2006 CWS: 2-8 (-2.62 units)
2006 World Cup: 17-4-3 (+12.45 units)
2006 MLB 1H: 107-160 (-27.64 units)
2006 MLB 2H: 9-6 (+2.52 units)

Not changing style at all, just downsizing bets and using Kelly method. Playing one game at a time (which i prefer), should be perfect use for the kelly system.

I cant seem to get a real good grasp this MLB season and i dont do this for a living, only a hobby to make extra cash.

Going to allocate my next $1000 in my Pinnacle account for this... Risking 10% of the allocated money on plays..

Kelly Bankroll: $1000

1. Pitt/CWS over 8.5 (-1.16) $100 to win $86

Listed pitchers and i used dropdown box at pinny.. doesnt bother me at all to decrease my wager size... Im not going that great anyway..

Pitt/CWS coming off 2 straight unders, but both play slightly to the over. CWS 9-3 in their last 12 to the over, as favorite... Duke (8.22 era) in last 3 and Contreas (5.31 era) his last 3.. Day game in Pittsburgh, should be some runs scored.. I also highly prefer the 8.5 total to the 9, when playing an over.

will probably have another game later today..
