    Its pretty simple, just like Panekkk said, you bet enough on the Moneyline to cover your runline bet (in case your team just wins by 1).

    Example using 5dimes lines:
    HOU +145 +1.5 -142
    FLA -155 -1.5 +132

    Say you like Florida and you want to win $100.

    You bet $66.81 to win $43.10 on the ML.
    And bet $43.10 to win $56.90 on the RL.

    By doing this, you've made your own -1 line of FLA -1 -110. (Your risking a total of $109.91 to win $100). If they win by only 1 its a push.

    This is a real good way to lessen your risk when you especially like Favorites with the big chalk, as it reduces it by 45 cents on average.

    Doing this is more favorable with favorites than doing it with the dog +1.5, but some still do it. With those 5dimes lines of -1.5 and -2.5 has me wanting to check into the math of this now

    Good luck today and always recheck those wagers beofre you hit the enter button. I fked up the otherday and it cost me not cashing a $810.00 ticket.

    How pissed would I be if I had over 9.5 right now? Get 9 runs through 5 and nothing more... Line shopping is so critical!

    It's easier to figure out with decimal odds. I'm sure there's an online calculator somewhere major or a spreadsheet that'll do the calc for you in two seconds. Just google it.

    Brutal major ... Sorry dude. Also, ****ING managers. Let's leave Parra in for another 3 runs. I swear, if the Brewers blow a NINE NOTHING lead... I'll quit.

    That's where live betting comes in handy tho major. If you were worried you coulda laid heavy on the under 9.5 which woulda had huge + odds and you coulda generated even more profit probably.

    You coulda laid down half of your winnings had the game gone over, on the under 9.5, if you had the option, and made some nice profit!

    Pinnacle has it but on very few games and you really gotta be on the ball to ever hit it. It's only come in handy for me once but it can make you good money in the long-term. Not sure what other books have it but it's def something to keep in mind!

    For odds conversion its actually at the top of the page:
    Sports Picks>
    Betting Tools>
    Odds Converter

    For the -1 "Calculator":
    Its in excel: Just plug in the ML and RL and what you want to risk or win, and it gives you the numbers. Its in Post #15. This is Ganch's file.

    I cant back either team honestly... Both pitchers suck, and both teams are over achieving in my opinion... If I HAD to take a side it would be the Marlins but I cant back either...

    Good luck!

    I am on the Yanks over with you... Panek hates it but I love it for some reason... I like the Houston over 10 but I got it at 10.5 now which makes it a no play for me... If it drops back down to 10 I will parlay it with Houston and the Yanks over just for shits and giggles!
