These two teams together are an under bettor's dream, provided the pitchers are reasonable and the line isn't too low.
Boston/Texas... well, 1 run after 2 innings, but the bases were left loaded. We'll see.
Would be nice to hang another 4-1 on the books.
Nope, Boston/Texas became a scoring-fest in the middle innings, and it went from looking good to being a 5-5 game, making me lose.
Writing off the White Sox losing 8-3 in the late innings.
3-2 day, though the +140 should put me a little bit over 1 unit for the day.
This LeBron James kid is going to be a good one some day
Druff can finally shut up about that woulda coulda shoulda Craptors bet .... woulda just got LeGOAT'd in a major way lol
Raptors peaked too early.
The city of Toronto should bribe Lebron to move to a Western Conf team.

I've talked before about that stats service I use, and how they sell picks I don't buy.
I am able to see how their picks did the following day, and they keep a running record. To their credit, they are honest about their record and don't manipulate things if they aren't doing well. The only semi-shady thing they do is always choose the best line from like 10 different books as their "official" line, which is kinda bullshit because the average bettor doesn't have that many options.
Anyway, they're getting their ass handed to them so far in MLB. Something like 7.5 units down after about 100 picks.
I'm not killing it in MLB, but I am 6.2 units up after 74 picks, and have been in the black for all but one day of the season.
I wonder how other MLB handicappers are doing this year. Seems like an odd year in some ways.
Is Toronto gonna reel off four in a row now?
I don't really know if he would be happy with me outing this... but poster limitles is actually from Canada.
Last-minute bet on 10:10am game:
Toronto (M. Estrada) at Tampa (Archer) - Under 8 -110
There were 3 "Trapper John" games today.Quote:

The second was Pittsburgh +112 on the road at Milwaukee. Crappy Chad Kuhl was up against the surprisingly effective Chase Anderson. So you can get a slight dog on Kuhl on the road against a better Milwaukee team and pitcher? Huh? Indeed, the Pirates are up 9-0. Considered this one, but ended up skipping it.
The last one was the under on Oakland/Baltimore. Featuring the bad Andrew Triggs versus the horrendous (9.64 ERA) Alex Cobb. It's 1-0 in the 3rd right now.
Three games which would appear to be obvious choices to the casual bettor (two overs and a side bet on Pittsburgh), and two decisive losses plus one on pace to lose.
Betting MLB baseball, everyone.
Anyway, I'll take my 1-0 day and be done.
Picked up +0.909 units today.
GRAND TOTAL: 39-34-2, +7.109 units
Overs: 1-3
Spread (-1.5): 2-1
Unders: 24-17-2
Sides: 12-13
Odd line alert. Celtics up 3-0 and are -1000 to win the series. Cavs up 3-0 and are -5000
Seems like a free $100 on Boston (my max loss per bet is $1000). No team has EVER lost up 3-0 in NBA history.
:whynot
No games til 4pm PDT today.
Looking at two unders:
Cincinnati (again)
San Diego
I will post the lines if and when I actually bet them.
Okay here we go.
Getting cooler on the SD under so that may not happen.
But here's the one I'm definitely going with:
Mets (Conlon) at Cincinnati (Bailey) - Under 9.5 -106
Public money right now is very much on the over.
Will Cubs fail continue? Marlins +205 looks tempting
It is tempting. I was close to picking that one. Jarlin Garcia has had a hell of a start to 2018 so far, too.Quote:

I'm really interested to see if the 76ers will get swept as 4, 4, 8, and 7 point favorites
cubs played v late last night in stl.Quote:

Soooooooo my Reds under pick turned out to be pretty bad.
It was done by the 5th inning.
I did predict correctly that the Marlins would lose, so I'm glad I wasn't tempted by the +205 and Jarlin Garcia pitching. Just had the gut feeling that one was gonna get crushed. I know it's not amazing to predict a -2xx favorite is going to win, but I really wasn't feeling that one.
Anyway, I'm not picking anything else tonight. No Padres under. I'll be back tomorrow.
