    Exploitable Locals Lines

    So I just realized that when I make bets through my locals website, the payout is either rounded up or down. For example if I bet $27 on a -110 line it pays $25 (though the actual payout is $24.55) Conversely a $50 bet at -110 pays out $45 (though the actual payout is $45.45) Essentialy my payouts and bets are all without cents, always rounded to the dollar.

    I definitely make sure to bet the amount that gives me the rounded up payout, but I am wondering if there is anyway to exploit this outside of just making sure I get the extra rounded up payout. Thanks

    bet $0.55 to win $0.50 (-110) which will round up to $1.00 payout instead. Keep entering this bet over and over.

    your local has a website? Is that normal? You'd think he'd be wary of having such a website. I'd be interested to take a look at it.
