More than you will need. Plenty in-play as well much more in-play $$ than bases.

Once there is no value left in the lines, you will be able to bet as much as you want.

How is the liquidity for college football? And do they offer live betting?

Matchbook will have the best juice for NFL every season. for American Football bettors, that's the best choice..

JoeDogs, liquidity hasn't been very good this baseball season with Matchbook so if you're satisfied, you are going to love football season.

If you want first crack at opening lines..bookmaker or greek, but after that you cant beat MB

It's not just opening lines, MB volume early in the week was often $250-$500, it was only Thurs or later that you got up to reasonable volume.

If you bet NFL moneylines, you'll love Matchbook. Halftimes are great too. But get an account at The Greek for opening numbers.

Do opening numbers matter that much in the NFL? I know getting a better number is always better say getting -4 and then at gameday its -6 but does history show that it matters that much? Every game i ever bet in the NFL is always 5 minutes to 30 minutes before kickoff.

Have you ever lost a bet by a 1/2, 1 or 2 points? Yeah, it matters.

On halftimes, The Greek posts an opening number. The line will move. Matchbook will then post a number for the exchange. Its worth the time to look at the opening numbers. If you want to win at this, its a must.

Do you know if line moves like a team -3.5 to -4.5, do those bets more often than not cash? I'm talking about the first line change.

Does anyone know if every single game on Sunday before gametime will have lot of money to be matched even on totals? Will it be pretty much 1 cent lines during gameday and you probably will have to TAKE an offer no matter what as oppose to offering because there will be lots of offers? Baseball is great for betting sides but for totals... there's very little people putting offers there

There won't be all you can eat on all totals, even at kick-off.

You will get better value (Low Juice) and the ability to get your wager down using Parlaymakers for a lot of those things you can't really use MB for like totals, alt runlines, 1st halves and 1st half totals for Baseball and early lines. A combination of Parlaymakers and MB for football and baseball this year would give you everything you could possible need at the best price.

point spreads do not move often on matchbook usually the juice is what moves so I would get familiar with the half point calculator because there is a lot of low lives on matchbook who throw out way overpriced numbers hoping to take advantage of those who are willing to pay too much juice because they think they are benefiting by getting a half a point.
