    If the Red Sawks strike please please Simpdog accept the forfeit like a good Canuck should.

    Spare them the Humiliation of another beat down.

    I had over 6. There was no scoring into the top of the fourth. I stopped watching at 3-3 in the bottom of the sixth when I had it in the can. Fucking 10-7 Padres. They covered -2.5. Almost 3 times the over. JFC. How the hell did that happen? 7 inning game as well. Crazy shit happening.

    I want to bet against the Mets live, but they're on a rain delay and the bets are locked.

    I missed this before game time.

    Sixtoed "Pete" Sanchez has great stuff, and was better than his line appeared in his first career start. Wacha had his moment in the sun a few years back, and is now garbage. Line closed at Miami +109 which was great value.

    Oh. It came through to me as "delay", and I thought it was a rain delay.

    Now I'm seeing postponed. I assume because of social protest.

    Did the game even start?

    I think all of this is very stupid, but whatever.

    At least I didn't miss a bet I wanted to make.

    Those are good bets regardless of outcome. Have the cardinals. Doesn’t look good. Didn’t like much tonight.

    *Cardinals mailed it that second game. Throwing in the towel tonight. Luckily didn’t put in the brew crew. Twilight zone tonight. Gonna work on the slate early tomorrow.

    I don’t like when gamblers blame all kinds of things for throwing them off. But with MLB we already need to factor in these 7 inning double headers, short season, record pitching injuries, COVID postponements ,etc. All while still trying to find a good line. Then the game gets cancelled for a protest. 2020, what a clusterfuck of a year. Hope to find some plays in the morning. Hopefully that’s it with the protests.

    Was hoping to find profit amidst the chaos. Honestly, this has been a frustrating year.

    Riddle me this:
    Why no overnight data or lines in MLB? Feels like somethings up but I can’t see why? This is an important part of my process and this doesn’t sit well with my autism


    This is probably good practice for the fall wave of COVID. Sigh

      JeffDime: I’m up early on east coast still no lines on my apps. Guess they are tired of refunding wagers. Shitty for the better of course. Overnight lines suck typically but it something to start with.

    This is where my hatred of social media is costing me cause I don’t follow anyone with a clue.

    I’m getting creeped out. I’m having a “no sports pandemic attack” like mid-April. I can’t go through that again.


    Gotta get my Korean Baseball muscles warmed up.

    PointsBet is losing its damn mind in Australia

    PointsBet Holdings Limited (PBH.AX)
    ASX - ASX Delayed price. Currency in AUD


    Up 92% today. Still climbing as I type. Aussie Aussie Aussie


    Edit:

    News

    In yet another marriage of sports media with the rising tide of legalized sports betting in the US, NBCUniversal and PointsBet today announced a multi-year partnership by which PointsBet becomes the official sports betting partner of NBC Sports.

    As part of the agreement, NBC Sports will provide PointsBet with year-round, multi-platform media and marketing opportunities across its portfolio of events. The company’s sports programming includes NBC Olympics, the Golf Channel, NBC Sports Regional Networks, and the Olympic Channel.

    The deal is part of a trend among network sports entities. ESPN has partnered with Caesars Entertainment and has a new Daily Wager program, while Fox has an ownership stake in betting service FoxBet via a deal with The Stars Group, a Canadian developer of online and mobile gaming technology. Sports betting is now legal in 18 states plus Washington, DC.

    I hear good things about the Lotte Giants.
    Great line on Lotte. They juice those Korean games up in Jersey and I’m still in a dispute over a “abandoned” game that FanDuel graded as a void for about 5 hours than changed to a loss. So ever since that “abandoned” game, I have abandoned Korean BB.

    What I noticed is the Yankees, fresh off a 5 game losing streak and a double header loss to the braves are +500 to win the World Series. Even on the dreaded Bovada they are +475. They have 5 fewer wins, but are tied in the loss column with Tampa at 11 even after the losing streak. You got to figure this is the best value you may get with a little over half the season left. It’s tempting. Worth a few bucks for me.

    As for golf, Rahm shit the bed yesterday at the BMW so time to jump on a new horse. Only 3 guys barely under par. Rory is +800 in the live betting most places. He shot even par which is a log jam for 4th place, was a great score for sure. Will have to pick up the putting as usual and stay away from the crooked numbers. He may be getting his form back just in time for the Tour championship next week he won last year. Had 4 birdies and 4 bogeys first round. Good value there.

    Yanks -143 First Game (7 innings). A dodo bird could make this pick but the number will only inflate and who else but playing the Mets to end the losing streak.

    I wonder if we are playing today? We will see.

    Yankees isn’t listed. Most others are. I may skip this

    Price is starting to move lower. I found it at -132. Something seems up. Toss it, stick with the gut. Didn’t see that happening.
