Preparing for Thursday and Friday Ncaa Tournament games
every year..i liek to state a few items t help people prepare for the tourney games every year...the flodd gates open at 930 amd and if your not prepard you can miss games etc
#1) KNOW THE TIMES......its sad, every year at the sports book..you see some poor shmoe who forgot Maryland was the 930 game and tries to sprint up to get the lay in but to no avail.....
on a piece of paper write the game in order based on time..not region.....930,940,950,1010,150..etc etc.......that way you know what is coming up ........many betting websites list the game based on the Game number..not the time..so don;t htink the top one is the first one
2)Review your bracket....if yous pend time doinga bracket...why bet Nevada +1.5 whne you have them beating Mich St...take the money line..the extra point is nice...but play the mney line and save the juice......don;t go aganst your bracket......many times if youc heck at the end of the tourny ..the teams that won the game also covered..
3)...GET TO A SPORTS BAR......don;t be suckered into bettingt he regional game that CBS is showing..either get the Ncaa Pass or get to sports bar...... i knwo many guys who live out here but really like the Byu ,Syracuse game...but because the game they are showing is Pacific.....they will ubnload on some team they did no home work on........
4) Place a few of your bets the night before...webistes and phone lines get crowded.......these are top nothc coaches...players iwll not be arrested Overnight making your game a bad bet.........have faith.....
5)..Pick one game a time slot....is it really fun having 4 bets between 4pm and 630....its otugh......your up , your down...2 games are winninng and 2 games are losing..then they flip flop...you end up going nuts and never really enjoying one good game.....find the one per time slot you like and play that hard
6)Parlay.....Parlay can give youa ction without risking alot...its easy to have an opnion on every gae but don't get caught up betting all 16....plus the totals...corral 3-4 in a parlay..you may hit but even if you lose you don;t get expose your self...rememebr thier are as many game son firday as on thursday...and saturday and sunday the games get easier to cap...so don;t blwo your wad all on Thursday
