I am using this forum simply as a means to keep track of this. I will not be actually betting all the underdogs. My friends and I wondered what the outcome of such a system would be so I am doing it. Each game we will 'wager' 1 Unit on the underdog throughout the entire playoffs. Again, this is a system I am testing for my own curiosity and will NOT be following this system. Please leave your unnecessary and negative comments at the door!  Thanks!

1 Unit = $100

Wednesday, October 06, 2010

Tampa Bay Rays (-139) vs. Texas Rangers (+128)

TEX (Risk $100 to win $128) 

Philadelphia Phillies (-270) vs. Cincinnati Reds (+245)

CIN (Risk $100 to win $245) 

New York Yankees (-184) vs. Minnesota Twins (+169)

MIN (Risk $100 to win $169) 


Bets I would consider today however would be:

Texas + 128 (Lee)

Philly RL -1.5 (+105)

NYY/MIN Over 7.0 Runs Scored.

What a way to start the MLB playoffs. A no-no from the LEGEND Doc Halladay. As a Toronto native I couldn't be more happy for the guy. He deserves it. It was so intense watching those 7th,8th,9th innings. Wow! 

Anyways, yesterdays results

Wednesday, October 06, 2010

Tampa Bay Rays (-139) vs. Texas Rangers (+128)

TEX (Risk $100 to win $128) 

Philadelphia Phillies (-270) vs. Cincinnati Reds (+245)

CIN (Risk $100 to win $245) 

New York Yankees (-184) vs. Minnesota Twins (+169)

MIN (Risk $100 to win $169) 

--Underdog Record-- 1-2 (-0.72 Units)


On a side note I went 3/3 on my suggested picks. I only played the first two because I was out drinking by the start of the Yanks game.

Texas + 128 (Lee)

Philly RL -1.5 (+105)

NYY/MIN Over 7.0 Runs Scored.

For those that watched the games yesterday, we witnessed the latest umpiring disgrace that dramatically changed the outcome of the yanks/twins game (should have been a called third strike on Lance Berkman for the second out of the seventh inning). Year after year we have umpire miscues and the MLB does nothing to change that. Brutal. Anyways..... Dogs have not been barking very loud yet.

Sorry for the delayed update (not that too many care I'm sure). I'm a Canuck and it was our Thanksgiving. Nice 3day long weekend and still feeling the effects at work this morning. Wait... its the afternoon 

Cheers

On second thought I am not going to try and figure out (by reviewing each game again) what odds I used were. 

On to today's lone game. Win or lose dawgs still be a barkin'!

Tampa Bay Rays (-115) vs. Texas Rangers (+108)

TEX (Risk $100 to win $108) 

--Underdog Record--  7- 7 (.500) (+1.44 Units)
