its not just half and half man.. You have to bet to win on the ML, whatever you risk on the RL. So with a one run win your ML bet cancels out your RL bet. Not super hard to figure out, however i had a spreadsheet on my old computer (i got it here) that calculated it in a second and you could put the odds in and whatever you wanted to risk and it would tell you what to bet on each. It was sweet.

I actually posted it on here a couple of times bc people asked me for it. However it was a couple of years ago and i can only see like my last 50 posts. Mods, anyway you can help me out (and other fellow RX posters) and give me access to look at all my posts. Or look for me?

Who needs a spreadsheet, just use 3rd grade math...

check out this thread

If -1 is a favorite........Unit size/(RL decimal +1) Bet this amount to win on the ML and risk this amount on the RL

For example, your unit size is $50, and the best you can find on the -1.5 is +130. 50/2.3=21.74........so you risk $21.74 on the RL, and bet to win $21.74 on the ML. The two bets can be at different books, depending on who has the best line for both.

Friends don't let friends bet the -1 line at Pinnacle. They will rip you off 3 cents every time, and that is just using their own lines, and not shopping both the ML and the -1.5 around. This is an easy shortcut that eliminates almost all the math.
