Sportbooks absolutely crush on games like Toronto today. Everyone who took B-more probably took the +200 and everyone on Toronto probably took -1.5... books win both ways.
I have a friend who has told me to play B-More +1.5 and Toronto ML in this situation. At the worst, you split, but you have a 20-25% chance at doubling your money.
Books have been KILLING people on games this week with people playing home teams on the RL. I rarely if ever play RL on teams at home. I usually end up playing the heavy juice in a parlay.
But, I believe and I am preaching (and showing that by my + $$$$ and record) that betting these heavy juicer bets; that the way to go with em is in THE FIRST FIVE INNINGS. It seems that 80% of the time (or at least feels this way to me and I know many others have stated) that they have picked the right team (through the starters' outing) only to lose thanks to the bullpen or some late error or errors in innings 6+.....
I have not taken the time to figure out or really seriously played ATL RL (i.e. +1.5 runs) to see what kind of outcome that has been lately, but maybe if you dont have a way to bet 1st 5 inn. you might want to look at this option.
The NYM lost 4 games or something straight 2-1. All those would cover with ATL RL on the road.
If anyone has the time or just knows, I would love to find out which teams in the last 2 or 3 series seem to keep losing, but by only ONE RUN.
