    Had my best day and biggest score ever in betting baseball today! In fact, I had only bet 3 of my 10 predictions and that play took some major BALLS. Read on...

    Actually I had a pretty good run in betting parlays recently, turned $200 into $2K+, then $4K, then back to a little over 2K. Missed out on some big parlays by very little, paying out HUGE. So I figured it was time to do or die and shove the rest of my balance in.

    First I go on and make a 3-team parlay for $850 (Philly Un7, LA Un6, Sea Un6). That's right, who has the BALLS to put two Under 6's in one big parlay? Then I figure I can't just sweat out 11.5 hours of baseball only to lose by one game/run. So I decide to shove all but $300 of my balance on Philly Under, just so I can salvage a little profit in the first 3 hours of my marathon in case I lose any of the 6's. And to at least not having to deposit again if I lose the first game.

    The remaining $300 I was going to make a parlay that included 5 of the other 7 predictions, including Detroit on the Over. But I thought fuck it. I was glad I didn't for a while until that game came out with a miracle 7-run 8th inning to cover. All other 4-games came through easy.

    Should have had $7K more than what I have now.

    Did not break a sweat in any of the three games. It was as easy as it gets...

    Philly started off with a 2-0 lead in the 1st, a score that I usually prefer over most non-scoreless scores early in the game. Oakland scores 1 in the 3rd to make me sweat a little but batters were just dropping like flies. Next update: 3-1 Philly in the 6th with Halladay cruisin'.

    The other two game started off with 4 scoreless innings and no inning produced more than 1 run at a time. The only fear was potential infinite-overtime, and even that I knew I was way ahead mathematically.

    What a great feeling to be on vacation in a park, pitching and batting by the lake with friends, playing soccer and frisby, doing a bbq while seeing money being printed for you through your iPhone.

    I know I always come in here to rant and whine about my bad luck. But here's a brag post for a day that more than made up for my season and possibly locked in a profitable season. Probably jinxed myself too, but then I don't believe in jinxing.

    Considering the whole forum is going apeshit over 53%, a medal sounds about right.

    Nice picks, HB.

    Sounds like a 'recipe for disaster'.  You did have a nice day of course, but I wouldn't be surprised if you lost your profits plus 'some' next time you decide to go 'all-in'.  Just not a smart decision and usually is a consequence of a short-term 'cold' streak.  Be careful and stay disciplined.   Good luck!

    First I go on and make a 3-team parlay for $850 (Philly Un7, LA Un6, Sea Un6). That's right, who has the BALLS to put two Under 6's in one big parlay? Then I figure I can't just sweat out 11.5 hours of baseball only to lose by one game/run. So I decide to shove all but $300 of my balance on Philly Under, just so I can salvage a little profit in the first 3 hours of my marathon in case I lose any of the 6's. And to at least not having to deposit again if I lose the first game.

    The remaining $300 I was going to make a parlay that included 5 of the other 7 predictions, including Detroit on the Over. But I thought fuck it. I was glad I didn't for a while until that game came out with a miracle 7-run 8th inning to cover. All other 4-games came through easy.

    Should have had $7K more than what I have now.

    Did not break a sweat in any of the three games. It was as easy as it gets...

    Philly started off with a 2-0 lead in the 1st, a score that I usually prefer over most non-scoreless scores early in the game. Oakland scores 1 in the 3rd to make me sweat a little but batters were just dropping like flies. Next update: 3-1 Philly in the 6th with Halladay cruisin'.

    The other two game started off with 4 scoreless innings and no inning produced more than 1 run at a time. The only fear was potential infinite-overtime, and even that I knew I was way ahead mathematically.

    What a great feeling to be on vacation in a park, pitching and batting by the lake with friends, playing soccer and frisby, doing a bbq while seeing money being printed for you through your iPhone.

    I know I always come in here to rant and whine about my bad luck. But here's a brag post for a day that more than made up for my season and possibly locked in a profitable season. Probably jinxed myself too, but then I don't believe in jinxing.



    The balls to bet two under 6's in one parlay? Those under 6's and 6 1/2's have been hitting at a very high rate all season so taking the under of those wasn't ballsy, it was the right bet to make.

    You guys don't get it. I used to be a DEGENERATE GAMBLER to the bone. I used to bet thousand a game, every day, then combine with parlays and what not. I got rid of most of my bad habit by significantly reducing the stakes while still having the rush of making the big score. ie: Parlays.

    A 4-game parlay for $200 wins about $2500. That's not a fortune for me at all. I play much higher stakes at Poker. When I lose in sportbetting, I keep the stakes low. When I win, I gradually increase stakes.

    Now that I have 10K, I will certainly not shove all in, unless of course I feel like having that kind of rush, physically torment myself for 3 hours, go to the bathroom every 20 minutes to throw up/poop. It's in me but I won't because the happiness of having 20K from 10K isn't nearly the happiness of turning 200 into 10K and sitting on it

    But the happiness from 4K is more than double the happiness of having just 2K that I didn't have 24 hours ago in the first place (from yesterday). Plus the adrenaline. I'm about to go nuts with the CFL and college football around the corner. Ohhhhh so much money to gambooool with

    If past history means anything, you should probably study up a little on your CFB, so you'll know when a QB's been drafted #1, instead of making a bet thinking he's still in college.  BOL
