Hypothetically if you bet $100 everyday for 1 year at -105 odds and win 55% of your bets you'd have $2,694 in net profit. Without using a calculator, what would your net profit be with -110 odds instead?

If you like an over on a player prop but think the price is getting too steep before kickoff, wait until the book switches over to their inplay model (0-10 mins before kickoff) You often see O1.5 -170 drop to O1.5 -155

Assuming he lost $1M over 18 months with the bookie holding 20%, that means the bookie was letting him bet $10K daily on an $85K salary Why would a bookie let him build up 12x his annual salary in debt? The more details that come out, the less believable the story gets IMO

Seems like a timely post… Books move off action not social posts, however if you post an edge with a large audience ppl will copycat it. The more ppl win with an edge, the easier it is for a book to spot it and larger priority to close the gap.
