    Am I missing something here?
    Pavlik vs Taylor fight on Feb 16

    Odds at 5Dimes

    Taylor is +155


    Taylor wins inside distance +378
    Taylor wins by 12 rnd decision +421


    Why would some bet the regular line. Seems better to split your money between the two other props if you like Taylor and you would win more money no matter how he won. Am I missing something here? Have you seen something like this?

    I see it a fair amount Immortality, especially with tennis. I can't tell you how many times I've seen a player say +200 for the match, and he or she will be +525 to win in 2 sets and +550 to win in 3 sets. Either way you make more money. Nice to see someone looking to get the best valuable possible. GL...

      Thanks for the response. I kept looking at it for awhile thinking there was a catch. I don't play much tennis or boxing so I had never noticed it before.

        Yes, you'll be missing your money when Pavlik knocks him out again.

          Well I never said I was going to bet Taylor. I was just looking at the lines and noticed what I thought was weird. But thanks for your pick.
