The U1 I felt most confident about and 2 walks and a wild pitch setup 1st n 3rd with no outs. Then Phillips with what looked like a check swing sends a sacrifice fly to the wall.. Dammit!!Originally Posted by pokerwhiz90
im going with st louis tonight, and ill tail you for the 1 inning no score
haha yeah that sucks.. i was watching it too, but it was inevitable - the cubs are just trying to figure out how to lose the game at their earliest convenience
Glad I hit the U1 in the Marlins game..haha yeah that sucks.. i was watching it too, but it was inevitable - the cubs are just trying to figure out how to lose the game at their earliest convenience
Will prob play some picks later.. Likely Angels.. Giants.. Clippers..
i have a feeling the bulls win this one straight up, but who really knows - the wizards don't look like they have as much energy this game
Matt Cain was scratched from tonight's game, so probably staying away from the Giants..
Going to take the Angels ML & probably going to buy a point or two for the Clippers
Unreal. Giants change pitchers and that screwed up my IF bet.
Would have still played SF had I known before game.
Yep, me too; not an If Bet, but a decent bet on RL and ML on Giants. Made me understand that you really need to think about it before you select the listed pitcher. Cain's ERA is 4+; I would have made the bet anyway and took a shot vs San Diego...Unreal. Giants change pitchers and that screwed up my IF bet.

How does an IF bet work?! I've never tried it. Primarily stick to straight bets, parlays and teasers..Unreal. Giants change pitchers and that screwed up my IF bet.

And hitting the Angels & Clippers (-5.5) last night put me back in the positive for the week. Only at +$4.00 for this week, but it's better than being in the negative haha
Going to look at some early MLB action.. Liking the Tigers, but need to do some research.. Also liking Chelsea ML today against Atletico Madrid. Don't see them losing at home, after a HUGE win on Sunday against Liverpool, and they rested a lot of players.
unbelievable yankees. 2-0 up, sabathia screws up in the fifth, 4 runs. agains this lowly seattle. Baseball can be so unbelievably frustrating
Yeah that sucked. I had a nice parlay with the Yankees, Red Sox, Angels and Clippers (-5), and the Yankees screwed me overunbelievable yankees. 2-0 up, sabathia screws up in the fifth, 4 runs. agains this lowly seattle. Baseball can be so unbelievably frustratingThought they would cruise after going up 2-0..
An IF bet is more for money management.
If I like quite a few games, I will put the game that starts last of the games I like at the beginning. Basically if they win, then you go to the 2nd bet, then the 3rd, 4th and so on.
Not always the best way, but you could potentially go like 1-4 and be in a big hole.
The 2nd bet in the sequence is my strongest play of an earlier game. Today it will be Orioles +1.5 / Cards +1.5...then a 3rd straight wager.
My 1st bet, if 5Dimes will ever work today, is a pretty safe one...Parlay: SF -1 / Nats +1.5
So pretty much if the 2nd and 3rd bets in the string hit (or are pretty much going to hit) by the time the last game starts, I will hedge with the opposing team (for today it will be SD +1)
Liking the Tigers in the early game. As well as the Cardinals.. Braun and Ramirez out.. Can the Brew Crew sweep the Cards?
Going to do some more research right now.. Share your thoughts on both these games..
Cardinals ML - Risking $35.25 to win $25
Brewers / Cardinals (U1 1st Inning) - Risking $33.75 to win $25
ouch i wish i came in sooner to tell you not to take the cardinal U1 1st inning.... garza has been average against the cardinals in his career, him wearing a brewcrew uniform doesnt change that unfortunately but your cardinals ml should cash!
also i have a parlay with the cards and tigers, hopefully it cashes!
