    I guess with all the miraculous comebacks TB has made Its just hard for me to see the series ending today and going 0-2 at home in the playoffs.  I agree with your argument with the starting pitching matchup so will take my shot at first 5.  GL and thanks for all your picks and write-ups.

    bodio --

    love your write ups man... made a bet early early this morning bein a lil intoxicated at the time and was feelin hellickson for the early game, took it at -120, bet 333 to win 277.50,  now that i see that you are on the rangers i wanna change out of my bet but its at -105 on my book, just trying to figure out the right amount to bet to successfully nullify my rays bet and get on the winning side...

     

    455 on the rangers would pay 433 so id be +100 with a rangers win then but -178 should the rays win.... do you think this is a good way to do it? is it worth doing anything at all at this point? any input is greatly appreciated... keep shippin winners man, i dig it

    hehe...well, if the Rangers win then you'd be up $100 and will be very happy you changed your mind.  If they lose, you'll be down $178 and you'll probably be back in this thread calling me all kinds of names and telling me how you should have just went with your initial 'gut' etc.  Bottom line is that I can't really tell you what to do.  All I can do is tell you what I'm doing, explain why, and show you my long-term records so that you can make a well informed decision.  Hope you make the right one for yours and more so for my sake!  :)

    Good luck buddy!

    love your write ups man... made a bet early early this morning bein a lil intoxicated at the time and was feelin hellickson for the early game, took it at -120, bet 333 to win 277.50,  now that i see that you are on the rangers i wanna change out of my bet but its at -105 on my book, just trying to figure out the right amount to bet to successfully nullify my rays bet and get on the winning side...

     

    455 on the rangers would pay 433 so id be +100 with a rangers win then but -178 should the rays win.... do you think this is a good way to do it? is it worth doing anything at all at this point? any input is greatly appreciated... keep shippin winners man, i dig it


    hehe...well, if the Rangers win then you'd be up $100 and will be very happy you changed your mind.  If they lose, you'll be down $178 and you'll probably be back in this thread calling me all kinds of names and telling me how you should have just went with your initial 'gut' etc.  Bottom line is that I can't really tell you what to do.  All I can do is tell you what I'm doing, explain why, and show you my long-term records so that you can make a well informed decision.  Hope you make the right one for yours and more so for my sake!  :)

    Good luck buddy!

    What are your thoughts on this prob bet Josh Hamilton hits+runs+rbi over 2.5 +105. My thought process is he is due for a breakout game and he us facing a gas can today, one bomb and we cover. Any thoughts

    thaknuts flip flopping on a bet when the line move hasn't gone in your favor is a very expensive thing long term.  You have said it yourself... you are basically betting the rangers to win at -178 now when the available line is -105.  This is especially a problem since you are only trying to win 100.  Say you were to double your original bet 699.3 to win 666 on TEX you would effectively reduce the -178 to -127.  Not nearly as bad as the -178 in my opinion but then again if your bankroll can't take that kind of hit (lose 422 if rays win) then I wouldn't suggest it.  You should probably have 16k bankroll to be betting 333 on a game in the first place but to each their own.  Good luck today in whatever you decide.

    Nova vs Fister in game 5 eh?  Bombers would be at home facing a lefty thus they'll have a solid chance.

    Then most likely Rangers who have 3 lefty starters with home-field advantage.  The only problem is that Rangers starting pitchers are probably a bit better than Yankees'.  

    At +385 odds you have about 21% chance of winning this one.  Yankees have about a 25% chance of winning this first series.  There really is not much 'value' in this bet but if you want to put a small action wager on it why not
