I see it every year, people put down large bets in the playoffs because it's the end of the season. They don't want to handicap another sport or want to make a quick double up and then cash out. The worst thing about this mentality is that the lines at this time of the year are the sharpest! With only 2 games to set lines for, you better believe they are pretty damn accurate and you're not getting much, if any EV.
If you have used good bankroll management the entire year, don't screw it up by making a larger than average bet on one game. You don't have any extra edge and are just betting with your heart. I'd recommend playing props, futures, or small wagers (including live betting if you think you have an edge) for these last 3 games of the season.
