Ive decided the past two weeks to not BS with this gambling thing. I need to know information on line shopping does it make a difference and how would i find the best lines? Also people say (juice) i understand that this is the extra 10 or how ever many dollars u have to put up to win 100 example -110 or -155. Now my question is why does this matter because u get back your 110 plus your 100 so your not paying the juice? Thnx in advance

#3Dude if you cannot figure out yourself why -105 > -110, don´t start.

#4Betting 101.
Bookies would price a coin toss at -110 each of two. Basic maths tells you it should be evens either way +100. That's their margin. The bigger their margin, the lower your profits.
Anyone wanting to take gambling seriously should spend a minimum of five years working up to a point that they can have a serious go at it. It's a constant learning curve. You don't learn a trade or vocation overnight, wagering is no different.Comment -

#5Thanks i understand now it matters if you lose cuz you would have been risking more to win less then if you found something cheaper got it. Also you would make more money if you found a line with less juice thanxComment -

#7you stumbled upon the cognitive fallacy that enables 99% of gamblers to lose.... they never consider losing as an option.... and they think they only pay juice if they lose.... so they figure they will never pay juice. But the truth is, winners pay the juice.Comment -

#9if you're a winning player, can accurately estimate your edge, and know how much of your bankroll to wager, its not risky at all. Hold time is 3 hours vs. annual return as other investments are measured. On avg. i make avg .7% of my total roll per day. Put that in a financial calculatorComment
