Well my betting is more small change stuff. If I risk a 100 I get a 1000 yes. That is a good return. But if I only go 3/4 I get nothing. Tickets payout like this 4 pick minimum pays 10 for every dollar. 5 - 15, 6 - 25, 7 - 50, 8 - 75, 9-100
People rarely if ever make more than 7 picks. Most only make 4. Betting on the spread is not easy.
Last week I did 8 preliminary picks that I liked then chose the best 4. I was tempted to play all 8. Wish I had. They were all correct. I won 50, could have won. 375. Great payoff for 5 bucks.
