    MLB playoff betting stategy?
    Straight Martingale on +$ ML teams?

    Is MLB playoffs a viable answer as to when this system could really work if you're handed a 90 win team at +130-160 every night?

    In Vegas 10.13-10.17 to give it a shot at $500 units.

    System frowned upon in coin toss circumstances, but MLB playoffs are coin tosses with a +130...

    Thoughts by pros?

    3 game sweep in the first round is hardly difficult. There's been plenty in the best of 7s the last few seasons also from memory.

    Assumed you were talking series martingale, you mean take the dog every game no matter the series?

      I would only ride the same team in a series if it was up 3-1, then double till they closed out.

      In taking the dog I'd look to diversify in leagues and teams, and in theory a 3 game sweep would involve the dog winning one game. Even the Cubs won't be road favorites in LA when the time comes.

                      Around -3% ROI on both ML and RL.

                        Great stat, with a staggered betting system of any scheme that -3% could be flipped exponentially you'd think in playoffs with quality teams at +$$

                          Martingale on underdogs. It's cheaper than martingale on chalk.
