I’ve always been a fan of the NFL (National Football League) but lately, it has become even more exciting since I started putting some money on it. Wait, you also do that? But you don’t have good tips for it? Don’t worry, I got you.
American journalist and author, Hunter S. Thompson once said “There are many harsh lessons to be learned from the trading experience, but the harshest one of all is the difference between having Fun and being Smart”. This quote is a piece of advice itself, isn’t it?
So, the reason for creating this write-up is that I wanted to make you understand NFL point spreads and instructions for successful players. So if you’ve been losing a lot lately, make sure to pay attention.
Let me ask you a question, what would happen if a team of giants and regular-sized people competed in a match of football? They will lose, right? But what if they get a head start by 10 points? There might be hope now, and if they don’t win, the losing margin wouldn’t be that high.
This is what happens in the point spread. There are two squads, the favorite and the underdog. If a match is going, favorites are given -7 (most common) which means their team has to edge out by 7 points.
On the other hand, underdogs are given +7 so they will be considered victories when their team loses by 7 or fewer points. This makes the game interesting, and even a loss is considered a win.
You might wonder why you should put the money on point spreads, right? I’m breaking down all the reasons below:
It doesn’t matter if you are a seasoned guy or just starting now, anyone can place the money and be a part of the community.
Now that you know all the basics, it’s finally time to give you tips for successful NFL point spread placements:
Oddsmakers don’t predict who is going to prevail; rather, they instead predict what the public is going to do. They spread at 3 points most of the time because usually, the game ends with 3 point difference. Be attentive and look for numbers 3,7, and 10 as these are the point differences at which most games end.
Pay attention to recent events, such as what strategies were followed, who got injured, and what the teams’ next steps were. You can also make some simple guesses, like a squad with a strong offense can take down one with a weak defense. Other factors like home-field advantage should also be taken into consideration. Generally, it’s a good idea to follow experts to keep yourself in the loop. Doc’s NFL predictions can be of great help with this.
Point spreads shift based on different patterns and breaking news. They aren’t static. You should monitor certain events, like a star player being ruled out. If you can follow such moments, you can insights into how professional player are placing their money. Which will help you as well.
Never forget this, don’t place more than you can afford. This can put you in great financial strain if you lose. Even professionals struggle with it, and you are no exception. Set apart a small amount for this and only use it, no extra money
