Not touching Rangers tomorrow

I'm not going to bet on Texas for at least a while. I would like to bet against them tomorrow, but Lee tends to pitch complete games.

you'll have to explain to me how 2 losses will bring you good karma.. i dont get that.. will the rangers lose 3 in a row to balt... i seriously doubt it.. no matter who is in their bullpen.. tex will win by 4 runs at least... they will win the next 2 games going into the break for a 2-2 split... they didnt want to win this series anyway because after the break they have a huge series w/ the redsox... just my opinion.. everybody has one

once you learn never to lay -300 on any game in the history of baseball humanity, a thread like this could never happen. it would be erased from existence.

I'll probably be on runline.

cmle123 · 07-10-10, 05:53 AM

why not lay money on negative 300. a win is a win. it better than losing. plus hardly ever -300 line lose, and hardly anyone chase it, so you must be very unlucky to lose -300 line

thebestthereis · 07-10-10, 06:07 AM

nobody that knows what they are doing will lay -300 on any baseball game, ever. no team under any circumstance besides a fix is that much better. if you wanna keep doing it you will need the luck, not me. free advice for you.

and of course it can win and the odds are higher than 50/50 for sure, but not 75/25. good luck!

I don't understand why more people don't bet first 5 innings. Seems like a lot of losses in late innings this year...bullpens just can' keep leads. Granted, if you were on Baltimore, you'd be glad you didn't bet 1st Five, but if you're handicapping the starting pitchers, it makes sense...

Don't expect Lee to pitch a gem in his first game with Rangers. However, Rangers will win a game by 2+ runs in these series. Today or tomorrow, you can take it to bank. It's impossible for Rangers to get swept at home by Orioles in 4-game series. Rangers are not Cardinals

yesterdays game had a opportunity to hedge your bet, as the o's were at over +1000ml live in play at one point.

Sandro777 · 07-10-10, 08:27 PM

I don't have live play nor would I hedge in that circumstance. Unless i was psychic. And hey what do you know, Texas down 3 getting no hit... I was right.

Sandro777 · 07-10-10, 08:48 PM

5-0 now in the 6th. Unless the Rangers can pull a reverse of the last two nights, a ton of ppl will be out some money tonight.

now you need to win 20 games to make up for this loss. but it didn't lose because it can't, so you don't and it won't. the real money is maid laying -500, that where the riches are cause that one really can't lose.
