    I feel like such a chump...
    Some of my plays today
    Mil/Pit OV7.5 -105, and
    Mil/Pit UND7.5 -105

    and

    Hou+133, and
    WAS -141 -

    call them reverse scalps!

    Now, can you guess why I did these? No bonuses involved...

                you bet them at even money?

                did they end up being no-plays for you, or you found a reason to hedge out and just pay the juice rather then risking a full unit?

                            what I meant by that was for example.... 100 on the over 7.5 and 100 on the under.....

                            not 100 and 200

                                Justin7 definitely has something interesting to share with us , but as far as what inthehole said I would tend to agree with this assumption .......................

                                    5 units on Houston +133, 4 units on Seattle -141. With price leveraging, I effectively have 1 unit on Houston at +101, instead of the market price of +145.

                                              See Durito's post. Ganchrow has a pretty good in-depth post on this subject but I can't find it in my bookmarks.
