    Is it just me or is live betting way more profitable in MLB?

    Especially when theres a big dog and they jump out to a 2-0 or 3-0 lead in say the 3rd inning. sometimes you can get them at damn near even money or around -120. This is a huge advantage IMO. Give me a 3 run lead and a 3rd of the game already over and I barely have to pay any juice. I'll take that all day. Momentum plays a huge factor in any sport. I'd much rather you spot me a few runs and tell me its now a 6 inning game and im up 3-0 and give me -125 on a dog rather than you give me +150 before the game starts and pray the game isn't over in the first inning. Getting spotted a nice lead and seeing if the pitcher on the dog team has it or not first before you bet is a huge advantage IMO.

    The key to live betting is you need to watch the game and then it can be a very very effective tool probably better than pregame betting

    I usually will watch totals live and if I see a spot I'll take it. Or with teams like tigers with awful bullpens I can get a good shot

    Live betting can bury the average bettor.
    Juice is usually higher

    If you know what you're doing live can be taken advantage of especially totals in mlb

    and between innings you can take advantage of the prices on sides.

    probably 85 % of my action is live.

    Seems like most of the guys on sbr don't even check line ups so I doubt they take the time to watch games and live in game.

    Its time consuming if you do it right.

    Problem with live betting baseball is you have to know both teams bullpens really well. In game totals easier to maneuver.

    It helps if you know who's available and who they are going to put in...

    Yesterday was the perfect example. Milwaukee jumped ahead 2-0 in the 2nd, and they were at -110. It was pretty clear that Montgomery was having control issues, and was going to give up at least a few more.....great odds.
