      This is the problem with sabermetrics and other power ratings or formulas.. it easily gets 'stuck' on one team.

                  Destroyer, nothing personal pal but maybe u should consider having a break....Ur project has been going nowhere 4 a while and thinking that u can beat the books longterm is setting yourself up for burial...Just my advice and you probably dont wanna hear it but seeing ur slowly diminishing bankroll is a cause for concern....

                        Taking a break is what makes it look so bad... I took a break from this thread and went 9-2 in posted plays. I just need to keep grinding because in the end, I know I'm +EV.

                                            Ya, sneaking home when a player is injured is low... but Bamey should have never tried to turn two there. Just throw it to first, take the out and keep the lead.

                                              Here's an excerpt from an older thread... thought I would post it here:

                                              "The main thing is patience. I know the goal of this thread is lofty and a lot of you are excited that I've reached my previous two goals relatively easily and hope I can do the same here... but the past doesn't guarantee the future. I only doubled the bankroll in my last thread and it took me 7 months, trying to increase it 10x should be five times as hard and thus take me about 3 years to complete. Again, it could go longer, it could go shorter; the past doesn't predict the future. It's a very long grind and you have to be able and ready for it.

                                              A lot of you won't be able to do it... and I don't mean that in a mean or condescending way but the hardest part of gambling is learning to grind. There will be downswings that will last way longer than you can imagine... There will be nights when you wonder if I'm half-retarded... And truth be told, we may go broke before we reach the goal... but I'm FINE with that because my bankroll is an allotted amount that I'm ready to lose in hopes of reaching my goal.

                                              With that being said, I'm still going to carefully manage the bankroll... Still going to plug away, and hammer my edges as I find them... And hopefully with a little bit of luck and a lot of patience, we'll be at 100k in a couple years. So until we reach the goal or go broke, expect everything in between."

                                                                      when u've got a play over 4%...can you explain your reasoning...not for OUR benefit...but for yours...cuz the simple act of trying to justify it objectively will set off your own "bullshit" meter if you just "wanna" pound it for any other reason apart from the edge justfiying it...just like if your prof insists u write out your question clearly before contacting him...very often u figure it out yourself...if u gotta justify it to others, often u'll discover it's what you (not the "edge") wants

                                                                      just a thot to help "disguised chasing" (ie. revenge for previous losses or wanting to more-quickly "silence" the idiot shit-slingers that love to swarm after a downswing) from seeping into your capping/bet-sizing. As for the these air-wasters, i'd suggest absolutely ignoring any of their NON-contributions.

                                                                      I'm with you all the way...but for anything over 4%, could u just double-chek ur motivation with ur "better-judgement"...cuz the peanut gallery here are masters at cage-rattling/button-pushing...
