Real Tough day. I honestly didnt see this coming. I'm gonna start flat betting these chases, since they are hitting at a decent rate.

Colorado Rockies -1.5 -115(pinnacle)
quick question mj, in the few system plays with minus odds are you playing to win the number of units or are you risking the listed number of units? not just higher than the -115 cutoff, but also the cubs play today, for instance

I'm playing it safe. I'm gonna flat bet/play to win one unit. I just want to protect the profit i gained from this system incase this starts to go downhilll. Its a possible -8 unit loss tonight gotta be smart about this. Good LuckA crappy night...that's how it goes some time.
We can still make a profit on this set however....or we could possibly have a 8 unit loss...or something not that bad in between.
Good luck tonight...we need it.
Philly @ Chicago Cubs ML -104 GM 2 for 2 units
Pittsburgh @ Colorado -1.5 -125 GM 2 for (risk?) 2 units :think2:
The Colorado match up brings up a new issue...what do we do when GM 2 is > -115 which is our cut off?
Thoughts?
I'm thinking we could adjust the risk amount to 2 units keeping the system risk levels the same, and keeping some symmetry to the record.
Or we could just flat out cancel them and take the game 1 loss.
I'm leaning toward the first option...maybe somebody else has a better idea?
I think the correct chase amount would be to risk 2.3 units on Colorado tonight if you can't get it -115 or better. GL.
Correct...for ease of posting I post it as 1 unit and 2 units so I don't have to fiddle around with the juice each time...but that is how I am scoring it.
I think people are getting too anal about some of this stuff...there is no right or wrong way yet.
I'm surprised the Phillies would be a play against since they're away record is 33-19 as of today. The Cubs actually have a similar record, seems to go against the BEST home team vs the WORST away team theory. I think the Giants hosting the Dodgers last week was a similar situation. Maybe this has been covered before, I haven't read back any pages.
