Need some help about booking NYY RL

Nad-Man · Oct 1, 2012

I've been taking bets from 3-4 people last 3 weeks. Have made around 2K. All plays have been football. One of the players hit me for 1K. Went 4-0 on heavy favorites and bet the runline. Today he wants NYY RL. My book has it at -120. I told him its -135. I'm not a big baseball fan but all signs tell me Yankees crush red sox today. Any advice on booking this myself or not would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Anything could happen, but I think Yankees are the play here. What can I say about that Boston that hasn't already been said about Afghanistan? They're bombed out and depleted. (Silky Johnson). The Yankees gotta win for playoff positioning and their ace is on the mound.

No pedroia or ellsbury tonight. Yanks should roll...Red sox probably going to lay down the series because they dont want Balty to win the division me thinks.

I always say be careful what you wish for ... these are professional athletes on both sides and I don't think 'laying down' is something that's in their DNA. Sure looks lopsided on paper but sometimes the ball takes some funny bounces. Do you think Boston dislikes Baltimore more than the Yanks. Wouldn't they love to knock them out of winning the division.

The Redsox laying down a series to the Yankees so Baltimore wont make the playoffs? Laying down a series to the evil empire? You must not watch must Baseball with this comment.

If you are picking and choosing which ones you are going to book, you are just a bettor. Take them all over time.

I agree with that but this one really scares me and he wants to win $400. I told him its -135. Line is actually -120-125, so in getting much better odds. He has $540 to win $400

Its up to -133 at my book. Take it for -148
