    Phils Martingale System for the rest of the way.

    In the midst of a 20-5 run, the Phils still have not yet caught the pesky, youth-filled squad from the ATL.
    They just got Utley back and expect Howard any moment, are getting great pitching at the back end of the bullpen and have the best 1-2-3 SP in team history (not to mention the majors).
    I am going to keep track of the Phils from here on out.
    I will play the Phils money line to win 5. after a loss, we will play the Phils money line to win back the losses.
    This is just for research purposes.

    Today's play: PHI -172. 8.60 to win 5.
    YTD: 0-0-0 +$0.00

    I think you will definitely make money doing this, I would bet more money when they are at home. Have been ridiculous.

    I like that idea. Go for double when they are home. ha, but chasing down those winning could be a serious biznitch. ill consider it.

    Yeah you would need a big bankroll, tomorrows odds are crazy for Halliday at -360

    Today I look to recoup 8.60 + 5 with -370 juice. We'll wait a while to see if that line comes down. Perhaps there should be a RL rule in this chasin' with juice over 200. just a thought. we'll see how tonight goes.
    Remember, this is just for research purposes.

    YTD 0-1-0 -$8.60

    idiot.
    1) You can't conclude ANYTHING from "researching" all of 40 games
    2) Chase systems are inherently stupid since you never even consider the odds (except maybe in special cases like tonite's -360). You should never make any bet without trying to figure out your edge given the odds.

    Wow. quick to dick. it's ok, bro.
    You're absolutely wrong, though. I can learn a lot from this research for a few reasons. I can keep track of wins vs the run line, try to find the best way/trends to make money (RL in certain spots vs heavy chalk), and I get to keep a keen eye on one of the best second half teams in the bigs.
    Go for a jog or something, get some tail, anything.

    Good Luck,

    I'll be watching. Went all in with my 200 betpoints. lol

    Even if its a failed experiment you will learn something.
    In fact you learn the most from your losses and failures of the years.

    Winner last night. what a heart check!
    and i realized after the bet that i should have been going for 13.60 + 5, since now after two games im only up the winnings from one.
    See... research. haha. Ive already learned from a mistake.

    YTD 1-1-0 +$5.00

    Kyle has pitched decent as of late, and yeah S.S. is good but will not pitch the whole game.
    Love the Phils at this price.

    Yesterday was a loss, at -174. BS call and BS 'pen and BS decision. too bad those kinds of things don't matter.
    YTD 2-3-0 +$29.14
    Yesterday we lost $8.70, and failed to win our $5, so today we will go for 5+5+8.70 at a hefty opening -270.
    Gonna be some phat juice today.
    At the current line, we would risk $50.49 to win $18.70.
    I will check the line closer to game time.
