    The word Value is way over used here!!

    Value is like the pretty whore we all decided to date in highschool!! Was a good idea at the time but after she fcked 3 of your freinds u were left there with nothing but heartache and alone. Stop with all this value bs!! Unless u r playing a casino game where Tony Willams from 5dimes is behind the payout table there is no value!! Value never paid my rent.. Value never bought me a car. Value has done nothing but made me broke cuz if the game doesn't win value is worth about as much as that whore from highschool that is walking around with 4 kids weighs 180lbs and is on welfare.. Im sick of hearing about value!!

    Value builds bankrolls. Bankroll management sustains bankrolls.

    Donk I agree 100000%

    People love to try and outsmart the books so they look for VALUE!!!

    You can't out think the line makers, we all know this and try anyways.

    Value and GOOD PLUS those two terms drive me crazy.

    Someone told me a few weeks ago he got a GOOD PLUS on the Sugar Shane vs Pac Man????

    GOOD PLUS are you fuking kidding me ill give you +1000 if you really want to donate that much.

    First of all, it should always read "perceived value". And there comes the rub, because as most of us know, perception and reality are often times two different things.

    don't give line makers that much credit. many of them are degens too. they just put up a number and most of the time the public is wrong. volume drives the business.

    these dumb threads always pop up. If I give you +200 in every mlb game this year, you're not going to take it?

    Tell me yesterday why there was value in the okc moneyline?? The fcks lost by 9 and lost anyway u bet them! Only thing with value worth anything is something u can buy and in time will be worth more money!! Other than that value is a dumb term used by degens to make them feel better!! Great value in the astros gane yesterday until that valuable bullpen blew another one!! Go buy some coins u value rooster suckers!!

    great value in whatever chalk lost yesterday too. Your point?

    These threads are always started by squares that look for any reason to bet a favorite. Enough said.

    Or they are advocating us to be psychics, lol

    Value is just getting the best line.

    Catching a line before it moves. Say you get it at +150 and it moves to +125. You got value out of the line obviously

Why is it that 9 out of 10 times someone on this board makes a value post it is a underdog?? Answer this ? Go Cubs a ton of value there lol!!

    This I agree with Chaz!! That is not what happens here!! What happens here is a team is a 225 dollar dog and just had to squeak by a 8 seed and some pos bastard is saying there is value in that game!! Or a team who has the worst record in baseball and is palying a drunk driver no less and there is value in that?? AND BOTH LOSE!! U tell me where the value was in either of these 2 games yesterday?? Value isnt a underdog and that is my point in this thread! there is a ton of value in favs also if we must use that word!! Bottom line if a team loses there is no value!!

    I wouldn't say "over" used as much as "wrongly" used. Value IS everything when it comes to betting, but a lot of guys here say a play has value only because it is +250. There are many longshots that have no value and many favorites that have tons of value.

    The bottom line is you have to handicap what percentage of times a play should win and compare it to the actual price and take it from there.

    For me it is all about value and spend many hours a day looking for it.
