lightsout,
you are moronic if you are claiming that a bookie is not hoping for near equal action on the games. Why in the hell do you think spreads are created? To lure people into betting evenly on the matchup.
Take this as an example:
Bookie takes 100 bets on Monday Night Football game. Colts vs. Patriots, Patriots favored by 3. It is a bookie/sportsbooks nightmare if 85 people take the Patriots. They don't want to lose all of that money. By getting more even bets, the bookie is going to make money no matter what.
If you're bookie would rather take the 85-15 spread, then I would deem him an ignorant person...
Stick to your plan. - Just like the market there will be ups and downs. You need a good "call -off" person, and possibly expand a bit.
I would add parlays. Keep it at a 3-team max, and protect yourself a bit. I know there are a few who will disagree, but going from a (12-5) for a two team to (5-1) for a three team is a big plus in your favor. How many times have you gone 2/3 in parlay action ?
Stick to your guns ! - Best of luck !!
