Be wary of books dealing a juiced front line

[jjgold]

You’re way better off finding books that are -110 on the front lines all the time

At times you might get a half point for the juice but it’s still not worth it the majority of the time that same line is -110 other places vs 115 or greater

I was looking at some books. -4-115 or -118 then I will go look at other books -4-105/-110

There’s a reason books do this it’s called analytics and they know they have a massive mathematical edge on player betting pattern

Always remember when you bet a juiced line you have to hit 60% or better to break even

I’m still teaching you clowns

Seems like us books have got better

I remember the terrible juice in the early days

It’s a little better certain ones but not much Vegas does a great job though none of that BS



They pretend they are trying to balance books But no it’s strictly a strategic math play so they player cannot win

"When you bet a juiced line you have to hit 60% or better to break even"

Yikes. Suspend this guy indefinitely.

Juiced lines can work great for bettors if you are betting on the other side of the juiced line.

Knowing the breakeven % is important, but you can't just throw out a number like that. -150 is breakeven at 60%. You hit 60% at -118, you will kill it. Breakeven at -118 is 54.128%.

Don't look at the juice in isolation. It has a relationship to the spread/total. -120 is better than -110 if it means you are laying -6.5 instead of -7.5 on an NBA game.

"picking winners" is overrated. Everybody is gonna be close to 50/50 long-term against a closing line. It's about finding small edges in the numbers and getting it consistently. You want to turn -110 into +110. Become the book. Strive for a 5% return and then bet volume.

No one ever won betting -110 long term
