    two things:
    1) it may help people get off the opposing teams ML and
    2) you can still win money picking winners (if you manage you're money right)

    yesterday i hit a $5 five-team parlay and won $40. I know it isn't much but that's because i don't play much for basketball. but the point is, i picked 6 winners today without doing an ounce of capping. strictly system plays. it seems like it may be helpful.

    Keep doing your thing Ackem and thanks for sharing! One suggestion that may help you and all who choose to follow: As you post the games that fit the system under the ML, perhaps you could put the current price next to it. Similar to what you're already doing with the ATS games. Just put Pacific -300 or NMSU -180 (those aren't actually the lines of course).

    This way, when you do the record, you or whoever will always be able to go back and calculate whether it's profitable playing them SU or not.

    G/L bro!

    You got it. Probably should have been doing that from the start. Thanks for the support.

    you have to show units wagered to see if this system is profitable.

    yeah you really gotta see how much you're giving because if a -800 ML loses, you've got a lot of ground to cover to make up that loss, so you could be 7-1 and have lost money still.

    i'll be honest with you i have a small bank roll. i hit a $10.91 6 teamer for $446 just after the nba all star break and and since then i just wanted to make sure i didn't dip below $300 until NCAAF season. I've been putting $5 on each game. From now on, i will show "$5 to win __" so that you can track everything as well.

    I don't think it has a prayer of working in MLB. I don't know what the exact numbers are for recent seasons, but baseball underdogs win 40-45 percent of all games, don't they? I can't believe you'd find 90% of money on a ML side unless the Nationals are facing Sabathia at Yankee Stadium.

    blackbeSSt,
    I know know if it works elsewhere. i really only started tracking he system on the 18th. there is a good chance this system has just been getting lucky and maybe it will crash and burn. it's still a very young system. my only advice to you would be to try tracking it once bases start and see how it does. if it does well, then you may as well start playing it. but you know want to put money on any system that doesn't have some sort of foundation yet.
