I got the No pick screen when I attempted to pick the Angels. I have VfB Stuttgart Win/Draw on SFTC as I go for W10.

Well, Bautista is 0-6 lifetime versus Weaver anyway, so I would have rather had him in there! lol. And I just found out that Bautista isn't in Toronto's line up for today, so this pick is looking even better.

I put my Win 5 on the Angels as well as my W7 on SFTC! I was not going to, but like you said, Somanyrings is risking his 25k pick, then why not? I was convinced to pick them when I ran into the consensus thingy and had to battle to make it go through before first pitch!
I hope the Halos make us happy today, my friends!

SORRY: Due to the consensus for this game, we cannot accept your pick.

Hey, Quad! Congratulations on earning our groups first Big Bad Blue Star in August! Great picking, bud. Keep it going!
I wish I was not on the Angels, but maybe they come back. Maybe not. I kind of feel that Texas is a trap because Cahill has had insane numbers in shutting down the Rangers in his career. That and I do not trust Lewis for Texas.
The "Team That Must Not Be Named" looks great later, though. Ace vs Ace, but I give them the edge with their offensive advantage; even against King Felix. It is still no lock, however.
Good luck today!

Well you gotta have the $12,500 to put doiwn in the first place, and in this economy probably not too many out there with $12,500 just laying around to use.Can't imagine how I would feel if I was stupid enough to not hedge and guarantee myself $12,500 lol
Now if I'm ever up to win the $25K or even the $100K I'd be more then willing to split the money if someone wanted to pony up the dough to hedge the bet, $7,500 to split on the $25K, & $25K to split on the $100K.
But man I know I'm pissed I just lost my W10 streak, I can't even imagine the rage somanyrings must be feeling right now, ahh I'd be punching the fucking walls right now.

Investors or big gamblers do..Especially for guaranteed money.. If I had the money I would want at least $5,000 for spotting the $12,500..so that would be $5,000 for me and $7,500 guaranteed for the person hedging on a streak.

This was my post on SFTC about the Angels game. I didn't realize that Somanyrings had picked the game until about 5 minutes before I posted this. Once I saw he picked the Angels I smelled the trap and I changed my pick on SFTC. Dam shame. Who am I to second guess a guy with 20 wins in a row but it a classic setup. Weaver missed his last start because of the suspension. Bautista not being in the lineup. I'm telling you we live in the Matrix. Amazing.

I was just reading the comments section under the article that covers wrote about somanyrings being 1 win away from the 25grand and there are some nasty people rooting against him and writting "jinx" in the comment section. I don't get why people would root against someone from winning $$. That is just rude and mean. I feel wicked bad for somanyrings being 1 win away and LA not showing up today

I understand the theory behind hedging but I don't like it. #1 It's a free contest so you haven't lost anything. #2 Where are you supposed to get the money for this "hedge".#3 Last but hardly not least most websites have a S3,000 limit. That mean who would have to deal multiple websites to make a bet. We see what happened to the Poker society. Some guys are still waiting for their money. Not all internet sportsbooks are reputable don't forget. These guys are filing paperwork and going thru all the BS that it entails. The only safe option is Vegas and even there you have to get permission to bet pass the house limit. I lived in Vegas for 5 years I know how that works. Maybe they will accept it maybe they don't. They wont do it over the phone, so you have to fly there. This all has to coordinated within a week's time. Then you have to hope the game you want to pick is on the board. Bottomline all this hedge talk is a complete utter fallacy. I would rather go for it all and forget the logistics nightmare that a hedge bet would bring. Seriously think about what this really means.
