    Best of luck to you, I do agree that dog betting is the way to go in Baseball, but seems like you have a ood strategy. See how it plays out on paper for one or two years though. Since you have last years, just play this year on paper and if it wins, put lots of money down in the 2011 season.

    Have you tried this sort of thing with hockey?

    BOL

    thanks man, if this year's test is successful i will definately being going bigger in 2011. i'm hoping for a successful season, profits aren't expected to be much by betting small but there is little chance i will get hurt by this. Nope, never tried this on hockey. and now its too late in the season to try.....maybe next year. I guess you can say my main reason for doing this is because i'm sick of handicapping games...just to lose and then end up tilting because of it. this way i can pick 1-4 games in no time.

    This is not a chase system right? Because chase systems + faves only picks = going broke for sure

    i've decided i will be using and improvised chase with the top 2 teams, and no chasing with the other 2 teams. I will probly tweak it along the way. but nothing more than -300 odds.
    the test of last year's system plays showed NYY biggest system lose streak was 3, BOS had a few system losing streak of 2. while the chi cub's had one of 5 and anaheim had one of 6.
    Example(NYY 3 games system lose streak last year)
    NYY +101 bet 1 unit.... Lost...next play would have been
    NYY -168 tw 1 unit..Lost...next play would have been
    NYY +103 bet 2.68 units..Lost.. next play would have been
    NYY -128 tw 5 units...win then start back at 1.

    if this only happens a couple times a season it won't be too bad. i'm going to try to keep it as low risk as possible.

    thanks pat, i never even thought about that, looking over the back test it looks like the away system picks went 58.2% while the home picks went 66.4%. seeing this now has changed my mind. away system picks will be 1 unit, home teams will be 2.

    Something to consider since you're only using a few, four?, teams is the amount of bullpen used the previous game as teams generally have two sets of relief pitchers or look into first half using listed starting pitchers to cut back some of the juice. Just trying to give you a couple of ideas to think about before the season gets to far along and then becomes "a chore" to back check. and

    ya only 4 teams, i may add some along the way. to be honest TA, i know nothing about baseball or pitchers or anything related to the sport. i'll look into this but will probly hold off on betting the first halfs until i see/find something that will work. all my bets are system plays which are blindly bet regardless of who's pitching. thanks for the idea, i'll look in to it.

    the juice isn't really a concern for me as long as it stays under -300.

    Nice day yesterday!!! 3 and ohh.
    I think that no bet on the away teams when they are leading the series 2-0 is a good plan. Good luck today, liking Boston today.
