For example, James Shields may be pitching for the Tampa Bay Rays against the Phillies and Roy Halladay.

The line may be listed at 6.5 but you look at it and say "I don't care who's pitching that number is just too low & too risky".

10 and 6 are the numbers too high and too low respectively for my taste.

I have never had a certain number for baseball.
But when I use to bet football I would never go below 34 or above 49 in the NFL.

the only ones worth playing are ones that are too high or too low. If it's too high, play the under; if it's too low, play the over. Anything else, pass

There is a reason that totals are too high or too low...a wise man once told me to bet the highest game on the board over and the lowest total under....

It will be very interesting to see the over/under on the Dogers and Angels Sunday. Weaver vs Kersher with both teams not hitting their weight.

I think the juice is a bigger flag. Over 11 -125 or under 6 1/2 -125 would not be anything I would play.

Shhhhhh


I was told this too by an old timer while at the Syardust many years ago..

Works more often than it does not. Virgo will back me here. The higher the total the more I like the over and vice versa...
