I told the guy Jimmy from the Turf Club, who re-introduced me to the vertical tri bet, that what looks too good to be true, usually is. He told me he's won the last 8 bets where that would be the case. Almost makes me feel like betting on tht **** again, almost. He also had the under for a few stacks (8 and a hook) on the Colorado game this week where it went over after being 1-0 or something like that after 8 innings. Kudos to those bettng sports like that with a profit.

This is probably why Len C. Cum has only been dominant in that one game you spoke of. Even then, in that game, his fastball was a lil slower than his norm. They needed to win that Friday night game you spoke of. So, I am not saying it would have been horrible to plunge on that, but just that there's a lot that the general public found out about later than they need to know(if they're gunna bet.) Seems like whoever set the line might have known(or suspected) that it wasn't just the heat n' humidity that caused this guy to get hit hard in Cincy.
