In June I bet 500 bucks on the Dolphins over 5 season wins. Two weeks ago it looked like I'd donated that money to the sportsbook. Now I can't do worse than a push and one win in four tries doubles my money.
It was a value bet. The Venetian hotel listed Miami at over 5 even money. I knew that was too low. I really should have bet much more. Two weeks later the other sportsbooks had the number 5.5 and the over was nearly a 1/2 favorite. If I had been wise enough to bet big dimes over the 5 at even money I could have bet under 5.5 at +1.70 and guaranteed a nice profit regardless of outcome. In sports betting it's not just picking winners, you can twist the mathematical edge to your side if your timing and instinct are capable.
