    Why are you not chasing Atlanta, who have lost six in a row?  And do you always bet the same amount progressively regardless of odds?

    Good catch there. To minimize the loss, I always bet on teams that are atleast at the top 5 up to top 7ish.. If you check Braves current standing, they are at the 11th spot. Even if the Phillies are at the bottom. I would rather chase teams that are the top. Just my thing.. In term of risk amount, Yes, I always bet the same amount regardless of the odds. There are cases that you can bet on the spread if you want to get more out of your risk. If you notice, I started at 125 when my bankroll is 5K. But once I hit 6K, I change the minimum risk to 150. Hopefully, if I hit 7K this week, will start with 175.

    I agree with only taking top teams, but I noticed you bet on Oakland recently, and they are certainly not near the top of anything.  Anyway, thanks for the reply, and keep up the good work!

    I love making multiple plays on Sunday games that's why Athletics where on the list. 

    Just to add as well, if you use this strategy. You can also take into consideration betting on the not so good teams as long as you're willing to chase them at the end. Just keep a watchful eye on your bankroll.

    Thanks guys..(@donfernando and @Geedubya88)

    He took them -1.5, and they won 5-4.  It seems to me, more often than not. that when a team is on a bit of losing streak, then have their ace going and odds are in the -200 range, they win by 1, screwing everyone who went for the reduced odds on the runline and screwing up your chase as well.  It has frustrated me all year.

    so let me get this straight, your system is betting on a team who is cold and continuing to bet them? That, that is just so mind boggling dumb, baseball is the one sport where YOU DON'T bet against streaks and that's exactly what you are doing. This was a horrible idea to begin with... I don't care if the Nats hold on to win, you don't bet on cold teams to win, just system will not work, try doing the reverse and you might find more success.

    didn't mean to come off as smug as i did, but the point i was making is in baseball teams go cold and stay cold here a week and vice versa, betting on a team to break such a streak is not a good betting move, and while yes it might be working now, as the Nats have shown, this is probably doomed to fail at some point. I think you should try and do the opposite and see if you have more success/less stress there.
