    Let Tonight be a Lesson for Dodger Backers...

    You Don't take a team as a -300 favorite when ANY of the following situations apply:

    - Your TWO best players are out
    - Team first game home after a long trip on opposite coast
    - Your team has an INFERIOR record than the opposition
    - Your Team is on a Long losing streak and Opposition is on a winning streak

    Everyone of those applied to Dodgers tonight
    Hopefully your bankroll has lived to see tomorrow

    Ya I read a thread about Pirates destroyed bullpen etc. I didn't have time to look into it that deep b/c of family obligations and went with a trusted friend. This is my lesson. I will fade them and houston in specific situations for a while and make some money

    Profit,

    You have been around a long time, and especially in this business that matters. However, as a majority favorite bettor there are spots when laying a lot (-200 or more) of chalk is profitable in MLB. Granted its probably only 1 out of 10 -200 or greater but it does happen

    After watching the Dodgers lose 3 games in 24 hours to the Mets I wouldn't be laying that kind of juice on the Dodgers anytime soon. They're a mess.
