00:00what would be your advice on kind of which way to go when it comes to reading a board and

00:04understanding a board, or trying to just come up with your own opinion on what a game, what you

00:11should be taking in these games? Sure. So I'd say first and foremost,

00:15for most people realize if you're doing it for fun, or if you're actually doing it to try to

00:19make some money, because the way that you go from that is, is very different. And there's nothing

00:24wrong with either side. But it's it's very difficult to do it for fun, with the hopes of

00:29making money, because you're you're against up against it in a very tough spot. So figure that

00:34out. First of all, if you are going about it, and you're trying to make some money, and you're

00:38trying to take it more seriously, I would say really kind of determine, do you want to go the

00:44math direction? Or do you want to go the subjective direction? Which in other words, is, are you going

00:49to put together a lot of different power ratings from different sources, and try to figure out

00:54numbers that are right or wrong, or use different tools to find an edge? Or are you the type of

01:00person that loves to watch games, loves to follow players, loves to watch a lot of shows during the

01:06week to come up with opinions of your own. But Smiley, I would say between those two directions,

01:13the easiest way to go from someone who's just having fun, to taking it a little bit more

01:17seriously, whether you're on the subjective or the math side, would be start with first of all,

01:23what you know. If you follow a specific team or division, really specialize in that. And then try

01:30go as far into the board as you can. So maybe don't play the full game side or total. Maybe

01:36don't even play the first half side or total. Try go deep into props. Try go deep into derivatives

01:42and the first quarter, second quarter markets, in-play markets. Those are where you're more

01:47likely to find something really specific that you can take advantage of, because it's so competitive.

01:53In the markets that if you're just trying to take it a little more serious,

01:56you got to get really selective with what you do.
