Episode notes
Be Wary Of Inflated Primetime Spreads
- Avoid laying huge spreads on short-rest primetime games; numbers can be inflated by recency and venue.
- Take the underdog or tease down when favorites jump from middling to double-digit spreads on thin evidence.
Use Teasers And First-Half Plays To Manage Risk
- Tease or hedge big favorites with totals to manage risk in uncertain primetime games.
- Use first-half or teaser plays to avoid backdoor covers and cushion primetime volatility.
Primetime Games Often Start Slow
- Thursday night games often start slow and suppress first-half scoring compared with Sundays and Mondays.
- Betting first-half unders or low first-half totals can exploit that primetime scoring lag.
