    Default Bet Size

    Say you are typically a 1% flat bettor betting $110 to make $100 on -110 lines. What would you bet on say a +160 line? $100? Or do you bet enough to profit $100? I looked at the Kelly Calculator and betting $100 on +160 would be effectively betting 0.8 Kelly, so this could be considered over-betting. Any tips? What about betting @ -160?
