I do have a couple of questions, however. This is directly for GameHunter or any of the other educated people in here who can answer this for me.

1. I wrote down on Sunday night GameHunter's picks for Monday, April 5. By the time I went to make my bets Monday morning at my online book (to avoid the 20-cent nightime line), the lines had changed dramatically. For example, GameHunter got the Rockies at +118. By the time I went to bet it, the Rockies were at -105. So I stayed away. This happened in all games except for the Cubs and Rockies. So I bet those two only. And, of course, I lost.

So the question is: What's the maximum variation in the current betting line to GameHunter's original line? If it's only a nickel off, I'd bet it. But what if it's moved 20 cents? Or 30 cents? When would I get off of it because I've lost too much value? Also, does it matter which way the line has moved -- in favor of the public or a reverse-line move?

Sorry, that was more than one question, but I'd really appreciate hearing some educated responses to this.

2. A much quicker question: I always have preferred to make my bets the same size. How important does GameHunter or (educated) others consider making different-sized unit bets? Obviously, he feels there's value or else he wouldn't post them. I suppose my question, which may not even be able to be answered, is: Would I still be successful simply making one-unit bets instead of, say. 1.25, etc? Or perhaps I'll be the guinea pig and we'll all find out together?

I appreciate any and all responses to this very long post.

Peace and best of luck at the books!
