can someone explain this to me and what numbers do i insert

[scottie2005]

what do i put in the boxes?

Convert From: Spread
League: CBK
Spread: 10.5
Fave and Dog Odds: +100

Gives dog odds of +926.7. So if you can find ML odds higher than this is "theoretically" +EV

Don't know how accurate that calculator is over 10 however. Numbers above that seem off.

[jeffdane]

why would you put +100 for odds? where you getting +100 for both sides?

[scottie2005]

That's the juice a sportsbook would use. Normally I'm guessing a book would use -110 in order to get a spread. However, we would use +100 so no spread is calculated and it just gives us the approximate odds of the event occurring.

[jeffdane]

so with the spread being +11.5 how does the other guy get 7 to 1? mine says +1722

Surprised Rider even covered.

At least you got that.

+1

Like I said before the game, the line was sharp. But I definitely thought Fairfield would cover; they played more of a defensive/controlled game.

You've been here for over 2 years and 4000 posts... There is a lot more pertinent information available. Personally, I like situational analysis.

so you are saying, hunch?

so you are saying, hunch?

My analysis for this game would run pages deep and I didn't even make a play... I'm not going to write it all out for you. Everyone has their own style, I simply stated before the game that I was leaning the other way and that the line was sharp. No need to explain that.
