You can get by with 5 or 6 out if they include Pinny, Mansion, SIA, Matchbook.
Find them pretty much every day, sometimes they last 2-3 days or longer in football.
Generally you rarely find better than +100/+110 (or equivalent) which is a 2.4% return if you have no opinion and take the money irrespective of who wins the game.
I don't get too exicited if I can't get a 5 cent difference unless a side is also involved. For example last week Carolina -1, +118 (2% fee on wins) was available at Matchbook while Tampa +1.5, -110 was widely available, so a Carolina win by 1 would give a push and a win, while you get about 1.3% return with any other result.

While moving the money around is a pain in the ass if you scalp right it can include huge returns, and risk free at that.
The trick is being selective and as someone has already alluded to, using the exchanges.
I have a website that will launch in the next month that will include a how to manual on arbitrage and scalping.

Bottomline is you need to be able to move your money around with little or no fees. I lose a lot of outs because of that. If I am getting charged 50 bux or more a whack to deposit or withdraw my money it isn't worth it. Because when you move money from one to another you are paying TWICE. Most places do have free deposits or will pay fees up to a certain amount, but it is a pain in the ass keeping them all straight so you make sure they all get taken care of.
Also it is about voulme. If you want to make enough money to actually make a diference you need to make sure you have enough money around to get them at themost you can get. (especially if they are simultaneous) But those are very few and far between. Most of the time you have to take a lead somewhere and hope it moves. That requires a little more money and a little more skill. You miss a couple moves, either going the wrong way or by not moving, that but back (at a loss on vig) will eat you alive as well.
But when you are amking pennies on the dollar you need to cut a lot of angles, that eliminates alot of places from even being considered as outs when you are scalping and buying around numbers.
