You really should either: A. Post these run lines in MLB games
B. Use odds in MLB games

If I were betting on the Indians tonight to win by 1.5 runs, I shouldnt have to also lay 29/20 odds. Its one Or the other.

go here http://www.superbook.com/livesports/indexmember.php?sportsname=baseball and click on MLB lines. Second column is what I am using. There is a separate option to bet without the "spread" but the odds aren't very good. I don't make this stuff up on my own.

Also, if you bet the Indians -1.5, you are getting almost 3 to 2 on your money. You will make more money if you take that than what you would if you bet them straight up (25/28)

Thats where you have it wrong. Cleveland -1.5 at 29/20 means if you wager 580 for Cle to win. You would only be winning 400, plus they would have to win by 2 runs.

Thats all OK though. You volunteer your time doing it and if I dont like certain odds I dont have to play.

If you wager 580 at 29/20 you win 841. Greater odds because they have to win by 2 runs so that bet would be considered the "underdog" compared to KC +1.5.

Like I said, I got this from a online book. I highly doubt they have it incorrect.

September, how much did you win on your bet of 500 on CLE -1.5?

Yeah. I got your point, or I wouldnt have bet it. I was wrong!!! Would have been nice to have a MLB game today, though.
