and to answer your naive question, if I am fortunate enough to have the series go to Game 5, I can play, say 6 units on the DBacks and lay approximately -120 is my guess.....therefore if the Cubs win, I will win only 2.8 units (10 - 7.2) and if the Cubs lose I lose about 6 units (12 - 6)...not a great position but I can reduce my exposure if I feel so inclined.

with all due respect gamedude. that cubs writeup was awesome. you layed 10 grand on it.
but that call sucked. you, and i and a lot of others are going down. it taught me you can't cap baseball with huge writeups like a college essay. matchups are not tet for tet. it/s a game of passion and drive. arizona has it now.
Hey KaplanDUDE! You're a MORON!
Cap your own games and stop BITCHING!!!

GH- You forgot to tell everyone that you are not a psychic. WTF?
Disregard these posters - anyone who blindly follows anyone elses opinion is weak, ignorant and deserves to lose. If one has no personal opinion, don't bet. In the end, responsibility lies with the one laying the bet, not a well written opinion by a third party.
I too lost on the Cubbies last night but through no fault of yours. Your write up was very detailed and thoughtful and reaffirmed by position on the side. Did I like dropping some change - hell no....
But at least I know that it was my decision to lay down $550, not anyone elses. Keep up the good work and best of luck to the Cubbies the remainder of the series.

GH- i am sorry to see there are such ass holes on here. Some of us appreciate the writeups you provide. You are the first poster I look for in bases everyday. I put money on the series after your thread, But guess what -games and series' dont always go the way we predict or lean. This is gambling, Nobody has a crystal ball. These haters need to cap for themselves and not bitch at you or anyone else if they pull the trigger after reading some advice. Give me a break and keep up the good work!!

Thanks for the good words most of you.....heck, with the line so inflated at Wrigley, I could make small hedges even in Game 3 and probably get +180 on the Dbacks at game time and in Game 4, I could probably get +200 or more against Zambrano.....I am sure I won't do anything in Game 3, but there are definitely mechanisms available to reduce risk for anyone that wants...u certainly can't reduce most risk, but you can mitigate.
