    If you mean softest lines, I would say NCAA hoops if you study up on the small teams and only bet those.

    Arena FB was great this season. Washington the last few weeks, especially tonight getting 11.5 and winning by 14 was a gift! It's lightly bet and there were just 4 teams to follow this season. Sad it's over...

    none

    nobody would work if one sport was easy

    Guys have a good year in a sport and they said it was easy, no it was random

    Study random numbers and events and sports betting fits right in

    Easier sports are only easier as books know less to frame the market. But have more vig to make up for it usually.

    Don’t be fooled by low limit sports it means there’s no volume Or a higher risk of foul play not because players beat it

    So many people go broke chasing some false dream

    The majority of professional gamblers are just arbors and bonus whores and hedgers That use very very limited risk

    If your taking bonuses on an offshore book your a moron anyway just another reason for them to lock up your money. If you have a winning system for a certain sport you don't need bonuses.

    20K bonuses? Dam sign me up lol...Like i said ill never do bonuses at an offshore because they can easily give you a run around when you go to cash out. I'm sure there are guys that do it but i wouldnt risk it just for that reason alone.

    In a way bookmakers are ho's as well. Trying to sell for value. What is wrong with being a ho? Take the money and run if it is there?

    but, one of your best pieces of analysis!!!

    None are really easy , you get your output based on the input you put in .
    For me , easiest is NHL
    NFL , might as well throw your money out the Fukkin car windows driving down the road

    Depends on the strategy.

    If you are hitting a winning percent you are hitting a winning percent.

    In that case, the "easier" sport to beat is the one that offers the most plays or opportunities as profit will be higher.

    It can also be better to lower your criteria and take less of percent, but get more games. In this case, you can again get more profit.

    If you are trading the markets or doing something similar to contrarian trading, you want opportunity, but you also want volume. You want big public markets and a lot of action.

    There is plenty of evidence that Totals are easier to beat in most major sports and I've shown that not only in the March Madness-a-thon power posting, but also in the contrarian market totals right now (which is a much smaller sample of course).

    Many players can beat the closer with college basketball totals and it offers them an excellent market for high volume profit.

    Smaller, less liquid markets, that have low limits and less volume, have both positive and negatives. You can pick winners, but the opportunity is less.

    Picking winners isn't the hard part in this, it's having the patience and discipline to do all the other things right.

    Or better put, to avoid doing all those things that make bettors lose and falling into those pits as the market tempts them.
