Bet Jamaica has them:

Pleasers (NFL / NCAAF)*NEW*

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah they've got them but two things:
1-keep an eye on the spreads. I saw two +5.5 games(SCar & Memphis)with pleaser odds of -.5. Those were the only two I saw that were off though.
2-they are only paying 5-1 on them. It should be 6.

Interesting.. yeah the 5:1 is gonna make things difficult. We need 40.9% winners to break even. The 3-teamers at 13:1 need 41.5%. I'll have to look at the data some more tonight, I think there were some small ranges that had a higher % than that, but I don't know whether they were significant.

there are a few spreads where the 6 pt pleaser has run good enough to win at 5 to 1. However, these are all instances where the spread itself has been significantly off from 50/50. IE, if one thinks there is something to that historical data, just bet those spreads as the edge is larger.
