Default I just put $1000 on ARZ. +275 (losing 2-0 in 5th)

What do you guys think of "in play" bets? ARZ has a good chance of coming back so I thought what the hell?

I've never done one of those, but it seems reasonable to me. They have a shot.

I usually like to make an in play bet earlier than the 5th inning. One time i put $500 on FLA. to win, they were losing by 5 runs in the 3rd and came back. They were something like +400 at the time, maybe +450. that was a nice payday.

i would slow down a bit, i want you to win here, slow down on the outrageous dogs like balti at boston

those just dont happen this time of year

the good ones are huge _+ money vs lousy teams

for example, the giants today(which i missed) was a nice one, houston tonite is nice bc the cubs are slowing a bit. minne MAY be worth a shot too

two rules for dogs

take a good team at plus money no matter wh the opponent (today thats minne, nyy, hous,laa)
take a bad team at BIG plus money if the opp is also bad (sf , tex)

I'm just bored of baseball and waiting for hockey to start. if i lose my $$$ then whatever, I started off with way less than what i have now and have taken out a very good amount thus far which i have banked.....

but i do know what you're saying, after today i'm cutting down bigtime until next month...
