Not even close...

Over 8.5 plus $1.09 by a lot!!!

It's very close actually. Even-numbered totals are worth anywhere between 15 and 20 cents.

Shrink can always say +109 now because if he he has the over and it goes O8.5 then he had the +109 and if it hits 8 then of course he had O8-125, or better yet, bought an extra half run to O7.5.

Pretty interesting that Shrink will pay 10 cents for a half point in hoops but won't pay 16 cents for a half run on an 8 total.

shrink, it is getting to the point where you need to speak with advisors before you post

 

[postaldoug]

It's 34 cents difference , not 16 cents. Over 8.5 +109, for me.

 

[EveryGamblersDream]

8.5 +109 by far!

 

[D2bets]

Oh shit, my bad, yeah 34 cents is far too much. I thought it said -109, not +109. Back to banging my head against the wall...

don't worry here shrink, I've got your back. I will back you up when people take shots at you.


Hey everybody, stop picking on my buddy shrink. So what if he made the whole thing up. Big deal if he is making up the story about buying the half and having it at -6.5. Big deal if he never bought that half point. Big deal if he waited till the game was over and the game landing on 7 before he mentions he had it at -6.5. Big deal if Shrinky boy made the whole thing up including the copy and paste of it being -6.5 and just deleted the line and replaced it with a -6.5..

Now boys, pls leave my buddy shrinky alone now. There you go shrinky boy, I just stood up for you.. I told you I got your back..

When betting baseball numbers, bettors almost always pay too much for the extra 1/2 run.

You typically have to spend an extra 20 cents more for the best over 8 number vs. the best 8.5 number.

And the actual adjustment is more like 17 cents.
