Detecting Sucker Bets - In sports betting, there is an unspoken rule where if it looks too good to be true, it probably is! Loot gives some examples of such and gives tips on how to deal with these occurrences.

Don't Neglect Totals - Loot urges readers to consider giving over/under bets more attention. He points out that they're easier to beat, hence why bookies offer lower limits on these bets. They also pay less attention to these lines, so they're not as sharp, which makes them vulnerable to getting beat.

Common Handicapping Miscues - Many novice sports gamblers will bet on a game because a team's quarterback or point guard is out, thinking that they have some sort of advantage over the bookie. Great thinking, but this has already been factored into the point spread for the said event. Loot talks about other mistakes bettors make when trying to get one over on the bookie.

When Final Scores are Misleading - The only true way to gauge a game is by watching that game. At first glance, one team beating another by 2 or 3 touchdowns looks like a rout. What if the team that turned the ball over had three possessions where they were deep in the other team's red zone and gave up defensive touchdowns due to a fumble and a pair of interceptions? All the while, the other team never got past the other team's 50 yard line the whole game? Handicapping past matchups between teams is an astute variable that needs to be taken into consideration, but you need to look deeper to see the whole picture. Often times, the only way to get the full understanding is to actually watch the game.

Your wallet will thank you!

Money Management: How to Manage Your Betting Capital - Many people can pick winners long term.
