Wait a minute, I thought we were in Scalp 101 right now.Hey! Good to see you again! I don't bet at the moment, just in here asking stupid questions...
I think we decided that it was a waste of time. A 100% return in 12 years if the stars are aligned correct... wooohoooooo

missed out on the cards and the cubs getting fixed - literally; nothing to do for the next two day but lay on the couch with ice on my package and gamble - trying to pick a couple of winners before the local wears off and i have to reaach for the Tylenol III with Codine!

No no, not at all. I think it's a great idea! The only thing I need to set up is 10 accounts with the 600K of spare change I have laying around off shore...I am sure this can be done, it's just funny to have such a serious and money heavy discussion in here where most people play way below 1K per game. There's really no point in doing this unless you have a serious bank roll. For my purposes, let's say I have $600 in my books, and to make 600 more I have to spend 12 years? I rather dink and dunk and pull in the same money on 1 football season. Let's say at $50 bucks a play I need to make a 12unit profit over the season. Seems very possible to me...How did it feel to dash his dreams by doing like, 2 minutes of math?Wait a minute, I thought we were in Scalp 101 right now.Hey! Good to see you again!

Being a consistant winner does have some benefits. Not to include you in the mass of losers though. I was merely stating a fact. Continue with your message board life though, I'm not here to judge.Gambler, your posts are a lot more coherent than I remember. Have you given up the sauce?

He would drop 100k to show every now and then.Anyway, I was 15. I realized how stupid I was when I turned 16.

As a public service, I'll try and stick with it. But it sure gets tough reading it sometimes. Plus I'm afraid prolonged exposure will make me dumber.

Might I suggest chasing the Codine w/ Alright, made a few small plays before I leave work for this evening.
Parlay:
Philly -1.5 (Myers)/SF -1.5 (Schmidt) 1 unit to win 3.5
Give me the two much better starting pitchers against two weak hitting teams....take my chances. Philly is a team in flux right now, but that lineup can put up a ton of runs on any given night. I get their ace tonight, and they're at home....what's not to like?
SF is making a playoff run, and have their ace on the hill tonight too. I'll fade Pittsburgh any day of the week.
Parlay for fun (.25 units to win 2 units)
AZ/Houston under 9
Seattle (Hernandez)
Detroit (Miner)
I'm counting Houston about out of the playoffs. They can't hit, they can't pitch, their just aboutdone. Plus, Berkman reaggravated a groin injury last night, and if he's out, who's going to hit for them? Neither starting pitcher is great, but I can see AZ rolling here, like 4-1 or 5-1. If Houston wins, it's going to be even lower scoring than that.
Seattle is simply taking the better starter.
Should be a close game, I'll take my chances with King Felix.
Detroit is too much value to pass up. Don't care that I'm going against Liriano, I'm getting +172 with the best team in baseball. Detroit's road record is an eye-popping 35-16 and Liriano may be a great pitcher, but he's a rookie, and he can't hit. Figured I'd take my chances here.

home games or card rooms? The home games in Houston is pretty decent, but most likes to play NL Tournaments that takes a lot of time, with only decent prizes.. Sup old timer? No bases for me either, been playing about 40-50 hours of poker a week online and live. I just come in here to poke fun at the thread "Corky" and fade him every once and a while. Getting ready for fb, you going to be around in the fall?
Online I play the 215/530 SnG's at Party. Home games I play in a few, mostly small tourneys and NL cash games. Although my ring game is a "work in progress" right now.home games or card rooms?

Gotcha... I got burned out on online play this spring, and forced myself to step away for a while. I played way too much, and even though I made decent money it just became a grind after a while. I am enjoying myself playing live in Cali, where I'm at for another week, and are starting to get the itch back again.Online I play the 215/530 SnG's at Party.

I wish there were card rooms here. I enjoy mixing it up live and online. But I here you on the burnout, I don't play everyday. But I usually play a couple marathon sessions a week.

Anyone looking at Pedro on the mound for the mets tonight fresh off DL. Historically, coming off the DL has not been friendly to starters this season, but I had to take it as one of my lines.

I'm bored. which is never a good thing.
3 Units:
Washington +111 - simple play. One team is hot. One team is a disaster.
1 Unit on each...
Baltimore -114 - I'll be the sacrificial lamb here. Sort of think Chicago's fall is more systemic than others might believe.
Mariners +110 - This one smells a little fishy to me, but I'm biting.
Oakland EV - Loaiza aways a scary ride, but Toronto's SP doesn't frighten me at all. A's at home trying to win their 3rd in a row. I'm in.
Boston -139 - Boston playing great ball. Like them to continue the hot play.
$15 Parlay
Florida +145
Pittsburgh +140
Gonna keep backing Florida for now. Shorting the Giants, even if Schmidt is on the hill.
$65 Parlay
Twins -200
Yanks -245
Miner's been sniffed out now and the Twins are on fire. Yanks should beat Tampa, right?
Big card. Sometimes you gotta just say "what the fuuuuuuuuuuuck"

I have to think Pedro is 100%, maybe even better than we he started the season.
ATL giving up a couple to Florida helps the cause too. Yea ATL had a hot streak after the break, but I don't see them beating pedro.

i know that Miner's peripherals do not support his stats thus far. He is due for a bad outing and I think tonight might be that night. I don't like laying a lot of chalk so I am going on the Det/Minn over 8 -114 
bos-144 - gotta love Lester on the hill and Escobar in just his second start since returning from the DL
cws +108- see Hoard
cincy +106- see above
ATL/NYM O9 -103 - Pedro comes back from the DL and Ramirez's middle name means gas can in Spanish
AZ/Hou O9 = Look at the ballpark, not a quality starter on either side, AZ can score, Hou not so much, esp with Berkman out but I still thinks it goes over
all of the above are for one unit
and of course 1 ridiculous parlay 10 to nearly win a K
Philadelphia Phillies(-172)
San Francisco Giants -157
Atlanta Braves (+136)
Arizona D-Backs/Houston Astros (O 9) (-110)
Cincinnati Reds (+105)
Chicago White Sox (+107)
Oakland Athletics Game (-105)

Actually it worse that i have a couple of losers right now - of course, the booze helps, but it really is just sore more thananything - besides - i have homework to rid myself of live sperm as much as possible after a few days and an all too willie hottie eager to please!!!!!!! That is what three kids under the age of ten ( me - 1; her 2) will do for you.
