Wow this is a crazy thread, do you mainly look for hoping on women’s favorites in trouble and believe live ML’s pay more than minus points even up? Are you looking at live metrics like poor shooting shooting %?
Are the live women’s algorithm lines softer?
And do you do a little drinking as u go?
You raise some interesting points.
I believe only about 6% of my 182+ posted bets have been during LIVE ACTION. In most cases it is where I had capped a pick that was strong to win SU but the line was too risky, either ATS or ML, but esp ML. So I keep that side circled and monitor the game - particularly the opening few mins when either team may go on a run to open up a lead. I find that road dogs often go on an early run to a lead almost as often as home favs do.... at which point I can jump on that fav at a much cheaper price than pregame. Or if not then, usually at some point later in the game. The fav's price drops considerably during the game when the score is tied or a single possession behind the dog, and yet that is routinely overcome by a strong HOME FAV in the final Q of a game - or in many cases - the final 3 minutes!
Yes, what I am monitoring via ESPN game page in the boxscores are
- the FOULS situations!!! (which star is in danger and likely to sit or foul out!),
- who is dominating the glass (if either)
- shooting% and shooting volumes,
- bonus in effect yet?!? and which teams are deadly or weak at the charity stripe,
- and if the teams are solid at hitting from the arc (during that game)
There are a lot of moving parts and it takes practice, kinda like a golf swing, but now I can scan a boxscore quickly and know if a team is in a favorable position (or not!) to pull ahead and get the win, or if it is in jeopardy of a coin-flipper. More often than not I just pass and lose nothing doing so. But occasionally a great opportunity jumps out. Last year I made $4k on a single game which went into OT. I had passed on the game as a toss up earlier. But entering OT the HOME FAVS had just fouled out their top scorer in the final minute of regulation , with their other two TOP scoring starters with 4 fouls each - and they had a weakass bench!! Surprisingly, the line on the home favs didn't budge!! I jumped all over that one on the dogs - those 2 "fav" starters fouled out as expected - and I won easily!
As for ATS or ML, I prefer ML as I cap the games toward a probability to win or lose SU. I will take dogs on the spread but not ML.
In women's games the ML value is actually worse than mens in most cases. But for some reason there are far fewer major upsets in women's games than mens. Not sure why. Womens teams who are favored by 2 possessions and up seem to win at a higher rate than mens although covering a spread is iffy. So I prefer the ML on favs, particularly home favs, in both men and womens.
Ha, no I don't drink at all when capping/betting.....leads to dumbass decisions. I do however eat small portions almost every hour along with brief blood-pumping exercise 
to keep my energy levels elevated and clear-headed. Works for me...
BoL to you with your bets today and going forward 
Ok thanks but it still sounds like you are Mai Ky jumping in live ML like yesterday after a women’s favorite got down.. that’s fine, probably very effective But if we’re following, we need to watch closely and i don’t think we can get notifications on this site. Sorry, got too much family!
Thanks for your work
Yeah, I see your point.....it would be very difficult for most to follow anyone's picks on those occasional games he bets during LIVE action (except perhaps a few halftimes) Most here work for a living and have a family, etc. I'm fortunate enough to be retired now so I have the time to not only cap TWO huge leagues (mens and womens) but also to score-watch and look for more opportunities. Many here, like you, just can't do that - or certainly not consistently.
But even so, anyone with the time during games can develop the wherewithall to spot the HOT opportunities in live action. I don't just bet on any fav that is down in score. It has to be a team that I had previously capped to be very strong to win outright - but the heavy ML prevented me from taking the large risk earlier.......Once your SOLID FAV gets down a little, the new much lower ML can be a GOOD opportunity for any sports-better to diy.....provided other game conditions are also favorable as noted above.
GL with your bets 
Tuesday, March 7, WOMENS;
LIVE bet @HT.....Vastly superior Jaspers down by 3 to winless Peacocks.
They lead by 7 after 1Q, but went cold in 2Q. Winless Peacocks unlikely to sustain that though....Boxscores look OK for a comeback as they are not playing badly, just that Peacocks got hot shooting which is unusual for them.
I expect a robust comeback: JASPERS -300 to win game *BEST BET
Of course, anything can happen in sports, often bucking probability.......upsets do occur frequently at this time of year but very rare for a winless 0 -20 team to upset a 10 - 10 team which is 10 full games margin better......very rare......but I'm ok if it happens....I will be relaoding bets if/when the ML on Jaspers get down into the sub-180 territory with at least 8 mins left or more.......would still be plenty of time to comeback even if down say 8 pts....
oooBOY! 
Jaspers NOT lighting it up in 3Q as one might expect they would..... uh-oh....down 6 now....
The 10 - 10 Jaspers are now down 2 possessions with 2.5 mins to play and they have possession but they have gone totally COLD! ......either missing shots or turning it over nearly every time they have it......against an 0 - 20 winless team....
NCAA hoops YTD: 121 - 57
My *BEST BETS in NCAA MENS remains 57 - 23 ... so far
MARCH 08, MENS:
WAKE -145 (overnight line @Bet365)
This one could be another #$%&! nailbiter as my usual metrics are ambivalent here, so I'm leaning more on a hunch than usual
Thank you
BoL with your bets Wednesday!
Was considering Panthers on first glance but the Yellow Jackets are hot and waiting to jump at an upset
