I had two good years betting NHL knew nothing about teams I was basically playing high + ML"s. Knew my luck would run out so have not played but a few playoff games since that last 2 years!
Lay high favorite odds on games that don't land often on the lose by 1 is a losing formula. Look at the data its a sucker bet. Insurance and the illusion of safety.
Great advise by a long-time gambler who actually gambles large sums and is one that continues to improve his gambling game and not stuck in a stubborn style.
I have not read any other posts yet but this post giving advice to Le. If anyone buys points regularly or playing the 1.5 line than they don't know what the fvck they are doing. Again, the key words is regularly.
Lets be honest, If you need to buy points(insurance) than you should not be betting the game thinking it will get that close. This isn't the pre-2000s anymore. You don't have to pre-bet a game. Wait for the fvcking live line and get you cheaper mL/extra pts for free. Anyone encouraging you to lay extra chalk has non fvcking clue.
I would say i lay large money here as well for over 25 yrs i have a proven way of doing games, everyone has their own way a lot of games dont have live lines on them too, the bottom line what may work for one may not work for the other, i hate putting a lot of games in a parlay, but if it work for you do it..

If there was value in buying the ML over +1.5 long term, people would simply do that to the point where ML price becomes more expensive and the “value” would shift to the +1.5
That’s how markets work
Or course a lot of time the +1.5 hit ends up a ML winner as well
But probability wise the expected value/profit is basically identical. Market dynamics and history both show this
Winning in gambling is picking your spots and beating movement over the long run. Odds are always against you statically if you bet at market equilibrium because of price structure
