ytd 119-132 (-19.91 units)
Decided I would count that bull**** Flubs play against the Pirates as a loss, since the book graded it as such, even though they were leading at the time of the game being called and they ended up winning the game after it was restarted. Makes a difference of 5 units in my record, and more importantly my account balance....such bull****.
Anyhow, so far for Saturday....
KC Royals +120
Colorado Rockies +124
LA Dodgers +155
Boston Red Sux +190
Texas Rangers +148
Arizona Diamondbacks -135
2 units each
I also decided to try something that is probably stupid. I have decided that I am going to try and double up 5 or 6 times in a row, starting with a $25 wager and trying to take it to $500 or more....it all depends on the odds of the game and how many times i risk doubling up. I am also not going to play a game every day, but rather wait for something I really like. Trying to force plays to double up every day will no doubt result in the streak ending rather prematurely.
Anyway, last night I played Baltimore -122 for $25 to win $20.49 (my POD contest play from here) to get things started, and it won, so my balance is now $45.49. I am considering risking the $45.49 on the Rockets ML tonight, but at about -250, the payout of somewhere in the neighborhood of $18.20 doesn't seem worth the risk.
This is just something I've seen people here do before, and thought it would be fun to try. I'd be happy with anything over $500, which i figure if i play all faves, will take a minimum of 5 wins (risking 25 and doubling up with each win @ +100 odds would get you $800), and maybe 6 if some of the plays are larger faves, like Houston tonight. That's not asking a whole hell of alot really to hit 5 or 6 straight plays if you're being selective, and the risk of $25 is well worth the payout of $500+
