The ode to the pass during a a small bad patch

Saturday I went 2-4 in baseball, but was fortunate by only losing one full unit. I will keep harping on it and when my point is made I will bring it up again. Going into Friday I was 20-14 +7.90 units. Not earth shattering, but respectable.

Friday and Saturday combined 3 wins 7 losses, with a total loss of 2.90 units. you may be saying well what a loser, and for those two day I was a loser, but to only lose 2.90 units is a great feat. If it was the NBA 3-7 would equal a loss of -4.40 units, again you may be saying whats the big deal? the average player will play 30 to 40 games a week and that savings of 1.5 units every 10 plays does add up.

I never plan on losing, as none of us ever do but bad streaks do happen. Overall I now stand at 23-21 +5.00 units and in a spread sport this would be a losing proposition. Just using the current numbers, playing 100 per game I would be down 10 dollars. With money line wagers I am actually up 500 dollars. I love the money line games.

I will say this however, I look to hit 57 to 60 percent in spread games and have a track record of doing so.

Back to the headline of this entry. THE ODE TO THE PASS! I was not feeling it at all Sunday after a few tough 1 run losses........So I bit the bullet, enjoyed the day with my daughter and PASSED.

The amazing thing is I would have had a losing day today as well. With the aide of record keeping I was able to look at those records and see that I do not do well in this weekend of interleague play and knowing this was able to save money today.

I also looked back at the last 5 seasons and lo and behold saw that I do very well in the week coming up. Playing underdogs there will be bad patches but the offset of those money lines will keep the players making money instead of paying up YO.

Have a great day. Looking forward to a big week.
