    Any pleasant surprises in early season MLB betting?
    I have two that jump out at me so far.

    Skybook - SBR rating A-. For a book that is traditionally anthing but opinionated, I have found them all on their own, up to 5 cents off the consensus, 3 or 4 times already. I've found a couple of decent arbs involving them just by accident. Don't know if that pattern will continue but -

    777rock - SBR rating C+. I love those 10K limits on MLB moneylines. They've "only" got 5K limits on NBA spreads but they have upped the ante for MLB.

    777rock was one of the books i was considering about a month ago myself mudcat. they offer good lines, and the price breaks were very fair i felt.

      5 Dimes and Pinny seem to be the best books for baseball. If you aren't a very
      good capper and need to arb and scalp to get ahead I imagine skybook and
      777rock are great.

      I have heard great things about 777rock.

        Finding books with lines which are off from the consensus is just as important to sharp cappers as it is to arbers and scalpers and middlers. Capping a game but not playing the best line is only doing half a job.

        But again, the question with Skybook is, will it continue?

                You call it arrogant I call it common sense. I just scalped
                today and will do more. I am just saying if that is all
                you do then likely you aren't that good at picking
                winners.

                jumper is that all you do is scalp?? If so cool, and
                if you took offense than I am sorry ,

                But let me know onw thing? Since you make 40 dimes
                scalping can you please share with us when you see a scalp opportunity??? Also alot of books

                have overnight limits so
                lets keep that in mind
                So tomorrow what are you scalping
                so I can get down as well?

                  its all good.i try everything to squeeze money out of these markets.the problem with scalping bonuses is the reliable books stop offering them and all thats left is questionable payouts.for example,last year bodog gave 20% cash every deposit,i,d pound them for 5 dimes,withdraw it monday then on tuesday send another 2 dimes and begin the process over again.thats where the multiple identities comes in but that has its share of issues too.this game is a lot harder now than it was 5 years ago.used to be able to side 3 in football no problem.everyone was on houston on the runline last night and look what happened.my hat goes off to anyone who can net good money simply picking baseball winners all season;my focus is on the totals for straight bets
