    Anybody use a runline calculator...i so have you been successful on a consistent basi

    Halfway through the season and I have not seen any threads or post regarding taking that big money line favorite and knocking it down by using a run line calculator. Just curious if anyone has done this on a consistent basis? Is it a sucker bet??

    It depends. If you straight up use the calculator, you are assuming the total is right. But why would the total be right automatically, when a side is wrong.

    It is good to look into the run lines. Chiefly, it allows you lineshop 2 bets instead of 1. If I am line shopping 6 book, I get 12 options instead of 6. Find a lot of value that way.

    I tend to take smaller favorites on the run line. I don't tend to bet large favorites.

    I've seen some people be successful with that. (I don't know about the long run)

    If its a big fav, its still -140 on the run line.

    Those sports bettin online calcs are handy.
