Definition: Different than the standard 20-cent line, the "dime line" is sometimes offered in baseball by player friendly sportsbooks. The dime line charges only half the juice of standard football/basketball bets. A -200 favorite would usually make the underdog +180 on a 20-cent line, but with the "dime line" the underdog would be +190.

 

Also Known As: 10-cent line

 

Example: Doc likes betting on baseball because he can make an extra $10 on his underdog winners for every $100 he wagers with the dime line.
