And if you lose a 4 game series,you.re -15 units....
Can't chase after chase after chase.... Bad business...
For instance... 1st bet 100 at odds of -110 (same as all bets)... 1st game loses so your -110
.Next game you double 220. bet loses so your -352 with the vig...
Doubling that, 3rd game 704 bet loses = 774+352= -1126. That is just in a 3 game series trying to chase your bet back with very small lines. A favorite would cost you a lot more. And once you lose your first game your not even trying to make a profit just break even? Now I very well may be wrong because I've had a very long night drinking since the Bruins win, and crunching these numbers are hurting my head. But im pretty sure im correct. So if this is true, If you get swept in one 3 game series you will need to win 12 more series in a row before you turn any profit at all. Can't see how this can be profitable in the long run.
