Month: June 2014
Monday
No plays today. Scuffling along for the season: 16-14 +2.94
Sunday
Apologies for posting late today. 2-0 yesterday in baseball even tough our horse lost. No plays today, though there were leans on Baltimore and Tampa. Back on schedule tomorrow.
After Ponies
Our baseball plays conveniently start just after the Belmont ends. I have Commanding Curve, just like Cole Hamels. Inconveniently, we are fading two of the better starters in the AL…
Oakland (Gray) @ Baltimore (Gausman) +117
White Sox (Sale) @ Anaheim (Shoemaker) +105
Happy Friday
Sean and I were both winners yesterday and we hope you were too. No totals today, but one play tonight: Atlanta (Teheran) @ Arizona (McCarthy) +104
Thursday
Royals lost in extras last night. We are running it back today, Cardinals (Wacha) @ Royals (Ventura) +106
Wednesday
Houston was an easy winner yesterday as was our total that I probably should have played. Rolling with the Royals tonight +114, Vargas v. Wainwright. Also another totals lean, Toronto/Detroit Under 9.
Tuesday
Only a single play today after looking at quite a few more (KC/STL Over and Padres for leaners). 1-1 on the leans yesterday.
Angels (Wilson) @ Astros (McHugh) +122
Last Day
Disappointing bubbling the WSOP Millionaire Maker (I finished 50 out of the money, Ace King losing to 98 of diamonds on 36675 board), but sports betting (thank you, Seattle Mariners and Oakland Athletics) and other degenerate ventures have been very profitable (I bet against the Red Sox just b/c Lackey was on the mound. Then I took that win and tripled it at the roulette table in 10 minutes), including a nice score at the Aria, winning a $125 tournament of over 287 players:

I also won a seat to the WPT $565 Deepstack Aria Open, which means I’ll be back here in July. Just in time for football futures (and bankroll leaks).
This is how good the trip has ended: after busting out of the Millionaire Maker on my way through the Bellagio, I find a $100 bill on the ground (which later was put in parlay that hit). Now THAT is a miracle cover!
Here are my picks today:
Mets EVEN
PHI/WSH over
Monday
Updates on our season standings coming soon. Seattle was an easy winner yesterday. Not much good tonight with only 8 games. Yankees and STL/KC Under are the best for leans.
