MLB '10 Season Long

MLB '10 Season Long Ok, first off I will be posting all my plays in this thread. MLB has been my strongest sport in previous years. Unlike my NHL thread which I gave upon right before the Olympic break and never continued I will make it a point to go through the entire season on MLB. As stated in other threads I play a mixture of flat bets and chase systems. I will not go into detail on the exact nature of the systems, some will be easy to figure out others will not. I will post next to each play if it is a SPOT play (flat bet) or SYSTEM play (chase). Please understand on the system plays I do not martingale per say, I use a custom method developed by a friend to limit risk and assume chase losses without crippling the bankroll. You will see bigger unit bets eventually when chases get longer. Most chases will be limited to 3-4 game chases. The SPOT plays will be in a 1-3 unit amounts. Spot plays will include Sides, Totals, 1st 5inning Sides/Totals and Team totals. My goal in this thread is to produce a 80-100 unit winning season. Will be difficult, but it *IS* realistic and I have done it in the past.
Ok, lets get it going... 1 spot play today.. Systems should kick in gear very soon... Spot Play: LAD/FLO - YES score 1st Inning -115 @ thegreek... 1.15/1.00u This prop on FLO was big money last year let's see how it goes this year.
System: (YTD 0.0u) CWS +131...1u/1.31 MIL -137...1.37/1.00u LAA -167...1.67/1.00u HOU +144...1u/1.44 FLO -139...1.39/1.00u BAL -140...1.40/1.00u Spot: (YTD 0-1 -1.15u) None good luck
Saturday System 2-4... -2.77 System: (YTD: +2.00u, 2.77u pending series chases) CWS...-121... 2.42/2u MIL...+130... 1.82/2.37u BAL...-116... 2.78/2.4u HOU...+172... 1.16/2u This system does take losses, as its only a 2game chase. On these plays we martingale for 2games with a loss recovery money management strategy on future series. Filters come into play after a couple weeks of stats also. The main systems, 3/4game chases may have some plays next week depending on tomorros results. Spot: (YTD 0-1 -1.15u) none for the moment. mags

made a mistake on the pending units chase, should read: System: (YTD: +2.00u, Pending Chases: -4.77u) plays/amounts remain the same.
You realize, I hope, that if you don't have an edge in the games you bet, this technique will not win. If you do have an edge, then your goal should be to maximize the advantage relative to the bankroll you have to work with. Assuming that's all under control, betting in this fashion is OK.
Anthony, With all due respect, I have heard all the lectures about chase systems not working etc...etc... I beg to differ. I have been running MLB chase systems for 5+ seasons and have done very well. There is much more involved than simply doubling down on losses as most do. I am posting here to document the entire seasons progression to a goal of 80-100 units. As the owner of the site, if you think this is not acceptable or puts any members at risk of blindly following etc... I will be glad to stop, it is your house after all. My bankroll can and has withstood MAJOR losses over the years and has always grown when running such strategies. mags
I don't mind you posting it at all, but the proviso was necessary. It's a fact -- you must have an edge in the wagers to win long-term (unless you're playing a tournament). Just wanted that point made.
Might be some additions a bit later... System: (YTD +4.00u , Pending Chases: NONE, Loss Recovery: -6.34, NET YTD -2.34) Monday: Detroit (g1 of 3)... -200... 3.00/1.5u Seattle (g1 of 3)... -120... 1.80/1.5u Spot: (YTD 0-1 -1.15u) none for the moment. mags
Plays/amounts coming in a little while.. yesterdays recap/record below. System: (YTD +4.00u , Pending Chases: DET(-3.00u),SEA (-1.8u) , Loss Recovery: -6.34u, NET YTD -2.34u) Monday: 0-2, -4.8u Spot: (YTD 0-1 -1.15u) none for the moment.
