Default How much Chalk?

What is the highest chalk you would lay for a single game?

I try not to go above -160...if I like a team that is higher than that I try to take the runline....I know most people have -150 as a limit and some will up to -300...what about you Frank?

It really depends on the game and the situation the teams are in but I won't go over -170. I know thats a lot but I rarely will pick a team over -150. If you look at other games you can get better value most of the time.

If I like the game Ilike the game the thing I change is how much I risk.

Will lay -160 to win 100 anything above that I cut in half

example -180 I am going to bet 90 to win 50.
