Yeah this issue was addressed earlier and I understand the point. But like I have previously stated we're simply running the numbers of their picks regardless if they conflict or not. So for example if you have 2 of the top 5 with the same pick then you could bet 2 Units on that pick if you like.
The Top 5 angle is just that an angle. I have noticed in the past how these guys had huge winning pct regardless of who was at the top. Point being they were all winning over 70% of their picks. So you may have conflicting picks like yesterday but it's still going to be their collective record and that's all this angle is concerned about. If you have followed this thread I have said on more than a few occasions to be careful with this especially in regards to Survivor picks. But it's definitely a money maker with the books except for the last 2 days.

Not seeing any promising options to lock in as a Survivor Pick tonight.. All the games i like are off the board.. Was leaning on KC again until i saw Rockies P De La Rosas was 45-8 @home in his last 53 starts… However, KC is 13-3 when Duffy throws vs teams with losing records… KC is playing lights out as of late, winning 8straight and 22 of 27.. Rockies going the opposite direction, winning 9 of 32.
All of the games are toss-ups IMO.. Laying off till tmrw
ESPN Streak4Cash Pick:
LA Angels-134, with (P) G. Richards (2.53ERA) going 14-out-of-last-16 vs teams with losing records.. While Boston, only 6-out-of-last-19 vs teams with winning records and 7-13TeamWL when Buchholz (5.79ERA) takes the mound…
Angels seem to have the Sox number going 14-5 over the last 19 and winning 8-out-of-the-last-10 @Fenway…

I understand where you coming from SmoothD. I just wanted to make sure...not always on top of this board. Although you can thank me for not playing the angle as I had just started betting it two days ago....so you can all blame me for the previous two losing outings.
Naturally I did not play the angle today so you all may go undefeated tonight! My luck runs so bad............

No worries Burntoast that's why they call it gambling. Hang in there my man things will definitely turnaround.

Good observation Vick. I was liking the KC-Col Under so they took it off the board because everybody was on KC. Well I know their tricks now so I waited awhile and sure enough it was back on there so I hopped on it. Now sometimes in the past this has backfired on me but like you when I saw that De La Rosa is money at home and Duffy has a great ERA but is suing the team for lack of support. I had to my streak on it so here I am. Going for that rare W7! Oh yeah let me not forget my man Rainendown is on it so that convinced me.
We should call him Mr. Under 14 wins in a row going on the Under. Now that's impressive!

Nice Play on the Under Smooth… Solid Win. Congrats on the W7!!! I went 3-0 with Baltimore, Angels, Frisco… Bringing me to 13-2 in the last 3 days… Now I need to bring some of that success over to my Survivor Picks.. Surprised the Angels-138 weren't on the board? Doesn't seem like that big of a favorite *shrugs* O well, they helped me string together W4 on ESPN tonight..
I haven't look at the MLB games for Thursday yet, will post my thoughts tomorrow..

No numbers or sexy stat-work for this one, just a "gut-feeling"… Philly hasn't demonstrated high efficiency with their 1st team offense yet, look for that to change tonight in this always pivotal 3rd Preseason game. Maclin, Cooper, and Rook Jordan Matthews will all be in the lineup tonight for the 1st time this Preseason, I'm expecting starters to be on the field till halftime… Look for the Eags to get their offense going and put numbers on the board… While no question their D is suspect to stop a nose bleed, I don't see The Curtain being able to keep pace.. Some extra distraction won't hurt the cause provided by the Bell & Blount blunt session…
Eags-3

Everybody stand up and give Rainedown a nice round of applause! 
He had a great streak of 15 that came to an end messing with that Beaverball! We're gonna call Rainendown Mr. Under as his streak was nothing but the UNDER baby! Good job my man. Now get back on that Horse and get another streak going!

Aaron Rodgers & Co. should be able to build a early lead for the Cheese-Heads tonight by half-time when McCarthy pulls the plug on the 1st team… Then its a matter of what can the 2nd and 3rd's do? I feel the Pack have a signifcant advantage here… The Raiders QB situation is mediocre at best with Schaub, with Carr (Questionable) the drop off to McGloin far exceeds that off Rodgers to Flynn and/or Tolzien.. I think GB has no trouble winning by double-digits tonight..
Packers -7
Best of Luck
