the 2 games prior. Shoulda stuck with my gut on KC it woulda cashed in the 1st inning. Oh well.


Old fashioned pitcher's duel. Mitch Garver with the walk off homer to win it for you!

Total was seven flat pretty much all day.
I said to Ally "It's seven for a reason."
Man, that game was as good as it gets last night.
I made a point to stay up late to watch that.

You ever get that feeling hours before a game starts that it smells like it could be a classic?

Seattle's starting rotation one though four is so good it's scary.
Their staff ace Castillo gets the call tonight.

careful

I don't trust Carlos C and Houston finally remembered how to win a few games in Mexico City now maybe their bats stay hot

[ThaTopMoron]

i hate this promo

i used it on KC a few games ago and they went up 1-0 v Detroit early on and didn't get a clutch hit forever in the game but they were still up 1-0 going into the top of the 9th and how did they finally get that 2nd run? 2 on, a guy gets walked and then a guy gets hit...

i want to win early and move on or have it look like a bad bet and just move on from it and then if you win by big comeback or something later on that's cool

i only use it on +100 or longer

[SBR Andy]

[SBR Andy]

Was considering taking Yankees then decided on Washington. Just went up 2-0 top of the 3rd ...winner. These are fun bets.

Dual no hitters through six full.
I loved this matchup all day.

Bryce Miller and Max Fried throwing absolute lights out masterpieces.
Something has to give though; Max is at 100 pitches thrown already.

Baseball.
Like it used to be!

Seattle +144

I love this matchup.
Max (The Other Max) coming off a monster effort last time out v. RHP Bryce Miller.
Millers across the board through five starts are rock solid.

I'm a sucker for live bow-wows.
Mariners +144

[SBR Andy]

Was away for a few days and didn't have access to DK. Back on the saddle today and going with Yankees +110.

Debated the Royals +140 but can't pass up the Yanks batting first coming off back to back games where they scored 15 runs.

[cobra_king]

Only $10 here and on pretty much any promo I am offered. I don't bet these optimally anymore hoping I can get pegged a square again!

[Keith Richard]

I think I was getting 10 limits last year. This season I've been getting 50 limit. At least that is worth taking a shot for.

[magpie878]

I was slashed to $10 on most promos for a while but was bumped up to $100 on this one. The only thing I can think of is I made another deposit recently, not sure if that triggered the limit change.

Curious to know what others are getting on the Early Win promo.

Was a time where I was limit-crippled, too, with $10 maxes. Some $25 still. These Early-Wins have been $100 max.

[SBR Andy]

How much can you guys bet on this? $10 is kinda pathetic.

Going against the usual high total strategy and taking Red Sox +120 tonight. They already faced Carrasco on April 18th so will get a 2nd look at him in just 6 days.

[SBR Andy]

I grabbed Boston +102 for this promo today

because Boston pitcher dominated Guardians last start and Boston is on a little win streak on the road right now

Red Sox just couldn't get anything going tonight but have been a consistent play for this.

Dbacks put up 4 in the top of the 3rd to get it done!

Tigers.

Easy winner there. Marlins not so much. Tough to cash the early win when you fail to score a run lol

Not going against the Braves again tonight. Switching gears to the Dbacks +114 vs the Cardinals. Averaging 5.5 runs per game so far this season to the Cards' 3.5.

Giddy up

[stevenash]

Tigers.

[SBR Andy]

After going down 3-0 last night, the Rangers stormed back to cash the early win in the top of the 8th. Cue Coach Lou from Major League 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sslDOP1Kqqc


Tough slate to choose from today. Don't love going against the Braves two days in a row but Elder is making his 1st start of the year so banking on some rust. Weathers has been one of the lone bright spots for Miami so hopefully can keep the Braves' bats at bay.

Marlins +170

[SBR Andy]

Mets got the job done yesterday.

Will go back to the well with the Rangers +142 tonight. The Braves are looking very solid but can't turn down that price with the 10 run total.
