    Pretty big move to the Pirates.

    All the value is on Florida at this point.

    I've always been one to go against big line moves, not with them.

    Not necessarily. The problem with going with the line move is you get it at a significantly worse price.

    A good percentage for ROI depends upon how much you invested.

    Such as if you invested 10,000, and your ROI was 10%. You made 1,000.

    I hope you get the picture.

    As Houli pointed out, anything more than 20 cents usually means the joke is on the line watcher.

    no, i know what ROI means now, but what is considered good lets say you invested 10,000. what is considered a good return for that 10,000 invested?

    Don't let the RLM effect you guys. Somebody may place a large wager on Team B (and majority of bets are on Team A) but it means he will win? Of course not Sometimes, rich guys lose as well..

    My take: two shitty teams, two shitty pitchers -- one shitty bet not worth touching.

    Pirates went from a dog to a fave at the very last second @ Pinny.

    It seems like when the pirates are favored they always win because why would they ever be favored in a game.
