PrizePicks needs to fix the wording on this prop immediately.
“1st Inning Strikes Thrown” is incredibly misleading if balls PUT IN PLAY are also being counted toward the total.
A pitch can be hit for a single, an RBI, an out, even a HOME RUN and it still adds to “Strikes Thrown”?
How is a customer supposed to know that from the name of the prop?
I took three 10.5 unders tonight. Two finished at exactly 10. Luis Castillo finished at 14 and killed the slip.
I have no issue losing a bet when I understand what I’m betting.
I have an issue when the wording of a brand-new market does not accurately explain how the stat is being graded.
Call it “Strike Events,” “Non-Ball Pitches,” or clearly define it in the app. Even Potential Strikes..
If it was counted the way EVERY normal person alive imagines it is, they all stay under with 7 strikes called each. I built the lineup thinking thats how it was graded.
But “1st Inning Strikes Thrown” does NOT properly explain this market. @PrizePicks
What a ride so far. I've been live streaming NBA in-game plays for over 90% of the season so far. 145/158 days. Sitting in a chair on camera for 4-8 hours connecting with the sharpest chat in the world.
It's been incredibly rewarding & challenging so far, analyzing & narrating multiple games at once isn't easy, but my unique skillset suits me well for this task. No collabs yet, doing it all by myself for now.
I'm a sports fanatic with a passion for financial markets & data analytics (before the latter became an overused phrase on GT).
Some people are only around for the plays, but many come for the authentic sense of community & unique format. I'm grateful for the chance to meet so many amazing people.
I'm dedicated to helping you win WHILE enjoying the games. I'm not afraid to lose in front of hundreds of live viewers, I'm resilient. Different.
I'm writing this because I just took a break on consecutive days for the first time all season, but I'm back today. Really needed to reset and assess what's happened while also planning what's next. I was exhausted! Sometimes you have to take a step back to see who's really with you.
We've witnessed SO MANY interesting & funny moments together during these games this season. I appreciate all of the people that reached out over the last 48 hours, everything is fine! Let's keep this going all year.
Shoutout to the real ones that know. Thank you.
