I'll be back, again, today / afternoon with FRIDAY selections. I'm going to try and post earlier, as some have said I wait until close to game time to post.

Good Luck to you all = hang in there.

FRIDAY recap of plays:

YTD W-L 404-327-9
YTD +$11,813.00

I liked several last night = biggest thing that upset me was Francona putting in E. Gagne (GAG ME) to give up a beautiful rally by the BoSox. Just TERRIBLE coaching in Game one AND Game two. Why not put Gagne in the FIRST game? it wasn't close? Then save the two STUDS, Papelbon and Hideki in case the 2nd game was tight????????? Too much Skoal . . .brain-fry.

Here is Friday's results:

5* TOR -175 = WIN +500
5* SDP -220 = LOSS -1100
4* COL +102 = LOSS -400
4* NYY -182 = WIN +400
4* METS -152 = WIN +400
3* COL +1.5 -220 = LOSS -660
3* BOS -200 = LOSS -600 (Beckett got screwed by bad coaching on this one)
3* ARZ -146 = WIN +300 (Webb is pitching lights OUT!)
2* NYY -1.5 -105 = WIN +200
2* CINN +1.5 -190 = WIN +200

3* 2-TEAM PARLAY = LOSS -300
TOR -175 W
SDP -220 L

3* 3-TEAM PARLAY = WIN +$911.02

Man. (2) things blemished the evening, BoSox bullpen tragedy and Peavy, once again, with NO run support. But, I've said it before, that is baseball. The GOOD NEWS? An almost 'break-even' night with quite a few selections.

Back again on SAT morning with SAT selections.

As always, hang in there !!!!:Guitarman

Do you have a breakdown of what your 5 star, 4 star, 3 star selections are percentage wise.

 

[UncleSteve]

Do you have a breakdown of what your 5 star, 4 star, 3 star selections are percentage wise.

According the 'rules' of the Tracker Forum, each unit or * represents $100.

So, 5* play, say for a team that is even, would be:

5* (team) to win +500 or lose -500

Say, a 3* was (team) +103, if it won?

WIN + 309
LOSS -300

Parlays figured the same way, each unit or * represents $100 in action.

Hope this helps. I play these, but sometimes I'll take off a ZERO on my personal bets, you know, If I play a 5* team that is -200? I'll play a $100 play instead of a $1000 play, but as for this Tracker system?

Each unit is valued at $100. I use the * symbol, ex. 4* of play for fav or dog. Then, when I recap, I calculate the W-L and $W-L in terms of $100 per unit. I read something in the rules about units = $100 or 1 unit of play.

Good Luck Six!

I got too revved up and my mistake was TOO many parlays yesterday - that was the difference (almost to the penny) from breaking even for the day. Oh well, if MINN & STL woulda-shoulda come in, would have been a big day.
That's baseball.

Back early today with SUN selections. Gonna narrow down a bit today, unless I see some big fatties dipped in beer = any cures for hangovers ???? If so, please post them in the reg baseball forum, thanks.

Keep on chuggin' (oh, no-scratch that, ugh) pluggin' away,
