    No more favorites... Dog plays for Monday
    Alright... I've made a decision! I wont bet anymore favorites unless I feel that it is a VERY strong play and the juice isn't more than -150! (or unless its a O/U favorite) I don't know why it took me all season to realize I would be up way more units if I only played my underdog bets. For example... Today I went 5-5... 5 dogs won, 1 dog lost, and 4 favorites lost. still profited for the day because of the dogs, but would have made way more if I didn't bet the favorites. I have had many days like this. Way more than the days where all my dog plays lose and the favorites win. So from now on, only dogs unless its a very strong play. I will be doing the same when hockey starts. Here is what I am taking for Monday :

    St Louis Cardinals +116
    J. Westbrook must start Y. Gallardo must start

    Chicago White Sox +113
    E. Jackson must start M. Scherzer must start


    I may be adding something else later in the day, just waiting for the starters/odds in NYY/BAL and the 2 FLO/PHI games.


    Goodluck tomorrow everyone! Time to beat the bookies

        The favorites buried people this last week. I've lost all confidence and taking a few days off..BOL

            i think dogs went like 9-3 today. there are also days when favorites go 10-3 on the moneyline. the trick is to not overreact to last night's results.

                      Yesterday I put my plays on the Jays, Brewers, Reds and Giants. The Reds turned me down.

                            I'm undecisive about going for the O's mL. AJ Burnett at home use to give up a lot of HR's and runs. But looks like he cut back lately.

                                  Indians look good as dogs. They face Haren who has been losing at home a lot.

                                        you should drop the "unless" part now
                                        small favorites will kill you
                                        it should be dog or nothing all the way
                                        the only way you should take a favorite is in small dollar parlays
