For a bet spread of 1-8 units, the player should bet 1 unit at a true count of +1, 2 units at +2, 4 units at +3 and 8 units at +4 or higher. A pick’em occurs when the sportsbooks have determined that the two teams are equal and thus no spread is required. In these situations, the spread doesn’t exist and instead, both sides will have equal moneylines, usually offered at -110. The “juice” is an informal term given for the vigorish when gambling.
