I took the over 9.5 in the Astros/Mets game real early this morning at +102 and now I can get the under as well at +102. Should I bet the under?
This is at Matchbook.

If the first bet was big, scalp it for a guaranteed profit.

LOL. There is no profit there. You'd barely make anything after commissions. Keep the bet.

Wish you knew this earlier this morning....no? I would stay with your first play unless the scalp is too much to pass up or your view of the outcome has changed and you think it's effected your edge.
GL with whatever you decide.

1% commission = 1% profit

That would only be a $15 scalp.

Yeah. In other words, he'd make $10 on a $1000 bet or $50 on $5000. Good reason to scalp out of it, huh?

1% is 1%. It's not worth it either way. I'd rather keep my great number and let my $5k ride on the pick I found value with...

It is if you're trying to meet rollovers to obtain bonuses.
