If you have money in matchbook and BetEd, i noticed many times during the week you have scalp opportunities but they are for very little profit. Like right now Arizona +135 on Beted and Cincy -127 on matchbook. Then you have Colorado +135 on Beted and LA Dodgers -132 or so on matchbook. Now i know that is very little money guaranteed profit even if you bet $500 on both sides, but i notice there are so many scalp opportunities especially when there are underdogs that no one likes.

My problem however is i got no money on beted so i cannot make these plays. But Bodog works as well for the underdogs in place of beted as well. Of course if you win your bets on beted, you might get limited to $1 so i guess you are hoping you lose on beted and win on matchbook?

Anyone else notice this?

Yes, but as soon as they notice that you've noticed this they will cut your limits to $1.

Is this what happened to most players who got their limits cut to $1? I notice every week you can scalp beted and matchbook

Yes, those that were limited were making +EV plays.

Are the +EV plays the taking these big underdogs at much better prices than other books for the MLB games?? Then why don't they lower the line then instead of making favorites this high and giving dogs this big of a price?

[pjesnik24]

because they only limit those players who bet the dogs and keep the players who do not check odds at other places and bet favourites at beted

[wrongturn]

yes, that is how they identify who is to boot.

they make more money shading the favorite and kicking those out that take advantage of the poor little sportsbook.
