    I agree. Parlays are a way of trying to maximize potential winnings on heavy favs, but unfortunately upsets happen. It's like walking through a minefield with them...you never know when and which favorite is going to blow it for you. It's great when they hit, but so frustrating when a team blows it especially when all signs point to an easy win. I guess that's why they call it gambling and why the books stay in business.

    BOL to you Curious & thanks for posting.

                        nice start to the day, Phillies win

                        Phillies won a rocking chair winner. Hopefully this is the start to a good day for us.

                                                    Can you say Brewers Rattlesnakes OVER 10 boyz and girlz. -105 8.4 to win 8

                                                                W-L Summary

                                                                34-21 +23.3 units

                                                                Okay, here's the deal. The way I cap, I almost never get blown out. Some days are more Ls than Ws but truly awful days are rare.

                                                                So, I'm going to be playing a slight negative progression on the W-L percentage. What that means is, I will start at 3 units per game, if a card is a net winner, I will stay at 3 units per game, if a card is a net loser I will increase to 5 units, then 8, then 10, etc. When a card is a big net winner I will reset at 3 units.

                                                                I am explaining this because if you are playing my picks you need a bankroll that can stand some drawdowns to play this way. If you don't have the bankroll to support this style of play just play everything at 1 unit.

                                                                For example, we are up 24 units right now but we made all those units yesterday because I moved the bet size to 8 units.

                                                                anyway, we will make money this year.

                                                                                        The crackhead moderators restricted my account so I can't edit posts to keep a running tally of all the picks and the results. The only way I can do that is to make a quote and make a new post and that's a real pain.

                                                                                        Read my blog and you'll see why I have a restricted account.

                                                                                            Anyway, there is a W-L summary post a few posts back that gives the W-L and unit totals for all the plays I have posted in this thread so far.

                                                                                                    I don't know, I didn't double check the odds. The late play I posted was the OVER in the Brewers game, that loss is reflected in the summary stats here: http://forum.sbrforum.com/baseball-h...ml#post4454389

                                                                                                    I think the summary stats are more or less correct for every play I have posted.

                                                                                                    The crackhead moderators restricted my account so I can't edit posts to keep a running tally of all the picks and the results. The only way I can do that is to make a quote and make a new post and that's a real pain.

                                                                                                    Read my blog and you'll see why I have a restricted account.
