Previous Day Summary: I gotta give props to Killer Kev: he called the Lakers to win by 3 points yesterday by the water cooler. I was gonna take Lakers with the points but he convinced me to take money line. Solid.

I like the New Yorkers to explode today for my MLB picks and the Celtics to win a nail-biter. I haven't missed a basketball pick since May 13 on Paper Chaser. I only missed Lakers Game 3 in Vegas but that's only cause my friend persuaded me to take LA (I wanted Spurs and I told them to take Spurs 2nd half). I also had Celtics money line on Game 3 and Lakers to cover on Game 2. Killing!

Yea man I've been dragging with the blog a lot lately.

I've been thinking about trying to come up with a goofy martingale experiment betting Score or No Score on 1st inning in MLB games.

Still have to do some backtracking but I'll have a write up on the blog later this week. Might work, might make me go broke.


GL on your picks.

thanks man.

i'm not sure about the first inning stuff. i would think no score happens a lot more often.

might work or might go broke? that's gambling isn't it? hah.

just jump on paper chaser. the picks are going good. i'm just gonna bet home teams now for baseball unless it's the yankees or some team that is red hot (ie A's).

i'm trying to get this bankroll over 1k! new strategy...

3 or less picks per day.
mostly home teams for mlb.
nba picks.
no hockey hah.

Yea I was initially leaning to the No Score also.

But I just ran some numbers for the week of 5/19-5/25 and the numbers weren't too reassuring, lol.

96 Games played.

47 Games-No Score in 1st

49 Games- Score in 1st.


Obviously this is an extremely small sample, so I'll see if there's any trend what so ever as well as choosing only games with a decent pitcher starting.


And I think staying away from Hockey games is a good idea, lol.

yeah man, in vegas i parlayed celtics money line with the penguins money line. red wings raped them. busted parlay!
