Chop, sorry to steal your thread, but I like the yankees tonight. Cabrera is wild, and yankees will draw walks after walks. It's yankee's home game, the strike/ball calls always goes against the visitng team. Cabrera's may overpower most hitters, but not yankees lineup.

Yankees -1.5 1 at +122. 1 unit.

Thats a very interesting game. It could go either way.

I think expect way too much out of yourself. You said you have had a number of winning years in a row (maybe four but I can't remember what you said) Your human, your going to lose sometimes. Nostradamus was considered one of the greatest at seeing the future but even he made hundreds maybe even thousands of predictions that never came true. You can't see the future, if you could you'd be a billionare. Do what you are comfortable doing and just remember the first rule of betting, don't bet what you can't afford to lose. Have fun and if you win great but if you lose don't beat yourself up over it.

Chop.. I think your early read on the Nationals was correct. I too had their offense rated quite highly. I think they hit nothing more than a team slump. Hope you didn't overadjust,. I still believe they could be a .500 team.

Thats the danger of going against your initial feeling too early. I knew WASHINGTON was much better than they were playing. I guess the only thing I can do right now is leave them alone altogether.

chop...

over the years....it seems when i take a team and they lose....then i go against them the next night....they win....then i get caught up in the flip flop effect and can't seem to pick the right side ....these teams i try to stay away from...until they can put a little run together....

i basically did this (one play per day) from nov 29 to feb 26th... worked really good... ill return to that someday......

the only thing is, you have to bump the amount of the wager up...

I thought about that but a 3 unit play is a 3 unit play.

i never understood how somebody could like one game for 1 unit and another for 3 units.. why not just put all 4 units on the one he liked most..

really, when i said "bump up" the amount of the wager, i was referring to that, only if you were to stay with the "one per day" for a long while, which your not...

if im handicapping, i can live with and actually choose the "one per day". however, when playing a system, you must follow the system guidelines and play whatever that calls for..

occamsrazor, plays only one (or very, very few) a day,,,, all the time and doesnt waver..

Grow up Trek. He dont give a crap you do not like one play a day.
Good luck Chop. You will work your way out of the funk. Just a matter of time. I see alot of quality cappers struggling. Were just a few weeks in. A long long way to go. Just work you way out of it Bud.

Ok here is an example why some people like to use stars or units to differentiate plays.



Lets say I cap the Cav's game over Washington and I determine that my line is Cleveland -10.5. The line opens 5 and I say wow, that is a pretty big edge, so I will assign a top play of 3*s because I think the line is a whopping 5 points off.


Same example where I have the line capped at 10.5 and the line opens 8.5. I say wow I have about a 2 point edge so I will assign a 1* play because I have what I consider a nice edge.
