I've played one play a day before and 'came close' to a sweep. Pshh. That was pretty dumb. I hate when people say that. The Reds just plain lost and he only had 3 picks. Nothing close to it. Does he always act this arrogant during football/basketball? A lot of guys that give a review of games won and lost the night before are bad news, business or pick wise.

Thanks for the picks, PTJ

The Blue Jays love playing in the sun. They have a 13-2 record during the day, they should also have a sell out crowd in the stands pumping them up, as first place Toronto celebrates a national holiday today.

This is good stuff. Wasn't aware of the national holiday and I'm not sure whether that gives them a boost or not, but I like the angle. I'll roll with him. I was already on the D'Backs with Haren at a short price vs under-performing Nolasco and the streaky Fish. I'll book the Angels too and hope the Bulldog has a BIG day.

One suggestion for those who play the run line...

I like to hedge the bet with a money line wager as well. If you use Pinnacle I think they offer a (-1) run line which is much safer than a straight run line wager. But if your book doesn't offer it, you can structure the bet so that you get a (-1) line. That way if your team wins but only by 1 you push instead of losing outright.

All you need to do is figure out the amount you want to wager on the game. Then structure the bet so that the amount to win on the money line wager equals the amount to bet on the run line wager. On the Jays at my book it was about 3/5 on the money line and 2/5 on the run line. This gives me effectively a (-1) line at -125 odds. If the Jays cover the 1.5 run line I get -125 payout; if they win by 1 I push; and if they lose I lose the same amount I would have lost by betting it straight on the run line.

Good luck all!

I wish 5dimes offered -1 in baseball. I love playing -1 with their hockey wagers

[jellobiafra]

I do the same thing with hockey wagers.

whos that in your avatar payingthejuice?

[jellobiafra]

I dont do this often, but I got a play of my own. Im taking the Mets +130 over the Dodgers.

The Dodgers traveled overnight cross-country to come back home and play a game today. The way they played yesterday they used a otn of energy, couple that in with travelins from Florida all the way back to California. The Mets have been in California already for close to a week. So Im betting a bill on the Mets myself. +130 vs a traveled and tired Dodgers. Its a nice angle I think might hit myself.

I thought about this play from the same angle when I was looking over the games today. Stayed off it b/c you don't know what to expect with Redding, but I think it's solid.

I played the STL tonight because I can't see them getting swept at home in a 4 game series by a division rival. I'm hoping they manage to scratch one out and save some face.

I followed your advice and save 70$

[jellobiafra]

I followed your advice and save 70$

Excellent example of why I use this hedge. I actually do this for every game I want to bet where the vig is higher than -140. That's the most I'll pay for a straight money line baseball bet. If it is higher than that I use the (-1) model I described above to get the juice down to something more acceptable for me.

No?

lol is the BP arizona?

[mikejung75]

Baseball is just soo frustrating..

so hard to win god damn it!

[jellobiafra]

lol is the BP arizona?

Is it asking too much effort for you guys to just read the write-ups? I mean, do you need someone to log into your account and book the bet for you too?

No offense, ebbearsfb.... but you're the second person in this thread that has taken the time to ask this question and the answer is right there in the post. The play is the Angels. He recommends 20% more than your standard, as it's not a true *BP*.

[jellobiafra]

I see it was actually just you asking the question both times! LOL. But it was already answered once and again.... it's in the original post.
