Like you bet the Braves -1.5 and they win 5-4, would you rather them just Lose the Game outright ?

Only person to be pissed at is yourself if you are betting runlines in baseball.

Justo, like everything, they have their place. Mostly just to entice stooges to lose their money. One run games are a significant likelihood in baseball.

And... the +1.5 often comes at a prohibitive dollar price, so quite a risk there as well.

I did it a lot last year vs the Astros and it benefited me. I knew every 3 or 4th game on average they would get blown out. Same with Padres team total this year.

I only get pissed when my team blows a nice comfortable lead. Then I cheer for the other team even though my team is still capable of coming back and winning by two. My mental illness is hard to cover up sometimes.

The first step to recovery is admitting you got it!

OBVIOUSLY if you're going to bet Run Lines wouldn't it be a great idea to pull up each team's results and see how often their Wins and Losses are by 2+ Runs? And then break it down to Road and Home?


For instance, what % of Braves Home Wins are by 2+? What % of Mets Road Losses are by 2+? Etc....

Click to expand...

Yes, hahaha

You take the chance on the + money as opposed to laying the high #...

Run lines are good if using in parlays. You're not risking a heap and at possibly plus money you can make out.

Hate it when I bet the home team on the run line, up by 2 or more runs going in to the top of the ninth and the other team comes back to within a run. Game over. home team wins but I lose. Always a risky play.
