The juice is high on each side, but it seems like they hit a lot in the playoffs and world series. (If you were to try it tomorrow, you would have to lay 140 and 170 respectively). I wonder if there are sharp people who finds spots that hit and profit year in and year out. I would assume it would have to come down to luck as the juice is so high. However, if you can pick those low total spots where they hit, you make a nice score!!!

It was profitable this year on a couple of teams specifically the White Sox and the Nationals. More profitable was playing the runline -1.5 and the alternate runline -1.5 on the other teams. Basically you were betting it was not a 1 run game and took advantage of the books who have the lines set to keep middles like you describe from being profitable.

I don't think it has much expectation unless you really pick spots and get great lines on both bets at Mansion.

Sounds like the express train to sleeping in a cardboard box in an alley.

I was tempted to try this with Mets games a few times over the last few seasons they seem to have had a lot of 1-run games over the last few years.

I dedided it wasn't worthwhile.
