Heat -5 hosting Bulls

Analysis: Forget any zig-zag theories or faith in Derrick Rose. It’s not going to happen in Game 4 for Chicago. Not in Miami, not against a Heat team that not only has their confidence and swagger, but has at last found its identity.

The Heat are the only unbeaten home team in the playoffs. Their 7-0 post-season record includes a 4-0 ATS mark against Boston and Chicago. Miami won each of those games against the Celtics and Bulls by nine points or more.

It’s easy to point to LeBron James and Chris Bosh for much of the success against the Bulls. James had 10 assists and no turnovers in Game 3. He’s doing a great job of finding Bosh’s right spots. Bosh is averaging 24.6 points in the series on 66 percent shooting from the floor.

The Heat whipped the Bulls by 11 this past Sunday in Game 3 despite Dwayne Wade missing 11 of (Read full Article Here)

Despite the efforts of the US government to curtail gambling on the internet, millions of dollars are still being wagered each day on sporting events, poker and online casino’s. Estimates for the amount of money being wagered yearly on sporting events vary greatly but it is a common acceptance by all the estimators that it is in the Billions of dollars. Obviously the internet makes up a big part with its worldwide attraction and availability, but there are also the legal sports books in States like Nevada and some foreign countries that have legalized betting on sporting events.

What makes it difficult to get an accurate estimate is the number of “barber shop bookies” throughout the US and around the world. The illegal bookmakers it is estimated, makes up nearly 50% of all sport betting action annually. What draws the public to the “windows” to place wagers on sporting events….? Of course many are drawn by the thrill of having “something riding” on a game and almost always can watch the outcome on a TV broadcast.

Why do the Vegas Sports Books put a TV next to a game on their board? Because they know that more action will come in on a game that is being televised than ones that are not.
