Prop
Bets
Prop Bets have gained tremendous popularity since online betting sites
have started offering them. Prop bets can be made on just about any
aspect of the game and they don't always rely on the outcome of the
game. Prop bets are particularly popular with fantasy players, who
can make prop bets on their players results.
Prop Bets - Winning
Prop bets are just like any other wager, if you know what your doing
and remain disciplined you can make a profit. Here's some homework
for you to improve your odds on picking more winners with prop bets.
-
Prop Bets, do the math - Every successful bettor knows about probabilities,
so should you. Take a look at the numbers and try to determine the
% of your desired outcome, then decide if the payoff is worth the risk.
e.g. If the prop bet is Terrell Owens will score a TD 3-1 and you think
TO has a 50% chance of scoring, make the bet.
-
Prop Bets, more than just an average - All sportsbooks post prop bets
based on season long averages, these are great bets for fantasy sharks.
All fantasy players know how quickly things can change during the season
and how sometimes minor injuries can have big impacts. Making prop
bets before the general public catches is easy money.
-
Prop Bets keep it Current - Apply new information quickly. Keep an
eye on the guys listed on NFL injury reports, particularly the game-time
decisions. Gameplans are often adjusted on these injuries and you can
pick up some juicy bets by acting accordingly. If you see a team de-activate
one of its top three corners, check the opposing QB for head to head
matchups, pass attempts and pass completions. You can be sure the offensive
coordinator will test the back ups with more pass attempts.
-
Prop Bets bread and butter - Always
check the point spread to see which teams are heavily favored. Sports
bettors have always known when
teams grab a big lead will try to kill the clock by running
the ball. Conversely, the opposing team will be throwing every down
in
an attempt to catch up. These are great games to consider prop
bets that deal with rushing, receiving and pass attempts.
Prop bets are fun, exciting and can be profitable too. Increase your
knowledge of probabilities, player matchups and gameplans and you will
have a big advantage when making prop bets.
