I used to always add a "0.5" to every spread just to prevent that, but I think I stopped to help improve the overall scores.

John? Ozzie? Cathy? Anyone?

A push is neither a wine nor a loss - the bettor simply has his original wager returned. -Zeb On Dec 20, 2008, at 3:16 PM, Gatornet Admin wrote: I learned something new today.
