There's always been talk about fixed games on here, from NFL to college basketball but none really hold water other than College Basketball. Here we have an opportunity of a few people to dictate a result without too much furor as they win their games regardless. What you need to look for is +10 point favourites that consistantly get beat on the spread, which are usually 1 or 2 points up at H/T, they are the tell-tale signs. As for betting, its not steam, look for a steady drop from the opening price that goes under the radar.Of course all this is with the assumption you can get a bet on.
Back in the day when the Pistons played at Cobo arean, the Piston's covered the 'under' 13 out of 14 consecutive home games.
After about 7 games, gamblers started to smell a rat.
No matter how low the books made the under, the game managed to fall under that number.
Well, 3 weeks later, it was learned that the 24 second clock operator was in on the fix.
What he did was, he kept his finger on the button, and didn't release it until a good 3-4 seconds after the ball was rebounded, all the time nobody caught on to the fact, that the inbounding team really had 27-28 seconds to shoot, not 24.
