    How should i play the Colts in Week 5?
    Right now they are ML about -190.

    i can also get -2.5 about -145
    -3 - 130
    -3.5 -105

    the total is fairly high for an NFL game at 46 points. so i think which ever team wins, will do so by at least 4 points. this is not a grind it out steelers/ravens matchup here, boys lol

    also the public will pound the colts as the titans are 0-4. so im trying to pound the colts early, expecting the line to move up to about -4 or -4.5. and then hedge with a TENN ML bet right before game time. i am to get TENN ML at about +250. this way i can guarantee a profit

    in general, my strategy is to bet favorites early, and dogs close to gametime. its all about getting the best line/number/odds, etc. for me.

    what do you guys think?

    more points than posts,



    send me some points

    I like Indy in this game, line looks like a trap, but I'll fall for it. Indy is 100% the best team. Tennessee is GARBAGE and Peyton manning is DOING WORK w/ nothing.

    If you are hedging, then go ML Indy, ML Tenn, so no risk.

    If you are a gambler, than go Indy -3.5 for smaller price and bigger hedge number

    Good Luck either way

    more posts from you and how bout some videos

      yup more posts than points buddy!

      NFL teams RARELY win by 1 or 2 points so i think getting 2.5 over the key number of 3 is best. im not really worried about IND winning by 1 or 2 here. plus it saves me about 50 cents in juice (190 to 145).

      i always lay the points if i can get the favorite for less than 3 points. but if a dog is less than 3 points, i always take ML.

      on a side note, i think a bet such as +2 -110 is the most - EV bet you can make in NFL.

          use tennessee with a 7 point teaser to give you a +10.5

            Well, you won't guarantee a profit by betting Colts -2.5 (or - anything) and Tenn ML. Just because the chances of a one or two point win seem slim, it is not impossible.

            All that aside. -3.5 -105 = -3 -131.4 = -2.5 -159.5 = -195.5 ML

            Seems -2.5 -145 is your best value

              LT, what tool did you use to calculate that?
