2 of my 3 days have posted profit and that is good enough for me.  today my numbers matched the bookies quite closely in most of the games except for a couple so they will be the plays.

San Fran +158   1 unit
St Louis +156   1 unit
Philli -102   1.02 units

VALUEVALUEVALUE-monday picks

had a good saturday but no pick on sunday because i had no time to cap.  today is a wierd slate of games with so many huge dogs and lots of marquee pitching matchups.  if you haven't noticed, i look for the biggest value picks of the day based on my numbers vs. matchbook odds.  sometimes it is underdogs and sometimes it is undervalued favs.  long term this will be $ in the bank. 

todays picks are:

Atlanta +113   1 unit
Seattle +167   1 unit


and yes, i am nervous about both in my gut, but numbers never lie, right?

started stWRONG

i lost 2.08 units yesterday but i am not worried.  oldtimers say very weird results lately so normalcy should return with $ to be made.  till, then i will play less games, especially since i have an ultimate tournament this weekend and won't be able to handicap all the games.  this is what i got so far...

colorado -107   1.07 units
la dodgers +125   1 unit

and so it begins...

with much research and ignoring of my real job i feel confident in my handicapping system.  special thanks to lanastasis for all his help.  although if i suck, don't blame him.  it looks like my system doesn't value the big favs as much as his but since i have no track record i will leave it at there.  input from all is welcome. 

on to the picks...

Atlanta -1.22    1.22 units

more to come later (what a tease)...
