    If you bet favorites and aren't up big this season
    then you must absolutely suck

    Since May 1st

    836 - 556 +77.87 Units

    We are nearing the end of a record setting season for favorites and if you bet them, and aren't up 30+ Units, hang it up.

    Of course my data only covers the prior 23,000+ games entering this season.

    But this will be the first time in 10 seasons that the favorites have finished up on the year.

      Also one more thing... I watched a guy like no coin loses 2 huge bets on the dodgers vs. Phillies 810 10 units and rays last night 7 units... because of the way the line was set up and the movement.... look how those worked out... the better team won in both cases, the game is played on the field... take the better team

        also I might add, don't bet teams this time of year who have nothing to play for. their just waiting for the season to end so they can go home and count their money. Bet the games that mean something

          Since you seem so upset, you must have been backing the dogs!!!

              Been killing it. I'm too lazy to keep track but my $20 bets have been paying my rent, phone and goodies.

                  Merely an innocent bystander that enjoys providing some context to the average gamblers' outcomes.

                  I mean it is one hell of an impressive run for favorites. We are in the midst or a record setting, historic season. Just thought some people would like to know.

                  It is times like this when I have flights of fancy of one day being able to time the market. Seriously, imagine winning 77 Units in 4

                    months.

                    Keyboard stopped working last night.

                    But I was about to get a little philosophical and start babbling about Variance and is it truly the V word or not.

                      I agree, I'm up a good amount this year.
