Situational Spot Betting Analysis

Analyzing daily line movement, going through teams schedules, overreactions to a line and recognizing the use of "buy low, sell high" opportunities is key to picking winners and growing your return on investment.   The ability to analyze line movements and decipher their meaning is something that takes a long time to develop.  Bettors can only acquire this skill by consistently watching lines daily and breaking down the movements week in and week out.

The Best piece of Sportsbetting advice I can give you

What to look for is: for instance the Heat open at -7 for the game and there is 74% of the betting market on them but the line went from -7 to -6 with only [...]
