Does anyone actually profit in MLB or just do it for the action

It seems like most on here have been getting killed or just breaking even.  Some who started out well would keep a record and now don't even bother.  Last night had Cubs, under Pads/Nats and Brew Crew 1st 5.  Those were pretty brutal outcomes.  I don't even bet everyday but when I do its normally always the same.  As you can see betting 1st 5, FG, O/U doesn't matter.  Maybe I should only invest in props or just stay away until football season probably the best thing

You can win very little with big juices,but overtime you lose everything because of the big juice

There are several good long-term cappers here who consistently post +EV plays.  

Start to really think about this world,,, and start thinking do the people that even post actually put real money on it? Hundreds or thousands or dollars or even better some seem to just post for fun

u can win u have to be very selective, big juice like devedder most people have no discipline 3 to 4 plays a week thats ittt, if ur scared of juice dont gamble n get a DoG. discipline, discipline discipline.

I believe the successful people are those who know when to bet big and when they lose, they know how to regroup, whereas most gamblers who lose a big bet fold like a tent

Baseball is a great sport to wager one  Just do not play a lot of huge favorites    Totals are good too as they are not juiced too much My advice is if you are a $100 punter or whatever the dollar amount is play that on your plays  Meaning if a team is -140 do not lay -140  Just stake $100   that way you can minimize losses 

I cap sports to fairly tight parameters , and do not digress from a set

standard. This means that I don't find as many plays to bet as compared

to others , but the plays I do choose to bet , I think give me the best chance

to cash a ticket. Just like Fin said in post # 6 , that takes discipline.

If you have discipline , you are more likely to succeed over the long run.

Blessings and Good Luck   

Baseball is tough man.

I just look for streaks, patterns. metrics ect..I try to not lay heavy juice unless I did my homework and really like a game.

To much action on board to bet everyday. The days I don't make a straight bet I make $15 3 teamers to keep me going.

Overall, I lost, but I don't bet what I don't have and I do hit some 3 teamers here and there, but overall I just love the game itself.

I bet my parameters in terms of money , number of plays.

Always take profits.

I'm only 5 games above 500 now but was 30 games above earlier this season and cashed out nicely 3 times.

I mostly play short favs and dogs.

I ended up +83 units last season... this season has been tough... the thing about mlb is that its such a grind... I had close to if not over 1000 plays and over 400 loses. You never know what order those Ls and w's will come in.. turns out the Ls have come out early this year.. GL this year, I hope everyone profits but...yeah

Keep in mind majority of people don't win over 50% in the long run in any sports. Look at all the records of top contestants in the covers contests, they can have good year here and there, but I all goes down to 50-53% eventually. People talk about fixing games, but there is no reason to do that with the numbers  working out the way they do.  There is a way to win though, nothing's impossible. Once you have done the work and lost enough, you will find a way to win.

 Very well said 

As I mentioned once before; less is more

You can win a lot of money in a short period of time.  It can be very profitable.

So there has been 338 blown saves so far into the season ( A BETMGM stat and not sure how up to date it is ).  I'm not sure where this ranks in previous years but that is surely is a lot before halfway thru a season.  That's just the ML stat.  Not sure what it is for the O/U ( like how I got screwed when Nats/Pads went to Extras ).  I'm sure just as much.  Not too many sports where a team can cruise comfortably for 2+ hours and then blow it on a day in and night out bases.  I understand that is 338 times you can either be on right or wrong side which equates to being a coin flip so basically when it comes down its all luck at the end of the day.  I'm sure there is some skill involved when capping (probably as much as Black Jack) but how tough is it to really to cap MLB compared to other sports. I know volume of betting is key but you can still go 2-8 in a 3 week span.  Losing is losing no matter how much you lose and after while can be discouraging.  Is there anyone here who can truly say they profit more from MLB than other sports ( And by profit I don't mean like $50 to $100 bucks after placing a 100 bets thru the course of a season ).  For those who are, I applaud you and I should probably be following

Well I had Rangers F5 yesterday for a winner.  Peralta threw 100 pitches thru 5 against the Rangers best pitcher.  So ya have to pick your spots.  

@Kaname484

 I follow NFL the most and my record is usually very good, the problem is if I really like a play I'll risk a lot, which usually keeps my winning to a minimum lol.

NBA is VERY streaky, lots of weird stuff happens all the time there.

MLB is oddly my most profitable and the sport I pay attention to the least. I dont make many plays, just watch pitching vs bad teams or bad pitchers.  MOST of my plays are TT's 1st 5 and -1.5 parlays given how much more scoring there is compared to when I was younger.

This actually might have been one of the very rare times not only did you make sense but you were helpful to the forum. Bravo. Wish you were like this more of the time instead of the needless bashing comments.

Gamblers always lose, bookies always win that’s life buddy
