Re: Another scalp, 11 cents
[ QUOTE ]
When you say you got +121 and +123, are you saying that you took those with the intention of scalping another site later? Or were those just bets you liked?

you lead the betting on the square side first, which is usually the same point spread but at -105 or -110. whether you close it immediately at pinnacle or wait a while is up to you. for pro sports, you can often sit on a bad line and watch it continue to go down until you scoop it at the bottom. however with college hoops, the value of points in the middle is difficult to precisely value between teams, and you can't buy or sell back half points like you can with NBA and NFL in case the juice is too high when they move the number. so with some rare exceptions, better to go with the pure scalp (pinnacle often holds their number for a few extra minutes for this exact purpose which is why those inflated prices pop up every so often).
