This shit is crazy, Spain went from -365 to -500 overnight on one of my books.  Free scalp money left and right.  Unders/Favs have been doing this all tourney.  Looks like they changed up and are making a bunch of 2's instead of 2.5's going forward.

What do you mean -365 and -500?  Spain went from -135 to -155 (now) on Pinnacle, what do you mean by those lines?

Im confused.....

What are you looking at? Must be a "Draw- No Bet" line?

Is the Greece bet under 2 for both teams for the game or Greece as a team under 2?

Van on 1 of my books they offer many game totals. I hope you can answer my question before the start of the second game. Under 1.5,2  is equivalent to an under 2 wager? Correct? The reason I ask is that it is at even right now. Thanks.
 
2-0 Spain.

2-0 Spain.
 
 
 

IMPORTANT:

Anytime you see a split betting line like you are saying "under 1.5 and 2" means that half of your bet will be on 1.5, and the other on 2.

So if you bet 100 on under 1.5 and 2 at +100, you have 50 to win 50 on under 1.5, and 50 to win 50 on under 2.

Same goes if you bet for instance Spain -.5 and 1.  Half of your bet at those odds go on Spain -.5 and half on Spain -1.

So it is not the same as Under 2, it is worse but the odds are better.

If the score ends 2-0 then I have a half win and half void.

No, you have half a loss and half a void if you bet the under 1.5 and 2 and it ends 2-0.

Congrats on this run Van.
 
You did tell everyone you were going to kill on this tourney and 7-0 or whatever you are is a pretty good start.

Van if both teams play similar to Romania in your opinion, is this going to be a really boring game? That Romania game had FE dozing off. I can only imagine what two teams playing like them will look like.
