[QUOTE=nydoc;41877]....and the question i never know the answer to....i can get 204.5 -110 or 204 -105. which is better?[/QUOTE] they are virtually the same, I always take the better number over the juice in these situations.

[QUOTE=MikeRAS;41873]CRIS went to 7 for 35 seconds according to DB line history. When did you update the 9:35am post? I'm sure many of us subscribe to threads and when we came to look at the post it looked different than it does now.

717 Phillly 9.5 1 weight 5.5 1h worth a small bet too IMO........

719 Indy +12 2 weight All over the place in Las Vegas. Wait for it in the offshore world. AT 1`1.5 1 WEIGHT

Diff between 11.5 and 12 is worth a double unit? I am not the math guy obviously but could you explain this on such a non key #? Thx

Sure........ Actually we likely should be betting 3 times as much if we got the 12.... Assume 11.5 is a 53.2% play Assume +12 is a 55% play So 11.5 would be .8% above 52.4% breakeven, +12, 2.6% above it. And if 11.5 is only a 52.4% play, well, it should be an infinitely bigger bet +12!

Understand the logic on the bet size if the percentages are accurate. I'm not a math guy and am just wondering does the percentage really go from 53.2 to 55 on that 1/2 point from 11 1/2 to 12??

Next question: On 4-17-(sunday) when you recommended OKC UNDER 204.5 as a 2weight, and then the total went to 206. [B]Q?[/B] is how big of a weight does it become for each 0.5 point increment there? Thanks again for your time.
