    I think Texas has about a 66-75% chance of winning this game, which is why I love this bet
    Then the value on Verlander vs a meatball from O's would be -220 (average) for the Tigers mL. Thus also making the run line at -150. If the value was less than that, than we would all be rich.
    Hey, you said that the offense for the Rangers is way better. Now you're making it sound like it's gonna be a 5-4, 3-2,6-5 game.
    Come on man, don't be afraid of your golden brass thread.

      you have already proven to this forum that betting juice is killer for your bankroll




      books always undervalue the underdog and overvalue the favorite, because the bookies know the public loves playing the favorite and they offer worse odds on it, so thinking you can find value in favorites is counter intuitive

      tell me brahma, how did you calculate that texas has a 66-75% chance of winning? how did you calculate that the actual odds should be -270?

      you dont seem to actually be using mathematics, you are just pulling those numbers out of your ass, but please, feel free to prove me wrong

        thats an absurd statement. Every player in baseball is worn out after 162 game season, and certainly the mental fatigue would be more extreme for TB who has
        been under the gun for the last 30 days.

          I just had a mediocre september - truth be told I still hit around 50% (when you convert my juice betting to spread betting) but my style of betting doesn't work in september because so many teams have big leads and just cruise to easy division wins



          next year I'm just gonna kill it in april - august and avoid betting baseball in september all together

              it's not about randomly betting big faves, when the fukk did I ever do that?? It's about betting good teams on hot streaks facing opponents that they have a history of dominating



              in the month of april and may, the philadelphia phillies went 26-10 against teams under .500

                                      Unfortunately that rookie is Matt Moore, an absolute stud. Looked at this line 3 minutes after the game started and was immediately upset I didn't get the value on the dog here.

                                                              damn I wish I got in here before the rays started winning... I cant f'ing believe you said Kyle Lohse>>>>>>Matt Moore... Not one got damn person who knows anything about baseball would even consider writing that. Holy f'in crap you are so square it's crazy.

                                                              Do yourself a favor and google Matt Moore... #1 prospect in baseball, a lot of scouts say best pitching prospect in a decade+

                                                                There's winning plays and there's losing plays, end of story
                                                                While I agree with you about this credence, I do think you may have missed some of the background storylines occuring here.

                                                                Longorias Walk Off Home Run was the first of it's kind that has sent a team to the post season since Bobby Fukkin Thompsons 'Shot Heard Round the World', and if you don't anticipate a wave of emotional and psychological momentum from that moment you were selling the Rays short. And the fact that Moore, while a rookie, could find a groove and completely dominate under the right circumstances.

                                                                I only wish I had loaded up on the TB ML instead of the Runline, but oh well, I'll take what I can get!
