Another tough one yesterday, but it’s what happens when you only have one pick.
We’ll stick to it today with a top bet in the NBA between the Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks.
And nothing is changing. I love following the money, especially the sharp money. Those are the bettors helping sportsbooks move lines when they are leaning too far away.
There’s one side of this spread that’s getting all the action. Let’s dive in…
Houston Rockets vs Dallas Mavericks
The line tonight is 10 points, with the Mavericks the favorite.
But it opened at 12.5 points. Since then, heavy bets have been rolling in on the Rockets plus the points, to get us where we are now.
This means they like the Rockets to cover the spread. And we want to roll with that tonight. The Rockets have been a bad team this season, but are coming off a win over the Wizards at home and will look to stay competitive in tonights game.
We’ll take Houston Rockets plus 10 points tonight.
Fanduel is paying out -110 for Rockets to lose by less than 10 points. That means a $100 bet will have the chance to payout $90, or a 90% profit. If you are looking for an opportunity to win $100, you’ll need to bet $110 on this game.
For us to win, we need the Houston Rockets to come out swinging and either pull off the upset, or lose by nine points or less. If they lose by exactly 10, our bet is tied and will be canceled. If they lose by 11 points or more, we will lose the bet.
