Just trying not to lose... not doing a good job of that however

[jjgold]

I say this in lots of posts parity is what is killing cappers

[funnyb25]

Baseball is by far the toughest sport to cap...too many moving parts...

[BIGDAY]

Pound the winners is key.

[Cuse0323]

Expect to lose because of a shit bullpen. That's my strategy, and it wins more often than not.

I always laugh in March, or April when people get excited for baseball.

It is the same with every sport for most fans....Get excited for the next one to start because the previous one buried them...Rinse and repeat throughout the year...

[teaserpleaser]

It's baseball I see guys on here coming in with their winning baseball threads throwing their cocks on the table but at the end of the day it's pretty much rolling the dice and luck....

You can't predict errors,who the manager is bringing in , the starting pitcher being off,

even when backing kershaw and paying that premium to do so

it's still fingers crossed that he's on and the Dodgers can score which they usually do.

he gave up 6 runs not to long ago

throwing darts.

look at the Rangers yesterday you can't cap that

Baseball is easy. I don't put in the time required because I enjoy the weather (which you have year round). The years I put in the time I made big money on it.

1. Always check out series prices

2. Look closely at alternate runlines.

3. Take a look at team totals.

4. Never take a home team on the RL.

5. Try to avoid betting the daytime weekday games.

That's a fact. People looking forward to CFB already, just to get buried. Though, I am as well as it's my best sport. If only this damn BTC crap would work, and verify me holding up my ID, and all that.

Anyway. Best o' luck to you as well, funnyb

The time thing is an excuse to protect your ego

I noticed you used it in that baseball thread a few days ago when you had a bad day.

And baseballis is not easy

it's random as hell with a lot of unknown moving parts like if that manager is deciding to save his arms down by one run in the 6th inning he thinks it's a good idea to bring in some gas can or the kid from AAA who was getting worn out in AAA. Both of these happened in the last two weeks by the way.

Every bookie ive met loves baseball and makes a killing

every book manager in Vegas I've talked to says they do well in baseball

you have almost 60k posts on here and you're in here pretty much all day whenever I log on you seem to be here.

I dont think time is a valid excuse. Especially if it's easy right .

also think that 1-5 is some bullshit but to each his own

I don't play RLs so I guess we agree there.

[CappinTerp]

Baseball has been much harder to bet,because the game has become so specialized. However,for myself will not lay more than -135, and bet mostly dogs..............and as in all sports...do not chase losses...no matter what.

[slayer14]

If a decent pitcher is pitching bet the under

[RangeFinder]

The key to any bet is getting the right number. That being said, the number is created by the oddsmakers on how they feel the public will see the game, and the sports bettor MUST create a number that will show a profit over the long term. Here are some key things to remember when betting sports, or any other form of gambling:

1. You must be able to create your own numbers BEFORE looking at the current numbers on the board. This way you know how you stand on a game, no matter what sport. One of the things I always hear is somebody saying they like team A a little bit, while saying they like team B in another game a lot. Well, how much is "a little bit, and how much is "a lot"? You won't know unless you have your own numbers.

2. Focus on your numbers. People mentioned above posts that baseball has too much parity, and another post I read that baseball has too many moving parts, or, in another bullpens will do you in. Okay, all may be true, but my question to you all is which sport doesn't have all that? Instead of the complaining or worrying about the intricacies of the sport you are playing, in this case baseball, how about focusing your attention on getting the right number? How you do this is up to you, there are many ways of creating numbers for baseball. You will have to toy with different methods to find what works for you. That being said, if your numbers are far off the actual numbers on the board, then you need to adjust. Numbers are not that far off, you might find one game or two in a given day, but if you're finding 5 or more, you numbers need adjustments. Books just don't make that many mistakes, ever.

3. Don't get discouraged when things are going bad. Even your best sports bettors in the world can go month's without showing a profit, but will always show a profit at the end of the year. It takes patience.

4. Money management. The biggest mistake of all sports bettors that lose. they simply don't have the bankroll to go through a whole year or even one season of whatever sport they are playing. I see this all the time reading through the forums. General rule of thumb, never play more that 2% of your total bankroll. I know that seems way too low for most, but trust me, you will never profit if you go more that. It's statistically impossible.

5. Don't forget to have fun.

[Jowframs]

4 and 5 Absolutely.....RangeFinder

[MinnesotaFats]

Home teams that have won 2 of 3, pound then for the 3 game sweep.

Road teams that are losing will continue to lose.

Any team above .515 win% at plus money is value, can increase wagers on that win% at +/ev and find profit at weeks end.

First 5 ML favorite are more of a solid wager then full game.

[FUqer]

Stalk the hitting coach for the minor league affiliate team and ask him his thoughts on the next MLB game and then risk everything you have on it.

Yea, Baseball 101...Never bet on a hot team to loose and Never bet on a cold team to win.......one will have many oppty........Any out there remember the 1988 Baltimore Team ?..................................Started the season 0-23!!!! ....Think about how many people said...they won't go 0-11....0-14.....ect.

As for books they pay people don't bases as they get killed on bases. Thats a fact because dogs win so often. Baseball is the only sport where books consistently lose money.

Books clean house in NBA and NFL and obviously on soccer. Hockey too low volume but the fact the limits are so low on NHL tells you all you need to know.

Why are NFL and NBA limits so high? 30 k at pinny on epl as well. NHL 6k only.

This sounds like something a long term losing MLB sports bettor would say.

I don't know you so it's possible you've never wagered on MLB but I can assure you luck (and rolling dice) has very little do
with being an advantage MLB player.

especially betting the Nats, theyve cost me thousands with their 9th in blows

I have a "friend" who used to run a book.. baseball could get brutal for the book, so i concur.. People also do really well with NHL

[lakerboy]

I also agree with love teaserpleaser that time is not a valid excuse

Lack of interest brother. You love baseball and you put in the time and do well. I respect that.

I will continue my bases thread on Monday. Let's see how I do until the playoffs are over. All plays will be 1-3 units.

MLB try to ride the hot teams

[shocka1212]

Try and survive until NFL starts.

[JIBBBY]

Baseball is easy.. If you aren't doing well picking straight winners then think outside the box and just look at the teams banging in the most runs daily and play them on the Over runs for that game especially when they are going up against average to shiity pitchers...

It's usually -4.5 to -5.5 runs for those hot teams. That's always been a bread and butter play for me with betting MLB when I'm hit and miss on the straights.

For example the Red Sox is one of those hot offensive teams, facing an average pitcher this morning.. The expectation in my mind was runs will be scored again by the Red Sox.. Sure enough Boston is banging in runs early already..https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boston-...ays-370701114/
