nycballer, make sure you're using the no-vigorish price (aka mid-market price). If you have no idea what I'm talking about then read my article here.

ImNew is the master of using this. The Pinnacle lean is never a bad way to bet IMO.

Well if this is what you intended to mean it's not what you said. HOU -3.5 -112 is *not* the no-vigorish price, so you don't have the 3% edge you suspect. The no-vig price is -108, so your EV is about 1.37%.

Now lets assume for a second you were indeed using -108 as the no-vig price. If so, having 3 cents better than this price does not equate to a 3% edge.

Either way I'm just trying to help you out.
