Remember, there are any number of bets for one game. If a guy takes a side, you can still take the -1.5, -2.5, or +1.5, +2.5, as well as all the different totals options. All kinds of possibilities.

I dont think BetJam does -2.5/+2.5 lines. I have never seen them anyways.

I would like to keep the exotic stuff out. No Reverse RLs etc..

ML, RL, O/U. That is what 98% of wagers are, lets stick to them.

Five dimes has them.

Ok. Harvey chip in if you have an opinion. I don't know if BetJam has a menu of totals the way 5dimes and Pinnacle do.

The +1.5 is an effective bet.... Especially in the last couple weeks. I think you guys should let yourselves have these type bets available... The rest +2.5 etc, is chit.....

Right. RLs are fine. MLs are fine. O/Us are fine.

+2.5/-2.5, Reverse RLs & the exotic stuff is silly stuff for the most part.

I think 3 Seconds is saying he wants only the favorite RL to be included, not the AR (alt-RL) where you bet on the DOG -1.5. So you can take Fav -1.5 or Dog +1.5 but not Fav +1.5 or Dog -1.5. And 2.5s of any persuasion are out as well.

I think that is what 3 is saying.

Correct.

Harvey can try & grab Opening Lines and the such if that is what his schedule allows.

No problem on my end.

Ok.

Of course, for afternoon games, you must post before the hour in which the games start, let's say. That is, if the game starts at 1:15, have your bet in by the start of the hour, no later than 1:00.

Correct.

For example today w/ Clev vs Toronto you could bet:

Toronto -230, Clev +200, Toronto -1.5 -110, Cleve +1.5 -110, O 7 -120 or U 7 +100.

6 options per game.

Exactly. All games must before start time, but no later than 7pm EST.

Excellent, got it. This will go unless Harvey has something to say.

The one remaining question is Harvey's position on specifying pitchers.

Let us know, Harvey.

I think listed pitchers are the way to go. As long as my play or plays are posted before 7PM est they are official. I will usually post my plays for the day around 7:30 AM EST.

NO!

No emailing.

Just post your picks here, in public. First come, first served. Six options per game. If he takes one before you do, then you can't have it. If you pick one before he does, he can't have it. Very simple.

Both of you want specified pitchers only, so that is resolved. I will add that to the rules.
