try Horizon, Pinnacle, Canbet

I use these 3 different books with dime lines, who jack up the prices on faves.

I bet EVERY dog blindly for 100 bucks at the best plus price. Over the course of your life, you will be up major money.

However, this is a reason why many books are switching to 15-cent and 20-cent lines.

I have already been called a "wise-guy" by several books for shopping for the best dog comeback price. They get pissed, because, in essence, I become the book. These books hate me because they think I have cracked the code.

I would bet a lot more on each game, but you know what can happen. One long stretch when the favs hit would kill my bankoll.

Also, I don't expect dime-lines to be around too long. Many books in Vegas have already changed to 20-cents.

And don't be fooled by books that claim to have a 10-cent line and break that at -150.

Good books for the dog players don't break to a 15-cent straddle unil -200. And good books that have a fave at -340 should have the dog at +310. Shop fo value and play every dog on the board at the highest price. All databases show this to be true, but people don't do this strategy because they are afraid to place money on a team that is "expected to lose."

This takes major discipline. But Iwish I had enough money to put a grand on every game. However, I am young and my bankroll does not permit it right now. Plus, like I said, if I "stepped out", I know what might happen...........the faves can go on a tear. So I am happy with what I am doing now. Very low risk

I should also say that I think another excellent baseball strategy is playing a few solid faves in parlay. You can turn a pair of -200 faves into a single dog by parlaying them.
Maybe Fletcher and/or Raymond can comment on this because I think they do this and are VERY successful with it.
The best thing about moneyline parlays are that they pay off in true-odds.

Stone fly.....

10 cent line would be -140 +130


the same line at a 20 cent shop would be -145 +125


you basically get 5 extra $ on each 100 won. Or on a fave pay $5 less.

Hope that helps.:toast:

Try: Canbet and BET365USA. These are both top quality shops for baseball.
BETKING:)

Looking at bet365usa, they seem to be using 20ct lines.

ie.
-105/-115
-120/+100
-110/-110

Infini..
10-cent lines usually don't start until the regular season. Just about every sportsbook only uses 20-cent staddles in exhibition ball. Hope this helps.

All the more reason why to never bet an exhibition baseball game. Its bad enough we have little idea who will play and to compound it by playing into a 20 cent line...makes no sense.
