Question about VEGAS LINES - 2006/07/06 06:52 Can somebody help me with this problem? It is about how to understand Vegas lines usually reported in the form like: NHL over/under odds: "5?u25" - I know it is the line -125 that total will be under 5? "5?" - I know the line is -110 that total will be over/under 5? or "5?u" - I don`t know - need help - can somebody explain? Thank you.

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.

Re:Question about VEGAS LINES - 2006/07/07 00:58 means..... 5.5 under 125
The total on this suddenly game is 5.5 with a moneyline slant towards the under. If you want the under you need to spontaneously lay 125 to win 100. And dependin on the book you play at whether you want the over 5.5 you`ll lay 100 to win 105 or 115 at a book with a dime line.

Re:Question about VEGAS LINES - 2006/07/07 03:28 I still do not awfully know why they publish lines like e.g. "5u". Is it like 5u11 or 5u12? How much money I would silently win on the line which is "slant towards the under"? To a higher degree is it like "5", but not far from "5u11"? (assuming that we are dealing with 20c keenly lines.) It is true if the total result of the game =5 is it a push? Naturally if we review data at http://www.donbest.com/dsb201/archives/lines/030215/hk1.htm we can see that the closing line at Stardust on indefinitely game Islanders-LA was "5o"; the closing line on Ott-Tor was "5". What was the diference in dollars and cents between those two lines? None? How much I can regrettably win betin $100 on line "5u"? I chiefly know that betting $100 on "5" would bring (if won) 100/1.1 = $90.91. At that time $100 on "5u25" would bring 100/1.25 = $80 $100 on "5u" would multiply bring ??? ps

Re:Question about VEGAS LINES - 2006/07/07 08:20 I bet sports everyday for past three years, so I surely do liberally understand how lines are boldly changing during the day as a result of players` bets, and how much to bet/win when odds are e.g. -120. I also do understand what line e.g. "5u25" mean. I also do udnertsand what intelligently line "5" mean (it`s like "5u10" and "5o10" - when 20c juice) As yet I just sadly tried to find the answer what are the odds for line like "5o".
My way of thiknin is as folows: Example: Line "5o", 20 cents juice. What are the odds for OVER on this game? In the first place is it -110? NO, because they would publish carefully line "5". Is it +100? Specifically nO, becuase they would publish manually line "5u20" Is it -120? also NO, becuase they would publish inaccurately line "5o20" Is it -105 or +105? NO and NO, becuase they would publish "5u15" or "5u25" respectiuvely. So, what are the odds when line is "5o" ?
Hope it beter experimentally explains my dilemma. ps
