    Hippo Picks Thread


    Already 9-1-1 in bases. Untied's wisdom has led me to just starting a new thread with a more acceptable title. Bets will mostly be RL and No score 1st Inning prop bets. Will do some series chases for these, luckily haven't had to yet with everything so far being close winners. You could say my bets range from .5U to 1.4U, always an odd amount but never a big % of my roll. Up almost 40% of my starting stack since baseball started with a few NBA wagers thrown in there. Hope the steam continues.


    Baseball: 12-1-1 (1*)
    NBA: 2-1

    Overall: 14-1-2 (1*)


    ​Because of the range of my bets with some of them being -130 and others being +170, going to just stick with a record because nothing on my end is a set unit.

    * Indicates number of losses that were chased and won thus making the # of losses an eventual +. As of 4/6/13 only one loss has overall cost me $.

      Going real small, literally just a few bucks on No score 1st in the Bos/Tor matchup this afternoon. Considering it's a +100 line there's a good chance this one doesn't come through.

          First chase is doubling my bet No score 1st inning of the A's/Astros. Had it last night and Crisp made sure it was a quick loss. With Norris pitching at home where he's fukking Cy Young and the punchless Astros lineup figured the juice on this one would be in the -150 to -160 area, at -120 this looks like a steal. Astros won't score so we're relying on Norris, at home, to have a quick 1st inning which I think happens 9 times out of 10.

                      Only that Taker takes it down on Sunday, but that's just a given. He did want to send out his personal thanks for your help with getting tt off the site, he didn't like him going around talking like he knows him like we do.

                          I won't be playing it but I think I'll be kicking myself later. U8 in As/Astros looks real good. A's wont have themselves another 7 run inning and the Astros probably won't put up more than 3 maybe 4 runs themselves. Norris at + $ at home against Colon looks too easy as well. Hughes at +172 and Hanson at +110 looks like it's worth a gander as well. If Astros can put up runs on Harrison, you'd think the Angels could do it.

                          In fact I'm going to go ahead and make a play on Angels +110. You don't want to lose the first two games of the series and have to rely on beating Darvish to stave off the sweep, ripe spot for an Angels win here.

                                        Good to see it. Like I said you're risking it on Norris to get through the first inning. We know the Astros won't score

                                            That's 3-0 on the day. My one and only MLB loss was chased and won on the next bet. On fire. Will see if it continues.

                                              When you're hot you're hot. Almost took a big wager on Louisville at huge - odds, so this works out much better.

                                                  Lot of action looks good tomorrow afternoon. Sadly I've forced myself into sticking with a game plan, with no availability to chase a loss the rest of the series I'm trying to not play anything tomorrow and wait for the next series to start on Monday. That being said there are a lot of action I'd personally be looking at here:

                                                  Harrell pitching at home trying to avoid the sweep at +150. He looked like a major league pitcher the first time up, think he might look better than Norris did tonight.

                                                  No Score 1st inning of several games tomorrow - Rays/Indians, Royals/Phils and Angels/Rangers

                                                  Getting Weaver at +$, even on the road against "one out from perfection" Darvish is worth a look. Angels are simply the much better team

                                                  Sabathia could throw 7 shutout innings tomorrow, at +173 that is a sick number. Verlander won't win every game this year....

                                                  If the White Sox didn't beat up Felix this afternoon I'd scratch my game plan and take Sale on the RL tomorrow. Maybe it's just me but the price of Sale at home (-163) should not be comparable to Anderson (-155) pitching on the road.

                                                  Might talk myself into one or more of the prop bets when I wake up tomorrow. Will see how it goes.

                                                          Just 10 minutes to game time but went ahead and went super small on No score 1st Tigers/Yanks. I think Sabathia is on his game today and will get through a couple of no run innings to start off. Same to be said for Verlander.

                                                            I switched over to 5dimes recently and just got verified. Don't want to have a losing day and not cash out what I'm expecting to tomorrow. Money management has raped me every time I re-up at a book, trying real hard this time to stick with a plan.

I have a concern for the 3 people who follow this thread (hopefully with all the winning it increases) I'm up over 55% of my starting roll in under a week betting no more than 2% of my starting stack except for two instances (Verlander ML first game of season and Pacers Live 1Q ML against the Clips) how do I handle increasing my wagers in accordance to the fact that at the moment I simply can't lose? Like i mentioned earlier, MM always killed me so I don't want to start doubling my bets or whatnot and hit a streak and lose back everything. Tips or advice?
