At 5 Dimes, they are offering a spread of:

-2 1/2 @ -185 and 48 1/2 -155

Why is that...?

I realize this has a higher juice, however I would assume they expect a tight game here and would want you to jump on the favorite and the over tonight, which seem to be obvious square plays based on all the stats we have available.

Comments please...is this something that is always available?

Remember-they put up these numbers to screw you. Rule of thumb is: Either advantageous number with juice so high it gives them the advantage-or low juice with a bad spread that puts you on the wrong side of key numbers. They do this all the time.

Thanks guys..

I didn't realize you could always get these #'s

Seems to me if you liked Manning at -5 @ -110 it would be worth the extra juice to get less than 3 for a number.

However having them offer this  juice at -2 1/2 seems to me Houston at +5 1/2 is the correct side tonight...
