When speaking of sports betting tips, are you familiar with the term ‘middling’ a game? If you’re not, you should be because it’s a great way to potentially make a huge profit without exposing yourself to very much risk at all. I’ll use an example from the NBA to explain the concept.
New Olreans is playing San Antonio. The game opens with San Antonio as a 7 point favorite. As the game is approaching though, we see there has been some serious line movement, and you might be surprised, but this happens from time to time.
The line moves so much that by game time, San Antonio is favored by 10.5 points. That’s a HUGE move, and one of a few important sports betting tips to remember, and what makes it so statistically significant is that it has moved by more than 3 points. Well if you had bet one side, and now bet the other side 3 points later, you have a reasonable shot at winning both bets. Why, 24% of NBA games land within 3 points of the spread. If it only costs us 5% to bet the game, or even less at a reduced juice shop, we have a good chance at making a great profit.
The best way to take advantage of these sports betting tips (without having a crystal ball) is to bet the favorites early (like right when the number comes out) and the ‘dogs late since most of the money tends to go on the favorites. Use these ‘middling’ opportunities to reduce risk and increase the chance of a big score and you’ll make even more money this season.
