thats 10 and off the top of my head... i go into each matchup, looking for reasons NOT to bet on a team, once i find one, the team is eliminated, if the reason is good enough..
today for example, came down to a play on clev or a play on the giants/angles Over 8.5... ultimately i decided on clev..
remember, in looking at things this way, im really only looking for one play. i dont want to get into a handicappers mindset and look for Value...
Value Players, have their place in this business but thats not for me...
with only 2 games to choose from, i actually didnt like the card... i was going to wager $200 on these games, as i did yesterday but the play on clev was so weak, i only went with $100..
