    Spank - my book won’t let me buy runs in a favorite. Would you happen to know the prior win/loss records if we just took the ML on favorites? Thanks!

    Anything over -350 I take the otherside (I do not care who the team is) Every time.... I easily go 60% on those games and at +280 odds you stay in the black, no need to chase. It seems like teams get complacent when they are such a heavy favorite.

    Astros are -170 on the moneyline. We were talking about taking them on the reverse (alternate) run line +1.5

    Hey spank, playing these high favs could be pricey on a couple of C or B bets... what % of your BR do you have in play when playing 3 systems like you are doing? Assuming $100=1% of your roll, there could be times where you have a big chunk in play.

    That is correct. I roll off $10,000 per system. $100 unit wins

    Look for teams that lost 3 games in a row SU and RL (lose by 2 or more runs).
    Start a 3 game chase. If the dog, bet on the +RL, if favorite take the ML.

    Look for teams that have lost 4 games SU and against the RL (lose by 2 or more runs). We will than start a 3-game chase. Whether a dog or favorite we will play the +RL.

    There's two variations of that otherwise same system. Looking4Winners System #1 says bet the favorite on the moneyline.

    spankmythighs variation says to bet the favorite on the alternate runline, or +1.5

    Your choice...

    I would run them all as separate systems. Should return close to +400 units with recoup

    Looking4Winners could you post the median win/loss ration for your system over the last say 6-8 years? Would you be able to dig that up? Regards sir

    @oilcountry99 great idea. Fire that up! I have an Excel sheet that I use with all the games for the season for each team and I highlight the games that fall into the systems. Then I just post here.

    Using your 'recoup strategy' wouldn't it be better to just play looking for winners strategy instead of the +1.5RL on favorites. Does the +1.5 RL save you that many series to make it worthwhile?

    You could just run his and double up the unit size and then run the Sweep aswell. Lots of options

    Okay my fault didn't see the difference in System 3. So if first bet loses you the second bet is to win 1 unit plus the cost of the lose from the previous bet?
