been watching you the last few days and I think you're doing pretty well.
What's your win/loss record? the graphics are cool too!

I view this as a losing day, although it was ascent...

just curiousn not trying to be a dick but how do you grade your bets?

the way i was taught

2 units = TO WIN 2 UNITS ON THE FAVORITE
2 units = TO BET 2 UNITS ON THE UNDERDOG

so tonight:

red sox -127 2.54 to win 2... +2 units
yankees +110 2 units to win 2.2..... -2 units

break even night
