Forces working against me

[pough]

the other day i had a huge play on mariners; it was a make or break bet. i capped it to the best of my ability, and at one point the m's were up 7 runs. of course they lost --- the biggest comeback for the angels in over 20 years. my luck.

and today, my comeback bet was on the dbacks. i had capped it well, again, best i could. they got up early 1-0 in the first, hit a grand slam in the 2nd and were up 5-0. my luck suddenly comes into play and they lose it 5-6.

this has been happening all season long. when these crazy comebacks happen it is always against me and never for me. im starting to wonder if other-worldly forces are preventing me from winning my baseball bets.

I had the Diamonbacks also and after Pena walked two batters and 1 runner in I just felt this was coming. Like someone walking behind me and directly kicking me in the balls. Has happened several times against me this season.

just keep at it, bad beats happen a lot in MLB, poker players have nothing on baseball bettors. but with mlb there are tons of games on the board to bounce back from bad beats



i find baseball betting unique in that its hard to key in on one game individually its the nature of the sport. I'm amazed though at the people here who can. Like if jeter goes 0 for 4 on a given night its not a big shock, but if kobe were to go 1 for 30, thats a unheard of. Sometimes you hit the ball hard but it just comes short of the fence

thats just my opinion though
