    New around here, just wondering pair of 5s, is baseball your main sport to gamble on or do you spread it around?

    Pair, I’m already cringing at the number of times we will be on the Rays and Marlins this year.

    I’m going to double up on my acid reflux medication starting next week.

    Games will be a 1 to 5 unit play, with a vast majority of games being 1 or 2 units.

    I do not play everyday and we don't chase.

    On a day where I go O'fer for the day will usually be followed by a day off.

    On favorites, I play a unit to win more units (example -150, 1.50 units to win 1.00 units, conversely +150, 1.00 units to win 1.50 units.

    I will post other parameters as needed, but I think this is a good start.

    At times during the season, I might use the term SNIFF. These are games that I am looking at on my radar screen. They are not plays unless you see the term, SELECTION.

    All plays are LISTED. Pitching changes will cancel SELECTION. I don't post the listed pitchers, it's not necessary to do all that work.

    I apologize for any last minute line movement plays, that's life.

    The Contrarian Observation Tower is open early this morning. Posting our first selection of the season (yesterday evening) in rare form. I am sniffing on 3 more selections at the moment and will watch how they develop, looking for contrarian indicators that determine a play or not.
