They charge lots of juice compared to Pinnacle. The only bet I placed there was Klitschko to beat Chris Byrd last Saturday. Easy money.

[Yads]

The vig they charge is pretty high. I do most of my sports betting on Mansion, Pinnacle and Bowmans (same juice at Bowman's, but I can find some rogue lines on hockey there)

I think Barry Greenstein in "Ace on the River" warned about the evil of sports betting to poker players. That being said, I have money riding on the San Jose Sharks!

I've been making more sports-bets then usual. And I've been making more of them on WSEX then I normally would even though I can see the better lines on Pinnacle right in front of my face.

Basically, if it's only a couple pennies difference I just go ahead and make the bet on WSEX (such as -108 on pinnacle, but -110 on WSEX).

As others have mentioned before, if you bet 100% of your total rake-back on sports it's STILL like 90-95% rake-back if you are just picking games randomly.

And I don't even come close to blowing through 100% of my RB on sports. Just a bunch of $10 bets on MLB and NBA games.

I ran REALLY hot in my baseball picks to start.
I've cooled off some since then but am still in positive territory for my WSEX sports-betting career.

I have 4 MLB and 2 NBA games bet for today. A lot of the games looked pretty decent to me today.
Even betting as liberally as I have, there have been days where I just couldn't find any lines that captured my interest.

Many times wsex's lines are a lot better than pinnacle's ones.

What are those picks MicroBob. I'm running really bad

[MicroBob]

i'm pretty sure you don't want to copy my picks.

running hot = guessing good despite not knowing crap


I can occasionally get a line at WSEX for a penny better than pinny (ha ha, it sort of rhymes).

But usually (like 90% or more I would guess) the MLB lines are better on pinny...oftentimes on BOTH sides.

[MicroBob]

Okay, since you asked so nice.
note, Fossum for TB doesn't evactly overwhelm me. Just hoping he has a good outing.
same for Claussen for CIN.

These are all $10 picks for me and I'll probably go 0-4.
YMMV.

TB +148 vs BOS (now +146)
SD -113 vs LA
WAS +151 vs STL
CIN +146 vs HOU (now +142)

About 2 weeks ago with my rakeback payment, I bought 53 Devils futures to win the cup at $4 each.

Depending when I hedge some of it or dump it, I am gonna put a beatdown on this place.
