River Call EV calculation
Is my math correct here?
A=Pot size
B=Bet call size
T=Percent chance of split
W=Percent chance of Win
L=Percent chance of loss
EV=((A/2*T)+(L*-B)+(A*W))-B

money lines comparison
Any good sites like covers.com around that compare the money lines between the books? Most of them seem to compare just the o/u and the spread.

Re: SF at AZ
I just think its lame that the 25 Cardinals season ticket holders are getting screwed out of a game.

You defintely call this for one bet. You'd would have to be psychic to know to fold here getting 14-1. Let me guess, he turns over AT for the 3 outer?
