This sport is becoming impossible to play live - literally cannot seem to get a feel for it - especially with bullpens being complete shit.

Try live betting the under in a game only to have a pen give up 6 runs or a team up 3 only to watch the lead evaporate.

Yesterday’s Seattle/St Louis game good example of what this season has been like for me. I’m officially stopping until I get a better feel. Soccer totals only these days for me. Love watching the sport - but my capping has went to hell.

You could have summed it up with those 6 words my friend.

It's definitely gotten a lot harder since early 2020-2021. I've been betting more sides in ⚾ than totals live and Pregame. I did real shitty yesterday on sides but previously I was doing pretty good. I mean look at the totals yesterday in baseball OVERS ruled. I'm being selective on totals lately because of it .On sides you'll have a four run lead live only to watch the scoreless team take the lead. There's no pitching in baseball like back in the day. When you knew both pitchers would hang in the game late before going to the bullpen.

a few years ago sports book really had no clue about bullpen usage and were regularly undervaluing how much three outs were worth (ie bet the home team at the end of the half inning). Haven't checked it out much this year, but good reminder to start looking again.

just got Orioles -150 in a tie game after 3.5.

Except for a couple overs possibly today now live after yesterday's big over party. It looks like an under day early. Hard to get on these low Totals live right now man. Exactly what you're talking about my brother 👊@djefferis

I'm not sure I agree with this thread.

Markets are constatnly out of whack to real value.

Exchanges make it cheaper, by a lot, and allow you to buy and sell.

Not to mention the lack of limiting.

OP says this...

This sport is becoming impossible to play live - literally cannot seem to get a feel for it - especially with bullpens being complete shit.

Can't tell you how many things are wrong with this. From wanting to bet on feel to being emotionally and rationally disrupted by bullpen performance.

In other words, jefferie, get it together, man.

lol

The way I've been hitting them live lately is Sometimes when I like an under like todays original total in Toronto game was 8 1/2 then when Toronto scored two and I can get a higher number like the 9 1/2 today I'll double pop it. Cause if I love 8 1/2 two runs won't scare me on hitting 9 1/2 again.
