    Wow. What a horrible way to lose mariners RL
    1 run game 8th inning 2 outs nobody on base. Munoz pitching (who throws a 100 mph and has a 2.50 Era this year). Pena works a walk, they walk alvarez and then bregman gets a 2 out hit

    9th inning, mariners get a walk then a rocket line out which becomes a double play, then rodriguez kills a ball for a double...a ball that's easily a homerun if he just launches it a big higher angle...then ty France Ks

    Unf**king real

      I got a 4 team parlay. 1500 to win 23K


      That horrible beat is going to cost me. The inning was 2 outs nobody on base against one of the best relievers in mlb. The odds of a run there is like 5%

          We know… we know. So close yet so far always. The odds may be 5% but you suck at this. Please start posting all these fades.

            You win and you lose there’s no such thing as a bad beat because they all equal out in the long term

                      This wasn't just your first mistake, it was the biggest mistake you made.
                      Once upon time, years ago, when I first got into this sports wagering thing, I learned this from a long time indie bookie, he said to me "Kid, stay away from parlays and teasers, anytime you're depending on multiple teams winning to cash one particular payout, you're just begging for trouble"

                      In your case you needed four teams to win.
                      I've lost single wagers due to an apparent foul ball slice back and hit the foul pole for a walk off game winning tater, a cheaper 322 root homerun you'll never see hit again.

                      I once lost a couple of hundred dollar under 8.5 total bet like this.
                      The game was 5-2, bottom of the ninth, men on first and second, and there was one out.
                      The Braves, the road team brought in a sinker ball relief specialist designed to do just one thing, that being to entice the batter to hit into a ground ball, double play which would end the game at 5-2.

                      Sure as shit, the manager, the pitcher and myself got just what they wanted, a routine ground ball.
                      The Reds SS, who was playing two steps towards the second base bag was right there in position the field that chopper, step on second, could have read the NY Times before throwing over to first to end the game, you know what happens next, don't you?

                      Wait for it, wait for it. Yep, the ball hits the motherfucking second base bag, ricochets into left field, now, instead of game over, and your pal Nasher is buying rounds for the house, the lead runner scores to make the score 5-3, the game situation is still one out, runners on first and third, the next batter hits a deep fly to center, caught, but the runner on third scores on the sacrifice fly, 5+4=9, 9>8.5, and the only thing that ticket is good for now is on the bottom of a bid cage.

                      I can cite a dozen more bad beat stories, and if that can happen in just a single game, it sure as shit (if shit can be sure) can happen al least once in any of the four games you need to win, and it did.

                      No matter how juicy the potential payout, stay away from those.

                      Having said all that, ask yourself this, how much money would you have won if you bet those four games as standalone wagers on four different tickets?

                      I can tell you how much you lost by not betting it that way?
                      1500 dead presidents, that' how much you lost.

                      There's a reason why the books allow teasers, pleasers, and parlays.
                      There's a reason why the books allow you to buy a half a point off of key numbers for insane added juice.
                      If you guessed because it gives the house a bigger edge, you'd be correct and Johnny Olsen will tell you all about the valuable prizes you just won.

                      K.I.S.S

                        I think the worst part was that clown who got struck out to end the game. Missed every pitch by a foot and the last one by five feet.

                            That double play was game changing because if it didn't happen, with the Julio Rodriguez double that would of brought in 2 runs. But when the game changed was in the bottom of the 6th. 2 outs. I think it was Frazier trying to do too much and cutting off Rodriguez in center field and having that ball drop. I was on Seattle and as soon as I saw that, I knew a homerun was coming.

                                          The correct would be 12 points.

                                                I did not know this Bill, thanks for that piece of information.
                                                I just made note of that.
                                                Thanks again.

                                                  That's the beauty about baseball. You could be up 6 runs in the 9th with 2 outs but then the batter is walked, next batter hits, homerun and then the game gets tense.

                                                    Yet baseball matches can be decided in the sixth due to a rain shower. Mind boggling

                                                        Actually playoff MLB betting is alot of luck. Never mind my last post. MLB betting is a long term thing and now it comes down to men on 2nd/3rd with 2 outs in a 1 run game. Hitter makes 90 MPH contact and the LFer gets it. He hits it 85 MPH and it bloops in. Umps always have to involve themselves too with a bunch of bs calls. Mariner yesterday took 6 balls in a row before he got the walk. None were even close? Thats why I don't bet on MLB playoffs that often.

                                                          I wish the games that I put money on the Mariners, would of been rained out. The Mariners have cost me about $3,400 this season., not that much but that's close to 2 months rent. 4 of those games have been with Luis Castillo on the mound. What I have noticed is that every time the Mariners scored. Castillo would give the runs back. September 7th. Castillo is cruising, Mariners give him 4 runs in the bottom of the 3rd. The very next inning him gives the White Soxs 2 back, with 2 outs, a call is challenged and Abreu is safe at first. Next batter Jimenez knocks it out the park. Then in the 6th allows 4 more runs and Castillo is smiling on the mound. I'm like what the f. Mariners lose 6-9. I end up losing $600. I lost some more money on them yesterday. Same thing 2 outs. Frazier tried to do too much. Next batter Alvarez knocks it out the park.

                                                            Never thought that about comparing baseball with poker. You're right. If even if you play your cards right, sometimes you still don't win.

                                                            With Bregman on with 2 runners on base. I think he would of still got a hit. Baseball is weird most of the time.

                                                                  The 2014-15 run was designed and put together by GM Dayton Moore back in 2011 who did it homegrown developing Perez, Hosmer. Alex Gordon, and Moose through AAA Omaha. Then with a next to nothing budget traded Zack Greinke to the Brewers for SP Jake Odorizzi, SS Escobar, and CF Lorenzo Cain.

                                                                  Immediately flipped Odorizzi to Tampa for Big Game James Shields and Wade Davis.

                                                                  That's how you build a championship with next to nothing to spend
                                                                  Bring up the five kids from the minors, trade for the CF and the closer, sign RF Rios and DH Morales for very short money.

                                                                  Now, the future, Moore just got shit canned because he was following his own blueprint again, and that blew up and failed.
                                                                  Pro sports is totally what have you done for me lately, Moore ten years ago was considered a magician, now a shit bum.
                                                                  Funny how that works out.

                                                                  Mu guy was Whit Merrifield, but I'm OK with the trade.
                                                                  He's not young anymore, he'll be like 36 if the new rebuild pays off, we got a nice return, so OK.
                                                                  KC is committed to Sal Perez as the face of the franchise. It's Whit or Perez, they moved on from Merrifield.

                                                                  It's imperative the ownership group keep Mondesi and Witt and build around them and captain Sal Perez.
                                                                  We have a shit load of power sticks too, what KC can't seem to get right is pitching, and they had best get that right this time, or this whole rebuild goes down the toilet again.

                                                                  Yeah, I almost cried when Hosmer moved on, he was my guy, along with Moose who was the ultimate dirt dog, he went to the Reds, and Mr. Gold Glove Alex Gordon retired, and they gave A-Gor a big night thank you celebration at the K for all he did.

                                                                  One of the most classiest, and FUN teams I ever saw, that 2015 KC team.
                                                                  KC fans are also one of the most respectful of all the fan bases.
                                                                  If you give the opposition undue shit when at the game, the fans at the K will. we'll take care of it.
                                                                  You just don't do that.

Alex Gordon, and Moose through AAA Omaha. Then with a next to nothing budget traded Zack Greinke to the Brewers for SP Jake Odorizzi, SS Escobar, and CF Lorenzo Cain.

                                                                      Immediately flipped Odorizzi to Tampa for Big Game James Shields and Wade Davis.

                                                                      That's how you build a championship with next to nothing to spend
                                                                      Bring up the five kids from the minors, trade for the CF and the closer, sign RF Rios and DH Morales for very short money.

                                                                      Now, the future, Moore just got shit canned because he was following his own blueprint again, and that blew up and failed.
                                                                      Pro sports is totally what have you done for me lately, Moore ten years ago was considered a magician, now a shit bum.
                                                                      Funny how that works out.

                                                                      Mu guy was Whit Merrifield, but I'm OK with the trade.
                                                                      He's not young anymore, he'll be like 36 if the new rebuild pays off, we got a nice return, so OK.
                                                                      KC is committed to Sal Perez as the face of the franchise. It's Whit or Perez, they moved on from Merrifield.

                                                                      It's imperative the ownership group keep Mondesi and Witt and build around them and captain Sal Perez.
                                                                      We have a shit load of power sticks too, what KC can't seem to get right is pitching, and they had best get that right this time, or this whole rebuild goes down the toilet again.

                                                                      Yeah, I almost cried when Hosmer moved on, he was my guy, along with Moose who was the ultimate dirt dog, he went to the Reds, and Mr. Gold Glove Alex Gordon retired, and they gave A-Gor a big night thank you celebration at the K for all he did.

                                                                      One of the most classiest, and FUN teams I ever saw, that 2015 KC team.
                                                                      KC fans are also one of the most respectful of all the fan bases.
                                                                      If you give the opposition undue shit when at the game, the fans at the K will. we'll take care of it.
                                                                      You just don't do that.
                                                                      Forgot about Moose. That was a fun team, small ball and a whole lot of speed. I expected a big year from Bubic this season, he did okay. The guy I'm worried about Keller, seems he's falling off, hopefully he rebounds. It's crazy how good Merrifield developed. What are your expectations for next season?
