I usually only bet 9 point games. I look to see who actually belongs in that game and how they have been doing in the last 10 games played. I look for teams with strong back court players - steady players. The back court player handles most of the shots so I want to make sure it is someone who can catch. I like to put a couple of earlier teams with the 7 or 8 depending on who is playing in those late positions. I had some good luck. I box exactas and triples.
