avssports · Oct 9, 2003

Assuming both players put 4 dimes into action per weekend, which action does a book prefer:
A) Player makes 4 plays per weekend(a dime a play) or

B) Player makes about 15-25 plays a weekend, about $150-$300 a play....

i'll say B...

without a doubt......the answer is B

clerks may not like it.............but that kind of action will get the money evertime..........

Just speaking with the local bookie, I ask him this question figuring he says B as well, but he says

"Chit Pete, makes no difference to me. I will get the money either way"

I just don't see how people make so many damn plays and can feel confident about it. I make 2-3 plays per weekend. 6 plays on a real busy weekend like last weekend. The more you bet on the better chance they have of taking your money IMO. Especially if you lose your first couple and start chasing like a dumbass. If I were to bet a sport like FOotball I would still only make a couple of plays. Whatever I considered my strongest plays (no more than 3) would be what I would bet on.
