    Getting a Good Line is Critical
    Yesterday, I didn't have the luxury of shopping aroun and waiting for my number, and it burnt me.

    I ended up getting Temple at -2, rather then -1.5........resulting in a push.
    I ended up getting Wofford at -7.5, rather then -8.5......resulting in a loss.

    These two half points resulted in a losing day, rather then an even day. Geting good numbers is more important then handicapping the games, and looking for edges.

      I was on the opposite side of that BYU/Wofford game. I got BYU at -8.5 instead of -7.5. So the 3 pointer Wofford hit with 1 second left to move within 8 resulted in a loss for me.

          Hindsight is 20/20 ebb. Didnt think I'd need to buy a half point from 7.5 to 8. Maybe could have in the Temple game, but I chose not to.

              only reason i was wondering is cause i bet wofford and took the half a point, cause i saw the line drop a point right before i bet it, and i've been beat badly lately,

              what did you beat today regul8er?
