Hm, I would need some additional explaining about this "to win" or "risk" things, you see I'm not American and we don't use such things here, it's only about the stake here.

Ok now, I'm 3 hours before the first pitch, so if anyone can help me out until then I'd be grateful.

I would like to take LA Dodgers (Penny) and the opening line is -154 if I'm not mistaking. What now?
Can I stake 1 unit on LAD -154, is that fine?

:shake: thanks in advance.

you would be staking 1.54 units to win 1 unit

or 3.08 to win 2 etc etc

If your play is a dog +130 lets say, you would be staking 1 unit to win 1.3, or 2 units to win 2.6

Say your card looks like this

-150 loss
+120 win
-175 win
-120 loss

all were 1 unit plays your record for the night would be 2-2 -0.50 units
 
Ok I think I get it. I'll take the following play:

Dodgers (Penny) (RL) (opening line: +135) 2 units to win 2.70.

Is that ok? I can post one play only can't I.

Alan you can use up to 5 units total on multiple plays, not just one. You can not RISK more than 5 units in any one day though, or wager more than 2 units on a dog, or win more than 2 units on a favorite.
 
Tough break last night as LA won by 1.

Anyways.

Units Wagered: 2
Daily Record: 0-1

Only one for tonight so far:

SF (Zito) (RL) +145 2 units to win 2.90

Satyr, copied your post into the Daily LInes threads, tomorrow can you post in both your own thread in that. just makes it easier for us to grade so we went with it.

We all have the learning curve, lol.

Since I'm not the best friend of American odds, so do tell me if I did something wrong, I think Nick and Santa explained it to me well but there's a possibility of course that I messed up again.
