    I Never Ever Do This But...
    All,

    I have broken my #1 rule in this sports betting activity. My # 1 rule is NEVER, EVER make a sucker bet like a parlay or teaser.

    My thoughts are these are mathematically impossible to beat the book in the long run, so take that edge away from the book.

    Well this week has been a struggle. After having a great winning June & 75% of July, I have hit the tank the past two weeks.

    Now, I will live another day because I do manage bankroll well but I did something stupid today.

    As I write this, this has a legit shot of cashing, but it probably wont.

    Moral of this story, NEVER do this.

          Bases jammed for Baltimore with 1 ****ing out and they can't push a run accross.

          Need some runs Baltimore!

            Giants are going to score here.

            Still a long way to go, but at 30-1 I am still in this.

                I have a gut feeling that this "stupid" parlay is going to come to Baltimore scoring some runs.

                Come on ***********!

                  At least Felix is out of the game, hopefully they can put some up, although they had 8 hits through 5 just needed those clutch hits

                        I've never had two teams from same city help cash in a parley, I think I overlooked that fact when I picked Mets.
                        And I dont think parleys are sucker bets, you get odds for all of your picks just like you do for a single pick, its really in the eye of the beholder.

                          Come on Baltimore, you need to put up a 5 spot this inning for me to have a chance.

                                Orioles have 10 Freaking hits and only 3 runs!

                                This game should have sailed over 7.5

                                  sry but Hernandez v Guthrie doesnt exactly read like a slug fest to me. Besides Seattle came off a high scoring series with Texas, they were bound to settle down again.

                                    Really easy to say after game is 90% complete.

                                    Anyhow, Orioles hav 13 hits, they should have scored 5-6 runs on this alone.

                                        I'm not talking after the fact here, my pre game thought was/and is that this would be UNDER. Even though both teams are out of contention, pitchers never miss a chance to showcase and BALT alone is not an offense powerhouse, and as I said Seattle put up all those runs you need in Texas.

                                              Probably should have gone overlike vsdspread said. 23 runners left on base. That's a tough one to swallow. I didn't watch the game personally. Sounds like there were runners on base all night. Would have been nice if BAL could have pushed a few more runs accross the plate for you.

                                              You'll get them next time...
