Which do you recommend? Well, kind of a stupid question since you flat bet. LOL. Let me rephrase. Why do you prefer flat betting over the other method? Limiting your risk, I guess? Then again, that also limits the reward. More controlled risk, I suppose? Curious to hear your insight.
Flat betting is something I have always done. I'll admit Loaded I don't have much knowledge or insight into risk to win betting because I have never done it nor considered it until now. I suppose I like knowing how much I can afford to lose per day rather than thinking of how much I could win per day. The pessimist approach haha

European Directors Fredrick Fellini, Ingmar Bergman, & Lina Wertmuller were very trendy back then
Guess my age is showing haha
Macwestie, I have only recently, say the last couple of years got into Ingmar Bergman movies, but its taken me by storm. I have watched in that time more Bergman movies than I care to admit. I'm afraid I haven't seen much Fellini except his 8 1/2. I'm totally unfamiliar with Lina Wertmuller. Liv Ullman recently did a documentary about her time with Ingmar, which I haven't seen yet. I imagine you must have been a great photographer to get jobs shooting Liv and co.

I knew I was in for a rough night as all the lines had shifted markedly away from my picks. WAS were kinda fortunate to get over the line, so I'll take a 2-2 day. I don't like to think of what may have been so I will hold my tongue about LAD's 9th innings last night.
Very small card today. I suggest you take a look at Loaded's plays, but not too close because he is highly flammable. Sick day yesterday Loaded

1 unit each
WAS -133 COL -121
I feel like more action today, so I may tail or cap an early game or and/or increase the units on the above plays if lines go well.

Ya glad to see a lot of the guys cash yesterday. I must say, Friday's have been notoriously bad for me, so I hope I can look past that and stay in the plus. Another rock solid day for you. Both convincing winners. Interested to see what you got in store today. Best of luck bud

Reeeaaaaaallm... Looks good bud. Glad to see you're on the Jays. Last time we bet Jays, you cashed and I pushed (since I had -1), so today we're both cashing. Juicy indeed, but don't matter if they're all winners haha. Just trying to stay positive. Nice value with PHI F5. I sacrificed some good plus money by playing the +0.5 (in the case of a tie). Hope Hamels continues to lock it down and Phills put up a run or two. Best of luck as always sir

Got home a short while ago - disgusted lol. Certainly didn't expect that out of Stroman. Looks like we both had an off night. I kinda had a bad feeling about today, especially after seeing 9:11 on the clock (ya, I can be superstitious at times). Gonna look through some of tomorrow's games, if I can keep my eyes open. Hopefully the weekend calls for a bounce back. Some time off is good. Not even one game? Or does that defeat the whole purpose of a break? Haha. Nah enjoy your weekend bud. What's important is that you're staying disciplined and having a solid year.

You faired ok Loaded, if I'm not mistaken. I got ripped a new one. I had too many plays with too much juice. Still I'd take 19-10 every day of the week. I should have stayed with the system and the PHI ML, but who knew that PHI would lose the F5 and HOU too but win the FG. MIA left so many runners on base. TOR had no chance. What the heck, I'll plug on but with fewer plays. Look forward to seeing what you got today bud.

Ya I hear ya. Seems to be tough deciding whether to play F5 or FG. You would think that it's wise to play F5 if the team has an inferior bullpen and possibly on the road but it doesn't always work out like that. It worked for me a few days ago when I played ARI F5 and won but they ended up losing the FG by a run, then we both lost yesterday with PHI F5 so. Anyhow, I like your 3-pack for today. Let's get em back bud!
