    My model says to take Maryland , but one of my rules are that if the opponent has revenge i pass. Which i will.
    Maryland has its problems against good teams on the road, losses to penn st , s hall, iowa and wis ...Indiana has a few nice wins at home vs ohio st and last thursday vs micg st . Indiana needs to hit some 3's, doubt they will get easy baskets. I know nothing about matchups but it doesnt look like this is a good one for indiana ...ill just watch the game.
    Any thoughts ???

    I believe your spot on with your comments regarding Indiana vs Maryland. I not big on revenge angles for obvious reasons but your right when you say Maryland isn't a very good road team at this time but not many Big 10 teams are and Indiana isn't in a good spot with a quick turnaround coming off a big win. FWIW for those that like the angle unranked teams that are favorite over ranked teams the record is 4-10-1 that's the recent record for the month of Jan. Good Game to watch or ignore. Take a look at Iona -2 and Unlv if you can pick up at least a +7 there seems to still be a couple around.

    Jets, about 70% of my bets have of the Live Bet variety which I think is the way these days. For example yesterday I liked Texas over LSU and price was Texas -1.5/-2 but I caught a +3.5 with Texas a little into the game and Texas loses by 2 but I cash that bet. I make a list of the games I like and watch and then act. Yes it does cut down on volume which could be Bad or good depending on what type of player your are. The downside is downside is you have to be willing to pass a game you may like. I know some people that will play a small amount on the side or total they like and if the opportunity arises they add on at a better number if not they still have a bet. I think it's the future as books are reporting that live betting handle has been going up and up.

    I bring it up because your making your own numbers and with live betting you not only see teams (If You can) play and get a feel for what's happening in the game. There's also buy backs to consider even if you have pre game bet or a live bet that isn't going the way you thought. No hesitation just get out if you feel you need to. How many times have you bet a game and said looks like I have the wrong side. Now mistakes will be made but I think the ++'s far out-weight any mistakes that maybe made.

    One live bet I like is in the NBA . When the Home team that was favorite is losing by doubles in the 2nd period either in the first 5 minutes of the 2nd or even a little later if the number is right play the Home team. Remember the team has to be capable of coming back in others words no Cleveland or teams like that. "The NBA a game of runs" It doesn't happen every night but the % isn't that bad. This Maryland/Indiana game is a good example of taking a look how Indiana comes out in this spot which I consider a tough spot to get up early day and play basketball on a quick turnaround after a big upset win. Right now Maryland up by 14 and the Live is Indy +8.5 so you have options. I guess as of this writing Indy is effected of the quick turnaround early start, but it's early. The Books are just to good these days right from opening bell there on top of their game. Track it for a while if time permits.
    Good Luck Jets. Indy down 11 could be a little comeback in them.

    You just schooled me on something i never thought about, now that was a SSB moment for me , i already printed it.
    thanks for sharing. Am not smart enough or quick enough to live bet. Plenty , plentyyyyyy of times id like to get out of bets , just cant sit at computer and monitor every game.

    You don't have to sit at a computer all day just checking scores and seeing how the game is going sometimes is good enough. Talk soon take care. Baseball right around the corner. Good Luck to your son he has someone far away rooting for him.

    OT , thanks , yup this is it , he needs to pitch like he did this past summer and he has a chance to get drafted. Time will tell ,ill be down in fla the beginning of March to watch team , scouts will be there watching like every year so we shall see. Big disadvantage to northern teams when we go down, some of the teams we play have already played 10 to 15 real games before we played our first. My neighbor son who plays baseball for st johns just hurt his arm , he will find out tomorrow if he is lost for the season, that hurts, this kid will get drafted , st johns coach of all those years just left as well
