New to your plays.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
You stand to make $100 per team if they don't get swept in a series? And you don't play 2 or 4 game series.
Is that all of it in a nutshell?

no 2 game series.  4 game series can get expensive if it goes to 4, so for me that's just personal preference - but you have to keep an eye out on the 4 game interleague series b/c sometimes they will be a 2/2 home/home which should be avoided. 

and yes, one unit per series.

Thanks TheReal
I'm sure there were more sweep than usual this past weekend.
Cards-DBacks-Rangers-TB-&WhiteSox
So how did you end up making out this weekend?
25 Winners $2500
5 Losers I'm guessing around -$800 for each.
Is that about right.
I've seen your total for the season so I know a
bad weekend like this doesn't happen too often.

not sure why that didn't format right.  last series started 6/2 and i had
DET, CIN, NYM, CUBS, SEA, CO (away).  4-2 on day one.  chased those 2 on saturday and went 2-0.  so up 6 units on the series.

I'm not going with Cincy or LAD - don't see a ton of value there.

ATL****
MIL****
CUBS
HOU (away)****
OAK

Ones that start tomorrow:

NYY
TB
DET
TX
AZ

Thoughts?

that TX series against NYM that starts tomorrow is a 2 gamer.  FYI.

as for Cincy i have them at .500 even at home and STL is .480 on the road, and  3-7 their L10.  CIN is a dog today, so there was the value for me on that one. 

LAD was just a stat play with a little gut involved.  LAD is .603overall; .724H; WAS is .670A.  when the Home/Away isn't an "AND" scenario (i.e. H>.500 AND A<.500) i go with the better of the two.  plus LAD is coming home from a 7 game road stretch.  WAS is on leg three of a west coast swing of 3 games@SF; 3@OAK; and now 3@LAD.

Lasts night I took MIL/OAK/CHC/HOU/ATL/WAS. Glad to see you (Big_tone) on 5 of the 6. Washington has only been swept once on the road in 8 road series. Taking a chance on them.

Haven't looked at tomorrow yet. Will look when I get home and chime in before tomorrow's games.

Looks like the Realdutch is hijacking your thread. Lol. Answering questions that were directed at you. No disrespect Real, though you should start your own thread, so you can respond to your followers, not someone else's. BOL regardless, fellas

The Nats get 2 attempts before they get Kershaw. With GIO/Scherzer on the rubber 1st 2 games, I'll take my chances.

no hijack intended. 

just here to share info. 

i saw a style of play that Tone proposed.  tracked and i am playing it.

i see no harm in bouncing ideas about said style off of each other.

You straight up answered a question that was proposed to Big_Tone. Definitely no harm in bouncing ideas off each other, but let the dude have his glory. That's all I'm saying. Let him respond to others questions. Or start your own thread. :)

I was thinking about this series but decided to take my chance with WAS. 

CIN is .500 exactly @ home and STL 12-13 on the road... this does not fit the system Tone laid out. Good Luck with that STL play!

I see CIN is .500 but they are missing some key hitters like Scheduler out 

decided to take my chances with them

No worries about hi-jacking. We're all betting very similar, sometimes off by a team or two. To be honest, if someone responds asking what or why we're betting a certain way i'd just re-direct them to page 1 haha. 

Also, good looking out on the TX series...

The WAS/LAD series scares me because i don't want to have to bet against Kershaw, at home, laying 1-9.
