    Only problem with it is there are so many games and it really takes a lot of time
    Since baseball has changed so much.....I make most of my money during the College Football Season.....but I don't really look at the big games like FSU/FLD, MICH./OHIO ST, or TV games. I look games like W.MICH/ KENT ST, AKRON/MEMPHIS,TULSA/ E.CARO,ect......you get the point......And it is great action !

                    It's not because people win
                    This^^^ mlb is nowhere near as popular betting wise as basketball and football so yea, id imagine books dont make much money around this time

I can, lol. Numbers are getting to a point where it's getting real hard to find value and if I do, I need to jump n real early. Waiting is not good.
                          Trust me

                          I'm not trying to be rude

                          But books aren't losing money on baseball.

                          Trust me I practically live in these vegas books .

                          Most of these dudes are betting 8 team MLB parlays for $10 to win 500.

                          but believe me when I tell you books aren't down or hoping baseball ends.

                            FWIW....if you don't like the lines for a particular play, don't play it...this has been this way in Baseball for years. As the season gets into July the linesmakers get tight on the betting lines.

                            They are counting on the "people are gonna bet anyway" theory. This time of year I will lean towards totals & dogs.

                            Good luck!!

                                  Good comment, thank you. That is what I've done when I don't like the board. But it gets to a point where it's not worth my time going through every game and then find 5 plays a week.

                                    Let me break this down for you fukkin idiots that don't have a clue and are viewing this thread:


                                    Rangefinder is saying OMG i had so much value earlier this year, i was just beating the books ragged...now they tightened up and number are sharp so i cant even bet my solid plays



                                    And like I said....he is the same time of guy to say OMG who else is riding this winning streak with me on the cubs (after cubs win 11 in a row)


                                    both threads are completely useless

                                      I love this shit man

                                      WNBA all star game on

                                      2nd half over and full game over no defense being played at all it's basically s 3 point shooting contest.

                                      Cubs live in game

                                      And UFC coming on tonight with weidman as an underdog

                                          Let me break this down for you fukkin idiots that don't have a clue and are viewing this thread:


                                          Rangefinder is saying OMG i had so much value earlier this year, i was just beating the books ragged...now they tightened up and number are sharp so i cant even bet my solid plays



                                          And like I said....he is the same time of guy to say OMG who else is riding this winning streak with me on the cubs (after cubs win 11 in a row)


                                          both threads are completely useless
                                          Oh is that what he's saying. I took it as he's saying the books are losing money on baseball. Which is anything but the case. If he's complaining about lines getting sharper that's nothing new

                                              Let me break it down truthfully for you all. Rudy is a complete idiot!! Do not listen to a thing he says or types. He will lead you down a long dark path called losing. I never bet the Cubs winning streak for one, so that must have been one of his many drug induced hallucinations. Two, I don't even know why he wants to screw with me when I've not done anything to the guy. He's a miserable human being, aren't you, Rudy?

                                                    you called me rude

                                                    then said you don't know anything

                                                          No doubt he is fat, but he's a gamer and finds ways to win. I also think he hasn't reached his peak yet. He's only what like 25/26? Still a ton of room for growth as a fighter. I think he can be just as good if not better than all those guys. Hes comfortable wherever the fight goes and I think Weidman may have issues getting him down and keeping him there. If the majority of the fight is on the feet I think he picks Chris apart. That said, NY venue and desperation key factors for Weidman. Much bigger guy too. Just see them trending in complete opposite directions.

                                                            Yeah if weidman fought old ass dad bod vitor, Tim Kennedy off a two year lay off instead of rockhold, Romero, and gegard he's look like a world beater too.

                                                            You'll see

                                                            Weidman is a bad motherfukker

                                                            Who has beat him up on the feet? He held his own with rockhold and Silvia amongst others.

                                                            I'm telling you becareful how much you bet on kelvin.

                                                                What I'm trying to tell you is he hasn't beat anybody elite at 185 ...

                                                                Make no mistake about it weidman is still elite despite losing to other elites.

                                                                I'm not joking and I've already told you why this is his easiest fight in years.

                                                                A dude who takes everybody he fights down (look it up) gets to fight a dude that he dwarfs that should be fighting at welterweight. Kelvin is 5-9 lolz giving up reach height and weight.

                                                                Call me crazy but I have to try and take advantage of that

                                                                    Make no mistake about it weidman is still elite despite losing to other elites.

                                                                    I'm not joking and I've already told you why this is his easiest fight in years.

                                                                    A dude who takes everybody he fights down (look it up) gets to fight a dude that he dwarfs that should be fighting at welterweight. Kelvin is 5-9 lolz giving up reach height and weight.

                                                                    Call me crazy but I have to try and take advantage of that
                                                                    I don't think you're crazy I just think you're not taking into account momentum and mental state of both guys. Weidman essentially HAS to win or his career will change big time. He could be tight as a result and gas has no reason to be tight. He should be loose and feeling great after his first two fights. Not saying Kennedy or Vitor are Romero rockhold or gegard but they both are bigger guys and vets of the division and neither fight was competitive. We just have different angles on it at the end of the day. Hopefully it's a good scrap and may the best man win.

                                                                      That's the worst part about all these stoppages he was close or winning in all of them.
