No problem California Pizza Kitchen! It would be a crime to hide a hot capper from my homies on this thread.

I used doverpro a little bit last year but its hard to get the same lines/totals they post. by the time they rank/finalize their picks the line moves up to 3 points.

Wonder if those guys have a hand in shifting the lines before they post.

The cubs stink. Why did I start this series? I guess I put to much weight against the lowly Padres.

Down by 1 in the 7th. This is goin to a C bet.

I hate the Cubs because they have no heart and their record and RPI do NOT reflect how bad they are.

Dempster has 8 k's in 7 innings, yet has given up 4 runs! That is the mark of a snakebitten team...

Yeah, I hit both WNBA games last night. Still pissed about the CUBS. I will start using my gut in the future. Meaning i would have skipped at least the A bet in this series.

This Cubs series will be the first C loss in "years". I will still wager a tad in case I am wrong, but it has all the makings of a loss.

+1.5 was not available on the normal line, unless you were talking about buying the reverse run line for big juice.

Yeah and it just happens to be one i'm already using. I wonder what kind of line shifting will be going on there. I'm surely not signing up under that as I already have an account. But it'll be interesting to read if they do the same as BetUS...

Why do the books insist on making the Cubs such a HEAVY favorite against the Padres when the Padres keep beating the Cubs?--currently 5 wins in a row against the Cubs. I just can't afford another -210 loss. This series is killing me. The loss isn't that bad on the [A] bet. It hurts real bad on the [B] bet after the [A] loss. It would decimate my bank roll to lose the [C] bet if I try to recoup my A and B losses on the C bet. I guess I'm going to bet on the Cubs, but I think it will bet at an [A] bet amount and try to begin rebuilding my bank roll. Between this series and the WNBA Seattle, I have gotten rocked. But, believe it or not, I still have house money to bet with thanks to many, many wins.

I couldn't pull the trigger on the cubs tonight and it looks like they have a chance. I went small on game 2 because of the line and won't play a -200 road favorite two straight nights especially the cubs. I am going to start playing these types of games/lines RL only and see how it works out.

You guys need to stay disciplined. The point of follow a system or "set of rules" means don't handicapp them yourself. We were all on the edges of our seats, and books drive the line up on these games to get people to jump boat, and it looks as if you guys did exactly what they wanted you to do. Everyone needs to be wagering a size that a series loss won't kill their bankroll anyways. If you are going to follow a system, then trust it, and follow it. Don't just hop on board when its doing good, then jump ship...

Another RPI winner tonight... hate to admit it, but this system works. 34-0 on the year? Something like that?

For those that use the mentality "house money", stop thinking that.

Once you win money, it is YOUR money. If you lose it, you are losing YOUR money.

Also, you might not be smart with it if you look at it as someone else's money.

So if you start with 500 and grow it to 1500, YOU have 1500 dollars. Not 1000 of "house money".

Spot on.

This is why so many lose money back by making bigger wagers than they should and when waiting on the payout that takes weeks and months. They know if they wait you will gamble the money right back because most don't think of it as thier money.

Think of it as someone taking money from you that you earned.
