Hi there!

I got a betting coupon from one of my forums' partners.. Now I felt like betting on baseball games but the sad thing is: I don't know anything about baseball :D

Here is what I betted, the winners are marked bold.


Baltimore O. V Minnesota Twins
Boston R.Sox V Oakland Athl.
Florida Marlins V Houston Astros
NY Yankees V Seattle Mariner
Toronto B.Jays V Kansas City Roy
Cincinnati Reds V San Diego Pad.
Tampa Bay D.R. V Chicago W.Sox
Milwaukee Brew. V Philad.Phillies
Texas Rangers V Detroit Tigers
St.Louis Card. V LA Dodgers
Colorado Rock. V Atlanta Braves
Arizona Diam. V Washington Nat.
LA Angels V Cleveland Ind.
San Fran.Giants V Pittsburgh Pir.


Please tell me what my chances are.. If Iam lucky I can get up to 13.000 EUR (the pool was 5 EUR ;))

And.. Could someone tell when the games are over? (Please post the times including the timezone so that I can transform it to GMT+2 :))

Well yeah.. I have been there for 20 minutes now but I don't feel like reading all those stats ;)

So how are my chances? Good or bad? I just want to know.. I don't need the 13000 EUR, 2000 EUR would be enough :p

Always bet against the Reds and you'll make some cash ;)

As far as I can see I didn't bet against the Reds :( :D

Damned I should have talked to some experts before I placed my bets ;)

Well if I really hit the jackpot and get the 13000 EUR I would give away an Apple Mac Mini (and I know chances are little :D)


There is no specific need for me to know this but I can't sleep.. I hope I get an email when I wake up this morning with the standings :)

In that case I think the set up you're finally picking is the right choice! ;)

I contacted the support.. That just can't be true :(
