MLB Picks: Mark D’s 2015 Baseball Expert Forum Predictions Update

MLB Picks: Mark D’s 2015 Expert MLB Sports Betting Forum Update I just wanted to update you guys on our progress again in the Z-Code VIP Club expert forum for my picks. We’ve missed some low confidence progressions this month and had a couple drops, but we’ve been pretty careful to protect a season worth of impressive profits. As such, we’re still right around the 10 units mark on the year as we’ve mitigated those losses with high winning percentage days and some solid returns. For me that’s $1,000 in profit based on $100 units and $50 average A ...

MLB Picks: Kansas City Royals at Seattle Mariners

MLB Picks: Kansas City Royals at Seattle Mariners I know Felix Hernandez hasn’t exactly been dominant this year, but he has been winning games for the Seattle Mariners. The guy has a remarkable record so far, and any time he’s on the hill I think the Mariners have a great chance to win. Against a mediocre Kansas City Royals lineup that is slumping a bit and on the road, I think he’ll be in great form.

What’s more, the Kansas City Royals limp into this one in Seattle with Joe Blanton on the mound. The pitching edge would probably warrant ...

MLB Picks Contest: Cincinnati Reds vs Pittsburgh Pirates ($100 Prize)

MLB Picks Contest: Cincinnati Reds vs Pittsburgh Pirates

Johnny Cueto and the Cincinnati Reds are off to a poor start, while the Pittsburgh Pirates haven’t exactly impressed anyone either. The Bucs have the better team and they have a strong pitcher on the mound of their own, but he’s no Cueto. I think that makes this a great contest pick for us here.

The MLB Season is starting to get to that point in the season where the bad teams develop some young chemistry, pitchers hit their stride, and the easy money of the first few months is but a fond and distant memory. We cracked the 20 wins above .500 barrier with our forum, but we’ve lost a couple bets since that mark. It’s a funny time for baseball, and we’ve been exercising a discretion-intensive approach to keep our profits and pick our spots. The results are great, and we’re having a lot fun. To that end, I honestly ...

MLB Picks Contest Standings Update ($100 Prize): Kansas City Royals at New York Yankees

After another round of our MLB Picks Contest where our participant pool was essentially divided right down the middle again, we had only three winners.

As the Yanks finally snap out of a lengthy losing skid after dropping ten of 11, our leaderboard shakes up a little in the early stages of our free MLB Picks Contest with a $100 prize. We have a leader after two rounds!

Let’s take a look at our standings:

MLB Picks: San Francisco Giants at Milwaukee Brewers

I’ll lead with why this is a risky pick. We have no statistical edge and are not promoting a progression here with only a flat bet option in the middle of the series. Further, this is a road favorite and the San Francisco Giants lineup is far from elite. The Milwaukee Brewers have been pesky, and this could be tricky. So, on the road and with only one stab at this, why bother?

Well, for me there is simply too much value in the line. At -145 with one of the ...

NHL Playoffs Picks: Anaheim Ducks at Chicago Blackhawks Game Four

NHL Playoffs picks: Anaheim Ducks at Chicago Blackhawks This series is really starting to develop into something spectacular. We’ve been riding the Ducks throughout and have a series bet on them, so this game is incredibly important for us. We were with them when they won Game One despite being outplayed, when they lost Game Two in heartbreaking fashion, and we won in Game Three to take back control of the series. The Anaheim Ducks were my pick to make the finals from theWest, and I still think they’re the best team in hockey. The Chicago Blackhawks are winners ...

MLB Picks: Colorado Rockies at LA Dodgers, AB Doubler

MLB Picks: Colorado Rockies vs LA Dodgers I pride myself on taking emotion out of betting, but I’d be lying to you if I told you I wasn’t at least a little bit bothered by the rain delay inspired comeback that the Colorado Rockies pulled on the LA Dodgers last night. The game was won, our starting pitcher was cruising along, and then after a very long rain delay it all came crashing down as an elite team fell apart and ended one of the most epic losing streaks in baseball history (two short of a Colorado Rockies franchise record).

Free MLB Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Pittsburgh Pirates at Chicago Cubs

MLB Picks Contest, Round 1 ($100 Prize): Pirates at Cubs

Saturday May 16th, Cole v Lester Okay, let’s try this again. After postponing our first round of our MLB Picks Contest due to low participation and a pitching change, we’d like to start this up again with the Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago Cubs on Saturday. The Cubs have been inconsistent, but so have the Pirates. I think the Pirates have a slight pitching edge, but the Cubs have their ace going and home field. This should be a good one!

To participate, simply comment on this post on our Facebook page. ...

NHL Picks: Anaheim Ducks at Calgary Flames Game Three

NHL Playoffs Picks: Anaheim Ducks at Calgary Flames, Game Three, Contest Pick Duane is our contest leader, and he’s placed all his eggs in the Calgary Flames basket tonight. With a win, he’ll get to ten on the season and take home our $100 prize. As such, pretty much the entire rest of the contest pool is on the Anaheim Ducks. Good news, contest hopefuls – I’m on the Anaheim Ducks, too.

The Ducks have been the vastly superior team throughout this series. The goalie they let walk away has transformed the Calgary Flames into a legitimate playoff team, but ...
