If you are on the fence and are just lookin for the action, book half and lay the other half off.

Ok I guess I am a bookie for this guy through the Nit and Ncaa tourny...
He made 3 bets today and clearly I still have time to lay them off, what do you guys think? I gave him a $1000 a week limit, and do have the option to call anything in... This is what he took tonight, opinions?

William and Mary plus 8, $200
Winthrop minus 3, $50
Jackson State plus 22, $100

If your gonna book the plays, just bookem all. If you try to decide which to keep and which to layoff you will get killed. March Madness is when many gamblers just get absolutely ruined.. GL KP

I couldn't name one player on any NCAA team so discussing the games isn't an option. But if you are going to lay off games do it strictly based on financials and where you want the money to be placed. Ignore any thoughts you have of where you think you can beat the guy who is placing bets with you. If you manage it properly and with the vig, you should be OK.

Yea, but only taking 1 dudes bets could be disaster. What if he gets hot and theres no one else to fall back on? I wanna discuss the games he likes then decide if I should call them in or eat them... I GUESS ALL THAT MATTERS TONIGHT IS UNC, HES LAYING 220/200 IF HE DROPS THAT GAME HE CAN WIN THE OTHER 2 AND BE DOWN..... DISCUSS

Take the action on UNC. W&M could beat them straight up. I don't get this line at all.

Sorry, read that backwards. I still think you should book his bets though overall.
