    Using JM's rules, you're supposed to use the ML or buy the 3 pts. WINNER

    Here are JM's rules for big spreads.

    Now, there are cases where the favorite spread is too large and you may not feel
    completely comfortable with the odds (betting on the money line when your team is a
    big favorite would typically require you to risk a large sum just win a small amount, and
    sometimes that’s just not a good value for your bet). In these situations, there are 4
    ways to approach these types of series:
    1. Bet on the money line as normally instructed.
    2. Bet on the money line, but appropriately lower the amount of your bet to compensate
    for the higher odds.
    3. Bet on the point spread and buy 3 points, but do not continue wagering on the series
    if your team wins the game outright, but does not cover on the spread
    4. Skip the betting series altogether.
    Based on my research, it is not advisable to continue betting on a team in a series
    where they've managed to win a game outright, but fails to cover on the spread. If you
    feel uncomfortable betting on the money line, you may opt on option #3, or option#4 to
    skip the series altogether in the future.

    Hi **,
    Please keep in mind that I follow the JM - V1 only ( I don't use V2 or V3 ).

    Here’s the original NBA betting system in detail. In a nutshell, you will be betting that;
    one team is going to win at least one game against the spread in a 3-game away series
    where all three of their opposing teams are from the opposite conference, buying 3 points on all of your bets along the way. This is a bet that you will win more than 97% of the time based on historical results.

    Looking at the schedule I have;
    Tonight- Indy @ Sac
    Tomorrow- Indy @ GS
    Thurs-Indy @ Portland

    Hope this helps.

    Some info in regards to covid postponed games and make up dates. Courtesy of ESPN.

    Postponed games are likely to be rescheduled in the second half of the season. The league has released schedules only through March 4, saying earlier this season that the second half would also include "any games postponed ... that can reasonably be added to the second half."

    Below is the NBA Champ system bet for today:
    Hawks {A} bet. This was supposed to be an official series that started with the {A} bet on January 13th when the Hawks played against the Suns. However, due to COVID concerns the game was postponed. Today would be the {B} bet if that {A} bet had lost. Since the {A} game was not played on the 13th, we can treat today's bet as an {A} bet. But please keep in mind that if you decide to start this series today, there will not be any possibility to go to a {C} bet if it gets there. The potential {B} bet is on 1/15.

    I'm pretty sure tonight's Wash game should not qualify as an Official C bet using V1 rules. All 3 series plays are supposed to be on the road and out of conference. Wash is playing at home against the Hawks.

    The problem is that "John/Tony/Whale" has never been able to understand "his" own system!

    Interesting “B” loss. I thought the system required 3 games per V1?

    Detroit is a B bet tonight against the Nuggets.
    The Pistons have the worst road record in the NBA at 1-8, and should be downgraded to an unofficial bet.
    I will probably take a pass on the rest of the series.
    We do have Boston coming up for tomorrow night against GS.
