it will get hit in football season

**yisman** · 07-23-11, 07:42 PM

Someone will get there. Could definitely take a few months, though.

**yisman** · 07-23-11, 08:06 PM

Line for softball was 2 runs off, and soccer ended several minutes before 9, but they won't unlock. Still locked now, about 10 minutes after soccer ended.

cavendish yo

**craigpb** · 07-24-11, 01:18 AM

Yep Cavendish once more.

**craigpb** · 07-24-11, 11:13 PM

Wish there was some early morning picks regularly instead of waiting til noon.

**yisman** · 07-24-11, 11:16 PM

^ Pretty much you only get morning picks with cycling and golf.

That Sunday night game couldn't have been worse, really.

Lost a bunch of money, and two clear percentage picks lost. Votto HWS had to be like 60% and the home run one maybe even more than that.

**yisman** · 07-25-11, 01:18 PM

Another missed pick, this time German soccer. 2:15 is an unusual start time.

**lordswing** · 07-25-11, 03:04 PM

did the line move on that game? it was like -120 when i checked last night. the -150 fav this morning ****** me over ofc

close to giving up, =/

**yisman** · 07-25-11, 03:07 PM

I saw Frankfurt -114/+105 just before it started.

Moscow was a massive favorite. They were -2/-2.5 just before gametime, yet somehow didn't cover, despite being up 2-1 at the half (the goal for the other side was also scored by Moscow; an own goal), and despite the underdog being down a man for the last 40+ minutes.

Skipping the K prop with a W2. Usually under 1.5 Ks would be favored, I believe, but this time there have been a ton of strikeouts in the game. Enough to scare me off.

**craigpb** · 07-26-11, 12:12 AM

At least some WNBA is on there to make it a bit easier.

**lordswing** · 07-26-11, 12:28 AM

trust in the pick %s guys!

**yisman** · 07-26-11, 01:30 PM

I guess I'm handling August.

Cost of entering is 21 points.

Prize pool will be number of points in the pool minus the cost of rake.

Non-pros can start paying now.

Looks like I was able to do it all at once this time so I won't have to remember each day. Hopefully NFL will make August a bit easier.

**craigpb** · 07-27-11, 05:49 PM

Guessing Man U is a nice play, considering last year and their recent play.

**yisman** · 07-27-11, 06:52 PM

Well, that was frustrating. Had XBH selected, but backed off because the pitchers were rolling and you had bottom of orders due up.

Top of third, Rowand hits an RBI triple.

**lordswing** · 07-27-11, 08:35 PM

first 3 weeks may have been my best month, but fell too short =/

grats on the side bet too, paying up before pro status expires (when did they take gift cards away from the point store? was thinking bout trading some in)

so who's up between our sidebet, you or cabo? i think i only won once

**yisman** · 07-27-11, 08:55 PM

I think me, but I haven't kept track of the winners each month.

I guess it's just me and Cabo next month if you're not renewing?

I didn't hear anything about gift cards being removed. I would've thought threads would be started if that's the case.

Gift cards are still there.

as for the first three weeks, you mean your best month in terms of %?

**yisman** · 07-27-11, 09:07 PM

Anyway, mikejamm had the Phillies tonight, so I have a good shot at winning this month via tiebreaker. Of course, someone could catch me in the last few days.

**craigpb** · 07-28-11, 11:10 AM

Phoenix should be pretty good for an early pick.

**yisman** · 07-28-11, 11:15 AM

I'm going with soccer instead.

**craigpb** · 07-29-11, 01:36 PM

Might take tennis for variety; have to look those up.

**yisman** · 07-29-11, 03:32 PM

Month is essentially over. We start again on Monday.

**lordswing** · 07-29-11, 11:13 PM

I was talking about the sportsbook gift cards, couldn't find them a couple of days ago, but now I see them. Might grab a BoL or SportBet before pro status is up

Congrats Yis on the month

**craigpb** · 07-30-11, 02:48 AM

Still an outside shot somebody does something on the weekend.

..thks for handling August points have been sent in link you set up..Great job..Contest is cool

**craigpb** · 08-01-11, 10:11 AM

New month hopefully better results.

**CaDDyy** · 08-01-11, 01:17 PM

feels nice to win the first pick of the month feels like i have a chance only 26 more

**craigpb** · 08-02-11, 12:04 AM

Already a better month as I somehow went undefeated.

**yisman** · 08-02-11, 04:17 PM

No side bet this month for the first time in quite a while.

**MexicanStallion** · 08-02-11, 04:41 PM

I am a nice 0-4 to start the month off

**yisman** · 08-02-11, 09:16 PM

train wreck tonight. Considered just taking taking the Giants tonight, as the biggest favorite, but decided I had skipped enough picks with a W2. So I take the Mets, figuring it'd probably end in time. Not only does it not end in time, but Isringhausen blows another save.

**dynamite140** · 08-02-11, 11:08 PM

tough streak there thats for sure
