    Pinny dropdown box CBB/NBA
    Does the pinnny dropdown menu to buy points represent an accurate price of what an extra point should be? For CBB all season it's been between 8-12 cents depending on the number. The other day when I wanted to play St-Bonnie the line was +3.5 +100 the line to go to 4 was +4 -114???

    Just looking for some clarification on the system they are using and if they are adding some kind of juice? During the season I always kind of debated grabbing "Team A +8 -101 or Team A +8.5 -112 in the drop down menu". Even thought basket-ball has some "key-ish" numbers I always figure buying points in general was a bad idea but with the pinny reduced juice you can sometimes get the number you want under -112? Is it a -EV trap?

    1. Basketball has NO key numbers, this has been proven
    2. Pinny adds juice to their half points
    3. Your welcome

      if that is the case then sharper players should never use the dropdown menu since its -EV even for numbers like 2 or 3 (I guess you can put 7 in for the NBA).

        Generally speaking you should not play their drop menus, since they charge more juice than their regular lines.

        If you have an edge it will only be decreased when you buy or sell points unless you have data that suggests there are key numbers in NBA/CBB (which I do not believe exist, but I am no basketball expert). For football, it may be a different story.
