      As much as I hate that bet, it won. Series bets usually are based on the first 3 games of the series.

          Have you ever thought about parlaying two series bets to cut down the juice? I think a Cards/Brewers series parlay would hit this weekend.

            Actually 3+3 is 6 units on the day! But yes we did lose however personally the CFL game was the only one I thought about!

            Yes I used to parlay put to 3-4 series at a time! If you threw in Yanks and Phils those are 4 REALLY STRONG series bets! I love the series bet bc if the better team gets beat on a fluke you only have to win 2/3!

            I have really branched out after reading 4-5 books stating how prof gamblers don't only bet the mainstream sports! The wiseguys in Vegas are cashing in right now on WNBA and AFL and CFL. Even have one Vegas regular who makes a living betting tennis all the time! So I am trying to apply those methods going forward in find value ANYWHERE IT MAY BE?

            AS ALWAYS GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!

                Let me try to explain why I believe series bets of -200 or better are suicidal. You are basically betting at 2 to 1 odds that a team will go .333 or worse in winning percentage. Only the Houston Astros are at .333 for the year. So on average through the year they have won 1 of 3 games.

                Houston is 8-24 in series bets this year which means that they would be barely profitable if you bet against them in every series at -230.

                just my opinion....

                  3 units at -140 = -4.2 units
                  3 units at -220 = -6.6 units

                  -10.8 units

                    Actually it was -175 for -.5 on Boston in the first five and as I have stated NUMEROUS TIMES I bet to win units so yes it was a bad day but I didn't pay -220 for it! And if you look at this week 6 units might have hurt you but when you are 30+ for the week it's a drop in the bucket an if I had the nuts to postthe cfl play we would be talking about another profitable night! LMFAO! You are like my personal hater but I enjoy it so keep it coming!

                      What the hell does bet to win units mean? You bet 5.25 units to win 3..... that is what bet to win means....correct?

                      you lost 5.25 on the Sox and 4.2 on the Reds = 9.45 units
