I got a few requests to do like a line service on the forums here, and I agreed. However, that was too much work, and I didn't feel like doing it. So, what I can do instead is post a daily thread here with analysis for different sports. I will not be discussing every game--because not every game has value--but I will be discussing line moves, what I like, etc. (No, I will not tell you what I love). This thread will be updated throughout the day.
MLB- General Tips:
- The two best bitcoin sports books for baseball are bitcoinsports.eu or bitbook.biz. Overnight and 10-cent lines are a must
- As The Miracles would say, shop around. Always go for the best number. In the long run, if you get a team at -150 and elsewhere it's -155, you have value
- Since the start of the season, many public bettors have been staying away from the Houston Astros, and as a result, sports books are over adjusting on that. Here's where we go ahead and scalp. Take the series match up yesterday, Seattle opened at -139. Later on, Houston was +145. That's a free, $6 per $100 wagered.
- LA Angels/Oakland A's - I digg LA here. Yeah, they're off to a slow start only going 2-5, the A's (6-2) have 3 wins from Houston. And let's face it. Every team would win the opening series against them. Angels are currently -127 over at bitcoinsports.eu, and I believe they should be around -130 or -135ish.
- NY Yankees/Cleveland Indians - Under. Despite the Yank's covering the over 6 of their 8 games, this one is going under. There's no way Cleveland is going to allow them to get another 10+-run game. I don't see a btc book with the game yet, however, offshore has it at 9 -114. We all know 9 is a key number, so it's better to get it now than see it drop to 8.5. I would wait just a bit, though, and see how the line works. People might be a little confident with the high-scoring games lately, so odds could creep in our favor.
