Default Sports betting groups?

I was reading Super system 2.... shitty book by the way... and it was talking about how Steve Zolotow was in a sports betting group.

How come some people on here dont make one? It can be the New World Order of the betting world.

lol. That's pretty funny with the smilies. All joking aside though, there are a lot of really good cappers here. With the right leadership, like maybe an onlooker or a coach? We could pull it off.

The problem with groups is agreeing, organizing and trusting.

The only advantage to group betting is manuerving lines because of buying power you have with the group. It is a business partnership ony with no legal contracts, ect.

I would foget it.

Correct. There are people on this site who are part of groups/syndicates, but they don't advertise. That is how you lose your privileges. AND...

you don't get invited because you said "well i think it will be cold and wet in Green Bay and so the total will go under!"

OR,

because you know more abt zit cream than anybody else

The uncanny similarity to the way JJ looks in his videos is purely a coincidence, I assume.

If you think Super System is a shitty book you either
a) don't like poker
b) don't like reading how to become a better poker player
c) can't read

That is the bible of any real poker player (actually the first super system is).

If you need a shitty book get Play poker like the pros by the whiny little baby Phil Hellmuth.

Now to answer your question sports betting groups do exist, but they are kept very low key since it can cause problems for the players with most books.

Umm... Theory of Poker is the "Bible" of poker players. Super System 2 is an overview of how to play basic games and is very useful despite most of the material being rather dated.

The first Super System is even more chock full of useless information, which is part of the reason why the updated it.
