It's not the same bet at all actually. The prop is that Cincinnati does not win by exactly 1 run. If they lose or win by 2,3,4,5, etc, then we win. The only way to lose this bet is if the Reds win by 1 run. So Cincinnati -1.5 would not be a good bet for this system. I hope that clears things up.
Thanks for clarifying this for me. Now i have to come up with something else...lol

I had the same problem at Pinny, just bet on Giants ML and Reds -1.5 to make the same amount of money. The odds will come out about the same...

Oh ok sorry. I didn't know that with that prop bet they could lose and you still win it.

Yup! Welcome to SBR, I hope you start your time here with a win.
Thanks! I hope so too!
I may be thinking too far ahead, but how do you feel about TNF this week and the Florida/Vandy game on Saturday?

OK OK OK
Thank you guys for the help, i think i know what i'm doing now....lol
So i have $155 in the bankroll now, so i can divide that and bet $77.50 on CIN -1.5 (+140) and the bet payout is $186 and i bet $77.50 on SF ML (+130) and the bet payout is $178.25 so either way i will be up as long as "CIN wins by 2 or SF win"....THAT IS PRETTY SMART ....I might just play around with the numbers to maximize the best ratio of money but i like the concept! Thanks AGAIN guys! BOL tonight to everyone!

Yea, that works, but your best option is to open an account at 5dimes.

Use the dutching calculator to find the stake needed on each of your bets to guarantee a fixed profit. Enter either a fixed total stake or a target profit.
Use this Dutching calculator if you want to split the bet so the net winnings is the same (assuming you win of course). Just enter the odds for each (whatever format you use) and the total bet amount.

For sure! I was rushed to choose a book with 15 mins before game time so i didn't do much research.

Thanks...i ended up going with
1.) $76.80 on CIN -1.5 (+140) payout = 184.32
2.) $80.00 on SF ML payout (+130) = 184.00
I'm happy with the bets...game time soon... BOL

#1. San Francisco Giants Do Not Win By 1 Run - $100 to win $24.10 - WIN #2. Houston Texans over New York Jets - $124.10 to win $31.03 - WIN #3. Cincinnati Reds Do Not Win by Exactly 1 Run - $155.13 to win $32.18 - WIN
The Giants win by 1 in extra innings! Sorry everyone for making you sweat haha, but not all of them are going to be really easy. This win makes this thread 15-0 since beginning, and we are on a nice start to attempt number 2! Let's keep it rolling tomorrow, and congrats to all those that tailed and won some money!

I don't know much about tennis, so I am personally staying away due to my lack of knowledge. Good luck to you though!

I don't have much of a write-up for this one because I'm in a rush this morning, but I like this bet. I think the Reds win by 3 or 4. They also have no lost by 1 at home to the Giants the whole season. Good luck guys!
Thanks for another winner!
