This is precisely what I have been doing for years.......and with proper MONEY MANAGEMENT.......and I know this is a BIG statement..........BUT YOU WILL PUT YOURSELF IN A POSITION THAT WILL MAKE IT VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU TO LOSE!!
Remember my three rules about the NFL that I have preached in these forums since day one.
1. NEVER lay over 3 points
2. Get the BEST number
3. Bet against JOHN Q. PUBLIC
But what is amazing is this.........the SMALL MINORITY of bettors that will NOT EVER follow this wisdom..........and ACTULLY will do just the OPPOSITE of the three criterias I just mentioned..........AND THAT IS PROOF WHY THIS WILL ALWAYS BE A SURE FIRE WAY TO PUT MONEY IN YOUR POCKET!!!
Also, for good feng shui carma, ALWAYS put the lid down on your tiolet seat at home.

I responded to this thread in the CBB forum, though it seems there is a better discussion going on here in the offshore.
FISHHEAD, I agree with #2, and don't with #'s 1 and 3.
Simply put, if there is value in laying more than three points, why wouln't you? I'd be extremely interested to hear you answer.
Second, my biggest pet peeve is those who simply make a bet just to fade "John Q. Public."
Generally, I've found that it is usually Jose Q. Public that fades his brother John. The fact that people think they are sharp by simply fading wagerline numbers, or what the consensus of some posting forum is on, is ridiculous.
I tend to agree with Daryl Parsons. The less heavily bet sports are the easiest to beat. It's only logical for a linesmaker to spend the most time on the sports that recieve the most action. Thus, the most heavily bet sports have the sharpest lines.
Personally, I will spend more time on the Women's NCAA tourney than the men's. I'd be a fool not too, when the women's lines are much, much weaker. Eventually, bookmakers will begin to catch up on these sports, but I don't forsee that being any time soon.
