The PLAY: Total Under 7.5 (-120) Spencer Arrighetti (RHP), Nathan Eovaldi (RHP) Must Start
Astros vs Rangers MLB Free Pick
The Angle(s): The Rangers have scored three runs or fewer in four of their last five games, and against a red-hot Spencer Arrighetti (6–1, 1.32 ERA) they should find it tough to put runs on the board.
With Nathan Eovaldi (5–5, 3.65 ERA) on the mound, Texas still has a chance to pick up a win, like when he blanked Houston over seven innings on May 17, but runs should come at a premium for both sides.
The Bet: UNDER (3%).
Bet to: Under 7½ -135.
Consultant Bio
Magic Mike Moneymaker's experience as a professional poker player has proven to be an immeasurable asset in sports handicapping. He's a numbers guy, with a keen eye for spotting trends and stats that just don't jive with the odds offered by the bookmakers. All Mike's plays come with write ups backing up his selection, giving you a glimpse into his process of breaking down games.
Just as in cash game poker, the goal is not to win that giant pot once in a while, but to build your bankroll slowly and steadily by identifying +EV situations to exploit.
----Handicapping Methodology----
As a former online poker pro, Mike knows the value of creating systems and winning formulas through statistical analysis and math to use as a baseline, but much like poker, sports are played by human beings with emotions and feelings.
Identifying letdown spots, bounce-back spots and situational betting in general plays a big part in Mike's success in picking winners, but he's also not a stranger to locking in a bet based on stats and trends alone.
