Ok then lets carry on lol - there is another win putting this run at 2-0 and total for the thread at 4-1 . OT helped big time so some luck never hurts. So that will put us at $2200 .Comment -
Ok lets go for a good solid pick - i like the Dodgers Over The Astros. Lilly looked good last time and the numbers favor LA . LA is 17-8 last 25 on the road. They are 4-1 last 5 against Houston. So the play is
LA Dodgers at -129 risking $645 to win $500
And then we have another pick-i like the Indians with the Over at 7.5 , Both these teams score close to an average of 9 a game(just short) and both Give Up a total of over 9 runs a game. Cleveland has had the last 16 of 20 on the road go Over. The play is
Cleveland/Athletics Over 7.5 risking $625 to win $500
AND -------
Time for a shot --- a $500 parlay on both games Risking $500 to win $1098Comment -
CLE/OAK over a good play...Comment -
Unreal-games like this totally frustrate. LA did fine but missed the Clev over by 1 run. 5000 guys left on base as well as a man on 3rd with 1 out that would have won it and they screw it up. Oh well that puts me at 5-2 total picks for this thread and still at $1500 . But wow we would have been close to that $5000 if that Over woulda hit. Oh well.Last edited by captrobey; 04-21-12, 12:35 AM.Comment -
Ok here we go- 2 more picks...
First O7.5 for the Cin REDS Here's why
Scoring wise both teams score a total of just Over 7 runs , But they give up an average of around 9.5 runs a game. And 5 of the last 6 games these teams have played each other the total has gone Over. So my pick...
Reds/Cubs Over 7.5 risking $600 to win $500
Also a second pick. This one i was a bit more leary of but i like the numbers. It is the Rangers Over 9 Runs. These pitchers both have really good ERAs . Defensively they both give up an average of Over 6 runs. And the juice is on the under . However i am going Over because i like some other numbers. Offensively they score an average of over 10 runs a game. Closer to 11. Also when these 2 play the Over finds its way to win. 5 of last 6 have gone over. And there have been some high scoring games out of the last 10 games they have scored 10 runs or more 6 times. 3 were under 9 and 1 push. I am going against the grain and going with ...
Rangers/Tigers Over 9 runs risking $476 to win $500Comment -
Additional play
$500 2-game parlay
Reds Over 7.5 risking $500 to win $1250 ( The 2nd game i am leaving open for now since although i like the Rangers i will not use that one in a Parlay since i do not feel as strong with it)Comment -
Cmon 6 runs in the 1st 2 innings and nothing since. Lets have a good last 3 innings. St least the other game with the rangers won but this is what we have the parlay on.Comment -
Unfkin real 2nd and 3rd no out and they do not score.This reminds me of last night game a bit just without all the walks.Comment -
I hope we get this would suck to lose the parlay and the bet by 1 run again . Especially when they had 2nd and 3rd with no outs and did not score and then to lose by 1 round would suck. Cmon gimme 1 run .Comment -
All right 1st and 3rd no outs . If they do not score here i think i may go on a shooting spree lol.Comment -
Where are you located so I can avoid that spree?Comment -
Wow WTH i swear this is beyond frustrating . 2 games i lost unless they score a run in the T9th did not score where i coulda won with noone out and a man on 3rd at least 2xs each game.Comment -
Lol NJComment -
Unreal now i am just at $900 twice screwed over with games that should have won with a parlay. So that puts me at 6-3 ( Should be 8-1 but oh well)Comment -
tough loss cap.Comment -
Yea the last TWO i lost were REAL tough losses. Both should have won and would have hit both parlays. Both games i needed a run to win and they had a guy on 3rd with no outs at least 2xs coming down the stretch and did not score . Those are the most frustrating ones. I would rather lose big then have that crap happen. Despite that i am still 6-3 total. All right i am going with the next pick.
White Sox -110 . I like the fact that they are 8-1 against Seattle last 9 . They edge them out in almost every category too. So
White Sox to win $500 risking $550Comment -
damn those two back-to-back o7.5 heartbreakingly bad beats (the Tribe/A's last night and the Reds/Cubs today)
...material for a "Twilight Zone" episodeComment -
Yea and funny thing is if the WS will win i would be at 7-3 . Even if one of those would have hit i would have basically been at my goal. I am looking to come back here and get this win after that tough loss with the WS . I should be at 8-1 though but those damn 7.5 games really stung. Despite that if i get this win with the WS i will still be up .I am looking into some games for tonight.
The As you just have to laugh off at how insane it was they never hit the over. 5 Zillion walks and they fall short.Comment -
Update -Not only are the WS winning 3-0 in the 9th , 3 more outs and it is a no-hitter .Actually a perfect game .Last edited by captrobey; 04-21-12, 05:22 PM.Comment -
Ok there is the No hitter -what a nice way to hit my 10th pick overall. so that puts my total picks so far 7-3 . Yes it should be 9-1 lol oh well what can ya do . You know how bad a difference those 2 games made- Right now i am at $1450 - if those parlays would have hit i would be at $6900 . The WS would have been the other end of the parlay so it would have won. Oh well. Lets move on......
Ok - so right now we are at 7-3. If anyone is tailing me i hope you won some cash. If you are doing exactly what i am doing we are at $1450 . We just won with a no-hitter. So on to the next picks...
The first one is NBA and again i like the numbers overall. It is the Sixers /Pacers game. I like the pacers at -4.5 here's why...
Sixers are 3-6 ATS last 9 ... Here is the stat i like the Sixers are 5-11-1 last 17 ATS when playing Indiana. Since the pacers are at home i like them to cover the spread .So
Risking $1100 to win $1000
That leaves us with $350. Well, i think i will try a parlay with it since i like another game and go for the bigger hit. As long as Pacers cover we still come out ahead. I like the Phillies with Halladay on the mound. The juice is not that high for their Ace being out there . Plus the Padres are 1-12 SU last 13 against Philly. With their Ace on the mound i think it is a safe bet.... So...
Parlay for $350 the Phillies -143 and the Pacers -4.5 Risking $350 to win $785Comment -
Crappy 1st quarter for Pacers but long way to go .Comment -
Pacers up by 1 at half but they are playing like they should and should put sixers away 2nd half. They should be fired up for the 2nd half . Lets win this and then get the Phillies game.Comment -
Not looking good Pacers need to dominate 4th quarter down 7Comment -
Phew there is still hope gotta rule in OTComment -
Ok so that run is done. I actually hit with the Jazz last night for $1000. I will not count it of course but i hit with that OT win. So i have cash to work with. Anyway i an at 7-5 not counting the Jazz . I risked the $1000 with the $5000 that is still sitting in RW which i should not have done so i got lucky there .
I like the Cubs with the Over at 6.5 .Out of the last 7 5 have gone Over. So i am risking $600 to win $500Comment -
I think i will do a total of 100 picks. That way we will see where i am at after that pointComment -
Ok the next pick. So far the bases have been loaded 2xs and once with 1 out and no runs in that. But they did get a 2nd run on a big 2 out single so goin into the 4th we need 5 more runs with 2 in so far.
I am gonna risk $1100 on OKC at -1 . I know Kobe Kobe Kobe but i feel that he is not what he used to be and i feel OKC is the better team.
OKC risking $1100 to win $1000Comment -
3rd time with bases loaded . 2 outs though . Oops 3rd out figures. So 3 times bases loaded with no runs to show for it.Comment -
Another one of those games . So 3 times bases loaded and a chance with a guy on 3rd 1 out and he suicide bunts right back to pitcher instead of just trying for a fly ball or a ball just grounded to the right side. Lol at least theres still time left.Comment -
Finally a break . After that bad call at first there is that error that gave a run followed by another run. Too bad there should have been 3 runs because he was safe at first it looked. He would have scored but you know what-i will take 2 there. 3 more runs with plenty time left. And so far OKC is lookin good.Comment -
Here we go again LOL bases loaded a 4th time 0 outs. Can we score lol ...Comment
