THE BRICKYARD--5mike5

[5mike5]

Like you say mike most of the races we all fancy the same drivers

Although some like other longshots as for getting the prices it depends where we all live

Most on here from the states I'm from London opti and mat from Australia so we all bet at different times and sometimes we all can't get the best odds

yeah i mean its a fact imo..

but who cares, as long as we all keep killing them rest of the year all matters really.

[5mike5]

same thing with even nationwide today

and they have been up over 24 hours

make my 2 plays on BK and Logano to win, refresh to check, and both immediatley moved...im sure there are a few players they keep track of the bets on

[shaunovery]

A book it always going to keep a check on winning players especially if they bet 1k+

Pinnacle say they don't but they don't cover nascar

[5mike5]

i mean they have to really

and if players are winning big constantly, in a sub-sport especially like racing, of course they will look at their wagers if they hit openers

would be bad business if they didnt

[shaunovery]

I suppose they have 2 choices limit your stakes or cut the odds at least normally you can bet what you feel nesscary before they cut the odds

[Optional]

Try making some $200 bets instead of $250 and see if the price jumps, or jumps as much?

It seems like they have a safety system there to me, so they dont have to watch early markets too close. I think any max bet moves the price instantly, until they reassess it manually.

Often see H2Hs jump wildly, only to settle back at or near original odds within half an hour.

The price moves after 1 bet have appeared to be larger than we have been used to before though. Could be to stop people here tailing possibly I'm thinking.

[5mike5]

basically all my bets for racing weekend are made now

all i have left is 1 more driver ton win brickyard, and MAYBE a big longshot for nationwide

even the bets i dont max do it as well...just like bowyer, i did not bet 250 on him and it jumped 6 spots as soon as i finalized...becuase i may use him as cover bet....if not ill just add later....i dont always put max as my 1st bet remember....i may bet same driver 5 times throught the week...but i ALWAYS max favorites unless i have some wierd feeling it may get better later

heres my problem though, it happens as soon as i hit finalize...so if i only bet 100-200 so when it changes, i just screwed myself out of alot of money when it drops ...see what im saying?

[5mike5]

H2H is very different.....now i do max those out anytime i bet them...several times immediatley back to back and later too in the week if i really like...but doesnt matter who mas H2H bets they will definatley move...its just 50/50 so thats why thos do that

and same thing if u bet other way, it comes right back down

[Optional]

Well that blows that theory then!

[5mike5]

...

[5mike5]

also started open parlay (2-slot) and if 1st play wins i will play nascar H2H to try and win it this weekend

no idea why just bored .....just risking 150

1. MATT KEMP over Holliday in total bases (-120)
2. OPEN

[5mike5]

Either Martin or Harvick IMO.

But hey, I'm still learning here, so pay me no mind.

[5mike5]

thanks dad

i dont play groups but 1-2 times a year myself

harvick is very good at indy, but for some reason that car hasnt had a lick of speed this year....strange after last few years

[Optional]

I'd be looking at that as between Martin/Harvick/Keselowski.

I do like Marks chances for a top 5

yes i agree....55 car been top 5 alot, and mark is very very solid at indy on top if that usually

harvick hasnt had fast car all year, and u need it at indy....think its between he and BK, and at +335 i like it

pretty sure i may bet that Group B and take mark

[5mike5]

i went ahead and bet this

Mark Martin (+335) to win GROUP B

fun play to pull for during the race anyways

[Optional]

Anyone do well on these group bets?

I hardly ever pull them off.

[5mike5]

ive only bet them 2 times before

1 win, 1 lose

but its usually because i really dont like any of them...

just any xtra play for me, and i like this 1

What I do with group bets is wager a unit on 3 of the 5 in a group. This generally works out to better than even money. Good play if there are one or two drivers you consider fade material.

[onlooker]

Leans:

Tony Stewart
Jeff Gordon
Kevin Harvick
Mark Martin
JP Montoya

i dont think its worth the risk the way prices usually are to take 3/5 on the group

wouldnt make much at all that way, but if u make moey u are wanting i say go 4 it

we all like different betting options

[5mike5]

going to be a long 2 day wait to get some racing action going this week

but its CLOSE!!!

[Reno Paul]

Added Jimmie Johnson +675.......Didn't take the opening at +750, but after I found out that he is driving the same chassis that he dominated at Dover with, I had to take him.

[5mike5]

not that bad +775 to +675, especially if he gets lower, which i think he definatley will

i think u got on at good time, cause hes went lower even today started at +700

[Reno Paul]

Just took Kasey Kahne -140 over Ryan Newman in qualifying.
