3 Wise Men Report Monday 6/13/05

[CoverBoy]

Decent Day Yesterday ( and 31-21 for the week )

but ….

So many times in the last few weeks there has been 1 game which stops us from having a monster day. Yesterday our fly in the ointment was Pittsburgh, who miraculously tied their game up in the bottom of the 9th and had a golden opportunity to win it in the 10th , only to lose in the 13th on a 2 run homer by Alex Sanchez, the world famous Joe DiMaggioesque shoe - in future Hall of Famer . " Splinter - Ass " Sanchez closed his good eye , made a pass at a baseball , and then hit The Lottery. Even a congested pig can sniff out a truffle … but it only happens once in a blue moon.

We loosened up the rules this past weekend , played some high line games ,and I know you're wondering about that. There were 2 reasons actually. 1) because we felt a nice run coming on , and 2 ) I get the feeling that most of you are allowed to lay 1 run for much less vig than the standard High Line - Money Line Play.

Please let us know if you are able or not to lay 1 run in high line games. This way we can gear our selections accordingly.

One more note …. Lately our play - on teams have been leaving stranded way too many men on base , especially in the late innings. This trend has got to stop immediately.

It's a new week and greed never takes a day off so Let's Go .


The Plays For Monday:

National League:

1 ½* Chicago Cubs RL (+1 ½ -110 )

1 ½* Chicago White Sox -175 ( Lay 1 Run for a reasonable Vig )

1* Texas -135

Note: If you can not lay 1 Run with the White Sox consider a 3 team Parlay with

Washington RL +1 ½

100 pays 306

Or … if you are feeling adventurous play each straight. Use judgment.

Good Luck today Guys! -1 sounds like a good idea.

GL Today Gents!

I can lay -1 at Pinny. Thats how I played the above Sox play at -128.

[lowrider66]

I can't get the -1 RL... I just either parlay the high lines or break steadfast wisemen rule and lay 1.5. When I lay 1.5, I play for half the units and I also play for half the units on the ML. So if a team wins by 1 run I hit the ML and lose the RL, basically breaking even, but if a team loses I lose a lot less juice then on a high line RL play.

Thanks for your work today and keep on grinding it out.

Thanks CB and good luck to everyone this week. I have no problems laying 1 run.

[bhs4life]

Gl Guys I Also Lay 1 Run @ Pinny

[turfaccountant]

1 Run Lay

I can't lay -1 at my book, but the advice Ki66 gave about splitting the units between the ML and -1 1/2 sure sounds good to me! Thanks again for all your help and lets roll this baby all the way to the last pitch of the World Series...Bookies Beware....It is OER TIME NOW and you had your 15 minutes of fame!!!!GO WISE MEN!!!!

[BigWeiner]

Everyone can lay -1. Just play the runline for whatever you win on the moneyline. Example
White Sox ML $185 to win $100. White Sox RL $100 to win $135. Your betting $285 to win $235, if the White Sox win by 1, you push.
