I am shutting it down for baseball season.
Have had just a terrible run of capping and have not caught any luck to compensate for my bad handicapping. This is the time of year i always lose as well.
Here are my end of year stats
updated baseball record
season record to date:
future - reds over 77 wins 1150 to win 1000
favorites 39-47- -17.81 units
dogs 47-54 +3.83 units
overs 10-6-2 +4.05 units
unders 38-16-2 +20.05 units
Exotics -$1087.00
I also had an unposted salami tonight which i lost. I never won a salami the entire year. lol. This accounts for my posted record. Everything is documented in my time to post threads and i do not believe that i ever edited a single official plays post. In other words , I went out of my way to make sure it was all verifiable for anyone who might have been tailing( poor souls ). What you see is what you get. I also do not believe I have made any math errors as far as units are concerned since my signature results match those of my carryover numbers from thread to thread. I try to be as forthright as possible and as clear as possible. In the gambling business we are only as good as our word. Of course, not every play I made was posted, and telling you how those bets did would be meaningless anyway. But in order to be completely straight forward , I thought I would mention that there were a few unposted plays. Sometimes you just can't get to the computer. There was also a small unit size adjustment in june. Again , meaningless for the purposes of this thread but just to be completely forthright.
AS you can see by my results , totals were exceptional. <!-- / message --><!-- sig -->Overs and unders, I definitely was locked in this year. I have some very solid under angles at the start of the baseball season that lose some steam as the season progresses. This was a way above average year for me as far as totals percentage winners. 48-22-4 68.57%
The bad news is two-fold when it comes to my sides. I hit my favorites at a horrendous rate, going 39-47. Now, I do not play large favorites so the percentage won't be as good as a lot of peoples favorites wagers in baseball. Still, 45.3 percent is a pretty bad percent when laying juice and my average price laid on favorites this year was slightly greater than the last few. The result was a punishing 17.81 unit deficit on favorites. Dogs, I also hit at a bad rate. 47-54 but managed a profit from the plus money of 3.83 units. The average price of my dogs was also smaller than the last few years. Obviously, i am a road team bettor in baseball and this was a bad year for road teams. I think I posted some stats in another thread pointing out the statistical anomoly that is home teams records this year
Want to thank everyone who took the time to read my baseball threads this year. I did get burned out on the writeups a few months in. Also, want to thank everyone who wished me well. A special thanks to the following people that helped me a lot in the baseball forum this year. If i forget you, its not my fault.
the umpire guys -- shorty , rex , gwarner, and the rest of you. Great stuff with the umpires. Shorty , thanks for answering my dumb PMs concerning different possible angles in regards to umpires, stadiums and so forth. CKR you know you have my respect and enjoyed some of those ingames immensely.
sportsnut -- thanks for all your input in the discussion threads. Often I found a different angle from your posts that i hadnt considered before.
bluechip--thanks for being an intelligent ( no matter what counselor says about you ) and enjoyable person to bounce thoughts off of all year.
Betcrimes -- thanks for the stats threads and your thoughts in the baseball discussion threads.
Tuck- thanks for adding perspectives and angles that are not at the forefront of the way inwhich i cap. Also thank you for always being straightforward in agreement or disagreement. Honesty , whether a person wants to hear it or not , is always the best approach in handicapping and any part of the gambling business.
The threads .... thanks to unicorn for excellent writeups , thanks to yanks for late night discussions early in the year... as yanks disappeared so did a lot of my profits. Thanks to alex for running the baseball contest. Thanks to cisco and $$$inmywallet for the systems threads.
Thanks to scdoggy, timh , sportsthing, jdpsorts , jimbo , cap , vap , smokedawg, emkee , vthokies , houdini hile , satyr etc etc etc .. i cant remember them all so apologize to others.
I also want to take this moment to say we lost a really nice person in pacman this year. RIP pacman.
Final thank you to Tendog. Thanks for always being a person of positivity in my threads.
See you all again next year. I will be found in the college football forums pretty regularly from here until january.
:cheers: 134-123-4 +10.12 units
reds over 77 wins pending for 1150 to win 1000
exotics -1087.
Cleaning up my signature after this post.
