Every card below is a suggested play with the bet, the odds, how many units to put on it and why. Units come from the Unit sizer in the toolbox.

Chance it hits-

Chance is based on the books' implied odds, which include their cut, so the true chance is a little lower.

How to read a pick

Spread (Wisconsin +2.5)

The team getting points (+) can lose by less than that number and still win your bet. The team giving points (-) has to win by more than the number.

Moneyline (+150 or -150)

Just pick the winner. +150 means a $100 bet wins $150. -150 means you bet $150 to win $100.

Total, or over/under (Over 56.5)

A bet on the combined score of both teams. Over 56.5 wins if they score 57 or more together.

Units (1 unit, 0.5 units)

A unit is your normal bet size, usually 1 to 2 percent of the money you set aside for betting. The Unit sizer in the toolbox works it out. Bigger confidence gets more units.

Parlay

Several bets combined into one. It pays more, but every leg has to win, so it hits much less often.

Prediction market price (34¢)

On Kalshi and Polymarket you buy YES or NO on a question. A 34¢ share pays $1 if you're right, so the price is roughly the market's chance it happens.

Push

A tie with the line, like a team winning by exactly the spread. You get your money back.

Bet smart

Set a bankrollOnly bet money you set aside for it, never rent, bills or money you need.
Keep units steadyDon't double up to win back a loss. Chasing is how bankrolls disappear.
No bet is a sure thingEven the best bet of the day loses often. Judge picks over weeks, not one day.
Take a breakIf it stops being fun, stop. Every sportsbook lets you set limits or take a time-out.
