    Packers -6.5 -120 isn't bad but pretty easy to find a better number on Minny ATM

    Many books allow to buy/sell the 7 at 10 cents. So, where is the special?

    I can't ever remember a successful middle. Well one, that I did by mistake. Actually thought I lost until I went through my jacket pockets the next morning and found I'd bet the same game twice in one hazy rum filled weekend.

    This was embarrassing.

    Mabye Sbr should dress you up and put you on the streets LT.

    That would be a little less pathetic.

    Just how bad was this bet? Well, SBR push charts show a probability of 5.72% for the 7. Even if we assumed most of that 5.72% belonged to the favorite in situations like this, we're still getting a price of 10/1 instead of the 20/1 that seems fair, so we're getting absolutely buried long-term and should expect to lose half the money we play on bets like this.

    I'm not sure if I really understand what's being said in this thread, but I do know I took Packers -6.5 -110 and then I took Vikes +14.5 live, and I'm sure I paid a little extra for the live bet, but I won both so I don't really care.

    Going for a middle on the 7 with both sides -120 is awful. At -110 a side, it makes sense. Paying -120 a side to go for a middle...
