the fish lost last night???

My highlight was the Rockies game, which was coasting along nicely at 1-1 in the bottom of the 6th.

Chad Qualls comes in (he has given up one run in his last bazillion appearances) with a couple inherited, and the Rockies plate 5. I sweat out the game, on under 8.5, and in the top of the ninth, down to their last out on a 0-2 count, the Padres score to go over.

[>o]

The dog has sent away for a knacker protector.

that sounds very harsh

Cliff Lee pitching a shutout and helping out the Phils' terrible offense

Ok ... My turn, GVL.

So last night, K-Rod blows a two run save in the bottom of the ninth (**** happens) but then Atlanta wins it in extras ON A TWO OUT BALK!?

I win

lol didn't see that. was watching the sox and thought tampa bay were going to level it in the 9th. chaotic random sport to bet on

is there a stats site that lists p/l for pitchers? covers.com has p/l for teams at vegas odds but can't find any for pitchers. want to try opposing the so-called stud pitchers, as they do lose, and at good odds.

...
http://www.covers.com/pageLoader/pageLoader.aspx?page=/data/mlb/statistics/2011/startermoneystatistics_mlb_regular.html

That sort of thing?

aha! starter = pitcher. the penny drops.

hmmm might not be such a good idea opposing stud pitchers ty

opposing Halladay run line was pretty profitable earlier in the season

I used to oppose Santana early in the season in his pomp and it was a usually a nice little start.

Jimenez' figures are interesting.

lay vazquez = $

what a useless bunch of pinch hitters nyy just sent in for the 9th. they just fcking stood there lol fix???

They just didn't look 'at it' at all. Bizarre.

It happens, I suppose, but I thought they'd be up for a game against the Cubs. Garcia was surprisingly poor and Davis (a rag arm imo) three hit them! Pinch hitters striking out looking in the ninth drive me mad though

Ah well.

I was really tempted to back Cubs earlier

after that insipid perf last night and up against dempster i'm going to lay nyy now. plus i remember this burnett bloke was well dodgy last year, though apparently been better this year. anyway, i am officially sh1te at this, so you should all get on nyy with your full banks

back to back strikeouts from the Yankees with 1 out bases loaded
gotta love em

the hopeless fish, who started this fred, are going to lose their ninth in a row. this nolasco bloke is fg

ffs how did the cubbies fial to level it up?

gtfi!

this is one of only 2 days during the tennis season when there's no tennis and i'm shockingly bored. so i'm going to type some garbage on here. i'm going to try one of these tipping freds that i see on other phorums, even though i'm shockingly bad and ignorant about bb and we'll try an unusual steaking plan, a reverse half martingale we'll start using last night's  bets.

1 back chc 1pt @ 2.42 lost -1 -1
2 back tb 1pt @ 1.73 won +0.71 -0.29

tonight's bet for those who will sensibly be laying this fred

3 back tb 1.35pt @ 1.51 very short but can't see tb losing as they've got an even better pitcher on tonight

3 back tb 1.35pt @ 1.51 won +0.64 +0.37

4 back chc 0.84 @ 2.88 wasn't convinced by nyy last night, but hard to go full steak vs cc, so only a half steak

oops was looking good at 4-1

4 back chc 0.84 @ 2.88 lost -0.84 -0.47

5 back col 1pt @ 2.14

well that was entertaining, but i can do without entertaining if the money's on

5 back col 1pt @ 2.14 won +1.11 +0.64

6 back oak 1.55pts @ 2.26 oak on a bit of a resurgence, and this gee bloke can't keep winning, can he.

going to assume oak win (7-2 up top of 8th). bit tempting fate, but what the hell. quite fancy minn, and since wimbledon doesn't start till midday will sit up to watch.

6 back oak 1.55pts @ 2.26 won +1.88 +2.52

7 back minn 2.49pts @ 2.38

8-0 1 out in the first!

nice bet twins winning 8-0 in the first

crazy sport, nationals rallied from the dead against seattle earlier..

pmsl never seen a pither pulled after only one out in the first

both oak and min are dogs again! can lightning strike twice???


7 back minn 2.49pts @ 2.38 won +3.32 +5.83

next bet will be 4.15pts this is where the reverse martingale gets to be fun

after much agonising it's going to be wash

8 back wash 4.15pts @ 1.98

and if it looks done and dusted in time might have another go with minn

8 back wash 4.15pts @ 1.98 won +3.92 +9.75

next bet 6.11pts

no bet tonight

Nats: 4th, 2 on, no outs. Zimmerman is hacking away. Each game has been decided by one run - why not bunt the runners across? As it happens, they would've got one home on a bloop single by Morse.

wimbledon has been rained on and all remaining matches called off, so i can watch the min @ sf game.

i'm going to reset back to the start of the reverse martingale cycle, as there's no way i can get 5 in a row

9 back minn 1pt @ 2.56

(if that wins i will be livid! )

1-0 sf stupid, ill-disciplined bet

9 back minn 1pt @ 2.56 lost -1 +8.75

10 back nym 1pt @ 2.56

orioles most of your post was indecipherable to me lol but google is my friend and i understand some of it now

Come on, you should know by now ...

I know nothing about the game, but I like to bluff it by using lots of lingo

well i had a vague idea, but wasn't sure.

want to back the cubbies as well, but the games are concurrent and the steaking system won't cope.

wtf? mets winning 14-2 why not last night, you cnts!?? lol

10 back nym 1pt @ 2.56 lost -1 +7.75

lots of nice games tonight tough to choose

11 back cin 1pt @ 1.95

JUDAS!

home run festival in baltimore

11 back cin 1pt @ 1.95 won +0.91 +9.68

12 back cin 1.46pts @ 2.02

ffs! cin going for a record for number of runners left on base

14 runners left on base still, quite entertaining and don't mind doing my dough in a game like that. you can keep your 1-0 pitcher duels.

12 back cin 1.46pts @ 2.02 lost  -1.46 +8.21

blimey bumgartner's up later just have to fade him at these odds after what happened to him last time

13 back cle 1pt @ 2.36

13 back cle 1pt @ 2.36 lost -1 +7.21

14 back col 1pt @ 1.93

If Chacin doesn't stop leaving it up out over the plate, this could get ugly

Walks Garza [>o]

I'd love to be the pitching coach on THAT visit ... "You're a fking idiot, now pull yourself together, or you're walking home".

Horrible. Chacin is broken tonight

this is not going well, is it? this chacin bloke was supposed to be good

come on, cubbies, you can fck this up!

He's a good pitcher, but the margin of error in the majors is tiny - especially with the wind out at Wrigley!

If you struggle with your location, you'll get spanked, and that's what has happened to Chacin this afternoon. So, the ball has disappeared ... along with my money

looking like a 3 game losing streak for me too was going to go with cin at midnite as i enjoyed watching them vs bal, but tb look to be in good nick so will give it a miss (cue cin win! )

2-0 cin

'Faint heart never won f'all on the bases' as they used to say on WKRP

14 back col 1pt @ 1.93 lost -1 +6.21

having a post-wimbledon break shortly, and don't like this interleague stuff. so back after the all star break.

15 back cle 1pt @ 1.92
looks a suspiciously nice price on the tribe. what am i missing? lol

15 back cle 1pt @ 1.92 won +0.9 +7.11

16 back cle 1.45pts @ 2.1
tribe dogs??? wtf? can't have that lol

I don't think they were dogs last night, but the price was out of whack!

It may have been the bet of the season so far

no they were 1.92 last night, but dogs tonight despite what looks to my novice eyes to be an even better pitcher matchup again, what am i missing???

I haven't looked at it in any depth yet (they're a bit closer on the home/away splits) but it still looks like a great bet.

The Indians record on the road seems to be worrying people!

This might be of interest

Cheers, Reg.

thought you'd have taken that last offer, i though it was quite a good one for your team

I was on Cleveland last night but I'm not touching them tonight with Arrieta on the mound for Balty. Especially when there are far better match-ups tonight; Verlander at home, Haren at Oakland and my favourite Karstens against the terrible Astros.

oops! verlander and haren

16 back cle 1.45pts @ 2.1 won +1.54 +8.65

17 back fla 2.21pts @ 2.16

Z told me to reject it, Ron

i see, his whole going to the beach excuse for not being on the #boc is a carefully crafted cover [smiley:crazy]

'Going to the beach' is a well known Bulgarian euphemism for a donkey bondage party and BBQ.

wtf is all this sh1t doing on my fred??? get a room you two ffs

well shirley even the fish can't chuck away an 11 run lead with 3 innings to go so i shall assume that's in the bag. next up fancy a bit of chw, but not super confident so only a half steak.

17 back fla 2.21pts @ 2.16 won +2.48 +11.13
18 back chw 1.73pts @ 2.46

ah bollox to half steak nonsense!

18 back chw 3.46pts @ 2.46

uh oh chc just scored 3!

ho hum easy game this baseball

18 back chw 3.46pts @ 2.46 won +4.87 +16.00

that's 4 in a row and the reverse martingale getting interesting!

19 back cin 5.9pt @ 2.2

19 back cin 5.9pt @ 2.2 lost -5.9 +10.1
20 back cle 1pt @ 2.02

birds win 2 in a row???

20 back cle 1pt @ 2.02 lost -1 +9.1

really fancy tb later, so double steaks!

21 back tb 2pts @ 2.32

what a farce

21 back tb 2pts @ 2.32 lost -2 +7.1

22 back min 1pt @ 1.76

well that didn't go very well
22 back min 1pt @ 1.76 lost -1 +6.1
23 back bal 1pt @ 2.18
bit obvious but got to fade bos after the silly game last night, even if it is the o's

Hope you didn't stay up to watch it GVL.

I'm avoiding the temptation to back Halladay @ 1.48 tonight. Just not worth it.

23 back bal 1pt @ 2.18 lost -1 +5.1

this is not going well lol 5 losers in a row. ah well, still in profit.

24 back cws 1pt @ 1.88

ffs! lost to kc! that's 6 in a row time to step away for a few days i think lol

24 back cws 1pt @ 1.88 lost -1 +4.1

Hope u don't have money on the fish tonight.... 13-0 down after 2 innings!!!!!
