WEEKLY NEWS LETTERS FOR SPORTS PICKS

Are weekly news letters a good resource for sports picks ?

I do not believe that weekly newsletters are a valid resource for picking games. The newsletters are a marketing tool to promote picks in different categories. For example, some of these newsletters will promote their picks in the following manner, 5 stars, 4 stars, dog of the week, total of the week etc. Now lets say their 4 star picks go 2-0. All they will promote is the winning catagory. No mention of the losers. This is a form of marketing, not handdicapping. These newsletters are done by marketing people not handicappers. They are usually printed on Sunday or Monday for Tuesday delivery. Having picks this far ahead of time is bad info because many things can happen to change a point spread in four days.

HOW ARE YOUR STATS

How accurate are the stats you use to pick your games.

I know there many different sources people use to get handicapping info. People use the web, newsletters, and news papers.

    Beware , many stats may not be accurate

I handicapp using stats I calculate myself. Then I double check with another person. Many people get info from invalid sources. Use multiple resources to get accurate stats. Take more than one source and double check the lines and compare them. This will help you be more organized identifying descrepancies so you get the best possible line info. to help you WIN

SPORTS TEAMS SLUMPS

mets

I just watched the Mets lose again and after 135 games are now in 2nd place.

My sports service, since Sunday, are down 4.05 units. Ladies and gentlemen, the Mets and I are in a slump. Unlike the Mets, we can lose Saturday and Sunday and not have our season come to a end. Everybody in life, if its sports betting or playing professional sports, suffer losing streaks. How you handle them is what makes you a winner or loser

.

We are not going to chase our losses or press the situation. We are going to do the same things we have done over numerous amount of years that have made us profitable investing in sports gambling.

As you can see we will always be upfront, win or lose, and that is one reason we are different than anybody else in this industry.

So when you are losing, take it like a professional, don’t go crazy and try to make it all up at once, and be cofident that you will get back your losses over time. Money management is the key ingredient in sports gambling.

And remeber this “ Sports gambling is a marathon not a sprint”.

CHECK UPDATED LINES

Before placing any bets always check updated lines by going to either

skybook.com or betcascade.com. All you have to do is hit live lines and check

your game(s). This will help determine if the lines you are quoted are accurate.

Always have at least 2 sources to place bets at.

SPORTS BETTING SERVICE PICKS

Be carefull the service picks your getting still have value and are not recycled. You want to check the opening line on your games to make sure the line is not recycled. Make sure when you recieve your service play, the number you play at is the same or better than the opening line. The best way is to go to Donbest look at the opening line on the game your wagering. To often too many people get on one game the spread goes up and down and the game is devalued.
