Profit/Loss: +1,961

Well, I have seen my profit go from more than $16,000 to just under $2,000. To say I'm in a funk would be the understatement of the year! I normally go through two or three losing streaks per calendar year, but I can't remember enduring a slide this long. I know it's only a matter of time before I put an end to this nonsense, and when I do, the book is going to pay big time! I just hope I'm still around posting when it happens. I am one of the most confident cappers you will ever meet, but this streak is definitely eating at me. Hopefully today is the beginning of a long winning streak. I need to get my profit back where it belongs! Best of luck to everyone today.

Thanks fellas!

Payne, it's too early for me to make a play. I will be watching the lines throughout the day. I am keeping a close eye on the Yankees/Indians game and the Marlins/Nationals game. I will post if I decide to pull the trigger on either game. Best of luck to you bro!

GL Wise....as you can see from my post yesterday,I'm going through the same funk you are. I know I was kidding yesterday but I can't find a winner even if I had the final scores. Stick with it and somehow we will all come out of this.....GL on today's plays

I had the LAD -1.5 and Saito gives up 2 runs in the 9th for a 5-4 LAD win...unbelievable....

You're picking too many games, and you're picking them for general rather than specific reasons. That's close to action betting.

You were kicking ass in NCAA tournament/bowl games. Why? Because you focused on one or two games a night, picking between strong teams with solid incentives to win, and you made your picks for specific reasons related to something you picked up related to money flows.

But now you're trying to pick ten games a night between good/bad/mediocre teams with no particular incentive to win.

That's how it looks from here - from an inferior capper who definitely wants to see you get back on track. In short, I don't think you're in a funk, I think your strategy doesn't work for mid-season baseball.

Oh man, I knew you were on a slide, Wise, but that is not good. ALL my best for the recovery...I know how it feels.

TONITE...crap, your picks are the only two games I'm not betting in the AL tonite. Following SMOKE in the CWS and LAA runlines. And...

OK...my small suggestion. With very little breakdown, since my reasons are legion. Jays are NOT going to get swept in this series. They hit a hot Florida team, swept Atlanta, lost the series in Texas. As JP Riccardi said after the Rangers game, "Let's pack our bags and get the hell out of Texas." But Boston got swept in Tampa and the Yanks won, so the Jays are 4 games behind Boston and 1 behind the Yanks. They are looking to win 3/4 in the KC series going into the All Star break, with 3 of their best pitchers going. Tonite is their poorest, and he (and a very strong pen with BJ Ryan lights out) may well win anyway.

This is NOT a homer advert, I am suggesting that this is a series that is perfect to chase in, and I've been planning on it for a month. I'm going to lay out a lot of money on the first game, and not hesitate to double down as it moves along, no matter what the odds. The Jays are chasing the Bostons and the Yankees for the division, everyone knows what is riding on this series, and even tho the Royals are hot (never thought I'd say that), they will not sweep.

Just a suggestion, and if it looks stupid, just disregard it. But I'm trying to help you get out of a bad streak, and I know that you are not afraid of big $$$. Good luck friend, from an honorary Ojibway to a good Cherokee capper. :)

Keep plugging Wise, it's been a rough year for alot of good cappers. Keep posting and it just takes one good weekend run.

I look forward to your picks tomorrow, and let's hurt the man.

GL Wise, hope you make a recovery soon, bases are very tough to figure out right now. many good madjack cappers are strugling right now. I can't figure out who is going to make a recovery first but i will be waiting.
