    i've been doing it for some friends anyways that follow the system so i figured i'd let the public know to make it easier. Ill make sure to distinguish between B2W, irage, and as well, my own personal plays (9-0-0 so far this season with this system). 


    Sounds good with me! Email the white house if you like and post my plays.

    Well - I know it's not an official play - but it was a bet yesterday for other reasons and people liked them to win - but they lost.

    I guess what I was really asking is should I cut my loses or bet them to beat MIN - 2 out of 3 games of the series.

    I guess I just hate taking that loss with the juice  - and want the opportunity to win it back

    Im using up the rest of my free play with my book so I took LAA. Their offense has been blah so far. TEX not a bad playas always & CIN has +juice. I like CIN this year for whatever reason. Im only playing because gotta use up free play to "turn it over" 5X, which will be easy with the system.

    I know how you feel. I took the Rockies the other day and decided to pass up on them last night. Should've chased it.

    B2Dubs,

    Gotcha...it's your thread. Do with it as you may. Everybody just needs to keep in mind that until the SYSTEM starts, these are personal handicapping selections. These are not system plays.

    I have won with STL vs Cin and TB vs Det so far on unofficial series plays. I will also be playing the series' that the RPI suggests starting tomorrow. With so many that will qualify under RPI, I would be surprised if ALL of them win. I will be playing them smaller than normal. Needless to say there will be more plays due to the RPI not having a large enough sample to whittle it down to more precise plays.

    I love Baseball!!!

    B2W... just to let you know, I have figured out the formula used by ESPN to calculate their RPI values. So when I get the time I can run back tests on the RPI system because I can now calculate the RPI value for any date.

    Do I understand this correctly. You figured out the formula that ESPN uses to generate the RPI? I know it's not a secet, but I have been trying to figure that out too. Would you care to share that?

    I have won with STL vs Cin and TB vs Det so far on unofficial series plays. I will also be playing the series' that the RPI suggests starting tomorrow. With so many that will qualify under RPI, I would be surprised if ALL of them win. I will be playing them smaller than normal. Needless to say there will be more plays due to the RPI not having a large enough sample to whittle it down to more precise plays.

    I love Baseball!!!

    I think everyone is aware of that. We have on several occassions mentioned that and B2W has said several times that he will be starting a new thread when the RPI strategy begins.

    Personally, I think I will be posting the plays on my webpage along with the running total. This way people who just want the play and none of the commentary will be able to get it that way.

I thought me putting the plays up on my twitter would definalty help people that are on the go with their smartphones especially with the clutter in this forum (not saying its a bad thing since theres a lot of good information in this thread)

    WTF, LAA defense looking like they are stuck in mud. This sucks they have good hitters, but so many errors.

    I guess now they will be the worst team.

    Hey guys,

    This is related to the RPI system spreadsheet.  irage thought it would be helpful to add starting pitchers to the spreadsheet, and I would like to display both career and season ERA, but I am having trouble finding a website that has all that information in a format that would be easy to import.  So I need some suggestions.

    It's ok if there are multiple websites.  For example, might have the Career ERA, one might have the season ERA, and one might have who's playing today and the starting pitchers.

    Thanks for your help

    Look on covers. In the day matchups if you click on that pitcher it will show you past year results. The BIGGEST things I look at for pitcchers is their walks & WHIP. ERA is good but BoB & WhiP tell you if pitcher is of real value imo.

    The hard part with this style of betting is finding books that will take 2000.00 let alone a 3000.00 ML bet. So I have to use multiple books to make it happen.

    Of course losing a C bet means that I would be losing 6000.00, thats a big chunk of cash.

    Irage - If you bet game A at for $100 at 1.71 and it loses you are $100 down.

    If you bet game B for $200 at 1.71 and this loses you are $300 down.

    So if a series goes to Game C you would bet $300 at odds of 1.71, you would only win back $514 including the stake, ($514 less $300, less $200 and less $100) gives a lose of $86.

    Have a missed out something here or is that right if you go to Game C and win you walk away with a lose...??

    I'm using decimal odds.

     

    thanks

    Jaycut, i'm using decimal odds as well. That's not always the case but what I do is if a game loses, I see to it that I get back my loss and still profit even for a little. So it's not always double because sometimes the juice is so high that you need to bet 5 times what your "A" game bet was.

    C'mon, THREE pages of people saying who they are going to bet on?

    If your post has to do with this particular system, then post it here. If it doesn't then post it on a general picks post. This is getting so convoluted and ridiculous. I noticed some people think all these posts are official plays of the system! This doesn't even BEGIN for 2 1/2 weeks!

    I am hoping that B2W asks for this to be cleaned up before it spirals out of control and all we see here are random individuals telling us who they are taking.

    Again...no harm intended to anyone, BUT we need to right this ship.

    Cheers!

      Sorry i posted my play & cluttered up the thread.It wont happen again. I just liked cincy & felt good about them to win 1 of 1st 2.

    This is only thread i read daily & enjoy it.

    No worries bro!  I was with you on Cincy! you see that 9th inning comeback?  Fell short. Who cares. I don't care if people post a play with "insider information", just post "why" it's a play though. Gut feelings are no good here.  People here post them all the time.  Keep posting "series" plays and why.  GL.

    Degen,

    I'm using Open Office 3 for spreadsheets and such. You're spreadsheet opens and everything, and even the first day you posted it it seemed to update on its own when I opened it. It would say "Enable macros?" and id say yes and it would say then in the spreadshate "last updated: 4/11/12 10:45 pm" or whenever exact time it was when I did that.

    Now with the new sheet, the last one you posted that was meant to grab the RPI info off of ESPN, its not working anymore. Just opening and asking to enable macros is not enough, and it says updated yesterday at 9 pm.

    I tried going into the macros section and saying "run macro" but when it gives me the option to select macros, the only I can find are Module1, Module2, ect until Module 8. None of which do anything.

    I'm aware you probably didnt write this for Open Office Calc, but any suggestions on how to make it work there? Also, in case I do have to switch to Excel, which version are you using?

    Many thanks and much appreciated for making the spreadsheet.

    Ill try and post summaries for my picks but for now... 

    Toronto: 2009-2012: Toronto Blue Jays won 36 and Baltimore Orioles won 18. Jays shutout Orioles 6 times. Baltimore shutout Jays once... "A" Blue Jays.

    I'll usually put a few points via Twitter (@choe20) but those are some numbers I like aside from watching the actual games.

    I'll try and do a write up for Texas and and Dodgers if I get the chance. 

    good luck to everyone tomorrow.
