    Stanford -3.5. . .. 10,000,000 units

    There should be no units on here unless its a ML play. Every play should be based on 1 unit.

    I base my units on to win $100 bets. So if i put $200 on a game that is 2 units. If I like a game really well I may bet more money therefore up my bet or unit. Many people bet different unit amounts and Illusion counts your record and +/- units. So if I bet different units and win then I could go 2-3 and still make money or be up units or money overall even though I lose more games than I win. Why would a ML game be different according to your unit theory that everything is one unit?

    Iowa -6.5

    I've gotten screwed the last two games. I think Coach K knew the final line. He called a TO twice with 9.5s left so they wouldn't create a turnover and give up points.

    I was just saying just the fact of this thread, I think some people just put 3 units a game when they are only betting 1 unit or nothing at all. They just want to be on top of the standings the next day. If its a ML play then it would be ok because you can't just be 1-0 is you had a ML fav -500 or dog + 300. Im not telling you how to bet, just for the record keeping in this thread was my concern.
