Thursday - Pair of 5's Sir

[Pair of 5s Sir]

Let's look at yesterday's selections. BAL, the contrarian big doy play comes with a big price of +167. This gives us the split for the day and yielding a profit of 33.3 % on your money. Maybe PIT should take a lesson from the Birds on how to shut the door on an opponent.

Let's recap

PIT +167 (L)
BAL +167 (W)

+.67 units Risking 2 units, to win 3.34

Overall
19-17 52.78% +8.90 units

Favorites
6-2 75.00% +3.19 units

Dogs
13-15 +46.43% +5.71 units

I appreciate all that follow my thread. So far, it has been fun, enjoyable, and just a tad profitable. Would love to hear from the contrarios out there.

Beware O Contrare

Selection

Good early morning gentlemen, I am selecting very early today based on the fact I will be buried at a conference with no opportunity to get to a computer.

NYY -123 is the pick. After getting clobbered last night, and the previous loss, and with the Yankees woes of late, it is hard to place units on NYY. Being contrarian to the bone, NYY who usually gets pounded at the window is a slight favorite at home in the rival game of the season.

NYY -123

No more posts until this evening.

The 5's

yankees are favored
if they were a dog they'd be the play of the century
but with boston as the dog i'll try for the sweep

On the Yankees today with you. Was reluctant to take Yankees at -140, but line fell to -135, so I jumped. We'll see

Thank you NYY for the come from behind bottom of the ninth win. That makes up for the implosion play of the Marlins, a few nights ago.

NYY -123 (W)

Thanks to those who follow my thread, it's a whole lot more fun, to have your support.

Looking forward to tonight's card.

Radar Screen

The Cubbies get on the radar screen for this evening's pick. The bettors will have a hard time getting away from the dog in this game. Nevertheless, the contrarian indicators are on the Cubbies with line confirmation established. I will continue to review as gametime approaches.

I'm on Chicago RL so would be nice to see you on the ML at least. Nice hit so far today keep it up.

I am not a fan of the RL. Perhaps, I will be on the Cubbies, I will let you know.

Selection

Go get the Cubs -137. It will be hard for the chump money to stay away on PHI.

Cubs -137 is the contrarian play.

[fifawcs]

The Cubs are a good play. It isn't very often that you get them at that price. However, I think the opposite will happen to the line. People will see that they can get the cubs at this price and get on the line.

[Kingctb27]

Wow what a day!

[ryanXL977]

[fifawcs]

The Cubs are not that good. If they make it to the world series, fade them since they will lose to the AL contender.

Tonight was unique with two contrarian picks that were favorites. These favorite contrarian plays don't come up as often, but when they do, play them hard.

Let me shout out a thanks to my friend King and all the boys at Contrarian University, go buy some beer and pizza!

To my good friend TheLock, Dunkin Donuts is on me, next time.

One small step for man, One giant leap for the contrarian.
