    ever any situation on a game.i know when your bankroll is under 10,000 10 percent is very common to some players.im talking about a person who is a millionaire.do you think they would put 100k on a game.

      Yes. And not because they are scalping.

        If the Colts were -3.5 everywhere, and you could bet at -2.5 (and get paid), what % would you bet?

            No such thing as Game A being Better than Game B

            In todays game and parity/tight lines sports betting is much tougher

                  If he felt his advantage was high enough some would bet more than 10 percent.

                    If the Colts were -3.5 everywhere but -2.5 at Pinnacle, what % would you bet?

                    And on which side?

                        I lost well over 10% on Nebraska ML against Iowa St., they lost the turnover battle 8-0, 3 fumbles inside the 5 yard line and lost 9-7 sometimes you are just jinxed.

                            10% is way too much on one play, if you don't have anything on the other side.

                              That seems high on any one play if you had a proper bankroll.
