I am done with capping games

What is the point?

I have the Cubs M/L, R/L. Best team in the NL with the best hitting lineup against the Bucs with the worst ERA in the league. To make matters worse they start a AAA pitcher making his first start in the big leagues since 2006. Add to that, Bucs just traded away Nady and Bay. Best home record versus worst road record. I can point to all kinds of trends and stats but that will just belabour the point.

Guess what? Cubs lose 3-0.

Maybe Bigbookie has got it right. He picks 5 dogs everyday, if he goes 2-3 he will break even. If he goes 3-2 or better he makes nice money.

That's what it comes down to isn't it....UNITS AND MONEY WON NOT WIN PERCENTAGE.

I think sometime you have to factor in Who and where they Played, the Day or two before..

I'm not saying I am a great Capper or anything. But I like to Look at the Big Picture when Capping a Game.

When I took a look at this game, I factored in that the Cubs just came back from a BIG series with the Brewers. I had thought that it had to take something out of them.
But then I Factored in All of the above ( what you said )
Felt that the price was very high ( I don't play above -160 ) even though it was the right Price.

So I just stayed away from the game.

Sometimes, you just need to look the other way. Just My 2cents

Sorry to hear about your loss. Your first mistake is betting games with that much juice.Try to stay away from -150 and above. Look for for the underdogs with the best value and spread your money around. Also, when EVERYTHING points to one team winning, like the cubs today, take a chance and bet against them, especially if 70% or more of bettors are on one side. hope i was of some help to you. BOL in the future

Why would I do that?
This has been a good year for me. I have gambled for 30 years now and would never give it up. I'm just steaming right now.

Thanks for the tip though.d1g1t

You need to learn that the Cubs, Redsox, Yankees, and Angels are all overrated trash. And that the Japan national team would beat the living piss out of all of these teams. ESpn trys to shove these teams down our throats, but the truth of the matter is these teams suck. The only thing these teams have going for them is that they are popular which means the umpires will kiss there ass, other than that they arent worth jack squat.

Humans are pathetic little sheep. They need some hero to look up too. The key is to not be that little sheep that the international bankers want you to be. Thats is why I am about to go on a uge run, because I have clapped down and have gone back to oragnic. What does oragnaic mean? IT means a BIG FU to the USA, to the MEDIA, and to the SHEEP of this world who follow the bankers and let the goverments lies dictate there thinking.

Marquis did exactly what I thought he would do...2-3 runs allowed.
It was the bats against a no-name pitcher from AAA that got me.

Should have been more if not for a two Rivas choke jobs and a 400 foot double by Jack Wilson that was an inch away from being gone.

I had the Buccos TT over 3.5 so that was a dandy of a game to watch for 3 hours.
