Nice nice nice NC. Congrats! Be careful though. Once you get a taste of a big money play, it's hard to go back. At least it is for me!
Keep it up.

Thanks JB. I usually don't hit these -- at least not the posted ones -- so I don't see another one in the foreseeable future.

Cueto and the Reds a small dog against Fiers and Milwaukee the only game that stands out to me..

Brew Crew worth of a decent sized play?

You've got to be kidding me. 30 unit play, lol. Your record looks a bit "better" all of sudden, hu? Can't wait for the next 20+ unit play, then you're in the black again.

I guess I don't understand what you're getting at. I've lost multiple posted 20 unit plays in the last calendar year, including two in this very thread -- did you comment on those when they crashed and burned? Did those make my record look "better"? My plays are $20 per unit; it's not like I had thousands of dollars on this game. It was a big play respective of my overall bankroll, but I didn't bet beyond my means. I'd like to know what your issue is here.

Not sure. Hate betting against Cueto, and in favor of that awful Milwaukee pen on back to back nights.

I don't fade or tail, so I couldn't care less, but it seemed like you agressively tried to get some of the losses back after almost hitting the -40u mark. Not sure whether this would have been a 30u play if you weren't down by 30+ units, that pretty much sums it up.

Again, I have made 20+ unit plays when I wasn't down big -- including two in this thread alone. This has nothing to do with "chasing." I would've made a large play in this spot regardless, but thanks for showing so much concern despite not caring.

BAL TT over 4 -120 (1.2U to win 1)

Feeling Philly and Arizona tonight.

Maybe Boston as well, though backing a struggling lefty against the Rangers probably isn't a good idea.

HOU TT over 3.5 -105 (1.05U to win 1)
HOU +1.5 +105 (1U to win 1.05)

You seem worthless to this fourm. Who cares how much he bets, why do you get off on dogging people?

Because he's lonely, insecure, and both a points and money degenerate stiff. He's just a sad troll on a gambling forum -- his lot in life.

DET +103 (1U to win 1.03)
LAA -133 (1.33U to win 1)

ARI +115 (1U to win 1.15)

Ralphie1412 · 08-07-12, 05:43 PM

You got tons of sharp value from the sharp shops. Is anyone getting steamed on a closer or is the sharp value on your side?

Thats how you sound

As opposed to how you sound? Loser.

I liked the over in the Brewers/Reds game.

I also liked the Giants at +190 even though I'm a huge Cardinals fan. Lynn -210??? Get real. I know Zito sucks but come on.

I promised I would not gamble on sports again until football season but I just learned Brock is on the opposite side of both of my leans....what to do, what to do.

I'm really tempted to take the SF ML BigD.

On at +190 5Dimes.

Some lines are just too big to ignore, even if it's just a small play.

I just hate backing Zito in any way, shape or form. But BigD is right -- Lynn over -200 against the NL West leaders is ridiculous.

PHI FF -142 (1.42U to win 1)

Ralphie1412 · 08-07-12, 06:08 PM

I guess its easy to bet every game at 20 bucks a pop.

It's really sad that you've resorted to this. Shows how truly desperate you are and how much material you lack.

You try to be the board's resident badass, and this is what you come up with.

Do you need a friend? Call me.

Adding a unit to Miami at +143.

Ya I want a friend who is poor and spends 23 hours a day online.

Talked to Mr. Windy City lately Ralph?

It's OK -- you can let down your guard and be honest. We all know.

Where did you get the impression that I was poor?

Adding a half a unit to Houston +178.

Already 3-0 Giants. LOL.
