Experiment not over. Been at work. Like all three of those games. Really like the tigers game. I most likely will make a play on that. Yesterday was a bad day

Cool...on em both also!  Let's get it...

Situation...you joined in Feb...so not sure if you saw beaverfan's thread in college baskets this past year...it reminds me of this thread...he started out posting a system and then slowly people started pitching in with input and help...it was a great example of what the forums of this site should be about...everyone pitching in and helping out...hopefully we can do that here and win some money in the process!

There was also arguments and bashing but overall that was kept to a minimum, because the overall focus was everyone trying to contribute and help to accomplish a goal...

Hes getting criticized because it just doesn't work. Books LOVE when people try "systems " like this. Anybody that has been betting for more then a year or anyone that has a brain KNOWS  this doesn't work. Sure just like any other method of betting it can get hot and may win for even a few weeks. I can bet all the teams that begin with the letter "C" and "M" for a couple weeks and it might go 90%. It doesnt mean its a winning system.

WHATTEAMYOULIKE

Basically we are taking a couple games each day and betting the -1.5 on both sides...the trick is to try to locate games that are not going to end as a one run game...if it ends a one run game we lose both wagers...anything else we win...thats the short of it in a nutshell...read through the other contributive posts to see what we have done so far and just ignore the naysayers and bashers...most of them lose money on a continual basis and are just negative about anyone doing anything positive on here...it is easy to ignore them...

Angels up by 4 in the first. I will update my overall record tonight and how much a $100 bettor would be up. Most likely going to make a play on the Orioles game also

The best way, I have found, is to cheer for the team ahead to get farther ahead...sucks because I am a Tigers fan and now have to hope the Angels blow them out!

I have a job and a kid unlike you. If you call losing money more productive then yes you are .... If you make a thread on a system, be ready to receive criticism. Especially if its a REALLY OLD IDEA that has already been proven not to work. Don't be a baby and get all defensive when people don't agree with you.

7-0 Angels I love it! I just took Baltimore 65$ to win 89.05 and Twins 40 to win 68. With this one i'm pretty much rooting for the orioles.

You say its an experiment. Wouldn't you want someone to tell you that your experiment wont work before you try it. I compare it to my 3 year old and a hot stove. I tell her dont touch it because it will hurt. This system is about as common sense as the hot stove analogy. Dont try this experiment it will "hurt"

Until someone invents a childproof stove that doesn't hurt...maybe this hasn't worked in the past because people didn't devise the right method on which games to choose...maybe it is a system that can work...doesn't hurt to be positive...positive thinkers are the ones who get things accomplished...negative thinkers and complainers are no fun and an annoyance...plus it adds wrinkles and it's bad for your blood pressure...now be gone, no need for us here...go warn the chasers on this site that they are doing something that has already been proven not to work and leave us alone...
