Tuesday Plays??? Let’s Hear From Some Losers

**Hot Jerry** · 08-20-19, 08:12 AM

Philadelphia , Atlanta , TB in MLB today !!

**KVB** · 08-20-19, 12:16 PM

DET, OAK, and TOR are all on the Contrarian RL Fund radar.

Anyone paying any attention knows we are hoping for more opportunity in that Fund as we believe we are turning a market corner for the rest of this year and then some. In fact, after being down -10.33 units, I've increased my stake and thus my units in the Fund, hitting a +182 for the increased unit.

This is likely to be effective at least through this year.

JJgold, How do I post a spread sheet on my thread like you have it?

**JIBBBY** · 08-20-19, 12:57 PM

Twins in a rebound game at home. Can't see them losing to the Sox back to back.. Should hit.. Even like the -1.5 at even odds.

Bouncing between the picks thread and this one here.

PIT on the Contrarian Fund radar again.

Just got a bad feeling about these guys and while we normally see some give and take in the marketplace between teams, sometimes noticeably after extreme results, Pit seems like a literal pitfall here.

If it triggers it triggers, and it might trigger.

**shocka1212** · 08-20-19, 01:06 PM

Twins.

**KVB** · 08-20-19, 01:12 PM

CHW is on the Contrarian Fund radar but not because it thinks it's the spot for the win, but more because if the play this game 3 times, CHW wins more than once, but not twice.

There is value there.

Don't like Philly, it's BOS or pass.

Pitt and the UNDER both could trigger in the Contrarian Fund.

Detroit +1.5 will very likely trigger in the RL Fund.

Why are all the winners here?

Much rather play the ff -.5 and swallow a little juice, I just don’t like the idea of trusting minny pen combined w being at home where I’m far less inclined to lay the 1.5.

I like the ff under in that game.

**2daBank** · 08-20-19, 05:22 PM

Pretty confident cards take 2 in this series so while not thrilled trusting wacha he was good his last start and the price right to chase 2marro if they lose this one.

**KVB** · 08-20-19, 05:24 PM

Fuk, added PIT to the Fund..

They can suck a golf through a garden hose. That's how much they suck.

Going to the well again. Again, PIT and the UNDER very decent contrarian plays...

I wonder if she can do the same...

**JIBBBY** · 08-20-19, 07:02 PM

^^ Me too KVB.. Grind is good if you win over time consistently. Embrace it!!! Keep it up bud!!!

You chase or load up chances are you will get bank rolled in this sports gambling game we play..

Dodgers with Kershaw back at home look like a lock to me after 2 days off and coming off losses in Atlanta. Gotta pay to play with these odds though tonight in the late game..

A few mistakes between both Funds and everything is even.

Here's the RL Fund chart, we see a lot more of a chance for the chart to rise, than fall...

Could I be underestimating the effects of the juiced ball on the favorites winning, and by how much?

Could that be making a difference with this particular set of 90 runline plays?

Originally posted by KVB

...Now the extra runs do favor the favorites, in fact, a place where LT is negative, but it would be very, very difficult for LT to move forward business wise with his method if forced to speculate on just what the adjustment would be moving forward in the season.

Maybe there's just not enough data, maybe there are just too many assumptions to make and few ways to test them to make a decision to invest...

Will be interesting to see...
