Hi and welcome to sports betting tips video series by SportsTrade. I’m Allie and I’m the spokesperson for this video series. In today video, we are interested in discussing total line sports betting tips. What does the word total line mean in sports betting? And how can you use the strategy to win subsequent betting?
First, the total line bet system is a single wager on whether or not the combined goal/point/run of a game will be over or under the figure set by the oddsmaker before the event. In the process of placing a total line wager, the bettor is mostly concerned with the combined record of each team at the end of the game. A total line bet is arguably one of the simplest bets to make in all sports because it allows you to bet on a game or match without necessarily bothering about the winner or loser. So, basically, it is a fair and viable betting tip for someone who can predict the flow of a game well.
Since the only thing that matters in this is the cumulative number in the designated category, you can use total line bets to win handsomely. In essence, it helps you bet for or against both teams effectively. It also allows for a great deal of betting flexibility, among others. Talking about line movement, the sportsbook's entire goal is to get the right amount of money bet on both sides and take a small percentage off the top for their profit.
That way, they use the losing side to pay off the winners and get a take-home profit regardless. Meanwhile, the sportsbook can achieve money on both sides of a totals bet by adjusting the totals number to strive and achieve their goal rather than adjusting the payouts to either discourage or encourage action. So, if you can bet at the right time, you will win, especially if you can wait and let the line move to get a more favorable outcome. Watch out for the times when the lines move, particularly as a result of the public betting. Take advantage of such situations!

We're concerned about problem gambling. For most people, gambling is entertainment - a fun activity that can be enjoyed without harmful effect. But for some, it's not just a game - it's a serious problem that continues even after the fun has gone.
Compulsive gambling is not easily detected. The person with a gambling problem will often go to great lengths to cover up the problem and will appear to look all right, regardless of the consequences of their gambling.
Warning Signs. Some of the indicators that a person may be suffering from a gambling problem include:
Losing time from work or family due to gambling.
Repeated failed attempts to stop or control gambling.
Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts.
Gambling to escape worry or trouble.
Neglecting the care of one's self or family in order to gamble.
Lying about the amount of time and money spent on gambling.
Gambling more money in an attempt to win back losses.
Selling or pawning personal possessions to get money to gamble.
Feelings of hopelessness, depression, or suicide as a result of gambling.
