Why are Braves-220 to win the series?

[lakerboy]

+115 today.

I'm guessing roughly the same or more Tomorrow if it goes 7.

Cmon, Laker, u know this. Small Fav who has to win TWICE. -130 x2...means -220 is about right. +/- a little.

You see this often in NHL series. If the Game 1 Home Fav is a SMALL fav...they may well be a Series Dog. Because they'd figure to be +180 in the road games.

Corollary question: *Any extra value on HOU home in two big games? If you think they ride out the Home value, +200 is the parlay. MIGHT get better rollover on the two games, tho.

Is it a typo? They should be +100.

Got +100 from my local this morning. Maxed out at +500.

Chucky got this. Braves only need to win once, Astros twice.

So if we assume Astros -130 both nights:

-130 = implied 56.52%

so .5652^2 = .3194

Round to 32% and that makes Braves 68% = -213

Yes, LT. That's what I meant. It's like a Hou/Hou parlay vs Braves having two chances to win.

You sometimes see lines like this in a series. Think about NBA team who is down 3-2 but with TWO home games upcoming. Seems like they just have to hold serve, but they have two chances to lose.

Noone makes money betting on Dusty Baker

There was value with the Astros when they were down 5-0 at +1100 live.
