How many points do you need before you basically hedge yourself... or position yourself for a double win.
I know a lot of you probably don't do this due to the high probability of 'juicing out'... but at what point would you? I mean everyone has a price...
Example: Picked up PHX/GSW OVER 244 at -109... It hit 246 with the UNDER at -104...
I either lose $9 if it goes UNDER 246 or $4 if it goes OVER 244... they optimum would be a score of between 244-246 where both bets cash.
What do you guys think about this type of positioning? I hear this is how sharps/pro gamblers make a constant profit. They obviously wait for better spots than my simple example but predicting line movement can be monumental if you're good at it...
If you could get both at + money then you're laughing.
Another question... do books tolerate this kind of play? Is it wiser to do this with two different books?
Thanks.
