Do you bet less on smaller type stuff because the bet is an abnormal type of bet

[Iceman]

Tough question to phrase. Hope it is easy to understand what I meant.

Like stuff like team totals or props, etc... As compared to game sides.

Do you bet more on the game sides cause they are more common type plays. I know I do. Something I need to work on.

If I find a good proposition sometimes I bet even more than usually of course if the maximumlimit is not too low.

Iceman,

If I like a PROP, I usually bet it more...because usually the props are not as sharp as the lines.

Don't you agree?

 

[downtown2222]

Thats my take on it atleast..

 

[whalewager]

You bet less because limits are lower...lines aren't nearly as sharp and bets can easily be scalped.

My local has a max on in-game props of 50$. Season props max of $1500. In game NBA props are something that can be beat on a regular basis. I don't know why I don't take more of them, because when I do take them, I usually win. Love taking Danny Granger and Al Jefferson over's in points and or points and rebounds

people bet small on smaller time events. but should be the opposite. Your 2nd half bet on a meaningless non confrence game bvetween 2 mindmajors should have bigger edge than the superbowl.

Well said.

 

[Railbird]

they should not be scalped, thats throwing money away

The Ultra big events also have really soft numbers because the books can get 2 way action easier. Its why you never see a sharp superbowl number.

 

[$tinky]

Yes i do bet less, but i still be as much as I can.

I know a few scalpers that do it for a living...

 

[VIEJODINOSAUR]

Especially fixed tennis matches...

 

[BillyWaltersJr+]

I flat bet everything, and it works well for me.

With that said, I haven't played a prop bet in over a year and don't plan on it anytime soon.

A lot of middles as well.

Rail being very sharp here.

 

[whalewager]

Rail is about as sharp as a fucking tether ball.

What? You don't think the Superbowl has the softest number? It's so late in the season the oddsmakers are worn down and typically just throw a number out there

actually rail sorta has a point but i think he phrased it wrong...i used to tell my friends i bet on movie openings and they thought i was nuts but they were some of the safest wagers ive ever made in my life....i seriously knew i couldnt lose on some of them...scary thought...

my biggest bets (seriously like 20-50X bigger than my average wager in something like football) in the past were on opening 3 day weekend movies bc i had info to presales/sellouts and reports from all over the country from movie boards

it was a cashcow before Pinny/WWTS/WSEX stopped offering bets bc they knew they were beat....

i distinctly remember POC2 and how it was a license to print money at Pinny and wsex....god those were the days....
