Back, what does the "W" mean next to your totals choice in the Brewers/Rockies game? (Game has not yet been played.)

If you look back on the previous page of this thread, I posted the Brewers game on 8/12. So the W just means I won that bet. I carry my picks forward in each post to make it easier for me to total them up.

Hi Back,

I see what you mean . . . so it appears that your picks for the current day are represented by those entries after the "+" sign . . . right?

That is true, unless I make picks multiple times in one day.. only my newest ones are after the "+".

It never fucking ends... Three times I need one strike.

Chris Dickerson Ball, Strike (swinging), C Dickerson flied out to center

Alcides Escobar Strike (looking), Strike (looking), A Escobar grounded out to shortstop

George Kottaras Ball, Strike (looking), Strike (swinging), G Kottaras singled to right, C Counsell hit for Z Braddock

Craig Counsell Ball, Ball, Ball, Strike (looking), Strike (foul), Ball, C Counsell walked, G Kottaras to second

Rickie Weeks Strike (looking), Strike (swinging), Ball, R Weeks hit by pitch, G Kottaras to third, C Counsell to second

Corey Hart Strike (swinging), Ball, Ball, C Hart safe at first on error by second baseman C Barmes, G Kottaras and C Counsell scored, R Weeks to third

A two out, two strike single... then you walk a guy with 1 homerun to get to Weeks... a right hander... get a 1-2 count and hit him... then boot the final out. A fucking 3-ring circus of clusterfucks. In the one game I play.

Looks like you experienced "Murphy's Law".

I, too, only put one of my picks for today on STC and while the Rays won, I lost on the runline.

However, when I bet runlines on MB, more often than not, I blend RLs with MLs such that if I win the ML but lose the RL I still make something.

Better luck in the future.
