Couldn't you take leads at Mansion and make a killing scalping bases later in day?

Iceman · Apr 26, 2006

Just signed up the other day and I have found some OUTRAGEOUS lines there. For example I have Chicago White Sox -134 today and Philadelphia -144. Now I know you could have got them other places also but when I seen these they were a good 6 cents edge even on Pinny numbers and these lines had been going up since they opened.

I guess you would really have to stay on top of the sport.

The best thing IMO is that in the middle of the day when it is slow at all other books is when you can catch some good prices there (esp favorites) on numbers that are starting to move.

Maybe today was rare but damn I had some big movers that I just kept one sided and didn't scalp.

Absolutely.

Same with Matchbook, and to a lesser degree Pinnacle and 5Dimes.

If you know the market mechanics sure, effectively you're gambling that your read of the market is correct, and if you're right more than you're wrong you'll come out ahead

Personally I think I do that better than I do pick straight winners, but it's the same kind of thing.

me too I like going for the one side wager but even if your wrong and pay attention you can't get hurt to bad.

for example you cn get Baltimore +101 tomorrow right now (-110 at Pinnacle). Not a great example but stuff like this can be huge

This is GREAT at Matchbook.

One can have way more in action than they actually have.........10x, 20x, and even more.

Of course

But you better know wtf you are doing or you will be taking it up the wazzoo:cryingcry

Works at Mansion too Fish..

Both sites would do well to sort out the buyback on totals before NFL/NCAA Foots start though..

If I'm o42 for $1000, u43 for $1000 (both EVS) should free up the funds imo

tkf18ny · Apr 27, 2006

Ive never played at either book so I may be confused but arent the lines actually worse than they appear due to the commison. For example if a line is listed at -110 and you bet 110 dollars and win you wont get a hunded you would get 98 (atleast on matchbook which I am looking at right now.) Am I missing something here?

beetman · Apr 27, 2006

Those lines weren't really that outrageous relative to Pinnacle. Pinnacle had Philadelphia between -144 and -147 for about 14 hours after they put out their opener, and the White Sox between -127 and -134 for about the same amount of time. They were great lines relative to the market line on game day, but they weren't specific to Mansion. If you know how to read the market well you can take great leads with any book with a dime line and early openers.

Santo · Apr 27, 2006

But what you can't do at any book is use the same money on 10 different scalps all going off at the same time

Doug · Apr 27, 2006

Why not ? If they all go off at the same time, and all have moved your way, you can start buying back with only a few dollars left, keep increasing available amount, and buy everything back, right ?

Key words stressed for Doug who although a betting wiz is reading impaired.

:thumbsup2:

The betting wiz pointed out how to scalp at exchanges with only a few dollars left.
