    Hope you get this!

    Saturday's Final:
    Dodgers -140
    Blue Jays +122

    Sorry to say that line says the Dodgers are going to be tough to beat in this game. As others have stated, they'd like to see the Blue Jays win it, and so would I. Other than the Cowboys, the Dodgers have always been my second most hated sports team.

    However this is a wagering thread, and what I'm seeing is ya bet the Dodgers or don't bet the game, and just root for the Blue Jays.

    Any parlay suggestions for tonight's MLB game? I can't hit a parlay to save my life. Would have had a decent one last night, only needed Freeman to get one stinking hit to win the parlay, and the little bastige couldn't do it for me.

    😂😂😂 Same here except it could have been 1 stinking Run, hit or ribi

    I knew Betts was due but figured Freeman was safer!

    As far as tonight goes I'd say Ohtani 3 + hits runs or rbi with Vlad and Freeman 1 + same category

    I like it, and I'm gonna play it. I'll try punching it in right now and see what happens.

    I'm in a good mood, college FB going very well so far today. Nothing big, just some solid ML favorites, but all winners, no problem, all easy wins. The way I like it. LOL

    Thanks!

    @stevek I had to add the team total runs to get the profit boost, figured why not

    $10 pays $20.19

    Seems reasonable to me.

  • stevekstevek Posts: 30,857 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Thanks again. I've been doing poorly this season with the team O/U type chit, so I'll stick to the one parlay, and see how it goes. I hope it wins for ya, and then i'll kick myself for not playing it. LOL

  • stevekstevek Posts: 30,857 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I'm all over this Indiana game. Also caught two nice player props.

    Back in the black.

  • stevekstevek Posts: 30,857 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Took me awhile but I just figured out a new winning system. Just play Galaxy's parlay picks. Hit all three of his parlay picks so far, none were close. That Texas game looked close seeing the final score, but it was actually an easy win.

    Not sure about that Ole Miss game, so I'm laying off that one, but I hope Galaxy hits it!

    3 chances Ohtani had to get one little hit, run or RBI and he couldn't friggin' do it. 😒

    He couldn't even get a stinking walk when it would have counted, the next player homers, and he would have had the run to complete the parlay.

    Yep I very rarely do 3+ Hit, run, rbi it's usually 2 but I got greedy and it cost me, glad you didn't follow

  • galaxy27galaxy27 Posts: 8,976 ✭✭✭✭✭

    not feeling any of the shorter spreads today, so i'm doing a 13-point teaser with the 4 biggest favorites. 13 was the perfect number -- i like where it puts the lines on each of them

    gl all 🤙

    -3331.26

  • stevekstevek Posts: 30,857 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Falcons +4.5

    Patriots can win the game, fine by me, just make it by 4 points or less.

  • galaxy27galaxy27 Posts: 8,976 ✭✭✭✭✭

    great call with the Falcons @stevek. I had eyeballed that line myself but ultimately shied away. ended up making a poor decision by taking those massive favorites. had i tacked on 13 to those heavy dogs, those first 3 legs would have been layups. the Vikes & Panthers won outright!

    back on the horse 🐎

    Thanks!

    Me loved that missed extra point by the Falcons. The math on the bet virtually gave me a sure winner at that point. Only a pick-six or some other freak play would have screwed me.

    Dam that Bills-Chiefs game is tough. Been looking at it all day and still looking at it. Got around ten minutes left to make an executive decision. LOL

  • stevekstevek Posts: 30,857 ✭✭✭✭✭

    All over the Rams ML at very short odds. Been a great weekend of football for me. Figured I get some icing on the cake in that game.

    I should take the night off. But I'll probably look at the dam NBA and give some of it back LOL

    my confidence level is about a 4 out of 10

    but i'm tilting ever so slightly and as a consequence i don't care quite as much as i probably should lol

    Once again I'm not going to litter this page with all my losing bets but the Patriots game sniped me pretty good.

    Mack Hollins was a major target for Maye last week so I figured he could get 15 yards receiving, well he got 9 and that cost me a $580 winner, another parlay which would have paid $345 was full of a couple holes and a fist full of other $20.bets didn't come close

    I did cash a $440 winner and lit up the casino for $700 so it was a good day

    This one stung but I. feel I. made the right choice pre game, I threw a silly $5 bet at these props for ridiculous odds as you can see, I hit everything and had a $440 cash out option or could have rolled the dice on Darnold getting 250 yards passing, obviously in hindsight I should have kept it but on a $5 bet I took the $440, had I didn't I would have cashed for another $400 on top of it but been stung by not cashing out too many times.

    I was thinking I was going to be stressing about the game till 11pm at night and my girl. was harassing me to. watch a movie so I got out.

    Little did I. know freaking Darnold was going to have the 250.in the first half lol

    I been bit too many times so at the time the cash out was the smart play, I still had a helluva day so all good

    Dam, that was a tough one to hit. I don't blame ya for grabbing the sure $440 maybe thinking you just bucked long odds to get there, and didn't wanna press your luck on the final leg.

    Seemed like a good decision, even though Darnold came through.

    Well done! 👍

    you two both had good days yesterday.........i dig it immensely 💪

    i can't help but wonder how much Joe Flacco 450+ would have added to +18407 🤔

    It would have been astronomical, like I'm thinking it would have boosted my bet to. an easy 5k

    Another funny but not funny thing about that $5 bet is 99% of the time long range dart throws I put at least $10 or $15.at sometimes $20 but after dressing up. my losing Pats parlays I had $15 leftover and did a stupid TD parlays for $10 and had that $5 to throw at something stupid, but again hindsight is 20/20

    Still happy I made some money so I cannot complain

  • galaxy27galaxy27 Posts: 8,976 ✭✭✭✭✭

    i ponder what will happen first -- me getting this fugliness under 3k, or basebal admitting that he was wrong about something

    wonder what that line would be

    i'm sure i'd parlay it with something

    Anyone see those NCAAB lines? First game of the season.

    Double digit lines galore, many in the 20's, some in the 30's, and even at least one in the 40's.

    A heavy chalk ML player's delight, which is why I'm looking at some of them. LOL

    it was worth $87.50 to see Dallas lose again, at home, to a team that had lost 5 in a row coming in

    they are such a joke on defense

    Arizona deserved a W quite frankly. they were 2-5 and hadn't lost a game by more than 4 points all year
