I had a hot tip on a heavy home underdog in Uruguay's Liga de Ascenso. I put a 50 spot on it and a 100% profit boost, and prayed to the gambling gods. Sometimes things just go your way. Lol

I don’t even know what sport you won that bet on but keep it up! 😂😂
At my girlfriend's nieces birthday party last night bored out of my mind so I live bet the Sox when they were down 4-2 and they promptly did the opposite of what I needed them to do
Mixed up and bet Hits, Walks and Stolen bases rather than the Hits Runs RBI and it worked out to get in the green for the day
Sort of liked the Eagles today for no particular reason. But decided to continue staying on my sabbatical until the NFL regular season begins. The Eagles got crushed, not that NFL pre-season means chit.
I got a couple profit boost for live AB action, that is just silliness and I dropped $40 real quick on a couple $20 plays then got lucky on the Texas vs A's game so ended up posting a net $6 loss for the day which is just fine
BTW - With a prolific HR hitter such as this in the minors, that info would have made an interesting HR prop bet yesterday. Not sure if the books would have offered it or not on a new player?
I think most MLB pitchers, seeing a brand new rookie such as this, are going to try to blow fastballs by him. That obviously didn't work.
There are a number of marginal MLB batters who can kill fastballs, but can barely hit an off-speed pitch to save their lives. We shall see if Baez can handle this or not?
here's stevek and i talking about what we would have done had we placed a dollar on Joshua Baez to hit 3 ding dongs in his first 3 MLB ABs and won a million dollars apiece

I like this one. Might have gone max-bet on it, but I'm staying away from the sirens until regular season kick-off.
Cardinals game today:
Hmm - just saw where Baez is batting fifth in the lineup. So this isn't as good a bet as I initially thought. Figured the manager might place him third or fourth today. But fifth makes sense as well.
Of course two on, two out, Baez could still make an out to end the inning with no score for the Cardinals. Another scenario whereby Baez makes an out in the first, and the Cardinals sixth batter makes the final out for the inning with no score for the Cardinals.
Then to win the bet, the Cubs would have to go scoreless in the bottom of the first.
Oh well, I'm passing anyway even though I still like that -110. If it hits, then it hits, I ain't worried about it either way. 🤷♂️
Baez 1 HR stat they bet down to +460. The bet i really would have liked to have made is a no HR offer of -500 or so. But the books don't seem to offer props such as this. I even checked Polymarket and Kalshi, and didn't see anything there either.
Perhaps Baez hits one today and I would have saved money there as well. But if I was off the sidelines, I would have max-bet against it, gladly taken any -500 offer as a good value.
well done on SS. i sensed it was only a matter of time before he won again, and when he did he'd probably do so in resounding fashion. and that's exactly what happened.
and thanks bud. never in my wildest dreams did i expect to hit all 3. i also used those same 3 guys to take down the Golf Coach in a fantasy matchup over on DK. 5 of my 6 players ended up inside the top 20. 4 inside the top 10.
two more weeks to go and then we get the sleepy part of the season
oh, and to answer your question @Darin, i did think about that lol
but i have zero regrets going the top 20 route. i've proven that i can't consistently hit them, so i have no business chopping off 10 spots until i can.

the past two weeks have been a welcome surprise
It’s so hard to tell which particular golfers are going to golf well on any given weekend that going 3 for 3 in the top 20 is amazing. For all 3 to go top 10 is incredible. You should get a trophy or something. 🏆
Keep it up! I’m probably going to be fairly conservative until football season.

Very glad I'm abstaining. Saving money.

Today's game:
Joshua Baez to hit 1 HR +520
Joshua Baez to hit 2+ HR +7000
The media has been reporting that an unknown gambler from Texas, has placed a 100k bet on the Baez 2+ HR prop to win 7 million.
For yesterday or today??
If it was yesterday, Galaxy would have posted pics of himself in a hot tub with a dozen supermodels. LOL
I'm sitting here all upset he didn't invite me lol
BTW - With a prolific HR hitter such as this in the minors, that info would have made an interesting HR prop bet yesterday. Not sure if the books would have offered it or not on a new player?

Galaxy has stated before that he can handle a dozen all by himself. If it was more than that, he may have invited us to help him out. 😂

Well, got the Baez part of it right, just happened to miss the rest of it. LOL
More money saved by abstaining. 💲

Scottie could still fold but I got my money in good early in the round. He’s now -5000 to win.
Galaxy in position to hit all 3 of his golf bets. 🥳
Baez 0-fer 4 today thus far. He will get probably only one more chance at bat to try and hit the HR prop.
Congrats Galaxy!🥳
One question. Why didn’t you bet those 3 to go top 10 instead of top 20?
😀😀
