    Love totals in all sports. Bet chalk and dogs equally, it depends on where the perceived value is.

    I read a piece by Ganch once where he suggested that for basketball it is best to bet the ML if you are betting the favorite and taking the points if you are betting the dog. He said something about that is the optimal way to do it as far as return on your money goes. Search for it. It goes against the theory that betting ML dogs is better than ML favs.

    In actuality, a bettor betting all favs blindly is going to do the same as a guy who bets all dogs blindly. Its whether you win money in the long run or not. You have to find the winners, dog or fav.

    It seems though that betting dogs would give you the benefit of the doubt when it comes to fluke games and such though.

    In baseball, roughly 75% Underdogs, 20% Totals, 5% Favorites of less than -130 (actually had one yesterday with Cubs). I never bet traditional Run Lines, will on occasion drop half a unit on Underdog -1.5 on Alt Run Line.

    2 teamers arent bad but I really dont risk as much as I do in straights .

    Soccer is my major one .

    Its fairly easy to cap if you follow the leagues and injury reports.

    I find that the Italian Serie A league and the English league are the best to bet on
