I'm not being egotistical i'm being honest. There can be value in any bet. Dogs are not the only value bets and the majority of people here dont realize that.

It is extremely rare for there to be any value in a -195 favorite in baseball. Extremely rare. Meanwhile, there are many times (often multiple times a day) where the dogs are getting value. Not to mention, dogs don't cost as much to play and the reward is much greater. This is especially the time of year when dogs begin to be extremely profitable. Favorites lines are inflated and still get pounded by the public, offering much better value to the dog bettors. So if you're looking to bet value, which makes more sense? Laying -200 once every 5 weeks or playing a few dogs daily?

The thing is though i'm not betting all 3-4 -200's per day. That is a losing proposition and I realize that. I'm very selective with my picks.

Dice-k is as good as they get,has been very consistent this year as far as having quality starts and is very capable of shutting down this baltimore lineup.
Cabrera has been as inconsistent as they get. He can be very wild and Boston's powerful lineup (.282 team avg tied for 1st in the majors) should be able to get some runs off him.
damn good job pat.i have never seen so many runs stranded.the people that had runline got ****ed.keep it coming man.good again,but lets not get get a heart attack game again.

does this count towards your ranking? Or just an action bet?

I'll count it. I don't care about the record. As long as I make cash. I'd say its a half action bet/inflated line value bet.

All signs don't point to mets. The value in the line is with the rockies, regardless of the outcome.
