Default Re: Another scalp, 11 cents

[ QUOTE ]
are you able to make both bets at the same site at the same time? Like with pinnacle, would I be able to bet both the over and under for $X each? Or do you guys typically find your scalps at two different sites? Thanks

[/ QUOTE ]
the built-in juice at each site for the same game makes self-scalping almost impossible (unless perhaps you take a lead on the moneyline and hold it). however, side/middling the spread can definitely be done if you are willing to have some degree of risk on each side of the margin.

the reason pinnacle is the best way to find completely risk-free arbs is because they are precise enough to shade prices between point spreads. so when you see them hanging lines that are above +105 or +110 (I got a +121 and a +123 in CBB today alone), they are basically inviting anyone to come in big at another sportsbook's expense. most of the "square" books only move the number, but keep the juice.
