I sure dislike betting on shitty teams. And the Cubs are a shitty team.

BTW-Hook, did you by chance take a look at the 2nd bet on Boston if they lose the 1st game. If betting 100.00, you would have had to lay over a dime to get back the original 100.00. Holy S. I had the 1st game -2.90.

You bring up two great points:

Careful with teams that have high juice. It can sure make for an expensive chase if it goes to the last game of the series. You can do one of three things here: (1) play -1 to lessen the juice, but you are susceptible to the push, or (2) play a less amount than usual, or (3) skip the series and not chance it.

Also, it's hard chasing crappy teams. If you don't feel comfortable, then just skip these as well.

Essentially, it's not a bad idea to use some discretion in making these plays.

Chase is simple you either hope a team does not lose 4 games in a row or win 4 in a row-not rocket science

but this can apply to any team or teams on the board--
I would never lay 290-Play RL must better value than juice -playing high juice -You may win a few but teams that are a 250 Fav lose every day--

Just an update

Doesn't look like there are any plays today. However, if the Angels can get to -145 or higher then they become a play. Keep an eye out

They have a ways to go over here @ -1.37. Late game, I guess there may be time, eh?

I'm showing -138/-139/-135

Doesn't look like it's going to qualify

Unfortunately, I was out yesterday so I couldn't post Toronto as a play. However, the parameters have been disclosed so everyone should've known to play it. I'm going to go ahead and update the record below for tracking purposes.
