    Can a guy catch a break?
    Nobody ever told me capping sports was easy, especially baseball.

    During the first two months of the season I ended up doing fairly well, ending April and May with positive units and the biggest bankroll I have seen in a while.

    It would definitely lead to an optimistic June, especially since it would be a short month and I would get a slow start to July.

    (Because of a 2 week trip to India)

    With all of the handicapping and reading and stat checking, I am starting June 0-7.

    Worst, I have EVER started a month or even losing streak. Hopefully a win comes soon enough.

      IE,

      Maybe take a break ...enjoy the trip...come back refreshed and strong. P.S. I disagree with the other guy. 7 games in 5 days isn't too many if you feel good about what you've handicapped.

      The WORST thing you can do is start taking advice from guys in this forum....me included....swarth your on path.

      GL!

        i've gone on seven game losing streaks before, ya just gotta keep grinding, avoid chasing, and no bet over your means.

        there's always rough patches, but be smart and don't bet angrily and you'll be ok

          There are only a handful of sure things a season and most guys know this but do not have the discipline to sit tight and wait for a fish to jump in the boat. They are all phucking action junkies and need to get a bet down. They always need some action. It is called degeneracy.

            I am not the other guy! I am THE PROFIT!

            Around this goddamn place 5 games is the early Saturday card

            And if you'll notice there's alot of barreled in fuks here too!

            Pick your spots wisely, if you're an action junkie thats one thing! If you're serious about making cash that's a different story. I am the latter

            You guys will see what I mean come football season. Just follow the Little Chicago Syndicate & all will be good

              no truer words have ever been spoken, sir

              It's like an alcoholic with a fifth in the cabinet

                    IE....And I think Profit and Buzzy would agree.....this is one tough business to figure. One game a year or one hundred it doesn't matter.

                    And the guys are right too...To some (or most) it's about the action.

                        Stealth,

                        I could not agree more. Thanks for advice all.

                          We'd all be rich if we just waited for the fish to jump into our boats.

                          Follow the advice given and don't dig deeper for the sake of action. Do what you do and don't get discouraged...look at the Orioles, they showed up for work today and snapped an 11 game losing streak.

                          I know you know how to cap and find the winners. Just a funk, that's all.

                          Maybe reduce your bet size until your confidence builds, but you'll pull out of it. MLB is rough and we've all hit the skids at one point.
