Plus 130 to plus 115 late at Pinny today on Houston

[TheGeneral+]

And the starter for Houston went down after 1. Late money looks good at the moment.

 

[TheGeneral+]

Braves 5-5

Not looking the best now.

If Houston happens to lose here I might be posting in the "Whats the most violent thing you have done after losing a bet" thread. The behind the plate ump has already screwed Houston 3 times since I have been watching the game, but good luck to you whoever you have General.

I fancied Atlanta but not the price so bought them on Tradesports when they were down 3-1. Thinking of covering my stake in case they don't make it.

Heading to 9 5-5 after 5-1 Stros.

Woody what kind of price did you get on that wager? I have never played at tradesports before.

 

[Blaze]

G..D... this is going to be a bad beat.

 

[Blaze]

yep

 

[TheGeneral+]

6-5 braves after down 5-1 going into bott 9.

General, I like the "trade" interface for in game betting as I find it easier to comprehend. As I'm sure you know the price varies from 0 to 100 with 1 contract being $10 at 100. There is an 8c per contract total commission.

I bought at 26, covered most of my stake at 50 and now will leave the rest as its 6-5 bottom of ninth.

BTW the market maker provided 500 contracts ($5000) either way on this game and total trades were 8471.

I feel like Roy Munson must have felt like in Kingpin. Its all good though I'll survive another day. good call Woody

Woody so your saying you got the Braves at almost 4-1 odds at the end of 4ings when they were down 3-1. I'm not calling you a liar but i find that hard to believe, but i have been drinking tonight so i appoligize if i am wrong, but that seems like to good of a price.

 

[Woody0]

Buy at 26 to win 100 is almost 3-1. Or not counting commission it was +285.

A good price but not out of line with similar scores at that point in the game. They generally play like that and the potential for a team to make a comeback is not usually factored into the price.

Actually that's one of my favourite plays. Take a favorite that won't collapse when behind and buy if they fall behind within the first 5 innings.

I get it now, nice play, I might have to take a look at tradesports next time I reup
