    Hey...How many units are you up since opening this thread in January?  I just want to see how that profit/loss matches up with the statement by you:

    "I make more in a week than most people make in a year"

    "5k a unit at +10 units in a week is 50k" [sic]

    Especially since last week you LOST $90,000.

    How many units you up since January 1st?  Show us in plain sight.

    David price  is going to be angry and going to show the world why he's going to get mad max money and prove to Ausmus that he is worthy of getting that opening day start.  

    We need to hope the Os get his pitch count up and can feast off the middle relievers as I would be stunned if Detroit doesn't have the lead when price exits.

    Just checked the score....6-4 tigers.  

    Best to check the score after the game is done.  Definitely a whole lot less stressful.  Orioles will need to work hard to tie it up top of 9th.

    Normally I wouldnt watch a pre-season game but the combo of it being a 2 unit play, on MLB channel, the tigers stacked lineup, and David price pitching, it became a much watch 

    Preseason is hard to cap unless you know the lineups and pitching schedules .......tigers managed the game like they wanted to win where as it was just another game for Os.   Victor Martinez turned his ankle breaking up a DP and could barely walk, ( stunned they didn't take him out )but yet they kept him in and he hits game winning homerun.

    I hear ya.

    In my experience?  It's best to place your wager, let the play do its job and then check the score 2-3 hours later.

    A whole lot less stressful.  Over the years, regardless of how much you have on any game, you'll get used to it.

    Isn't it generally a bad idea to wager on preseason games? I don't know of many "pros" that wager on these kind of games so a bit surprised that you do considering you seem to take sports betting very seriously.

    I hear what you're saying.  I agree, preseason is tought...but then again, that's just my opinion.  The question ultimately lies in, how many pros DO you know?

    Take that number and compare it to the amount of pros you DON'T know and I'm sure there will be a wide gap (not saying definitely, but, I could make a calculated assumption, no?).  Same goes for me.

    My point is, to categorize all "pros" into one category is wrong.  What one "pro" may do, is not always going to be similar to what another "pro" will do.  I know an entire group of long term sports bettors that will never touch preseason mlb or nfl.  And I know another group, that say, they hit over 75% in preseason nfl and mlb.

    I know some pros that make a living strictly chasing under dog moneylines all year, for all sports and they make money every year.  I know some pros who are 100% against any kind of strictly chasing or strictly underdog money line betting (such as myself).

    My god, dude...10 k on a spring exhibition game?  WTF?

    How the hell could you get an honest prediction from a computer...how the hell does that make it thru the "filters"?  Against Price no less who was just declared the opening day starter a few days back over verlander...the play here was the tigers all the way.

    Fair response. I know and follow a few professional handicappers but you're right, there are many that I do not know. Just the general consensus seems to be that exhibition games are tricky to cap for obvious reasons and better to wait for the new season to begin. Fair play to those that can hit 75% in preseason NFL and MLB, they must know or have a lot of reliable information at their disposal to be highly accurate.

    Hey, it happens.  When young players are frustrated about losing a big game...that's what happens.  Some may call it a fix.....rigged...eh, it's just something that happens randomly.

    That's why you need to have a bankroll. And discipline.
