How halftime bets work
The book posts a fresh line for the second half based on first-half play. Bets are settled on second-half scoring only.
When to bet halftime
If you have a read on how the game is unfolding (pace, momentum, key adjustments), the halftime line may be priced for the wrong factor. Halftime live betting is especially exploitable in basketball and college football.
