Default Re: Theory question: How many lines are \"off\"?

I dont see how bet could be +EV on both sides? I would imagine if a bet was +EV on one side, that would necessarily make the other side -EV, or am I missing something?

sportsbook's profit on their own lines comes from the built-in juice on the same game. if you can book two different sources where the resulting combined price creates a positive surplus of juice on your end, then you've made an +EV investment.
