A few questions:
If we pick chalk in the CP thread, are you just going to assume that we are betting to win 1 unit, unless you hear otherwise?

Likewise, if we pick a dog, are you assuming we're risking 1 unit?

Is this how the CP's record is kept?

One final thought:
You might recommend in the thread that people make a pick before reading the thread. I'm not saying they aren't, but I find it hard to believe that people looked at the slate of games today and half of everybody picking completely on their own came up with Houston laying tons of chalk.

That said, I do like the play. I'd like it a lot more in the sub -150 range. Reitsma has terrible WHIP, and a pretty poor ERA over quite a few innings (last year). I have no idea if he's improved at all. Should be a pounding.

Lastly, thanks for maintaining that thread. I know its a lot of work. I like checking it everyday, and it gave me a win yesterday on a game I wasn't going to play.

For those of you who joined the thread late...

For those of you who joined the thread late...

All plays will be for 1 UNIT....

If you bet a +140 DOG and they win you will get credit for +1.40 UNITS..

If you bet a 140 FAV and they win you will get credit for +1.00 UNITS..

If you bet a +140 DOG and they loose you will loose -1.00 UNITS..

If you bet a -140 FAV and they loose you will loose -1.40 UNITS..

I use Pinnacles lines and write them down when they are released over night... If a line changes either way ... I still go by the number that was first put out..

Example today.. Houston was a -161 FAV last night when I posted.. Today at game time they were -187 FAV... I will use the -161 ML ....

Hope this helps...

BM, i have a question for you. I understand you using the original moneyline, but what about when the total changes?

I.E Mont/NYM total opened at 8 i believe? But now it's at 7.5? Which line do you use in scoring.



Edited cause no use talking about the Hou game till it's over.
