Large Card today:
CHC +155 - Garza rights the listing ship today. I think CHC gets a Win against Miley
CIncy TT O 4.5 - 120 - Diamond gets lit up at the GAP
Tex TT O 6 -115 Ditto for White in TX
Was/Bal O9 -120: Both offense are due to explode and neither starter gives me a ton of confidence
STL -1.5 +110 Lynn rights the ship here after being awful his last time out.
NYM (first 5) +105 CC is not going to put up zeros and Dickey has literally been a force to reckon with.

Big fan of the Yanks over the Mets tonight at -125
I know Dickey's been good, but it's Sabathia and it's the Yankees and it's only -125

Careful, man. I am a Yanks fan and I would not make that bet with YOUR money. C.C. has been merely average this year. And Dickey hasn't been "good"... he's been unhittable. He doesn't have a Hough/Niekro/Wakefield knuckleball. He throws his about 15-20 mph faster. It is silly effective.Obviously, I hope you win your bet, but

Yeah - Dickey's been solid. Maybe was hasty, but I have some extra Heat money lying around now and there's nothing else on tonight.

A 6.5 total in a Yankee game. I'm gonna go ahead and say that's pretty rare for a regular season game.

I miss Thursday night college football. A lot.
NBA over - there ain't #### to do now but bet on baseball and Wimbledon for a few months.

And for those who do tail.
Here are my Wimbledon plays as of right now:
Novak Djokovic +125 to win the tournament. Not sure I've ever been as sure in a tennis bet as I am about this one. Djoker is taking Wimbledon this year. I'm rolling 4 units up on this and you all know what a Rafa rumpswab I am.
and my usual early round Parlays:
06/25/12Novak Djokovic-7500
08:00 ET
Wimbledon - First Round Match
06/25/12Benjamin Becker-400

06/25/12Igor Andreev-350

06/26/12Juan Martin Del Potro-1400

10 units to win 7.62 units.
This is basically free money.

It probably is, but do yourself a favor and see what the parlay would pay without Fed in it. At -10000, the extra few bucks probably isn't worth the outside, outside chance that he is forced to retire with a freak injury. JMO.

My best advice if you want to play tennis matchups is to use the early rounds to add money to the bet in a lock parlay.
i.e. - If you really like Troicki at -170
Instead of betting it at -170 - bet it in a parlay with Andy Murray/Raphael Nadal/Federer/Djoker and make it a bet that's 1 unit to win .73 units instead of 1 bet to win 5.88 units.
Those 4 are not losing in Round 1 of Wimbledon

Yeah and if that happens, I am prepared to just sigh and deal with it to be honest.
I like these early rounds as described above to take one of my low money leans and match em up with the Big 4 Wimbledon guys.
i.e. - I kinda like Chela at +160. As long as your book offers it, no reason not to just roll it up with the big 4 in a parlay IMO

Was just coming here to ask the same. I got redirected to a new site. 20-cent baseball lines! Kurt-is this for real?
oukurt
Footballguy
No. My new connection in Costa Rica is on the ball. Talk about instant customer service. The 20 cent lines were default. I got it moved to the regular 10 cent lines just a few minutes ago. So far so good with the new site. Still want to test the waters and see how it goes with the new site. Looks promising.

Tennis betting 101: read the sportsbook rules, some sites only require 1 set to be completed, other sites require 2 sets 
Had Stepanek today, blows out Stakhovsky 6-1 in the first set, up 1-0 2nd set and Stak retires, I'm excited until I see this particular sportsbook requires 2 full sets

I'm glad I didn't bet it, I couldn't pull the trigger against the Yanks & didn't want to be on the other side of JB. I didn't watch the game (was watching the Rangers) but feel sad for Dickey.
