TOTAL BULLCRAP!

There is nothing wrong with 20 cent lines!! You can still see value in 20 cent line scalpers..YOU JUST NEED TO LOOK HARDER..


I would take

any 20 cent line 20% bonus book vs anything else!!

BUT FANS OF 10 CENT LINES..I MADE A DEAL WITH A DEVIL

Giving my 20-cent's worth.

Journeyman:

This sure sounds like a rhetorical question, but I'll answer it anyway. A 20-cent shop is likely to get a lot of square action. Let's say the dime stores have a game at -130/+120. The 20-cent store will list it at either -135/+115 or -140/+120. Now, if they get more chalk money, let's say they raise it to -150/+130. Meanwhile the 10-cent shop might be getting balanced action at -130/+120 and not budge. If you liked the underdog, where would you bet? Would you still bet into the 10-cent line because a dime line is "better" or out of loyalty to that book? Of course not, in this instance there's no value.

This happens in a game or two just about every day during baseball season. So monitoring the books with 20-cent lines isn't so foolish.

Besides, in the real world, bettors don't just bet baseball. People might like other things a 20-cent baseball book offers in other sports.

The key is not taking the worst of it in any given situation.

Does not matter whether 5 cent line or 30 cent line. Laying or taking the best price is all that counts.

To think you are always getting the best price by playing at a dime shop is simply way naive. Shop around and find the best price, just like you do when you purchase anything else.

A book thats starts witha 20 cent line is not my baseball out...too many 10 cent shops that play fair...not everyone can shop for the best line....

If you cannot take a few minutes to shop for the best line I suggest you stick to Powerball for your gambling.

VVV, what i meant was not everyone can move money around from book to book to get the best line...some people are stuck at just one book or have limitations, thats all.. in fact alot of people use one book at a time...

If you play a lot of totals and runlines, books like OLY, GA, LP etc. can be very useful.

For MLs you'll probably rarely play any there but if you already have 10+ ten cent outs, an eleventh won't help you very much. There are books that I have used and do use that offer dime lines and still NEVER have a bettable line that beats another by even a friggin' cent.

I swear I remember a post like this about a month and a half ago as well with the same exact responses.

Feels like Deja Vu all over again.

Anyone using only one book has far greater problems than the spread on a baseball line. To use your logic why not just make all your plays at Pinnacle?

Having multiple outs is essential for anyone with even a hope of making money (or keeping some) betting sports. You surely must know this?

Jman- Listen to these guys. It doesn't matter if a book has a 5 cent line. If a book has a 20 cent line but has a better number for the side that you are playing that's all that counts.

I agree, a 20 cent line in baseball is a screw job. As for value you will never find any in a 20 cent line.

Raiders , thats a big if...I don`t have time to wait for a valuable line at a 20 cent shop , thats all...my point is why would anyone go to a 20 cent shop for bases, there is no need.
