Got buried betting interleague last year and off to an awful start this year so far

Iceman · May 18, 2007

I don't know what it is but last year I joked I was going to take the weekend off when interleague came around. It took me 16 days to FINALLY get ahead this month and now I have pissed it all away in less than 3 hours.

This could be borderline disastarous. Down $1,710 so far today. Trying to get this down a little bit in the next few hours.

Got hammered betting 1st 5 inning unders as I am 0-6 with them today. Betting unders in baseball can be sheer torture. The worst part is the numbers I had today were excellent and I was coming into the day on a 3 day winning streak and up almost $2,500 in that span.

What a month!!! First the 18 game losing streak, now this. I guess I should be happy I am down less than 10 units for the month of May currently.

I ve never been good at interleague I think I have overvalued the AL in years past....I still haven't had the urge to bet much baseball, lost two dimes in the past two days this week trying to catch a wave...

I lost big with the Skankees against the Mets ... when will I not believe the hype and accept that they really are a shit team?

10 games behind and I am stupid enough to play them against a 1st place team on the road.

Miserable day here also, NY/NY under 8.5 bailed me out, or I would have been stuck 4.5 units.

Ice, overall this year how are the 5 inning lines doing? If it is down thus far I would probably lower my bet size.I guess the question would be, how much sharp money are played on these. If I see the game total played to the over or under(Pinny Lean) then I would look to see if the 5 inning line moves also, if not and there is an edge, then probably worth a bet.

Good point. The 5 inning lines have put me over the top the past month and have become my bread and butter bet. Very happy with the results. The place I have been able to find these bets at carry a huge edge and I should and will (hopefully) exploit them.

Been doing this daily since Sept 1st and have only missed 1 day along the way and yesterday ranked as the 2nd worst day overall since I started this. Lost $2,070.

I stick by my favorite statement when it comes to betting " You better be prepared for HUGE flucuations of your bankroll". That is my number 1 advice to others who want to pursue this daily. Time to brush myself off and get back out there, I have a 8 month winning streak on the line and a little moutain to climb (down almot $1,300 for May).

Thats because you are chase steam from people who dont know what they are doing.

May want to check my thread out. Im the interleague specialist. Always have been.

Iceman · May 19, 2007

Thanks but no thanks Chop.

I am not chasing steam as much as betting value bets, numbers that are off.

People look at baseball completely wrong (IMO). They only look at wins and losses.

When you are betting high volume daily you keep getting lines that are 10 cents off and eventually you grind out a profit. People don't see it that way but if you bet lines -120 that are supposed to be -132 your edge will eventually come into play. It is a true grind. The right price and shopping for pennies end up meaning everything.

maidenguy · May 19, 2007

Agree 100% with Ice here. Beat the closing line and you will win in the long run.

because that is the true line established by the market of millions of dollars bet into it worldwide.

Yep this would be his exact answer if he is being honest. He does no capping as he is not capable of it, just playing numbers that are close to scalpable against pinny. The more a scalp it is the bigger he plays it. Not rocket science at all. You will slowly grind out profits over time doing this, no question about it. More people should do it if they cannot win more effieciently on their own which is almost always the case.

As for me, when I make a straight wager, I do cross check pinny's line usually against the best line I can get and will bet it a little larger if it is close to scalpable and if pinny's lean is the other way, I will take a 2nd look unless it is something I know that I know more than anyone in the wolrd about, like a husker basketball game then I know I will win anyway even if the pinny lean is the other way. Bottom line is that he has no idea why he is making the bet as he doesn't enjoy sports as much any more like he used to so doesn't watch them often. He is just trusting that there is some reason that pinny has the line where it is. The problem that one has to be careful of doing this system is that sometime you can end up playing what essentially is not a pinny lean but the other book lean. One needs top learn how to identify what is a pinny lean or what is not. I know how, but don't need to do this grind, as I make plenty with my knowledge alone so unless I am really bored, I will leave this loose change in the fountain. If anyone is interested in doing this seriously, would be glad to help identify what is a pinny lean and what is not, then you can do this even more efficiently than how Ice does.

All I can say is unreal. You asked me last winter if you could e-mail me about the so called Pinny lean so you could learn about it and now you are ready to teach others. Supposedly you are an expert on how this works and how to identify it. This is priceless.

Sorry RoyalFan but your arrogance becomes more baffling with each post.

To sum it up RF wins because he is smarter than everyone, peorid. If you don't believe him just ask him. He needs no help and bets so big that he doesn't need to waste his time working hard at this as it just comes natural to him.

Don't ask him to explain his methods, style, system, or how he goes about picking winners as that he needs not to prove anything or how he makes money at this. He wins because he is RoyalFan and that should be enough for most of us. Still no proof of anything. Still waiting for you to add some value to the board in some way. See I am ready and willing to ALWAYS learn and know that I can always improve. Something please, once so we all give you the credit you so much want us to believe. Anything, I am all ears.

Good Luck RF. I think you may need it more than you think (sure that is hard to believe for you).

pinnacle encourages scalping because it is profitable for them.

I needed help with the pinny lean? This is the most basic tool there can be and I once told you that you should do it instead of scalping off of it. So please do not suggest that I needed help learning it. As for helping out, I do when I can, aparently you have not seen my college hoops thread etc, or paid attention when little league rolls around. However, a lot of what I play I cannot give out for obvious reasons as they are on the unique side. I do not wager as large as you would think. There are relatively low limits on these wagers so I have to wager proportionate amounts on the straight wagers I make where my advantage is less aside from the games that I know i have a huge edge on, like husker hoops games that i do bet very large on. As for being smarter than everyone, I surely am not. Being a creative gambler that knows how to exploit situations by watching them unfold in previous games, especially in the NBA playoffs, does not make me smarter in life.

If you want to try and start a pissing match, I am not going there, but I will offer you a similar deal as I did to whalewager last year. We pick a great book like olympic and have a 5 or 10 thousand dollar football wagering contest. Play anything you want, whether it be a future, straight play, first half play, quarter play, prop, or whatever you see fit. Anything football related through the superbowl. 1-5 units per play, no limit to the amount of plays and they get posted for all to see right here on the rx. You have to make a real ten dollar wager in the account for proof the line existed as claimed on here. We give each other access to each others account at the end of the week if someone wants to see proof. Then we can see first hand who is the better gambler is if you think I am a farse. Would expect you to decline similar to how whalewager did.

Keep in mind, I have said time and time again that your dedication and willingness to grind and win is admirable. More people should follow your method and they could win. Just don't take offense by the fact that it doesn't make you a great handicapper.

You just don't get it do you? I will leave it at that. It has nothing to with capping or making money, nothing at all.

I don't want or need to get into a pissing match. I have much bigger (and I am sure your do to) fish to fry.
