Remember: unlike arbs, middles lose a small amount most of the time and win big occasionally. Think long-term, not bet-by-bet.

What is a middle?
A middle is two bets on opposite sides at different lines, so that there's a gap in the middle where both bets win.
Example
- Bookie A: Over 2.5 goals @ 1.95
- Bookie B: Under 3.5 goals @ 1.95
- 0โ2 goals โ only Under wins
- exactly 3 goals โ BOTH win ๐ฏ
- 4+ goals โ only Over wins
Reading the Middles tab
- If Miss โ what you lose (or win, if it's green "arb!") when the result is outside the gap
- If Hit โ your profit if the result lands in the gap
- Window โ the size of the gap
Which middles are worth it?
- Lower "If Miss" is better โ under ~5% is good, 10%+ needs a high chance of landing.
- Basketball totals often give the best middles: lines are close and many games land within a few points.
- The Middles (Filtered) tab estimates the real chance of hitting football goal middles.
Remember: unlike arbs, middles lose a small amount most of the time and win big occasionally. Think long-term, not bet-by-bet.
