Ironically (or maybe not so), I'm a tax consultant, so I've read a fair amount of it...but that's beside the point. It was the first analogy I could think of.

the problem is that these questions have been asked and answered over and over....it's like the SSNL equivalent of folding KK preflop

I'll admit that while the general concept of a Wong teaser is fairly simple (especially considering how much it's been talked about here), the manipulation of lines by 5Dimes and other places can be somewhat tricky for those who blindly follow these Wong teasers (like myself) without really thinking much into the way the EV of the bet works.

Granted, blindly following anything isn't smart, but I don't mind considering I generally don't wager a whole lot on sports.

So I've been thinking deeply about wonging after last year's success thanx to Dali.

What I've been thinking about is the fact that the only book offering even money 2-teamers is 5dimes as far as I know, and they obviously shade the lines to make it look like there are more wongable games than there truly should be.

Last year I would often goto Pinny and check out their lines to kind of get a feel for which teams are truly wongable, by using their dropdown menu and choosing the spread closest to -110.

However, sometimes this can be difficult, as a lot of their spreads aren't exactly -110, and also sometimes they aren't relatively close to the -110 either.

So I was thinking, is there a way to look at the money line, and figure out what the spread would be based on that? Or is it not a linear scale? I was thinking that about 20 points in the money line translates to one point in the spread, but I could be way off, and am probably just over-complicating things.

Should I just be going off what the spread is closest to the -110, even if it is like 10 points or so off?
