The line on the second half.Is that for the entire game or from the score at half time.

Its for the score at halftime.

example

KINGS/CLEV Game opens at KINGS +2.

currentLY the KINGS lead the CAVS by 21 points:

2nd half line is CLEVE -5 1/5

YOU BET IT AND CLEVELAND CAN LOSE THE GAME BY 15 POINTS AND YOU COVER THE BET......OVERTIME included if necessary.

These are sometimes good bets as just simple math gives you what some call "value" in the line. In this case Cleve needed to win by 3 if you took them. They are DOWN 21.....2nd half line is -5 1/2. Cleveland no longer must win the game by 3 but MERELY LOSE the game by 15 to win the 2nd half.

HOWEVER YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BE AWARE HOW TEAMS ARE PLAYING IN ANY PARTICULAR GAME. THE CAVS BLOW CHUNKS TONIGHT and should with the crushing overtime loss last night.

I have a big bet on SAC +2 FOR THE GAME but put in a tiny amount on Cleve 2nd half to "get greedy".....BUT THIS TIME IT IS NOT AS GOOD AS A POSTED 2ND HALF BET.

TOTALS ALSO INCLUDE OVERTIME!

HOPE THIS HELPS.........GOLDV
