Better to take OSP at +400, and buy back on Mousasi at -275? Or just take Mousasi at post?
If you know the line is wider than expected, and can anticipate the line move - is it better to take the free money, or wait and swing for the home run?
One is math and one is gambling. Not saying either is wrong - to each his own.
But please don't condescend to people on here just when they have a difference of opinion. And also realize that these oddsmakers are putting lines out on 15-20 fights a weekend. Not an easy job on either side of the counter these days.
Very easy to pick spots and guess line moves. Much harder to make money off these spots consistently, week after week.
Better to respect other players, and respect the books.
Happy Holidays.
