I decided to wait until right before game time to make my plays today under the assumption "Bet favorites early Bet dogs late".


It seems however I would have been much better off taking the dogs last night at around 1130pm, Especially with 5Dimes nickel line....

any thoughts on this?

its early in the season. 2 of the three games played have been won by very big dogs including last nights game on ESPN. Let a few favorites win and Joe Public will fall back in love with the favorites.

You have the right idea.

Remember one thing, and this applies to all sports.

Many SQUARES have jobs during the weekdays, thus they dont have time to wager, so you will not find as many bettors betting large favorites at this time.

However, not saying it is the case here today for certain, but something you need to ponder.

Conversly, you will see many favorites be bet up on weekends, especially TV games.

okay, soperhaps in a situation as today, where most are at the office with the big dogs winning early I should have pulled the trigger last night...

On the weekend or for High profile teams, pull the trigger late if betting dogs...


MV, I certainly noticed that, did you see the VIG MOVEMENTS IN THE oriloes game aswell as the JAYS game today on the total? WACKY STUFF...

SS- The total movement in the O's game was mainly attributed to the weather.

Another point to consider......

Most books across the board have lower limits on totals, thus it will take less total action to move them overall.........and they will move fast when word spreads on certain weather conditions, be it the cold or the wind direction.
