Welcome aboard.
Interesting strategy. I have seen it tried many times and often it comes out a huge failure. The problem lies in the fact that in order for the juice to be high enough for some decent cash, they need to be facing a stud pitcher, or the yankees. The royals and Pirates, as bad as they are, haven't seen that many lines over +200 this year. When they are that big of a dog, last night the Pirates were at +260 or something like that and almost won, they almost always lose, neglecting your chance at winning the $ you need to make your money back.
However, with the gradual betting numbers you applied in your example it could end up profitable if things go how you would like, but what happens when they go on a 10 game losing streak...you're broke. Also, I think you would be wiser to take all that cash you just mentioned and split it into units each day and bet a certain amount for each # of units without large variation. Variation in betting size, like $2-$130, can kill your bankroll in a hurry.
Anyway, I hope whatever you choose ends up well, and glad to have you around so lets make some $$$ together. |
