                          Is the Hot Dog under a gimme or does it just look that way? Also they will put anything on STFC that is on ESPN, odds be damned.

                              Awful day for streak On the road most of the day.

                              Anyway, hot dog prop:


                              Total Hot Dogs eaten by Joey Chestnut 09:00 AM103 Over58.5 Hot Dogs Eaten -104 104 Under58.5 Hot Dogs Eaten -112

                              This is only for chestnut, but no one else is expected to get to that many. Pretty much a toss-up of a prop.

                              Is the Hot Dog under a gimme or does it just look that way? Also they will put anything on STFC that is on ESPN, odds be damned.
                              They'll post anything from ESPN, but they try to find a way to make it a fairly even prop. Based on odds, this is pretty much 50/50. Notice they didn't make it Chestnut or AOR, because that would've been slanted.

                                I'm late to the discussion re:hot dogs, but IMO over was a very good bet (took it for cash and points). Last year's totals were way down because of 100+ degree heat, so the totals were bound to go up. I believe 6 of the top 7 (top 5 guys, top 2 gals) beat there number from last year. I made about $250 cash off the event, which is quite a lot for me since I usually bet $10-$50 per pick.

                                  I'm off to a great start this month, with 15 wins in the first 4 days. On pace for the monthly wins title (and on the leader board currently), so I'll keep pushing (rather than trying to build a streak) as long as that is true.

                                      Its highly probable I won't keep the pace up, but if/when I lose several in a row it won't have anything to do with me commenting on my good luck thus far.

                                          it isn't the posting that jynxes it...it is the mentality that comes about that allows one to post about it...one becomes a bit too cocky and full of themselves...and they think they can't be stopped

                                            I meant to take no XBH, luckily forgot to pick it. I was waiting to see what part of the orders.

                                            Then I wanted to take no runs, but they locked that 10 minutes early. Rest of the night stuff not so good so I'll wait for tomorrow.

                                              Lots of upsets with the baseball picks last night though I realize most were low favs.

                                                Messed up this afternoon. Had it down to Milwaukee and USA soccer, and wanted to check odds on US and then decide. Ended up remembering 2 minutes too late for Milwaukee, and USA had dropped into the -140 area. Not the worst thing, though.

                                                      Nothing to get cocky about. I'm just taking the (Vegas) favorite every time. I've been fortunate enough to guess (and I do mean guess) correctly when two games were equally attractive several times. I don't claim to be smarter than the line, just smart enough to go with it instead of the streaker percentages, which often highly favor the underdog.
