You’re acting like a child. It’s embarrassing…just move on.

I get that you're crashing out from my Chiefs going to another AFCCG while your team goes to cancun, but you made claims you can't back up and chose to talk shit, I'm merely returning the favor bud.


If you want to move on, don't fucking quote me and reply? That's literally more childish lmao.

Some flaws in the commentary and I don't want to write a novel so I'll try to make it short and sweet.

1. Bovada is not the standard, its Lake's chosen book due to two metrics, vigorish and data availability provided to maddux for grading.
2. We absolutely can "shop books", as evidenced by the existence of this thread which does just that.
3. Splitting the value of a moneyline wager 1:1 does not move "real odds" on the wager. It makes the payouts better for everyone, sure, but the EV% goes to the favorite bettor.

If you have an 80% chance to win and receive a 16% gain in payout value, you've net 12.8% EV in the split.
If you have a 20% chance to win and receive a 17% gain in payout value, you've net 3.4% EV in the split.

The Favorite bettor gains 9.4% EV over you in doing so.

4. In a spread bet, the lines are usually like -105/-115. Both of you are giving up value for your points. Splitting this by nullifying the vigorish gives value to both bettors, without affecting "real odds".

Its literally "my chiefs -8.5 vs. your texans for 100k" and its jsut a direct 100K wager based on the points, no value lost.

Move on

Where to? Cancun with the Bengals?

Yeah

Ah yes spread split being 1:1 of course is best, I agree. And I understand what you are saying from that EV standpoint, but again any lines or spreads will be compared with bovada in this forum because of lakes book. I understand there are many different books out there and have better odds depending on which side you're betting, but those books are not available here besides bovada lines. You can make your own threads with your own bets obviously, but I'm saying it will be compared to bovada lines because that's the book that lake uses

My dude.

You’re wrong.


You split the difference here.

Unless you’re lakeshow’s sports book we always split the difference.

Stop telling others they're wrong you’re looking like a fool.

For the fourth time now, you goofballs need to read. I didn't say we don't split, I said you wouldn't split this to -400. Moreover I followed up by including the values of all other books, pointing out how far off the moneyline supplied actually was.

I am not wrong, I was never wrong, and even OP admits he used a book that made him look shady.


For the love of god, read more and talk less when your IQ is at room temperature.
