Default Re: Need help quick!!! (St.L-Astros)

Its the same either way:

If the cards are -150 they are 3:2 favs, winning 60% of the time.

Parlay that 60%: (0.6)*(0.6) = 0.36 chance to win both

So Astros are 64% to win the series = 0.64

So they are a 0.64:0.36 favorite or 1.78 to 1 (+178)

Thats assuming the line is again -150, which it probably will be around but I see it being worse.


I will just take my +175 now plus my extra $50 to bet.


Edit: Oops, didnt see your post tech, good job.
