I know Pinny does off hand on most games, who else?

e.g.-----BUCKS -2.5 .......would like to reverse buy to -4 plus a price.

Thanks

PS- Hopefully one that allows this in football too.

You can get the same result a different way at 5dimes with their alternate lines.

Only SELL points when I am scalping a side.

I play action points though and love them as a betting option.

Anyone care to explain how action points work?

(I could of course look it up but I am lazy tonight :drink: )

WSEX action point rules.........



An Action Point wager allows a player to place a bet on how many points his/her selected team will beat the spread by up to a set cap. You can choose your own cap between 1 and 15 points on Pro-Football games. You choose how much you wish to bet per action point. When you place an action point wager, no money is deducted from your account, but your maximum loss potential is restricted from your account until the game is final.

You win the dollar amount wagered for each point the team covers by up to the selected cap. You lose 1.1 x (dollar amount wagered) for each point your team does not cover by up to the selected cap.

Here is a typical payoff chart:

Team A is -7.
You choose a cap of 10 points.
Wager amount is 10 dollars per point.
The amount restricted is 110 dollars. <TABLE cellSpacing=8><TBODY><TR align=right><TH align=middle>Team A Wins By</TH><TD>1</TD><TD>2</TD><TD>3</TD><TD>4</TD><TD>5</TD><TD>6</TD></TR><TR><TH align=middle>You Win/Lose</TH><TD>-66</TD><TD>-55</TD><TD>-44</TD><TD>-33</TD><TD>-22</TD><TD>-11</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><TABLE cellSpacing=8><TBODY><TR align=right><TH align=middle>Team A Wins By</TH><TD>7</TD><TD>8</TD><TD>9</TD><TD>10</TD><TD>11</TD><TD>12</TD></TR><TR><TH align=middle>You Win/Lose</TH><TD>0</TD><TD>+10</TD><TD>+20</TD><TD>+30</TD><TD>+40</TD><TD>+50</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>As you can see above, Team A winning by 17, you still only win $100 because of your cap, and below, Team A losing by 3, you still only lose $110.

watch when doing the action point thing at gameday and probably any book under the umbrella. Where as if you have Team "A" -7 they will make the action points harder to beat either way by setting their action point line at -9 or +5 depending on which way you are placing your action,

Fish, why would you sell when you could use theat half point or point toward a middle or side? No book is going to give you enough extra juice to make the sell worthwhile.

slash- abbreviated version

you make a bet on say new york +5 you choose a dollar amount per point... if new york wins by 2 that would be 7 action points 7 times whatever amount per point you bet.

if they lose by 10 it would be 5 action points for the book.. 5 times whatever you bet per point.

LOL!

I hear EXACTLY what your saying!

A HUGE percentage of the time do go for the middle, but sometimes just like to wrap up a profit after going in a 0-49 slump on middles.............like to CASH once in awhile just to keep my sanity i guess..........LOL!

Sometimes I middle 75% of the wager and scalp 25% of it for shits and giggles.

I used to think there was a method to my madness, but not sure anymore.

After years in this business, my mind is getting warped............old age is not helping matters.
