Re: Ravens vs Browns

Fez thinks the Browns will be +3.5 by game time. So if you like the Ravens - take them now. If you like the Browns, then wait.

Re: New to middling - how big of an edge is needed

In the NFL, that is actually a slightly profitable middle. It would be terrible for any number other than 3, though. I am PM'ing you a link that might help.

Re: middling CFB totals

I can't answer with 100% confidence, but the above example almost has to be a great middle. I don't have a CFB database, but according to my NFL DB, the equivalent price of O45.5 -110 at O49.5 is...

Re: Mammoth SIA/Pinny scalp

Mansion exchange has got pretty much the same thing going hanging a 4.5 -104. It's a guaranteed win, but I think it is slightly more +EV than taking NE -7 +132 at Pinnacle.

Re: Mammoth SIA/Pinny scalp

I really wish I had won my lost middle at SIA rather than Mansion. Could only do 512 rather than the full 1K.

Still, very nice find.

Pinny seems to be overvaluing the 7 for some reason.

I think he gets ND, but I might be wrong. Certainly if he gets OSU/USC this is a no-brainer.

Re: I was offered this CFB bet ND/USC

the moneyline on Texas is much higher than the moneyline on ND. If you have any concerns, you could always place ML bets on Ohio State and Texas to guarantee a small amount of cash.

Re: SIA

Lines are even better than Bowman's square side IMO. As CCx said, they seem slow to adjust (as well as shading the favorite side as much as Bowman's). I frequently find middles/scalps checking SIA...
