Question to anyone?

Would you be willing to lose 50 bucks to possible make 200? I really wasn't going to play any games today but then I thought maybe I'll try an experiment. I feel that the SA/SAC game could fall between a SAC win of 4,5,6 point. Since I felt strongly that it could happen I thought why don't I try and buy a few points on both sides and try for a cheating middle. I would have SAC -3 and SA +7. It is almost like playing a two team parly for 50 to win 200.

SAC -3 (buy 2) 150/100
SA +7 (buy 2) 150/100

if it lands on 4,5,6 I win 200 if it doesn't I lose 50.

Just a thought.

you also make money if it lands on 3 or 7

I always thought about that. Isn't that too easy? There has to be another downside.

I guest the down side is the winning window of 5 points. I first thought to try this on the UNC/Duke game last night. I thought it had a good chance of being a Duke 2,3,4,5 win. I would have had Duke -1.5 and UNC +5.5.

my experiment is in..

SA +7.5 150/100
SAC -3.5 150/100

I need 4,5,6,7 to win both....

I just thought of some thing, I have one less number to win or tie on since the line was SAC -5.5. IF it was at SAC -5 I would have an extra number to at least tie, but I do a an extra number to win with.

IF SAC -5
SAC -3
SA +7

I have 4,5,6 to win both bets and 3 and 7 to win one and tie one.


Played SAC -5.5

SAC -3.5
SA +7.5

I have 4,5,6 and 7 to win both. But no chance of a win and a tie.


More chances to win both but no chance of tie and win.
