    College Football Pleasers?
    Anybody think these could be VERY profitable? Moving the line when it doesn't really benefit you. Like going from 3 to 3 is my favorite. The best idea IMO is a tight spread (under 4) with a high total.

    Moving Temple from +3 to -3 and South Carolina from +3.5 to -2.5 for +600

        Ties win +550 at 5dime. Never played one of these, interesting. Anything over 6 pts seems ridiculous but like the thought 3 to 3, great heads up

          My other thought process were games in the mid 20's. Maybe taking a 21.5 point fave to 27.5. You don't really lose much, when spreads are that high, field goals aren't really in the picture in NCAAF IMO

            I like Memphis -3, falcons -3

            Side note 5dimes lists this wager as 'nfl sides giveaway 6pts, - other point giveaways vary' and I was like WTF does that mean, then plugged temple in (-3, -115 line right now) and on pleaser can't do 6, gives you 7, to -4.

              interesting, 7 kind of makes it tricky IMO.

                Interesting. I like this idea, especially around the 3 in both NFL and NCAAF. I agree that higher spreads of 17+ may be worth looking into as well. What would be the breakeven percentage on each leg that would be needed to be profitable?

                  falcons -3 is no good. if they happen to win my guess it be by a fg at best. dont think they win tho..

                        So at +600 odds on a 2-team, 6-point pleaser, the implied probability is 14.29%. So to be profitable, each leg of the pleaser would need to hit around 40% of the time correct? (.40 x .40 = 14.29%)
