question onbest way to use 1300 in Bonus Plays

[WVU]

-105 on both sides if you can find em

take the whole balance and bet on one team. Bet the other side of this game with another book. Lose at one and win at the other. You may get lucky and catch good lines and have a small middle and win one side and push the other or maybe even wiin both sides.

that is what i would do guarentee yourself free money

Seems like the best way IMO would be bet $1300 on one MLB side on DSI and find another book that has the closest line on the opposite side (or scalp if you're lucky) that way if you find a line that's 5 cents or closer you'd be getting 95% or more back...right?

Or am I thinking about this wrong?

won't work, check math. You need big payoff on freeplay say like a +500 dog, and take back -550 on fav. -105 both ways doesn't work.

Not good unless the dog is in the range of +500 which doesn't happen in bases.

If you had +100 on both sides of a baseball game, and bet the FP to win 1300, and bet 650 on the other side, you convert 1300 of FP into 650 cash ( 50%).

I wasn't thinking Bonus Play was matchplay. I assumed a 1300 winning bet would return 2600

Doug,
I think we come up with different scenerios. I have:

det-dall-den
det-mem-den
det-dall-lac
det-mem-lac
mil-dall-den
mil-mem-den
mil-dal-lac
mil-mem-lac

Just wanted to make sure i had them right! Thanks again for your help

Right, Sorry I screwed it up, did it too fast.

Freeplay and Matchplay mean the same thing... you only get the winnings from the bet, not the stake itself, so you need to get the winnings from a longshot to maximize the return. I've never seen one where you get the stake also.
