Re:Question about VEGAS LINES - 2006/07/06 07:14
your mail. It is regrettable that odd "5?u" tells us that under 5? is favored, but we don`t know by how much. Specially that the same sources public full information as well. I agree that we can go to the source and check what exact odds are, however we cannot do it with historic data. You wrote about "5?u25": "The number AFTER the 5? says u25 -- which means the "favored" side of the bet is the UNDER, and to take it, you would have to lay -125 (on the under) If you wanted the OVER on that bet you would be GETTING +115 if you win (at most sportsbooks; only +105 at some)" About your last sentence: I would expect that most sportsbooks would offer +105 (counterpart bet to "5?u25"). Do you know some which are giving better than average odds? Anybody? I know: Canbet.com (-107) FairDeal.com (-105) only on Fridays BetGameDay.com (-105) only on Wednesdays This information should be spread everywhere, so we, players can favor those Sportsbooks, and at the same time put pressure on other ones to use more favorable odds. Many players don`t understand how significant better odds are, to be successful in gaming.
