the RL makes no sense at all. Why is it only -170?

Seattle is -215 on the RL!!!! What, are they much more likely to lose by a run than the Cubs? They are on the road, which makes a difference...

I'll put a unit on the RL.

[ryanXL977]

you guys are willing to lay -170 to buy a run
why dont you just take the cubs to win?
explain this to me

[yisman]

low-scoring game. Insurance.

[ryanXL977]

but you are laying -170
i mean, wouldnt you rather have cubs or milw at even than laying -170 on a game
at -170, you can find a heckuva a lot better games than this one

dodgers tonite, phils, etc

dont lay for a run people, its not the way to go

[yisman]

the reason it's good advice is because some books (like bodog) have extra vig on RLs as opposed to MLs.

Close to gametime, bodog is -105/-105 on MLs and -110/-110 on RLs.

[ryanXL977]

well i wish everyone luck, to me, its smart to guess a side rather than laying -170 vs the big beast named CC

but then again, milw sucks ass

[ryanXL977]

see
no need to take cubs+1.5
may as well not lay such huge vig for a run
brewers ****ing suck
suck suck suck

the big beast got roasted!

[ryanXL977]

yes he did, and i said, take milw or cubs, dont watse -170 for a run, makes no sense

[Robust]

the overs were crap and the astros choked.. so long parlay!

but the cubs got it for me!!!

finally a win this week!!

a bit over 6 units!!
