    For Those of You with CW Accouts, Check Out Giants FF
    Game starts in 20 minutes, yet even at this late hour, they have:

    Giants +160 (5 innings)

    Comparatively, 5 Dimes has:

    Giamts +131/Cubs -146

    Have fun!

    Will the Giants score a run in 5 innings?

      IT DOESN'T MATTER. It is a free 2.2% scalp.

        Yup what LT is referring to is arbitrage, that is take both sides and collect the middle percentage. It is guaranteed money, no matter what the outcome you win.

          And even if you don't scalp and like the Cubs -146 FF, you could cut the vig. Instead of betting 500 on Cubs -146, i.e., you could bet 500 on Giants +160 and 1000 on Cubs -146.

              CW only allows you to bet $100, so it's not enough scalp. What's 2.2% of $100? 9 quarters? pocket change if you ask me.

                  Actually great point by pavy, I forgot about the 100 max. But some guys have had limits increased and could bet 400 I believe.

                    Well I'd venture to say that all the market makers are scalping, but beyond that, I have no idea.

                      If your limit is $400 a pop, you can lay up to $2k (or your credit line) to win $400 on a single game.

                        Arbitrage only works if the book will pay you.

                        any book that consistently gives you scalps won't be around next year.

                            Well at least LT is sorta admitting he plays there and not trying to use this "my friend" stuff anymore...

                            Right and likely that's what LT's limits are...

                              typically i'd agree. though there are scalpable mlb lines between SIA and pinnacle/matchbook everyday.


                              Anyone dumb enough to play at CW should just take the off market line with their $100

                                As I've stated several times, CW has paid out without fail five of the last six weeks, including over $1,200 this week.

                                  If you took that FF straight you got 6 more outs before you have to hope for a push...

                                  I just stuck with the S.F. RL...

                                    You better get your checkbook ready this week. The last couple days were brutal. Unless you use the Hugh method of betting the opposite of your posts.

                                      its probally not smart alerting a whole board of people about a great line at a book where its risk vs reward to begin with? if this was a pinnacle line it would be a different story. but if you want to continue getting paid i wouldnt want a 100 posters beating this books brains in

                                      JMHO

                                      unless it makes you feel special alerting everyone?

                                            They were right on this one... CWoo even moved the RL down to -120 so I took it... and with a mother f*cker on third and no outs I couldn't get the run I needed....

                                                  I went with the under 6 instead. Giants have scored 0 runs in FF their last 7-8 games it seems.
