Is it smart to book bets from just two guys in the long run?

For the last two years, I have been holding bets for two guys. It has its ups and downs. But here lately, it has really been interfering with my personal bets. Seems like everything I have been betting has been devalued tremendously because they are betting the same thing. I have only won about 15 units off of them thus far this year. If you guys were in the same spot, what would you do? I alway thought I wanted to run a book, but with just two guys (who most of the time bet on the same thing), it is nearly impossible to get equal bets on each side. It doesnt quite seem profitable to book just two guys.... ???????

id say it doesn't seem worth the hassle if your not going to try and get more players though. or you could bet for them elsewhere and pick and choose what you want to hold yourself

Thats whay Im thinking Cuse. I didnt mean to sound like I was complaining. I was just saying Im not getting rich. Its starting to interfere with what im trying to do. It is a ton of hassle and I really dont want to go down the road of getting more guys.... can open a big can of worms. Thanks for the input and GL with the last game of your parlay tonight.
