    He went on CNBC to give himself some sort of credibility; that was a short topic of debate here actually whether or not we want him shooting off his mouth making online gambling a political issue. Anyways, my 2 cents: I like what SBR is doing here in some cases with donation groups to organizations like St. Judes and the Humane Society.

    Anyways, VR is talking about line movements. I would estimate that 20-25% of his opinions/picks are trend/system/sports based, and the rest of it line movement meaning how the betting market is moving. Steam refers to a linear movement which many times appears to indicate that the linesmakers got it wrong. That would be "True Steam." Of course, a steam line roll may just be the result of a blind chain reaction. If "wiseguys" think they've spotted a value line or a false steam move they'll hit the other side. It is a game of cat and mouse, and the guy who is going to win will either be the one following this with inside info or the guy who knows the game he is capping.

    2* bets are his lower rated plays and 5* are his best.
