    Betting Derivative/Halftime lines

    2 specific examples for today, and would like to see others thoughts

    TB 3 vs. BAL 17
    Pinny has TB +3 -110/100
    ShitBook has TB +1.5 100/-120

    I bet a unit on BAL -1.5 -120, looking back I think I should've just stayed away.

    KC 21 vs. SEA 10
    Pinny has KC +0.5 -138/125
    ShitBook has KC -0.5 -110/-110

    I bet 2 units on KC -0.5, I think this is good

    Now of course, "thinking" is no good and will likely bankrupt me. The half-point calculator is out of the question for derivatives, and Pinny doesn't offer dropdown lines for me to see how good/bad/mediocore the ShitBook lines are. Help?

    Well the baltimore deal worked out well for you have you ever thought about going out to vegas and participating or trying in running wagering Its a new concept but it allows you to place bets as lines move in real time based on what happens throughout the game.

    anyone have thoughts on how to properly bet halftime lines? I'm most worried about betting when I "think" I have an advantage vs. Pinny, when it's really just a dead # that I got suckered into.

    Assuming the Pinnacle line was correct, KC -.5 -110 was a horrible bet (unless the game was tied at half).
