    i was just betting a stale line and remember some1 referencing nate silver b4. i didnt particularly understand why line was moving in favor of brazil. laid a lil off and won sum back live betting so i didnt get hurt too bad. instead of rallying around the neymar injury for a gm they just gave up. home field not as strong as it was in yrs past i thnk

    Just in time, too.

    However, penetrate Nate Silver. 65% chance of Brazil winning.

    agree on both. got lebron goes elsewhere +375.

    thinking hard about paying the juice on carmelo to knicks. was up to -900 yesterday. -300 currently. going to try and read up on any recent news. might have to pull trigger at this price.

    these lines have been bouncing around like ping pong balls. potential to make some free money by playing the swings

    I'm a fan of Lebron now win or lose..

    Glad to see he's going back to where he started.. Didn't see this coming.. First class act thing Lebron has done in my eyes since coming into the NBA... I went from disliking this guy to actually liking him now..

    Cleveland fans went from hate to love almost over night too with this announcement I'm sure..

    Thx homie... I hit 5 once and am chasing it for the 2nd time on this one with SF -1... they sharpened the line on me, but I still like SF. I've slow played the sh*t on this 2nd go around, first pick hit on 7/1.

    no prob. Did they email you yet about the prize again? Curious as to what the $50 prizes are and what if they're going to allow multiple wins.

    Also, some fun + money plays today...

    Twins -1.5 +220
    With either starter, this game could turn into batting practice and get out of hand either way. I'll take the Twinks with their pen at +220.

    Phillies first 5 innings -1/2 +155
    Strasburg can be gotten to, and Hamels has the capacity to pitch lights out.

    very interesting. i'm not sure what you guys are seeing b/c they dont let you see the lines once you've made your pick. but sounds like edu was correct about them moving the lines, which, is a little surprising to me. i didnt think they would adjust lines in a free contest.

    have to check these things early morning.

    Yeah, they move the lines a lot, I've seen em adjust a few times, oddly the ways they move them don't seem to make much sense. But I'm trying not to spend too much time thinking about a contest that has relatively small value.

    I also hit the 5 streak for the second time yesterday. Got the email again today. Winning multiple times is definitely allowed. Nothing special about the prizes though, they're all worth ~40. I took the freeroll cash.

    Freeplay cash is worth about $33 though. If you need to build your roll you should take the freeplay, otherwise the prizes are the way to go.

    Interestingly, the soccer play I posted was actually a game for today, they cancelled it rather than letting it hang for another day. Wondered if they were going to let me take a second pick or not.

    How do you figure that? Not that it really matters. I have no interest in the prizes and it's not worth the trouble to sell them.

    I like to look at freeroll money as lottery money that I can use to play longshot hunches that I shouldn't be using real money on. It's fun when it pays off.

    He is saying if your bankroll is sufficient enough that you are maxing everything you want, then give the wife a camera and possible earn a bj which would usually be worth more than $33.

    That's pretty close to the best price you can get with semi-decent line shopping. If you really held out and waited for large arbs to be available you could get 100% on it, but you may have to wait months or years to use it. The way most people play them, it's less than 50% on the dollar.

    Was hoping for a decent line on Reds @ home... oh well.

    Just took Los Halos -1.5 for contest.

    For fun, also, gulp, like the Twinks -1 again tomorrow. Should be decent +money much like today (books were giving Correia no respect). Hughes is volatile but I'll roll with him given his last outing, and given Anderson is returning from injury for the Rocks, so don't expect him to eat many innings. Twinks with BP advantage. Hughes could totally suck ass and serve softballs, but I'll take the +money.

    interesting. i lost my contest pick yesterday, but its still showing my streak as being alive. lol.

    i think its because i made today's pick before yesterday's pick concluded (i had west coast mlb yesterday, so it wasnt graded by 12am or whenever i made today's pick).

    i wonder if i had won last night, would i have been credited with a win?

    +money Degen MLB action:

    'Stros getting no respect @ home vs the BoSox. Hit on Peacock first 5 last week pitching against Irwin at +money, and am playing first 5 again today with Peacock pitching against Bucholz @ +168. Also threw some stripper money on 'Stros -1.5 +253.

    Respect the Peacock!
