Not sure how that Col/Mets game goes, but i do know they get to Pedro. Just can't back Jimenez even though he has showed some serious improvement lately.
Great Threads as always OPC

This game is weird to me but i am also on it for a lil $$$... I was on it yesterday just due to the fishy line theory and it paid off good with a 13-2 Vicotry With that said yesterday when the game closed the line was pounded to -120/-125 in favor of the Indians. Now, you come back tonight with the hot bats of Indians, there best pitcher Lee. Take the road woes of TB add that in with slumping bats and a bad road pitcher in Shields and the line is only set at -105? Really weird to me thats why I didn't pound this play...Fishy line in the opposite direction IMO The books have loved Cleveland all year long giving their opponents extremely valued lines. Your telling me they finally catch on to the Indians not being great finally today with the above situations I listed?

Those are the exact numbers I gave you that should be 99.9% on point minus a few cents here and there. If you didn't get those returns you did in fact get worked over.
If that is the case I am sorry, you have now learned and although you may not think so now. This was a cheap lesson you were taught.

Here are my three parlays: $25 - Reds (-206) and Philly (-110 or something) - Loss $25 - Reds (-206) and NYM/Philly UNDER 9.5 (-110)- Won $25 - Reds (-206) and LAD (+110 ) - Won I used donbest.com parlay calculator (here) and it says I should have won like $45 and $55 on the two I won. My book says, "No, that is including your initial bet - so you won $20 and $30" But, the notes on donbest.com right beside the calculator say "win amount DOES NOT include your initial bet." Am I reading this wrong, or is my book trying to get some money back by stealing it?
First Play is a loss -$25 2nd Play is a Win for +$46 3rd Play is a Win for +$53 For a Net Profit of +$74 Now that is profit, I know through my bookie i dont actually lay out the money first. So when i win a bet it's just the profits i'm getting back because technically I never layed out $ in the 1st place. If your in a vegas sports book though you actually lay the money out & your getting your lay out money back as well. If that is the case it would be as follows... First Play -$25 Second Play +$71 Third Play +$78 For a Total Dollar amount +$124 Obviously this might be off a few cents here or there but this is roughly what the payouts should look like...

Lands, your missing the entire point my man...the record is absolutely 100% irrelevent. Whether he is 300-1 in WNBA and 450-2 in MLB and 75-0 in water polo the way he posted yesterdays post is his own way.
Maybe he doesnt give a daily record for the entire year updated on each thread because he has a running talley on his Covers Space with his overall record for his entire Covers Life.
The point was you make ur threads your ways, and he does his...That would be like him going into your thread and saying "do you really have to use the color read to show ur unit amount on each play"

You went into his post and told him how he should account for his record.
$Maker was simply stating his total record on the day. For example today saying 4-0 with 3 Wins in MLB and 1 win in WNBA. You said some wise ass comment like "are you really including a WNBA play in your record". It's his thread, his post it's not like he included it in his MLB record. He just simply stated his overall record for the last two days was blah blah blah and then broke it down.
6-0 is 6-0, WNBA or Water Polo w/e his niche is...I know you would take 6-0 in the WNBA over your 0-3 afternoon in MLB yesterday no? |

Is there any nice way of telling someone you can't believe they get tailed and their thread gets hit 5k times a day, yet your stinkin up the joint???
I think the way I did it without cursing and telling him the above was the best way, no?
Meanwhile, the guy had the huevos to go into $Makers thread yesterday telling him how to keep track of his record lol. Meanwhile the guys on fire.
Again, nobody is god on this site wheather its your first day or 10th year on board. He can go into other peoples threads and bad mouth, then when he gets questioned he rants, raves, and curses up a storm?

All units are correct come on guys...Lan is on here everyday and at the end of each day and start of the next he posts total record and units. It's not very hard to keep up with...+ 6 today, -2.5 yesterday, +17 Monday, -4.5 two tuesday's ago (EXAMPLE). It's not rocket science adding and subtracting numbers like theses...

With Ugglas sprained ankle I don't think he will be participating. As per the Miami Herald they said Hanley Ramirez would be the likely candidate to take his place...

Listen, I respect everyones opinion and what they do for this site. I knew I was gonna get the badland lovers against me in saying what I said. My simple point was....I'm shocked he didn't know why it went up. More so shocked he didn't know Halladay was out. That is surface details knowing the starting pitchers of games. Meanwhile, people tail his picks and hit his thread 5 thousand times a day because he provides information. If that information he's providing isn't even SURFACE DEEP theres a problem...
As for me making 1k posts, probably not I only post when need be. I don't rack my post count up by giving people in a post and nothing more.

That will be another play I won't be "Tailing" you on (No pun inteded ) .I guess the truth hurts, not once have I cursed or used a name towards you I don't get it were not 5 years old...
I read your post everyday (never tail), but I originally followed you because the fact that your thread was one of the highest hit. Figured that meant you were somewhat descent picking games, but apparently its that F5 button coming into play again. I see you have close to 9,000 posts, I guess this is kind of like Joe Paaaaa and Penn State. Over the hill, but seniority takes place so he's still around...

Not at all being a douchebag, but as being one of the most hit/followed cappers on the site I figured you would have done a little more research to the game before posting. All it takes is "LOOKING" at that game to see a starter is out This maybe the reason your -42 + units on the year (overlooking details).

Bad are you kidding? What's the discussion about? The game started at 7.5 when Roy $ Halladay was pitching, the game came off the board due to a pitching change and its now at 8.5/9
You should know info like this...

Can anbody tell me the last time the Rays have scored a Run???? The offense has been anemic the last 3 games. 3 Cities in 4 Days and if you really want the biggest reason Cleveland is 9-0 their last 9 at home against TB. However, this game is just wild, The Indians lost again yesterday after being up 6-0! I like the Under 8.5/9 in this game...
