Good posts in this thread.
I agree that you need to make your own line and compare that to the market. It's a great tool to find even small edges and on on those notes it's also true that margins are thin and volume betting with value is a good way to go, even in larger markets.
There are many doing it, but the environment makes it hard, you have to have outs at your outs.
I'm posting that style with NCAAF markets, exploiting the edges that can still be found with road underdogs and Totals, mostly Unders.
In the end though, one edge slightly mentioned is the one gained by being able to pass on games. That translated for both those trying to control impulse and those patiently waiting for their time to strike.
Being able to pass is an edge over the book itself, for those who subscribe to the idea that bettors are competing against the books, and an edge of the rest of the market, for those who are beating other bettors, including the one's that just can't pass on some games.
