Yeah, I hear u bro. My guys gonna have to rectify this cuz me and my buddy account for 4 players this guy has. We had the same issue with him a couple weeks back when DiceK was scratched. The thing that pisses me off is I talked to him before the game started and he told me my orig bet was good. It pisses me off that these local fuks try and screw all of us. Keep me posted on your situation MT. Other than that, solid day for all of us. Too bad I didn't have any money left to follow the rest of you and Pacos plays. Good stuff regardless, keep up the good work fellas.

It was lucky, and it was deja vu at the same time. I took what I knew from last nights game, about guys getting beaned left and right, and looked at a few stats. Now Matusz didn't perform well, but he had the ERA and whip in his favor, and his went down in his l5 and Feldman went up. So that's where I start. It played out, I'm a happy girl!

Feldman was solid and Matusz couldn't even get into the fourth. Texas has the fifth best bullpen in baseball. I don't know what the fvck is going on with their relievers all of the sudden.

Congrats on the call -- I'm just pissed right now.

thanks bud..ill let u know and u do the same...thanks for the points..

Thank you for the Tigers pick, Paco!

My Yanks play was rightfully voided because of pitcher change. My sportsbook doesn't have action wager, otherwise would have played that.

Better to be in green than in red.

melia26 · 07-10-10, 01:44 AM

It's common practice in Vegas for books to go to the first adjusted price when action bets are taken, meaning no pitchers are listed. I took the Yankees-Mariners as action at -105 feeling that the trade would going down, however I thought Hernandez may pitch and it may end up around -115 or so. I haven't cashed my ticket but my books first adjusted price was -170, so that's what I will be paid at. If the Mariners would have won and you bet that side, your price would have went up from -105 to +180 or so, so it works both ways.

DragonTrigger · 07-10-10, 01:45 AM

I just bet Atlanta and Boston but my Yankee bet is just laying there untouched. It's like they haven't figured out what to do with it yet, lol.

melia26 · 07-10-10, 01:49 AM

I'm sorry you had a bad ending to the night No Coin. Keep following Paco, he will provide more happy endings than you can handle. Well that came out real good.

nyy -180 u only had a 550.o dollar bet and nothing more would b at risk in case u would have lost

Lakers714 · 07-10-10, 01:49 AM

Next time guys, in the same situation, select pitcher vs team. I learned my lesson this time. Our bets wouldve been locked in for Hughes vs any pitcher the Ms threw out there for -110 ML.

i agree whit u on that point but how would u like to b on the other side lay-200 on a pitcher then have him replace whit a nobody and still lay the -200 just cause u click on action

melia26 · 07-10-10, 01:58 AM

Action tickets are the teams, not pitchers. Your bet is based on pitchers, that's where the line comes from. If the pitcher is changed before game time, the line is always adjusted. Your 500 is locked in for the game situational matchup that was implied, Hughes-Lee. If that situational matchup changes, which is did, the line is going to be adjusted accordingly. The books are never going to allow you to 'pull one over on them' and get the better price, unless you listed your pitchers as Hughes vs Mariners, which they would be forced to pay at that price you bought in at.

melia26 · 07-10-10, 02:02 AM

It's funny, people never say a word if they are paid more in this situation. It happened earlier this year with Boston. Just realize you can be on the positive side of this one of these days, where you take a fave at -175, and he gets injured and a replacement comes in at -120 and you win more than you thought.

MidgetTossers · 07-10-10, 02:02 AM

thanks guys..i have a better understanding but still dont like it...the books would have no problem screwing me though...whats funny is they didnt have the game up in the early morning which was weird, then put it up so i got my bet in and then i checked back and it was off the board again and then back on...if they knew what was going on they should have just left it off is my point...fukk them

That's not true. DiceK line was never removed so they had to give u the price u got since there was no other line. In actuality the books paid on the -175 rather than the -120 or -130 it should've been with his last minute replacement.

this is what i mean...the books will screw u any chance they get so what wrong with trying to screw them

melia26 · 07-10-10, 02:10 AM

Not at my book, we paid people at the adjusted price. I don't remember the exact price on the game (if I did, kill me now! that's way TMI), those were just examples, but it was much better than the original line people got.

MidgetTossers · 07-10-10, 02:12 AM

i got a headache...goin to bed now...gonna fukkin kill it tomorrow...i cant wait..goodnight all

melia26 · 07-10-10, 02:14 AM

Also, at my book if you bet 1st 5, RL or totals in tonight's game before the pitching change, then you are refunded, because pitchers are automatically listed.

Lakers714 · 07-10-10, 02:15 AM

What u guys think of morrow vs lackey in the morning?

I don't really discuss my job, but it's in Vegas. This is an issue I've had to explain to people, so I thought I'd help.
