Just the fact that you could lose 4 parlays in a row and then hit the 5th and recoup what you lost PLUS more...amazing.
Would you consider raising the starting bet from 100 to 200 after a certain amount of winnings?
I could have done it that way 100... 200... 400... 800... 1600... if I did it that way, I would already have been up by almost 11,000 by now, instead of being up 2,023. To each his own, they can try it that way. I have already tried it that way in the past. I have lost 11 straight RL Underdog Parlays at one point. So to me it was great returns but too much money to lay out in case of a really bad streak and murdered the bankroll. So I elected to go with a limited 5-win chase strategy instead. Moneymaker and at the same time protects the bankroll. The 11,000+ would have been great right now compared to the 2,023 so far, but at least I have peace of mind that the bankroll is protected.
Final Score:
Pittsburgh 2 Cincinnati 1
Washington 8 Seattle 3
Win +363
RL Underdog Parlay 5-win chase YTD 24-24 +2023
Tomorrow's risk amount is 100.

I didn't take into consideration Boston and Tampa Bay. Odorizzi has been struggling as of late, and the Red Sox pitcher has been lit up lately as well. The Red Sox slaughtered The Rays last night by four runs. If you are a gambling man, the choice is The Rays, but it is a very dangerous bet because we don't know if Odorizzi is still struggling. The best play on this is to lay off the game because the -170 ML is too much juice on this one. Looking on the paper and the matchup The Rays should win by more than 1 run, but as you know, and I've been taking RL Underdogs for my parlays there is always that "bad luck" factor to consider, or the pitcher is just off his game for some reason, and other stuff.
There are some interesting matchups like Wacha for the Cubs later on tonight, but they are winning the first game of the doubleheader and it's hard to bet on them to win both games of the doubleheader on the road against their archrival The Cardinals, I mean a bottom cellar team sweeping a doubleheader on the road against a playoff contender/division leader contender. I like the matchup with Central Division leader Milwaukee Brewers with Fiers going against solid Peavy of San Francisco. Strasburg has struggled on the road for Washington this year, but he has been solid at home. I like that play as well because even though you have solid pitching from Seattle, Washington bats are alive, and Strasburg has been solid on his last three games.I'm thinking of taking Milwaukee and Washington straight up for tonight. This is just my opinion of course.

Sorry man I woke up too late on Sunday. I would have liked Seattle on today's game simply because Iwakuma is pitching and pitching at home. I like that guy and would rarely go against him. It is too bad Tanaka of the Yankees is out for the season. Earlier this season just before Tanaka's injury. I remember doing this thing I called "The Pearl of the Orient" double down plays for the week. I would look at the advance pitching rotation schedule and see when Seattle's Iwakuma, New York Yankees's Tanaka, and Texas's Darvish are pitching in the week. Whoever pitches first I would lay down the money, and then if I win, I would double down both the winning money along with the initial money layout on the next pitcher playing a game, and then if I win that, I would lay out the winning money of both games along with the first initial money layout and bet on the third guy. Then I start the process again the following week. I had very favorable results particularly in the beginning of June to the middle of June and the beginning of July to the near the end of July.
As for Atlanta, on paper they are the team to bet on a game against Miami, but I have rarely touched Atlanta's games this year simply because they haven't really produced runs as much this year. Solid pitching but their hitting has taken a downturn.
