Giving this a try...

[TwigTop!]

Just to keep track of my plays...best bet for all of you is to fade I am sure. Only one way to find out.

Starting Bank Roll $900

Each unit is $25.

Lots of defense today!!!

1 U Reds Under 8 -115
1 U Detroit Under 8 -125
2 U Arizona Under 8 E

Good luck buddy! Of course Boston can't hit. But all these parks are launching pads. Especially Cincy in the daytime!

Go get em!

Hung on for the last one.

Better than a kick in the sack!

Did you count juice in your total? How many units on the play? Hard for people to chime in or follow if you post 1 minute before the start...

I know, Sorry about that. Was running around and wanted to get that in. About to post other plays for the day. I will try and post earlier.

I lost the first 2 plays yesterday, each was betting 25$, then I won the 2 unit play at even money. So I netted to zero yesterday.

St. Louis over today is a $25 bet to win $25.

 

[packer2012]

I did not even remember seeing any units or +/- money on yesterday. You are saying you are just risking one $25 unit?

 

[TwigTop!]

Thanks for all the feedback...I will get this right I swear.

Look at my first post. I said a unit is $25, then I had a 1U, 1U, and 2U play yesterday.

All my posts(like St. Louis today) will be one unit unless I put something else in front of it.

 

[TwigTop!]

2U Braves over 8.5 -115
1U Rockies under 9 -115
1U National under 7 -120
1U Angels under 8 -110

Again, best bet is to fade...been sucking all season. Just posting so all can see. Either way. GL all!

No worries. I think you are risking 25 regardless of it being a favorite or dog.... and that is the confusion for people. Generally, when people play 1 unit on a -110 game, they risk 1.1 units to win 1 unit. And when people play +110 or +150 they put 1 unit down to win 1.1 or 1.5.

So in your case, some may see $25 risked at -125 (Detroit game from yesterday) as being a 31.50 bet to win 25.

BOL today TT

 

[TwigTop!]

Went 3-1-1 (my book called the Rockies game a push since it didn't go 9 innings)
+2.4 Units.

Anyway, busy all day so only had time to look at one.

1U White Sox Over 9 -105

I dont care how many hits Noesi limited the Dodgers to, he is still horrible. Tigers be able to get runs without Cabrera here.

He still would win less than 1 unit if he only risked $25. Either way you can't go (1-2) with those odds in day 1 and break even. It doesn't work that way.

Hey Buddy.....

Keep working at keeping your units low until football (or whatever you prefer comes around).

Obviously you are not an experienced baseball bettor..... "(my book called the Rockies game a push since it didn't go 9 innings)"

What you quoted is an iron-clad rule in bases.... so your inexperience really sticks out. Good to be low on your units. Betting all these totals and not knowing how they work is scary.

Best of luck, Sir!

 

[TwigTop!]

1-0 +.95 units. Not how I thought the over would be reached, but I'll take it!
5-3-1 +3.35 Unites overall

Today:
1U Arizona OVER 9 -115

Should have a couple more later. Thanks for all your help guys! I am new, so all advice is much appreciated. Anyway, GOODLUCK TO ALL!
