Going to parlay the folling individually to (NBA) Los Angeles {Cashline-145} Over Minnesota:

(1)Houston(Miller)-145 Over Cincinnati(Lidle)
(2)Arizona(Johnson)/Florida(Willis) Under 7.5

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hedge from Yesterday's Action:

Will wager 80 on (NBA) Minnesota Cashline 5 minutes prior to gametime. Line currently +125
Hoping to get better odds just prior to gametime.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

good luck today,

baz

note: will be posting updated results for season later today.

Hedging Earlier Arizona/Florida Under 7.5 with Los Angeles (-145 cashline) parlay:

Have decided to wager 80 on Minnesota +125

baz

No Play's Today.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Results of plays and hedge from May 20th:


A Minnesota win would return a +662.80 profit + the 250 wagered on (Atl/Oak/SD-St.L) = 912.80 Total Return.
Minus the -300 Lost on the Early wagers (Chicago,Houston and Boston) resulting in a profit of +362.80

Hedging
600 on Los Angles Lakers -1.5 {-105} would produce this result:
Returns (.952 X 600 = 571.42 in profits + 600 Hedge Wager= 1171.452 Total Return

1171.42 Total Return - 550 Lost from earlier wagers(Chi/Hou/Bos/Atl/Oak/SD-St.Louis) and Laker 600 wager= +21.42 Overall Profit.


A Minnesota win:
Would Return a total of 912.80 - 900 (300 Chi/Hou/Bos wagers} + 600 Laker wager)
912.80 - 900 = +12.80 Profit.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's say that I wagered the would be profit's of +662.80 from the early parlay's on the Lakers-1.5(.952)

A Minnesota win:
Returns 912.80 (250 wagerd + 662.80 profits - 912.80 (600 Laker wager + 300 lost (Chi/Hou/Bos) = -0-
{Breaks even}

A Los Angeles Lakers win @ -1.5(.95.23):
Returns the intial wager of 662.80 + 630.98 profit = 1293.78 Total returned
1293.78 - (662.80 + 550 Early Parlays- Chi/Hou/Bos/Atl/Oak/SD-St.Louis) = +80.98

Since I had a strong opinion on Los Angeles, I should have wagered 662.80 instead of the 600.

Overall profit for the day: +21.42

==================================================================
==================================================================

Overall Record So Far This Season:


33-27 Favorites
6-7 Underdogs
7-8 Runline
12-4 Overs
4-5 Unders
-----------------
62-51 Overall (+ 771.79)

Based on 100.00 bet per play.
A half Unit + 50.00 per play.
1/4 Unit = 25.00 per play.


thanks,

The Cashline on Detroit Over Indiana around -210
Still can get 9.5 at WSEX on the Minnesota/TampaBay
and 8.5 for the Atlanta game.
For the most part, the lines moved moved in favor of Minn/TB Over
and the Atlanta Under fell in most cases an entire Run which is a strong move.

good luck today,

baz

What a day.
Detroit and Baltimore Bullpens give up 7 runs in the 9th to blow the Under.
The run pushing the game Over coming with 2 outs in the bottom of the inning.
Then the next batter ends the game: 7-3 Baltimore (bad luck).
Changed channels in disgust to a game I was actually winning.
Boston enters the top of the 8th up 5-1, Schilling is cruising.
ooophs...6 runs later it's 7-5 Seattle (some more bad luck).
Fortunately, Boston scores 2 to tie it in the bottom of the inning to tie and
McCarthy hits a walk off 2 run homer in the 12 to cover the runline the only way it
could have been covered(good luck).
Luck. Sometimes it better to be lucky than good.
In Baltimore/Detroit 9th and Seattle/Boston 8th:

15 hits and 6 BB's (one IBB) and 15 Er's.
A combined 33.75 Era.

Welcome to the Big Show.

=====================================================================

Hedging: 35 on Arizona @ +163 (Pinnacle)

Note: Atlanta and Cincinnati NO ACTION

Like my chances with LA.

=====================================================================

ChicagoWhiteSox's and San Francisco both won. Will hedge off later as the line
appears to be moving higher. Currently -8.5 Los Angeles and +430 on the cashline.
Cashline has jumped from Lakers -410 to -510. Sentiment is strongly in favor of
the Lakers winning game 6.

Lakers 42-7(85.7%) at Home. (+9.9 point margin)
Minnesota Away 29-19 at Away (+1.2 point margin)

Lakers 7-0 with +13.0 point margin @ Home during playoffs.
Minnesota 2-5 with -8.7 point margin Away during the playoffs.

good luck tonight,

[b]Still would wait til late as reasonablly possible.

Believe that Indiana without a completely healthy O'Neal
will be hardpressed to defeat Detroit at Home.
Piston's are 37-13 @ Home (64%).

good luck today,

<small>[ June 02, 2004, 04:28 PM: Message edited by: bazanster2 ]</small>

Adding the follwing Parlays:

1/2 Unit each:

(1) New York Yankees(Contreras) -168 Over Baltimore(Dubose)
with
Boston(Martinez) -160 Over Anaheim(Washburn)

(2) Arizona(Johnson)-197 Over San Francisco(Tomko)
with
New York Yankees(Contreras)/Baltimore(BuBose) Over 10.5 {-114}

Parlaying the following to Atlanta(Thomson)-125 Over Philadelphia(Hancock or Any)

30 on:

(1) New York Yankees(Vazquez)-1.5runs {+105} runs Over Baltimore(Cabrera or Any)

20 on:

(2) Baltimore(Cabrera or Any)-1.5 runs{+258} Over New York Yankees(Vazquez)


15 of the last 20 meetings have been decided by 2 or more.
The last 2 games have been decided by one run. Think that the odds are
against 3 meetings in a row being decided by one run.
Going to make a small wager and then hedge off with Philadelphia +115 or more
just prior to the game.

=============================================================================

Yesterday, I forgot to type in

(3) Texas(Dickey) -1.5 runs(+160) Over Cleveland(Westbrook)
"with
New York Yankees(Contreras)-172 Over Baltimore(Dubose)"

I did it going the other way with Cleveland(Westbrook) -1.5 runs.
The failure to do this was the difference between being Up +15.35
and being down -18.50 for the day.
It's been a tough week with a lot of tough losses and some poor hedging
on my part. Just going to have to shake it off and bear down.

Result so far for this Season:

+640.93 (would be +674.78 if one counted yesterday's Texas/NYY parlay)

Favorites: 42-35
Underdogs: 6-8
Runline: 7-8
Overs: 12-4
Unders: 4-5

Overall: 62-51

good luck today,

baz
