    Exhibits A-Z why baseball is unbettable.

    Phillies fighting for their playoff lives -260 against PIT. Small $200 parlay with the Jays which seams reasonable. Bases loaded 2 outs, 0-2 count against a rookie pitcher making his 1st ever plate appearance. Bloops a 2 run single over 3rd, next guy hits a 3 run HR. Nobody to blame but myself for betting this shit. Literally no different than playing in an online casino.

    Same here.. Game 2 of that series when they lost 5-4 in the 9th. Piece of shit A's can't even salvage one game getting swept at home killing another parlay

    I have Philly and over 9 parlayed. It's only the 3rd inning. I've seen enough of the Pirates to know that no matter what lead they have, it is never safe.

    At least you got the over taken care of & the Phils are now +169 live. Came back from down 7-0 to Cubs last week so this is doable as long as they hold them to 6 runs.

    Appreciate that teach (thanks for the 12 points last week). Watch the Phils come back just for the Jays to lose who I also just live bet up 1-0.

    Took them live down 6-5 but long way to go with this shitty bullpen. Considering Pitt live +700 to hedge the risk but I still need the Jays so I'll let it ride.

    Unbettable because you thought a -260 game is a lock?
    That is why you lose

    But Phillies are gonna win anyway
    Pirates blew a 6-0 lead

    Baseball is a grind latgely about value and not an individual game unless youare looking to be a system on a rare occasion

    it's unbettable because you're parlaying things that aren't correlated

    The line has nothing to do with it. Unbettable cuz of all the variables involved such as the ones I pointed out for them to be down 5-0. Them coming back to win is irrelevant. Nola could've easily gotten out of that inning scoreless & they still could've gone on to lose the game but everything went wrong in that inning for them to be down 5-0 & they're still gonna win. That's what I mean by unbettable. NBA and NFL you at least have an edge live betting getting points. 0 edge live betting baseball. Nothing but dumb luck & complete randomness.

    Unless you're talking about side & total in the same game what could you even bet that is correlated? If the spread & total Is less than 3X in NFL/college 2H you can't even parlay that.

    baseball is tough

    started can pitch a gem and offense puts up no run support or bullpen blows it

    or in this scenario, Pirates up 6-0 and then lose. Think of those bettors thinking how bad of a beat they had it
