Theey say two heads are better than one, and i'm lost on this prop, I think the only way to decide on a pick here, is a rock paper scissors off against the next willing participant.

Failed to make the final pick of the month, thus blowing his chance at the hundred grand. With a win, he would've won the tiebreaker.

20 for March, and we had 18 for April

taylor and Sammy I think are banned at the moment, so that takes off two.

**lordswing** · 08-01-10, 03:04 PM

Murray is a huge favorite, and of course it'd be on the first day of SftC

**losturmarbles** · 08-01-10, 03:17 PM

I'm betting Querrey and picking Murray.

i've thought about doing that on more than one occasion, especially with a bigger streak, but for different reasons i suppose (win/win if you're the optimistic type)

good luck with that, i'll be rooting for querrey for ya

**yisman** · 08-01-10, 04:08 PM

it just doesn't make sense for them to put it straight up. If they wanted it on SftC because ESPN has the rights, then why not total games like some of the other props?

There's so much inconsistency.

**OmgUrMom** · 08-01-10, 04:15 PM

anyone care if i still join? 0 streak at the moment (0-2 for today lol, unless rangers make a comeback)

**MexicanStallion** · 08-01-10, 04:29 PM

You can join. Just join the link again. As long as you don't have a Winning Streak of 3 then I don't think anybody would have a problem. I think that is the best cut off point to get late joiners as well.

**yisman** · 08-01-10, 04:29 PM

fine with me

Querrey wins.

This would've taken down like 90% of the leaderboard (well, it did anyway, but the biggest streaks are two) had it happened later in the month.

**yisman** · 08-01-10, 07:23 PM

I picked H/BB/K, Furcal takes a 1-2 right down the middle, and of course Joe West calls it a ball.

Furcal then flies out.

**OmgUrMom** · 08-01-10, 07:25 PM

H/BB/K pickers got ripped off there, that was definetely a strike. I got lucky and took AOR tho.

**OmgUrMom** · 08-01-10, 07:28 PM

going with NO HR between the 3rd and 6th. Neither starter gives up a large amount of hr balls and neither team hits them too well either. Seems like a decent bet and definetely worth taking with only a W1

**mikejamm** · 08-01-10, 07:34 PM

Come on good people get in on this! Still time to join! Steak of 3 or less is cool with me too, maybe we could set August 3rd as the cut off date?

I wish Joe West had told me he was picking AOR!

**OmgUrMom** · 08-01-10, 08:43 PM

4 more outs to win the hr prop

(this will probably jinx it)

**OmgUrMom** · 08-01-10, 09:23 PM

2 outs for far in the 8th. I jumped on the 8th inning no runs prop

**lordswing** · 08-01-10, 10:06 PM

too bad the dodgers/giants couldn't score a run, i was on a pretty good losing streak (L4)

**OmgUrMom** · 08-01-10, 10:06 PM

wee hit a good 3 game win streak to end the day

**losturmarbles** · 08-02-10, 05:55 PM

i like braves and twins, but I'm at 0, so I'll go with the jose reyes prop

413 PA
108 H
22 BB
46 SO

108+22+46 = 176
176/413 = .426 = 42.6%

Then I guess you should weigh that against the opposing pitcher, Hudson, but I didn't bother.

AOR on the prop.

**yisman** · 08-02-10, 06:01 PM

I reviewed the stats and Accuscore's projection, and I'm risking my W3 on AOR.

Reckless, but this one has an edge if you look at Hudson, Reyes, and then their matchups.

**yisman** · 08-02-10, 06:23 PM

I've had really really bad luck with the ESPN in game props over the last two months.

**losturmarbles** · 08-02-10, 06:39 PM

lol oops.

yeah I hate the H, BB, or SO props.

Maybe we should start looking at the pitcher's stats for ground outs, pop outs, fly outs then weigh it against the batter's hitting, walking, and SO average all compared to the average batter.

too much work when you're not betting any real money on it.

**losturmarbles** · 08-02-10, 06:42 PM

I'm taking the cubs and calling it a night.

**yisman** · 08-02-10, 08:46 PM

brain freeze on not picking the Braves straight up. I was on W3, so there was no need to take props, and I really did like Atlanta tonight.

**yisman** · 08-02-10, 08:57 PM

0/3 on these stupid in game props

At least I can make another pick. Dodgers.

**lordswing** · 08-03-10, 02:35 AM

since i screwed up horribly last time, checking to make sure i have this right

rapid wien -1.5/-2 -110
beroe stara zagora +1.5/+2 -106

think of it as -1.75/+1.75? So go with Beroe W/D/-1 right?

**yisman** · 08-03-10, 10:48 AM

it means rapid would be favored on the -1.5 line

note how they aren't offering -1.5

they're offering -1.5/-2

if the standard spread is higher than the one you're picking, that means rapid -1.5 isn't being offered because the line would be more slanted, and the closest to even line they could find is -1.5/-2

I don't know what your post means.

**yisman** · 08-03-10, 01:32 PM

Anderlecht was -2/-2.5, and the SftC was at 1.5, but somehow New Saints went from 53% at about 2 PM to closing at over 63%.

**OmgUrMom** · 08-03-10, 01:53 PM

anderlecht was a pretty good play, passed on it and figured i'd just go with one game today since the atlanta dream is favored huge.

Both soccer games should of been picked for the 2 goals or more team altho like you pointed out yisman some people are reallly stupid on there. It seems people always think its smart to go with extra chooses (lose by 1 goal, draw, win).

**lordswing** · 08-03-10, 05:34 PM

thanks yis, i still didn't get it, but your post cleared it up for me

and wow at dream-6, who will of course get destroyed by 20 since i'll be on them
