It won and lost me a game earlier this week. It's an easy way to make the spreads more even. I don't make it up, I have an odds source.

 

[musclemuscle]

where do u get this .5?

how can u say .5 when there is no such a score

 

[n0th1ng]

Yeah, I don't understand the .5 either..

 

[musclemuscle]

i wish i saw that before i bet

we need an explanation for this .5 shit

 

[swole]

Wow. Ok.

Say you bet on the Padres and they win the game 6-5. Now subtract 1.5 from their score. You just lost because instead of 6 they have 4.5. You need the .5 to rule out the possibility of a tie.

All set maings?

In other words it sucks...all of the games have the underdog winning by 1.5 and getting less payout and the favorites -1.5 and more payout...does NOT make sense to bet on any of these! Why would you bet that the heavy favorite would loose by not 1 but 1.5 and get less payout than the other option
