With the baseball season in full swing and DFS and season long players settling in and getting an idea of what to expect this year, from left field a new form of game play arises! WinView Games is an app geared towards in-game scenario’s and broken down from there in terms of baseball specifically, into innings and then into at-bats.

When we actually begin diving into playing WinView, we need to have an idea on what we’re doing because it’s definitely something most of us haven’t tried before. When we open up the application, it’s easy to navigate to which sport we’re looking for. Once we find the baseball icon, we sift through any active games because those are the only contests WinView opens. Once in, there are tournament lobby’s just like there are on any DFS site. Once open, we begin making predictions. The predictions themselves only start when the inning starts, so we need to check back once we enter to make sure we make the prop bets given to us.

There are boatloads of different prop bets we are given in any given inning. A few examples are both team’s lead off hitters strike out in four pitches or less, either team commits an error or a double play during an inning or finally, team X reaches scoring position in whichever inning prop bets you’re playing. Those are just a few of a seemingly million different scenarios.

Once you enter a room, the inning begins and the prop bets roll out, you’re given a 5,000 point allotment. You can throw down point bets of 250, 500, or 750. On each bet you’ll see a multiplier that could snag you that amount times the point bet you made. So for example, if you bet 250 on a 3x bet that Joey Votto hits a home run and he does, you’ll make 500 points back. 250 x 3 = 750 - 250 for the original bet you made! But I can’t leave out the ONE-SHOT option! You have one ONE-SHOT that counts as 1,000 points. The kicker is that you don’t use ANY of your 5,000 point total because it is free.  If we get a question pertaining to Aaron Judge and it has to do with a strikeout, walk, or homer, its probably smart to use the handy dandy ONE-SHOT option seeing how near a lock one of those three outcomes are.

At the end of the inning and all prop bets have been completed, everyone's point totals are tallied up and the winners are given their money right then and there. Quick, easy, and an awesome concept to attack sports gambling. I, myself, look forward to working with WinView for the duration of the MLB season and beyond!
