    I have two books with at least 7 teams where the total wins are different by two games. Two game difference in a 82 game season........Is it worth it to middle???

    not worth locking up your money for half the year unless you got alot of extra money on the side.

      I could do it. I would think you have to at least hit one and none of them would be pushes since they're all two game differences with hooks at both ends of the middle.

        I think you should determine which side is +EV and bet that one only. It shouldn't be hard to figure out which book is giving the weak line.

          If you can price your expected return on the middle, compare it to the opportunity cost of foregoing another investment (and its rate of return) you have access to.
