What are your general thoughts on a spread that is juiced up to -115 or higher? And what does that mean? As well as which side would be the correct play? Would it be the one with the high juice?

#7Anything up to -125 buying points is my limit... Lines are too sharp but I find value in buying off of key numbers like 6 in football or single digits in BballComment -

#8I think lots of time a book likes a number and so instead of moving off that number they just move the odds, like it will be -2 and we need -2 even if we give up a little juice to get it but cant move it to -3 or -2.5 or whatever. but reality is like always, you are still stuck paying very similar juice at -115 -105 -150Comment -

As far as the "correct" play goes, everyone has a different idea of that.
What those who beat the market consider to be the correct play will often be different than the typical everyday bettor.
Some think the correct play is the winning play but those in the game long term will recognize the hazard of that thinking.
It's not easy.Comment -

#10What does that mean? What do you mean? Understand that the books are manipulating the market and attempting to steer or even stop moneyflow. A -115 price can do a lot for that. The books may also use -115 lines on low volume or low limit offers as well, to increase their own potential margins.

At end of day as you know all a talented capper does is get on plays that have a better chance of cashing than line suggest, do that repeatedly over the course of the season and you should end up in good shape!!! Sounds easy, lol.Comment -

#11Often times the result has Little to do with whether a play was correct or not. Think that one of things guys struggle with a lot. Good plays often lose, bad plays cash plenty.

And truthfully, especially with some recent large spot plays, I've won some bets I know I should be thankful for winning as they never should have been made. Even though they won, I shouldn't make them again.

#12Absolutely. I’m far more concerned w my grade on a game afterwords. I know if I continually have good grades it typically pays off over a entire season!Comment -
