So in the last couple of weeks, I have been betting on MLB games not going into overtime.  I have managed to go from an initial deposit of 1 btc to the 2.04844 btc that is currently in my account.  Not too shabby!  I wanted to create this thread to track my progress and to see if there was any interest in following me as I go for 3 btc?  I will be posting my bets daily, and hopefully we can make it to 3 btc in under 2 weeks.

The only site I have found that still offers this bet is Jetwin.  They have been around for a long time and have a nice looking site, so I would recommend playing there.

So, to get my tally going...

Starting Bankroll - 2.04844 btc
Hopeful Ending Bankroll - 3 btc

Bets for 5/5/16
St. Louis Cardinals vs Philadelphia Phillies will not go into overtime - bet 450 mbtc at 1.08 odds.

Thanks, and good luck to me!

@1.08 odd is really like nothing man. May be you like to only bet on safe odds but even 1.50 odd are quite safe. Whatever good luck with your win in this bet. I will keep following you and your bankroll.

If your strategy involves betting on such odds I wish you the best of luck but it won't be profitable on the long-run.

Cheers and best of luck, really hope it does work out for you.

Yea I know the odds aren't good, but by picking games that have opposing pitchers with really high ERA's, I have done pretty well.  Made about 1.5 btc last year (but started pretty late in the year) and have made a little over 1 btc so far this year.  I think I have 3 losses so far this year, but I would have to double check that.

wow I will be keeping up with the thread MLB predictions are hard to make maybe we can profit together lol :D on this journey :P

Its very low odds to make more profit.. but you can still make profit even a low amount.. and you are far in risk because your just choosing low odds first.. but reaching your aim bank roll is to far and it needs more time to reach the bankrol..
But anyway good luck to your goal..

First bet was a win, which makes me 1-0 and +0.036 units (1 unit is 1 btc)

4 games tonight I am currently on, will get on one or both of the late games if the 6 o'clock games get over before they start.

All games to not go into overtime.
Cleveland Indians vs Detroit Tigers - 350 mbtc
Miami Marlins vs Arizona Diamondbacks - 450 mbtc
Houston Astros vs Seattle Mariners - 350 mbtc
Chicago Cubs vs Washington Nationals - 500 mbtc

Good luck!

haha i like this option of no overtime it seems it is good for MLB statistically... extra innings are low.

I agree maybe we can profit together lol :D on this journey

I am adding 550 mbtc on giants vs rockies at 1.08 odds

Low odds and i hope you can make more profit after few days. slowly increase your profit.. why dont you try toto parlay to get more odds?
So that you can make more profit for your bets..

yes mate if this very low odds can make it to win, much better if you can parlay at least two teams to win and it will increase the winnings  i will follow you and check your strategy with this, I really don't know how mlb works but with this thread im seeing some small profits so thank you sir for sharing this. good luck to your journey.

lots of people are making stupid comments on this thread.
If you can bet at 1.08 when the actual chance of it happening are less than 1 in 12.4, then you will make money in the long run.

Don't add in poor value bets just so that it looks a bit sexier. Think of it more like an investment, 8% in a few hours is massive!  Just make sure you know the stats for how many games go into OT, otherwise if you are just guessing, you will lose in the long run.

I don't like to parley the games, the odds don't go up very much for the risk involved.  I prefer to spread the risk over 2 to 4 games a night.

That being said, all games yesterday were a winner, which brings me to...
5-0 +0.2005 units (1 unit being 1 btc)

Games for today are as follows...

Cubs vs Nationals 550 mbtc at 1.08

More games to come later...

do you think anyone can attempt this at lower bankrolls and still be secure or is a large BR recommended ?

You can absolutely do it with smaller bankrolls.  The goal is to double whatever your starting balance is, just use whatever proportion you want to my bets.

thanks mate was worried I might bust easier with lower BR but am probably going to give it a go as this looks like good value ! Good luck tho mate :D

Yes those odds doesn't matter if your bank roll is few satoshi's .Debitme has bankroll of 2.04 BTC and very less return expectations IE 3BTC.Odds are sufficient to achieve the goals.Playing it safe is way better as at times MLB predictions can go way too off.

Good luck to you OP.

More bets for the evening games. ..

Yankees vs red sox - 450 at 1.08 odds
Marlins vs Phillies - 400 at 1.09 odds
White Sox vs Twins - 400 at 1.07 odds
Indians vs royals - 550 at 1.08 odds

Edit:  They voided my orioles bet, so I replaced it with White Sox vs Twins and added odds.

Added one more bet for the night...

Angels vs rays - 450 mbtc at 1.08 odds

All bets tonight were a winner, which brings my record to 11-0 and +0.4245 units (1 unit being 1 btc)

More bets to come tomorrow!

Parlay?

I did it carefully with positive results... 8)

Damn that's a hell of a good win ratio. I think I might have to start following your tips. Why the hell wasn't I in the first place :D

The overtime/extra innings bet carries a lower risk... in my research to verify this strategy i followed one team and out of 7 games only 1 went to overtime  8)

OP has a very clever strategy. Low returns but one must have patience

Some bets for the afternoon games, will probably add more for the night games once these bets are over...

Giants vs Rockies - 450 mbtc at 1.08
Yankees vs Red Sox - 400 mbtc at 1.08
Tigers vs Rangers - 350 mbtc at 1.07
Cubs vs Nationals - 400 mbtc at 1.09

Good Luck

Interesting method.
I'll follow you.

Adding Indians vs royals for 550 mbtc at 1.07 odds.

Well we had our first loss, but was up enough to cover it, so we are still good.  Adding 2 more bets for the evening games and will probably have 1 more for the late game tonight...

Braves vs diamondbacks for 550 mbtc at 1.08
Orioles vs athletics for 550 mbtc at 1.07

Looks like thee Giants & Rockies game is going into extra innings since it was 0-0 up until the 8th as I was watching it.
This one might ruin your win record of 11-0  :-X

Yea, almost had a win out of it, but these things happen.  Either way, still up pretty good.  So now we have...
17-1 and +0.188 units (1 unit being 1 btc).  Unfortunately had our first loss today, still up pretty good, so not to worry.  More bets to come tomorrow.

be careful!

all it takes is one bad night when a few games go xtra
innings and whammo all those pennies you won risking dollars
is poof.

My buddy did this in nfl better like $100 to make 6 on like patriots
at home and he got to like $50 winning like 10 in a row then blammo!
2 losses in a row and all the money gone.

good luck just be careful :)

ouch :( was actually going to parlay all the games of the day as odds would be over 1.5 and worth it but lucky I escaped :(

Bets for 5/8/16 afternoon games...

Indians vs Royals 500 mbtc at 1.08
Blue Jays vs Dodgers 400 mbtc at 1.07
Tigers vs Rangers 450 mbtc at 1.07
Braves vs Diamondbacks 450 mbtc at 1.07

Good Luck!

Thank you for sharing this again mate, good luck to I will also try to use this tips for my small amount of btc.

Ouch, another loss.  :(

yup the diamondbacks this time :( id put ths down to luck the chances of going to overtime are so low but they been hitting frequently these past few days :(

No more bets?
