Basketball is very steaky and baseball has no time limit which are 2 things very beneficial to live betting. I've never bet live with football. Anyone have any experiences, tidbits, or food for thought?

I personally love quarter/half bets. If you watch the game you can almost always get the 2nd half/3rd quarter right.

I like playing 2nd half unders in games where there were a lot of turnovers resulting in points, runbacks etc during the 1st half. It can take a defense a half to settle in. If the game is low scoring to begin with, you can sometimes get a high 2nd half line. You need to look at the total neutral and unbiased. If a 2nd half line is 16.5 and they scored 20 1st half, you lean under. The over looks easy to someone not closely watching the game. Sides are tricky, sometimes capped to prevent a middle/hedge etc.

football is better and the type of bet depends on what you are good at spotting within games. cater to that and only that. For me it's 2nd half...never...ever spreads.
