I consider myself a in between recreational to serious gambler, but wanted to find out how many people prefer to be on televised games vs games that are not televised. I know that I tend to do this but also realize that these games are tougher games to win. I have talked to several people about this topic and they and I also believe the best games to bet are those that are not televised as there is more value in many of these games. Personally, how do you approach these tv games, and what is your belief on which are the best fb games to wager on?

I Prefer To Be Able To Watch But It Has No Impact If I Will Play The Game. I Played Fla Atlantic Against Kan St For Instance And Actual Found And Internet Radio Feed. So My Answer Is It Maks No Difference But I Try To Pay Close Attention To My Games.

I would prefer to see the game I'm betting on. I hate internet updates and stuff. I like to witness the plays that give me a hearattack (ie memphis int at the end to win it for me)

however. if the game issn't on tv but the facts and the way it looks (ATS, trends, Kojak picks ;) ,etc) are there, I have no problem pulling the trigger on the game

I'll bet a game just because it's on TV.I"m a recreational gambler and i'm going to bet on the opening NFL game on thursday.

If this game was played on sunday..i would pass on this game.

I am sure this is true for most of us squares.

I used to do that -- bet a game just because it's on TV.

Now, I bet on a game because I like it. It seems to be working a lot better this way.

If you're in it to have a good time, sure. If you're in it to make money, no way.

Betting on TV games is better because there will be live betting, often quarter betting and you know more for haltime betting, all of which can help you maximize profits.

Doesn't enter my mind if the Game is on TV. If your betting a game BECAUSE its on TV, your playing with one hand tied behind your back

I really hate it when I bet a game and find out it's on my local channel. I'd rather find out the scores while watching another game. Other than the single night games SNF...MNF ....which I don't get to watch much of anyway.....I'd rather my bet games aren't on the tube.

Yes. Just like I bet on the Brewers game today since it starts at 12:30. I'm just crazy for the action baby!
