Actually at -110 the break even rate is hitting 52.38%, and most serious bettors are wagering at -105 worst case between all the reduced juice books and bonus. I think -105 is even high but if it was -105 the break even would be 51.22%
The advice of just betting the best games is great for both recreational and degenerate bettors but for anyone doing it as a source of income will be able to find several wagers per day where there is enough of an edge to overcome the odds and will bet each with varying bet sizes that accounts for the edge in each game.
