    Better way to middle

    If we can get a capper to predict which way the lines will move during the course of the day, then we could get a good shot at winning a middle. For example if GSW opens at 208 and the capper says it should move ( with a probability of 75%) to 212 then we could bet the over at 208 and the under at 212. We would have a 4 point middle. If we could catch 25% of our games then we show a nice profit. usernametaken

    The chance of ONE person knowing line movement and being completely accurate is slim... pair that with the fact you would bleed yourself dry from the juice of each side. Not worth it IMO.

    I dont see you winning 25% of bets if you only have 4 points to play with.

    Sounds pretty straightforward. How hard can it be?

    A very sharp 'capper may be able to predict the direction of movement, but to predict the amount of movement would be next to impossible.

    Middling would be better in football when the line gets first posted
