    Well if percentages are very off in either direction in the 1h then the 2h tends to correct itself so value can be had. Often times if a good team performed very poorly 1h then taking them 2h can be the best option. It's all case by case though.

    When the favorite covers the 1stH, and the Half goes under by 10 or more points take the over 2ndH.

    So lets say Team X is -4 and the total is 62, both first half lines. The 1stH score is 32 -18, w/ Team X leading always take the second half over. The team that is down, will already have an underdog mentality, and play the second differently mainly full court pressure w an uptempo offense. All of this in order to make up for the deficit w/ a limited amount of time.

    totally agree with the above trend..i also like to use if a good home team fav..like -9 ,-10 ect.. is down at half..yes it does happen..i take the them second half if all they have to do is win by a few..or less than the original spread
