Anyways, figured like I'd post my plays somewhere so here they are starting with a balance of $1000. I don't follow a strict money management system, but I do cash out each Monday as I try to play this for extra $. When I'm hot I up my bet amount, when I'm cold I decrease, similar to a blackjack or craps style...

Balance: $1000,

Plays for 7/19

Tampa Bay Rays ML -172; Risking $258.00 to win $150.00

Texas Rangers ML +107; Risking $50.00 to win $53.50

St. Louis Cardinals/Philadelphia Phillies UNDER 9 runs -115; Risking $57.50 to win $50.00


I rarely play totals, but with pitching match ups like the ones we have today I'm forced too..I also lean Kansas City/Toronto Under 9 runs, but usually lock in any plays that start after 7pm around 730pm,

Also leaning Giants, White Sox, Red Sox
 
Feel good about this one, feel free to tail or fade.

Never made it back here in time to post up the night play, but pretty good day though aside from the Stl under 9 and the Kansas City game pushing in crazy fashion,

PTD: 2-1, +146.00

Balance: $1,146.00

7/20

Tampa Bay Rays ML -175; Risking $262.50 to win $150.00

SF Giants ML +105; Risking $100.00 to win $105.00

Texas Rangers ML -125; Risking $125.00 to win $100.00


theme of the next few days will be ride the hot streaks out of the post AS gates until they stop

Rays sweep this series 8 times out of 10, playing them big the next few days

Actually, it's the only sport in which the books do not have a substantial advantage. It's impossible per say to set an accurate line on a baseball game, they can only be set in hopes of bringing 50/50 action in...therefore exploitable lines are there.

Quick recent example - Texas' odds in each game at Fenway. They should have been favored in every game with the direction the two teams are going in - but the oddsmakers knewthey would be taking in a ton of Red Sox money and had to set the lines low - which allowed some to crush them...

X - almost had that parlay bud. I suppose doing those once in awhile isn't too bad as you were pretty close to a quick G...I read a report on Laffey yesterday just having a kid and dying to face the Twins though. He lost his first career start to them (coincidentally with Scott Baker pitching against him) 3 to 2. So he wanted the win for himself and his newborn, bad. Gotta find little things like that to get an advantage.

Lincecum for +105 anytime is great but especially in a game where the teams are heading in two different directions.
 
YTD: 4-2


Lost the big one on the Rays last night, that hurt big time...so many chances, but that's the way it can unfold...I'll post the next time as I don't have time to add it up, and can't figure out how to copy/paste on a Mac...know I was down 52.50 after those 3,


7/21

Florida Marlins ML -117; Risking $234.00 to win $200.00

Cincinnati Reds ML +110; Risking $100.00 to win $110.00

LA Dodgers ML -141; Risking $141.00 to win $100.00
 
I'll check in.

I've almost done away with straight bets. I just do daily parlays of 3 to 6 teams. On avg. I'll hit one per week, which gives me a big payout.

Yesterday on a 6-teamer I was a Cubs win a way from winning 2k.

Back at it today.
 
YTD: 6-3

Balance now: $1288.50


Plays for 7/22;


Orioles +1.5 (-115); Risking $115.00 to win $100.00

Rangers ML -168; Risking $168.00 to win $100.00

Giants ML -134; Risking $134.00 to win $100.00 (this one scares me, but with the late game last night + huge sweep for the DBacks I'll make the play)

Post your parlays.
 
Well, I was gonna wait until after the game but I will win my 5-team parlay from this morning once the STL/PHI finishes. I had ATL, DET, FLA, WAS/CIN (Under 8.5), STL/PHI (Under 7).

Also bet each of those games independently to win a total of 1k.

Damn, nice hit. You were probably sweating the Reds game.

Sportsbook.com FTW
 
I was...Very much so. Very delighted when they won though.

Tonight I got:

MIN(-148)/BAL

BOS/SEA (Under 8.5)

MIL(-157)/PITT

LAA/TEX (Over 8 )

Bet straight wagers as well as a parlay including all four of those games. Also have a pending parlay where I'm already 2-0 from earlier and have Min, Mil, and the under in the M's game to top it off.

Could be a huge day today. Either way though, I've already smashed it.
 
What are your guy's thoughts on future bets?? Im looking mainly at the NBA and NFL.....
