Hi. I see lots of people complainingabout having a tough season. yet the last few weeks of interleague should have been a lock. a.l. central is 49-29 vs n.l. central. Is it a problem of laying big odds that has so many struggling to have a decent year.I am sure there are some that are doing well but I have the perception that going with strong favorites is an anathma to many.
I wonder if the same thing dosent happen in other sports as well. the price that one has to lay becomes too important a part of the betting process when the real issue is who i going to win the game.
I noticed when ace-ace had his great run in the nfl playoffs he didnt worry about the 1/2 point because he felt he knew who was going to win and more often then not they would cover. same thing here in baseball if you look at what happens if you lay 2-1 you still net out.
The other issue is the number of bets most seem to make. with 15 games forget about o/u for a moment it seems statistically imposible to have 6 games 40% a as the touts say a lock. 3 mabey but 6 every day?
anyhow just some thoughts from a bettor who had a great april lousy may and a split june with a late run. regards to all heart 222
