Major League Baseball (mlb)

Ok Pirate... I take it that the official name that the US pro baseball falls under is 'Major League Baseball'?

Yep, Major League Baseball or MLB. Season starts April 1.

You should see the bookcp above... which allows you to create the games. I will write a bookie how-to guide today, outlining the relevant specifics.

You can play around with it creating test events if you choose, as hands on is usually better experience... as I can delete them.

P the bookie. That's awesome! :tup:

I'll play around with it this weekend, or another evening this week. The only part I'm wondering about is in Baseball they play three games against their opponent they play that week. So, for example, Rockies play Brewers, they will play three games. Along with all the other teams. I will have to set up each game then, individually right? Along with all the other teams?

 

[anthony]

Is there an overall score for the three games, or is it scored and calculated per game?

Because if each team plays three games against the other in the same week, and if that is saying it's the best out of three who wins, then you could simply use the collective to enter events on who wins overall.

Each game is won or lost on it's own. I think the idea is good to just do best two out of three. Then the betting would close prior to the first game. I'm even more excited for baseball season to start now! Oddly, I actually dreamt about entering the games on the forum, lol

 

[anthony]

That sounds like a pretty decent way of doing it then, if that is how it's played. Best out of three, single listing.

What sort of odds could you use for baseball? Obviously the given, win either side. Would a spread still work in the event of best out of three, i.e. above or below total points made?

Maybe having this game in place will help me get into Baseball too. :)

Entered some MBA for tomorrow, and a few have some interesting odds. Review mba.com for who's who on the winners ladder, and then take a gamble.
