stardove, from my perspective and i learned this the hard way, do not pay ANYONE for picks. Remember this is gambling, at the end of the day any one of is just guessing. You can say you have all the metrics in the world, but in sports anything can happen...look at the UCONN women...they were huge favorites and LOST. If you want to tail someone for free that shows they have a decent record that's up to you. But save your money. If I'm going to lose a bet, I'd rather lose without the extra loss of having paid someone for their shitty pick. I used two different services that claimed they were the garbage and i lost count how many times they gave me picks to give up the points, in football and basketball, and the team lost outright! Even better still, just do your own research and make a decision. Like for me, I watched SoCar and Oregon the last week and said to myself they are both going to keep it close and cover, so I took them both and look...i hit em both. If they had lost at least I didn't pay someone to tell me what to do.

Most people selling picks probably aren't successful enough to not have to sell picks for a living.

If your losing more money than you can afford then you need to learn money management before you get yourself into trouble.

There is no substitution for experience and diligent research in this game.

I totally get what your saying. But I do not have time or skills to cap my own game. I'm just betting everyday because I'm addicted to gambling action.. My goal is not to win money but to break even while betting everyday.

I can tell ya one thing, there are cappers on here that are 3x better then anyone you will pay for. Most of those guys who claim to have inside information are delusional. GL with the picks but in all honesty...I would trust these guys a lot more than someone who may be working for vegas.

I agree. And you are one of few cappers I always try to tail! Today I will tray again 1more time the paid pick since they gave me 1 more free pick for the loss.

Thanks for the pick . Will be interesting to see how all these picks play out in comparison to covers plays.

This is a bad bet and let me tell you why...

Toronto is on the bubble to make the playoffs for the 2nd time in 11 years while Buffalo has no chance.  

Toronto has won 7 out of their last 10 games to get in contention carrying significant amounts of motivation and momentum. 

Coach Babcock has got these kids firing on all cylinders with arguably the best rookie in the NHL ( Austin Matthews ) and himself looking at Coach of the Year along with Torts in Columbus.  

Two additional angles.  

Toronto's remaining games are tough.  They have a back to back in DC tomorrow against the Caps followed by Tampa, Pittsburgh and Columbus.  They want this game in Buffalo tonight BADLY. 

Revenge Factor...Toronto lost to Buffalo 5 games ago.  

Buffalo finishes up with Montreal then its last two games with their feet in the sand in Florida.  They have little to play for. 

I very well could be wrong , however,  I don't come on here often to post but when I do......

 Everything you say is true. While I'm not allowed to say the reason behind my paid pick, they did tell me everything you stated. But, still gave me convincing reason for the Sables

Forget those ham and eggers.  Follow people here and you should do ok. If you do pay them make it minimal and force them to give you something of a guarantee. they give you losing streak then they should give you a break.

I'm sure they've cited Toronto's poor record playing in Buffalo as validity for their pick.  

While trends can be your friend during the regular season they typically come to an end at playoff time when the losing side of the delta is vying for a playoff spot and the winning side of the trend isnt.  

As Boston Eagle indicates...hopefully your paid selection is guaranteed and you dont pay if it loses. 

In good faith.....Best of Luck to All.
