World Series Game 1

[woodee12]

Cards a -120/125 fav/Texas +105/110

Total 7.5/8...juice on the OVER. Some 8's out ther too.


Weather: mid-40's wind up to 20-25 MPH--in or out, I do not know.
Chance of rain.


Heavy action ob the over obviously after both these teams scored double digits in their last games. I am going the other way as usually whne a slugfest is predicted, a pitcher's dule happens. Both of these guys have it in them to pitch a gem, and with a lot of runs expected the UNDER is a perfect way to start the series.

You know which way I am rooting, but I think the Rangers take game 1 as well and have better value as a short dog.

But my play is on the UNDER 7.5 at even money.

These teams have not seen each others pitchers or bull pens and I think runs may be hard to come by contrary to what is expected.

The line tells it all....I think 8.5 may have drawn more balanced action but putting out a low number like this is begging for an OVER play.

Rangers 3-2.

GL and go Cards!

Hey woodee, good luck on them Cards.

I just got off the phone with a die hard Cards fan and he follows thier every move.

He says tonight Cards 4 Texas 2, and I think he is right

[Taxman]

I already got U 8.5 -120

[oldluds]

Good luck to your Cards Woodman! I am still mourning over the Brewers
Hate to be going against you and Tax on the over, but I'm going to ride the over all series. Texas 7-3 in the opener.

[woodee12]

Where is the 8.5 at?

Still would like to see those pics from the clubhouse too!

[Taxman]

8.5 -120 is at SIA (buried under other bets)

Drop me an email and I'll gladly send you some pics (I sent them to Carpet a couple of days ago).

[Taxman]

The wind is supposed to be from the NW, so if my memory is correct, it should be a cross breeze (left field foul pole to right field foul pole)

[oldluds]

I don't see that Tax, but my eyes aren't the greatest
I got over 7.5 -125, and ML texas +115 at SIA

[Monroe Eaford]

I went with Texas tonight. Much better team (IMO) getting plus money with their ace on the mound. STL only 7-10 in home games started by Carp this year.

texas + 115

[Carpet]

Carp is sharp in big games, and playing on some days rest, those boys from Texas wont like the cold weather as Carpenter snaps them batters off at the knees.

[garister]

Wilson's got anera over 8 in the playoffs while carp has been nasty.

Riding Cards -123 in game 1

weather.com says the wind is blowing in for you total takers.

[woodee12]

Under still is my best play on this game. under 7.5 now at -115.

Winner is a toss up but still more value on Texas i think as a dog now at +110.

[dragon1952]

Tex/OV 7.5 for me

[oldluds]

Very nice call on that under Woodee! Carpet, that friend of yours almost hit that one on the head. I was on the losing side on both counts. Sticking to my guns and just playing the over again tonite.

[woodee12]

Good game....I had the score right,3-2, just in the worng teams favor! But glad it turned out that way.

I think the over 8 is a good look tonight as Garcia has struggled and has a short leash with Larussa. He starts to get hit and then gets over emotional and compunds it. Similar weather tonight too.

I hate to keep betting against my team, but I think texas may be theonly way to look tonight again, but the over may be a better call.

That game could have went either way last night and the Cards just got the clutch hits and plays. Pujouls saved 2 runs himself on D.
