I got lucky on this one. I would have bet with you but was still golfing when the game started. I had an eagle today so will be happy regardless of my pathetic bets….!
Rangers/Braves
pitcher Andrew Heaney under 4.5 strikeouts_____________-135
he's been under 4.5 Ks in 13 of his last 14 starts
he's facing the Braves - the best hitting team in the MLB (in batting average)
in his last 15 starts he has only pitched over 4 innings in one game - and is very often pulled well before that - current era - 6.75

I love the Kings over the Pelicans. Against the Lakers the Pelicans were trash EXCEPT for a GREAT game by Zion. Zion is out today. I thought I’d have to give 3-3.5 points on the Kings. I’m GETTING a point.

Next mortgage payment bet on Levert over 11.5. Also a little on LeVert over 9.5 laying -200. I remember him a few years back thinking he’d be a star instead of the journeyman he became…

This old guy sucks. 35 years old
Last game 5 whiffs on 75 pitches
I think this is a good bet
Only worries if he issues walks and gets pulled early
Starting pitching ain't what it used to be
Hopefully goes at least 5 innings
props are to me much more interesting than the traditional bets
really makes your mind work to try and figure out a good bet
doesn't mean I can actually get an edge - but definitely more enjoyable to try

one last one for today
Lane Thomas a .195 hitter for the Nationals going under 1.5 total bases________________-180

I’m close to 0 for Florida…!
Quote: SOOPOOLeVert has only played 13 minutes first 3 quarters. Has 5 points. I always need to remember the guys making the lines are smarter than me and LilRed. Or at least have access to more information.

yes, maybe the best way to play it is:
when you see a line that looks wrong like that -
either just leave it alone or play what looks to be a wrong bet
I think somehow somebody definitely knew Levert wouldn't get a lot of minutes
my bad - I'm determined to keep going - try to learn from my mistakes
edit - the Mikolas pick was a winner - that was one that didn't look like it was out of whack - Mikolas gave up 9 hits in 4 innings
from now on I'm just going to leave the lines that look wrong alone
if I win the last one my picks will have had a winning day - but not by much -

I'm not surprised lol
the 3rd of my picks today was a winner - Thomas had zero total bases
since I started picking props I'm 7-4 with a 6% r.o.i.
all of my picks that won paid less than even money and most paid way less
certainly not great
hoping to do better in the future

Kids education fund now riding on Reyes under 1.5 total bases!
Subtle point…. Road teams always get 27 outs, 40% ish of the time Home teams only get 24.
I finally won one yesterday. The HardRock boost gave +450 on Edwards over 29.5/Twolves win.

I just looked at Pablo Reyes' splits on slugging percentage: his slugging percentage is 0.120 vs right-handed pitchers and 0.297 versus lefties.
Danger, Will Robinson!
gonna make tomorrow's pick - a non prop pick - early, because I think the line may get a lot worse as we approach game time

how many left handed pitchers has Reyes faced that are as tough as Perez this season - not many I would presume
it looks like you're not planning to 𝙃𝘼𝙈𝙈𝙀𝙍 my picks - I laugh in the face of danger_____________:)

Reyes had one hit today - a double - the pick lost -

going to try and get some of that loss back

Where did you read he bet on his own team to lose? You are just making that up, right?
The main allegation (to my knowledge) is that he had an accomplice bet the ‘under’ on all his personal results from a game, and that he pulled himself out of the game.

They were talking about that today on the radio and also said he was betting against his team.

I guess that I am either a genius or very lucky. Six goals with 19 minutes left in the second period.
I guess if I was a genius I would have made a big bet.

At 8:58am this morning I made a bet on a Ping Pong match online with Hard Rock. Match started at 9:00am. I did get lucky and win my bet at 9:19am. Great action.
