Derek Thursday Investment

Cashed in on Monday and still riding a weekly profit after a low risk loss on Tuesday.  For those who don't know and new followers or have followed and don't know how I move with my money.  I do not flat bet, period.  I like to adjust my units as a stronger move will be there that fits all my criteria, so I will increase my bet size accordingly.  Example is right below as my Best Bet is +1.54 units this month yet my win % is a crappy 38.8%.  I have won more units on my high unit wagers with this and this is how I attack the books by adjusting my units per play.  I use a unit scale from a 1 unit wager to my max move, a 10 unit wager (very rare).  I normally move between 1-4 unit wagers per game risking 2-5% of my bankroll.  I do, but rarely move above a 4% play.  Hope this helps you and you get an understanding of how I move my money.   2016 Total Overall Units +99.49u 2015 Total Overall Units 481-433 (52.6%) +197.09 Units   DBB (Drock Best Bet) in BOLD 2016 – 87-73-3 (54.4%) +44.33 units June – 7-11 (38.8%) +1.54 units May – 17-11 (60.7%) +16.58 units April – 16-11-2 (59.2%) +13.17 units March – 16-13 (55.1%) +11.51 units February – 17-11 (60.7%) +10.2 units January – 14-16-1 (46.8%) -12.16 units 2015 DBB– (138-121-4) overall (53.2%) +71.69 units 2014 DBB– (43-35-4) overall (54.5%) +38.23 units 10* GOY (all time) – 5-0-1 (100%) +50 units   CFL: Kickoff 10:05pm EDT GM 903 Argos +4 -110 (SB) risking $440 to win $400 GM 903 Argos ml +155 (SB) risking $200 to [...]

2016 Total Overall Units +100.49u 2015 Total Overall Units 481-433 (52.6%) +197.09 Units   DBB (Drock Best Bet) in BOLD 2016 – 87-72-3 (54.7%) +45.33 units June – 7-10 (41.1%) +2.54 units May – 17-11 (60.7%) +16.58 units April – 16-11-2 (59.2%) +13.17 units March – 16-13 (55.1%) +11.51 units February – 17-11 (60.7%) +10.2 units January – 14-16-1 (46.8%) -12.16 units 2015 DBB– (138-121-4) overall (53.2%) +71.69 units 2014 DBB– (43-35-4) overall (54.5%) +38.23 units 10* GOY (all time) – 5-0-1 (100%) +50 units   MLB: First Pitch 7:05pm EDT GM 910 Yankees ml +113 (SB) risking $100 to win $113 With the betting public all over Hamels tonight (90%+), that is not a side I want to be on and invest my money with this publicly backed Texas team tonight.  Hamels might look like "easy money" to the public eye with this low line, but I would tread lightly.  When a line looks to good to be true it usually is, hence putting my money with the Yankees tonight.

2016 Total Overall Units +95.61u 2015 Total Overall Units 481-433 (52.6%) +197.09 Units   DBB (Drock Best Bet) in BOLD 2016 – 86-72-3 (54.4%) +42.3 units June – 6-10 (37.5%) -0.49 units May – 17-11 (60.7%) +16.58 units April – 16-11-2 (59.2%) +13.17 units March – 16-13 (55.1%) +11.51 units February – 17-11 (60.7%) +10.2 units January – 14-16-1 (46.8%) -12.16 units 2015 DBB– (138-121-4) overall (53.2%) +71.69 units 2014 DBB– (43-35-4) overall (54.5%) +38.23 units 10* GOY (all time) – 5-0-1 (100%) +50 units   Tonight is an unusual night for me in baseball as I have moved on a few games, but I don't put my money in spots where I don't expect a return.  Each move tonight is a situational move combined with line moves according to playing against the public betting numbers.   MLB: First Pitch 7:10pm EDT GM 962 Rays ml -107 (SB) risking $107 to win $100 Buy low situational spot to play on the Rays GM 966 Braves ml +131 (SB) risking $100 to win $131 Sell high situational spot to fade the Indians First Pitch 8:40pm EDT GM 970 Rockies ml +101 (SB) risking $300 to win $303 Great spot to fade the fly ball pitcher in Estrada in Coors Field while his stock is high.  He has the highest fly ball rate in the majors among qualified starters at 49.8% fly balls (75% fly balls last start), so those fly balls that are hit to the warning track at Coors will not be outs today. GM 970 Rockies -1.5 +185 Alternate Run line (SB) risking $100 to win $185
