Dogs and RL's Only!

From now on I'm going to be picking Dogs and Runlines only for the rest of the Baseball season and see how it works out.

Looking over the card now, be back with some plays if I see any for tonight.

BOL today everyone!

I only play runlines. I always make sure I get more than 1-1 odds. wether its a fav or underdog I always take them -1.5 runs for the most part I have to be right about 41% to breakeven so far im around 58-61% but even if i take a huge streak of bad luck and say i drop to 45% im still ahead. I think the thing that gets most sports bettors in trouble is there like I can pick 75% of the time a play but they are taking favs on moneylines average price is usually about -160. So if u have a bad streak that will more than cripple ur Bankroll.

I HATE to lay the hugh juice with MLB, but, last night I bet 2 games on the RUNLINE and both won their games by 1 run and I lost, but, if I would have bet the lines I would have won those 2 games. So instead of being 2-2 last night I was 0-4 and you talk about busting up a bankroll!!!! I lost 14.79*

how much do u risk of ur bankroll per bet % wise. I go with 3% per bet. Play anywhere from 2-6 games a day been plus every week. week meaning betting from monday-sunday. I always recalculate my bet everday so on monday i have 1000 and say the next day I have 1050 I take 3% from that. Likewise if I would have went from 1000 to 950 I would do 3% of 950. I have a larger bankroll than most people start with or use so 3% is enough for me. I start with 5000 each yr. But if u start with say 100 or so then yea 3% is borderlined for even being worth betting

Yeah, you will most definitely get busted up with the 1 run games from time to time but the team more often than not will win by 2 or more or lose outright over a whole season.

Here are my plays for tonight. The fade picks were working well but I have to stop that now because I hated making a fool of myself. Let's get some winners tonight Fellas!!

Listed Only

Washington Nats (Day) +119 over the Cubs.......2*

St. Louis cards/NY Mets under 8.5 +120...............2*

Baltimore (Bedard) +113 over the Red Sox...........2*

BOL Tonight!
