Series and Salami's

So do both the games of the Mets/cubs double header count toward it?
Yes sir.

I debated taking the Slammy Under today, but they had it juiced at 141.5 -115 (8.84 runs per game)
...mid-season days with a game at Coors have been profitable to the salami Under for the past decade.

Alas, I went with the plus price on Away and I'm hoping the Braves, Dodgers and M's can land it.

Catch ya at the pay window.
 
Monday Salami

2u
Home Runs +105
...Dodgers and Brew Crew sizable home faves as anchors for the play, plus I like Zona, Oakland, Balty and the Tigers as home dogs.

2u
Salami Total Runs Under 107.5 +100
...8.96 runs per game is too high even with Great American, Fenway and Chase Field games on the slate.
 
Always enjoy seeing what you doing w these as I’ve never tried attaching this way and always on lookout for new angles!! Gl buddy
 
I wouldn’t count on brew crew today bro, they shouldn’t be that big a fav imo. Rox one the best lhp hitting teams in baseball and milw down toward bottom the pack! Maybe milw wins it late w their pen but I think they struggle vs Freeland and expect rox to knock Ashby around a bit!!! That line feels way off to me!!

Not counting on them too much....I've got the Rockies FF moneyline at +155 in my pocket.
1-0 Colorado after five..final score 12-1 Milwaukee. ;)

GL tonight banker.
 
Lodolo 4k’s in 1st 2 innings! 2 more to go! Man it was so awesome it finally got bet down to 5.5 when I got up to casino!! That almost never happens! Usually they go the other direction on me!!!
 
Yea I always thought that sucked.
Back in the salad days, the boys and I were utterly convinced that we were getting our aces cracked on Paradise Poker at a way higher rate than we should.
So we started to keep track...turns out our rockets were holding about 79% of the time--right about where they should be.

Over the years, the aces cracked counter has morphed into the salami rain out tracker:
Sewered a winner -- 40%
Bailed out a loser -- 50%
Hard to tell whether it hurt or helped -- 10%

We had rox pegged!! Couldn’t believe that line considering the pitching matchup and how well rox hit lhp and how poorly milw does!

Good news is WC games rarely if ever get rained out so you have a little knowledge in advance.

Rox snow outs happen early, but I don't remember a Rangers game getting completely shelved and doubt LA, SD, SF or Oak have since I've paid attention. Everyone else has roofs.
 
Weekend warm-up Salami

2u
Salami Over 93.5 +108
...a dog's breakfast of pitchers on today's slate, so I'm taking the price on an average 9.35 runs per game..looking for high teens from both Great American and Coors.
 
Thursday Series Chalktastic 5-teamer

1u +535

Astros -205
Yankees -370
Angels -205
Dodgers -315
Giants -140
 
Friday Slammy

2u
Salami Away Runs +140
...obviously looking for big things from the Dodgers at Coors, but also like getting the Brew Crew at Fenway as well as those frisky Orioles in Great American. Plus, a bunch of the big road dogs have a decent chance of keeping things close, imo. Royals, Tigers and A's are all live pups at huge prices.
 
Halfway point of summer weekend series wagers:

1u
3-teamer +271

Mets -145
Brewers -155
Braves -300

1u
Twins +120

1u
Indians +135
 
Thanks.

Too many decent hurlers getting the ball today for an 8.77 run per game total, despite the Coors, Great American and Fenway affairs.

If things look dubious early, I'll just blow a call in to @King Slap and tell him to start shedding layers.

"What's his big toe doing up there?"
 
The price on balty seems crazy, almost fishy. I love me some gray but he not gonna pitch more than 6 innings so that leaves 3 innings of a crappy pen and are rangers really gonna score that much? Prob not.

Fishy AF...I figure they're just guessing about what could happen for the trade deadline. Tough to line a series between two teams that'll likely be 'sellers'.

I sure wish balty would add, they seem so close, if they didn’t play in the freaking east! I assumed they just showing gray a ton of respect, he really has been fantastic at home! I don’t trust rangers to score much tho and he not gonna pitch the entire game, balty get to see at least a few innings of rangers crappy pen. Maybe they still not giving O’s the proper respect? Seemed like they were when they played tampa but then they were dogged a few times to Reds over weekend and did drop 2 of them. Rangers certainly have the starting pitcher edge but not sure it warrants this price tag?

Yeah, slight edge to Texas SP's as of today's rosters...we'll see what it looks like after 4pm MDT tomorrow.

Good call, Mancini a Astro now, that prob Fuck up balty locker room. It would bum me out if we trying to compete for 1st time ever and gm trading guys away!!
 
Weekend Series

1u
Reds +260
...the Brew Crew seem like they've had their heart ripped out by the Hader trade
 
Sunday Salami

2.10u
Home Runs -105

...15 games, 7 road faves and a couple of those faves don't score in bunches (i.e. Rays, Giants).
Sunday morning is not the time to overthink things.
 
Thursday Salami

2u
Away Runs +120

1.2u
Under 74.5 runs -120
...day game at Coors as well as the cornfield and Fenway this evening. 9.31 runs per game is pretty steep, even with those parks hosting. The field of dreams is the wildcard.

Friday Salami

1u
Away Runs +125
...looking for the two big NL West road faves to get me to the window

1.2u
Under 123.5 runs -120
....same logic as yesterday--8.82 runs per game is a big ask, even with Coors and Fenway hosting
 
I havnt looked at pitching matchups past tonight but that a heck of a price to back O’s for series! No way do I think that number is a fair representation of their chances to win this series, I think tonight really a coin flip which in itself makes better than 2-1 they win 2 out of whack imo, even if the pitching in next 2 sets up favorably for jays.

Hell all 3 of them really, dunno if you win them but I’d say you for sure getting good value on them all.
 
So I’ve asked this before (dunno if it was you I asked or one the other guys who play series), when they 4 game series I thought they only counted the 1st 3 games but I see DK offering +400 on oak to win series but there also a tie option at +165, draft kings maybe does it differently but the +150 you got is in fact for just the 1st 3 games in the series? I have no doubt DK price on oak plus the fact there a tie option means they gotta win 3 of 4 to cash?

Yessir, my wager is the first 3 games of the series.

Does Draft Kings offer prices as the series plays out? i.e. is there a line on this Rangers/A's series up today?
 
Tuesday Salami

2u
Away runs +110

1u
Total Runs Over 127.5 +103
...right at 8.5 runs per game. I'll be looking for the fightin' Phils to get me a bunch in Great American.
