Posted a few games here and their, with no record, except for my big play few days ago that ended up bringing me back to even..Played Tor and AZ yest as well to be abck a few bucks...but wiht all the juice, ill take it as if im even...

YTD 1-2 --- +6.5 UNITS (posted) --- +0 Unposted/Posted plays

1.) Toronto -122 ---- 3 Units ---- WIN +3 UNITS

AJ has been dominating since his return. Many thought the huge investment the Jays made on him might have been a costly mistake because of his knack for hitting the DL every other month. But when the kid is healthy, he can duel with the best of en...

2.) Milw -108 --- 3 Units

Many saw Sheets as the commanding Ace of a young Milw rotation, but Capuano slowly developed into the Brew-Crews most reliable and winningest pitcher as of late. Also love the fact that only 8 out of every 100 of his fly balls are HR's, vey low #...also 20% of Caps hits are off line drives, and with the absence of Lopez and Kearns it makes the play even more enticing (stats provided by a good friend of mine, mofome)

3.) Balt -135/ Balt RL (-1.5) +115 ---1.5 Units on Each ---- CANCELLED (Pitching Change)

Have been riding Bedard for some time now, and see no reason to stop now when hes facing the 2nd worst team in the AL...The line seems a bit easy, but I dont think the books have caught up with Bedard's dominance s of late, and see him due for a letdown. Ill take my chances and ride a hot pitcher who can get the GP outsall day long. 3 unit play, if Balt somehow only wins by one, I break even, if they win by 2+ I hit a nice 3.2+ unit + payday

4.) CLE RL (-1.5) +125 -- 1 Unit --- BLOWOUT LOSS -1 UNIT
5.) CWS RL (-1.5) +135 --- 1.4 Unit (acutally played for 1.4 Units I just noticed, not 1...damn, loooks like a loss anyway)

6.) Rockies ML -102 --- 1 Unit

7.) Dodgers ML -127 --- 1 Unit

8.) Braves ML -127 ---- 1 Unit
--- LOSS -1.27 UNITS
*****ADDED****

9.) Cubs -120 (Prior/Astacio LISTED) --- 2 UNITS ---- BAD BEAT/DISGUSTING LOSS -2.4 UNIS
Big card, but this is prob one of my favorite cards that I have seen all year. And to see that many of my plays are the same as some of my favorite cappers, Ill take my chances with the big card. Looking to hit 2 outta 3 of the big plays, an 3 out of 5 in the smaller plays. Lets hope the hot steak since my huge play on the Tigers on Wed contnues. Ive noticed many times that after I get hot and win a good chunk, I lay off and dont play the games I like, and end up watching the teams I like dominate. I wont make that mistake again. I would never play a card this big if I was losing. But after nailing 2 out of 3 2 unit plays in the last 2 days, and the 12 Unit degenerate play on Wed, I will keep playing what I like until I get cold. GL

had some freeplay $ left from my bonus, so added an extra 1/2 unit on Toronto...no loss towards my balance if I lose, free $ if i win...wont count towards my record though....gonnna start posting, 2nd half baseball is what I feel is more handicap-friendly as teams start to get into gear for their respective division/wildcard races

I really like your card. I look for Atl and LAD to win by at least 2 so I am laying 1/2 unit on each runline as well as a unit on the ML. Just my two cents. In the long run, I find that it makes me more money to play games this way if I feel it is solid

Smoke Thank You my man...cannot thank you enough for all the money you have made me...played AZ with you last night and you were riht on the money, thanks

GFan, to each his own strategy...if you see one that works, then play it until you see it faltering...I like it though...In the end it will make you more money, but if you feel a team is going to win in a SOLID fashion, then winning by 3 runs shouldnt be a prob...gl tonight on your 2 bets that you said you played with me, and with whatever else you play

ADDING ONE MORE

9.) CUBS ML -120 (Prior/Astacio LISTED) ---- 2 UNITS
'
Tailing Smoke Jensen here, but on the ML.yes I know he has lost every game so far this season. But hes still got the "stuff", 22k's in 21 innings this season and he got his first quality start of the season last game going 6 strong. Have loved this kid since I watched him pitch in high school, and I really hope his injury plagued days are over. It would be a shame to see a kid with SO MUCH potential, never get the chance to fully shine because of injuries...most of which he got in the unluckiest of circumstances. Prior gets hist first win of the season tonight....Prior only allowed 4 hits in his last start, and fanned 7. In the start before that he fanned 9 in 5.2. 4 BB's in each of those contests and a lack of run support resulted in him getting the L...with Lee back, and the team finally having its 2 cornerstone players back on the field at the same time, and with both getting a few games under their belts to get the rust off, I see no reason not to take a proven DOMINANT pitcher...his control has been his only problem his last 2 games, he had low hit counts and high K ratios...tonight I feel he gets it together against a distraight Nationls team thats 3-7 in is last 10, whil the Cubbies are making a nice turn around to their season and have won 6 of 10...really love this play now that SMoke Jensen, aka the Cash Cow, is on it

I think (at least most places) automatically make it listed pitchers when taking the RL

HOLY SHNIT...Just noticed Ortiz was starting...had so many other games to watch, was just watching all the play by plays on CbsSportsline MY Scores...I did have Bedard to start, and I just thought he was geting roughed up...wow, that really just made my day...thanks for letting mek now guys, I was kinda dissapointed in my capping of the game, thinking how in Gods name did I have the balls to say Bedard was pitching on fire when he allows 5 runs in the first...then I get back home from Oscars (any of you guys have that restaurant where you live, if you ever come to San Diego, you HAVE to try it...bets ribs/breadsticks/salads ive ever had)...anyway, I just checked both my bets and Bedard was a MUST pitch in both my ML and RL...thank Gosh

nice, if Toronto pulls this one off (KNOCK ON WOOD!!!)...i go 1-0 on my 3 unit plays, thats better than 2-1 b/c of the juice...Milw postponed and Balt I got a pitching change, which I think im lucky I did becasue the TB bats could score 12 in an inning vs Pabelbon tonight, they are hitting anything and anyone...Capped Prior wrong as wel, another ND for him, better than his 5th straight loss at least...hope they pull through for a 2 unit lead as I want Smoke Jensen to win his RL bet as well...lets go Cubbies and Jays...already lost my 1 unit play on the Braves, if the Jays and Cubs pull through that will make the Braves game a minor bump on the road to big $$$

should be up 2.73 Units if it werent for a rookie getting a 2 out 2run double in the 8th for the Nationals...instead:

1-3 -1.67 UNITS today, with following pending:

1.) Milw -127 (Capuano/Ramirez LISTED) --- 3 Units
2.) CWS RL (-1.5) +125 --- 1.4 UNITS (first posted as a 1 unit play, but made a mistake.EIther way looks like a loss)
3.) LAD -127 --- 1 UNIT
4.) Rockies -102 --- 1 UNIT

Just saw on ESPN that Turnbow has a 36.00 ERA SINCE THE ALL STAR BREAK :scared ... wish I could have caught that stat before I pounded the Brew Crew...oh well...watch Cap go 8 strong with a 5-2 lead, and Turnbow give up 4...been one of those weeks, except for that Tigers 12 unit play that somehow hit...even if it didnt hit, I was gonna double up to win my risk amount if I lost, and they ended up winning both anyway so I guess you can say I had the right idea on that one :shrug: .... Come on Brew Crew,

wow, looking solid on the 3 unit plays...but like a degenerate played almost all of my leans and have gone 0-4 on my smaller plays, with Rockies about to make it 0-6....1-5 on the day, -4.09 (counting Rockies as a loss, down 5-1 late)...really Need milw to hold the lead to avoid a disastrous first posting day, and a LA win would break me even...pretty sad to go 2-0 on your BIG plays and still break even because of 6 small, stupid plays
