This Scenario Occurs Quite Frequently

Whenever there is a game total, a low total like 7, 7.5 or even 8 for that matter, quite often a popular wager among bettors is to place a bet on a scoreless first inning and many bettors follow up by placing wagers on the 'under' for the same game.
Well more often than not, the first inning prop goes up in smoke and the game total itself hits. A perfect case in point is occurring right now with the Bucs and Arizona where, with the total set at 7.5, a run was scored in the first inning and that run is still the only run on the board as the two teams play into the home half of the fourth inning, which in turn looks promising for the game total itself staying under the number.
It just seems the proper way to play these games is to place a wager on 'yes' for the first inning run being scored and 'under' the total for the game itself.

Thats a tuff point to sell, but it seems to happen a lot just like in lincecum/jjurens the other day, hard to root for 2 things in one game tho, I dont have the balls to make those 2 conflicting wagers on the same game.

another scenario that happens quite frequently: someone starts a thread saying the under is looking dandy after a 1 run first inning.. and then boom, 4 runs in the top of the 5th

Ah well, tonight was an exception with this particular game and it wouldn't have mattered whether you took the 1st inning prop or played the total itself, either way the book got ya!

Now dont you feel like a premature ass? If you played the over and to score in the 1st its a winner so whats your point in this saying?

Yup, I went for the bait on this play and got nailed. Thought Haren would hold them down and the AZ bullpen would collaspe possibly....not tonight!
