Where I work our 2h point total was 23.5. There must've been a glitch on the website. I also just checked therxforum and they have all the online sites at 23.5. The OP must've misread.

rull of thumb: NEVER BET THE MAJORITY.

sometimes it doesn't work but, 75% of the time it pays to bet the "minority" if you catch my drift.

Not even close to 75% of the time. More like 50% of the time

But that doesn't make a made up statistic sound very impressive. Seriously though, if somebody is winning at a 75% clip, I'll hop on that train.

Maybe that's one of the two teams' total.


It was Seattle's total, not the combined total. I tried to explain this to zealot earlier but I guess it fell upon deaf ears

I've never bet the O/U during LIVE games. My book said 10.5 was the O/U for both teams. Since it was the same, I assumed it was legit and it was the only O/U on the board.
