Trinidad is the favorite (- $$), Vargas the underdog (+$$). Also, presuming they are using a standard 40 cent line when the favorite is -180 (40 dollar difference in the price of the fave and the 'dog), the split between the price of a -385 favorite and the underdog would be a lot greater, with the dog being closer to 3-1 (If you double the original line -360 turns into +280 for the underdog). The odds diverge and you pay greater juice the greater the favorite is. I learned all this stuff the hard way a long, long time ago.
