I will not play RLs anymore

[SargeantHooker]

I thought that I had been pretty sharp with -1 1/2 RL this year, but tonight made me take a look back. First I get burned with the Cards today (as many did) then I play the bravos -11/2 and lose that as well. After looking back on my wagers this year I have decided to only play the Yanks -1 1/2. Almost every other team burns me almost every time. I want to thank all the guys here who have taught me money management because without your help I would have been found in a dumpster by now. Still about even for the season but have learned many lessons.

keep your chin up...the RL in MLB can beat you down pretty good sometimes

[SargeantHooker]

Thanks rev. My only two plays today & if I reversed the rls I would have only lost juice on the cards. Just frustrating as hell to reflect on

[dave7217]

instead of a -1.5 try using a -1 runline.

[SargeantHooker]

Thanks Dave, you're right. I need to get with an online, but I prefer to go with my local & that's all he has to offer. I try not to do this online for security purposes (job/background checks.)

RL's kill most of us but are appealing because of the lower juice on good teams

I bet them and you can see on my spreadsheet it does not work

i think you should go with 5dimes. they offer reducedjuice and you can also do the -1 run line. they are also have fast payouts.

[SargeantHooker]

Thanks for the input fellas. I'm going to look into 5dimes this weekend. JJ, we all know your spreadsheet is bullsh*t. You're a winner & not fooling anyone.

5Dimes!

Reverse run lines are money makers.

I feel your pain, I hate to hear late in the game, "well they are willing to give up a run for an out." Up by two of course, keep up the good job with the money management.

I am playing some RL's today, laying ML favs too high today

[SargeantHooker]

Which RL's Gold? Stop holding out on us!!!!!

First I get burned with the Cards today (as many did)

are we talking about the same game here?? if yes, then the CARDS losing 3-2 saved you a ton.. would you have preferred to pay -250 on the ML??? even though ATL won but did not cover the -1.5, you ended up saving money by playing the RL's on both, rather than the ML on both..

people might think they get killed by RL's, but alot of times, you save a ton when your -1.5 (-250 fav) lose by 1.. and in gambling, when you save money, its like winning..

my picks never play out with RL

Exactly.
