    Haven't won a bet in a while.

    How do I break the streak? Do I bet both sides of the game to get a winner?

    Stop betting. You'll never lose a game again.

    Orioles +1.5 -120 didn't work out so well.

    ouch, do you remember the lines? Can this ever be a good bet? I'm guessing we would certainly need 10 cent lines, don't know how accurately you can predict the likelihood of it falling on a 1 run win for the favored team.... I'm sure you could but I haven't heard of anyone doing this before now....so must always be unprofitable long-term?

    I've done it a few times...I usually only bet it when both lines are around the +130 mark

    And no I don't think it's a smart thing to do..but I think I might have won 3 or 4 in a row before I lost it...so it's not something you want to do all the time..

    I can understand fading Brock but how could you not jump on the spurs when John posted Mavs -3 even
    To be even semi successful at this you have to DROP YOUR EGO and tail people who may have put just that little bit of extra time in

    Orioles and nats i don't understand how they stay in business.

    They have no fan base. It's sad really.

    and it amazes me that the owners still can make a profit running these teams with no interest from their local people.

    low salary and efficient business model, look at the marlins they have no fans but probably make a higher return on investment than almost any other major league team. When your team salary is 25 million it can't be too hard...even if your only drawing 10-15k fans a game....

    These owners are these whoreshit teams are basically stealing money. The orioles would have a better chance of winning with bobby/sammy starting.

    Guy i've been to orioles games. I went to 3 oriole/yankee games and 90% of the fans are yankee fans... and if you look on tv when they are playing a non competitive opponent, lets say like the bluejays they won't have more than a few thousand fans there.


    These owners only care about making a buck and not fielding a good team that has a chance to win.
