    Default If You Just Bet Pro Sports........You Will See Improvement

    In your bankroll

    1. Greatly reduces the amount of bets you place
    2. Greatly reduces ground you need to cover as far as capping which in turn will make you concentrate more and you will know much more about the teams, players,injuries trends, etc to make better decisions. Its a lot easier with approx 7 nba games going per night and a few hockey games, baseball season easy...NFL

    Betting all sports is flat out silly and a sign you have a disease as there is zero way to bet all the sports going on at same time and keep up with everything.

    We make too many poor decisions

    JJ, I agree that it is smart to focus on a certain sport/league you think you are good in but wouldnīt you agree that the spreads are much harder to beat in professional sports compared to some smaller NCAA conference? I am sure the oddsmakers pay less attention to these since much less bets/money will be placed on these leagues/games...

    Focus: yes, but not on pro sports...thats what I would say...agree?

    Sounds like someone is getting buried in NCAAB.

    If you focus on the added college game card from the small conferences and the North American soccer leagues South of the Rio Grande you can turn a nice profit before MLB starts
    NBA or "Big" school NCAA will bury you long term

    JJ, the formula is edge * volume = net profit therefore we don't want to limit bets we want to bet the fukin board.

    Actually the smaller the league the bigger opportunities if you have the right informants/contacts. That is why you see high limits on nba, nfl, mlb and so on while if you bet Turkish soccer div.3 you might have trouble betting the amount you'd like.

    Don't ever bet NCAAB. The lines set by Vegas aren't sharp and no team wins there consistently. Teams giving 10 points lose straight up frequently. I don't see any cappers successful there for a year. For pro sports the variance kick in longer. NCAAB is like anyhow, any result will show up.

    Its true but u aren't making it big in small leagues due to the low limits. You'll rather have informants for big leagues where the bet limit is $1M for top books.

    They don't bother to re-fix the game even if u put 100,000 on a big league team because there is so much money in the other team globally. Real informants in big leagues provide safer tip-offs due to this reason. The purpose for them to fix big leagues is to destroy squares.

    Betting on NCAA hoops is so ridiculously easy though. When you know when to pick the home underdog, which is very easy a great majority of the time, it's free money. Home court is BIG for college hoops in the right setting.. IE- South Florida over Pitt was so easy yesterday. Line not moving from -3 even though 95% of the ML and 95% of the total bets were on Pitt.. and also showing 85% of the money was on pitt at that line against a great home team and line refusing to move... are you fukking kidding me ?

    South Florida led the entire game and dominated play. It was never close.

    Why in the world would you avoid college hoops ?

    Different people are good in different sports. I have seen lot of soft lines in early part of NCAAB season. You cant just say bet pro-sports. If there a +EV play in soccer, you have to bet it.

    Hogwash... choose Teams by flipping a coin; Heads = Home , Tails = Visitor. Then use the Reverse Labouchere (111111)
