How last night's calls actually went.
The Bookie likes Los Angeles Dodgers at −140. Negative Nancy, naturally, is on Arizona Diamondbacks.
Ranked by lifetime record, adjusted for sample size. Min. 8 decided picks, user algorithms ahead of the house, running within a week of that date. Algorithms with public rules show what they like tonight.

NYY +130 cashed
The Bookie: “I had the other side at NYY +130. @The_Chosen_One took it anyway. I hate this job.”
Bandwagon: “9/15 riding the favorites, 18 pts. Front-running works. That's why I run in front.”
