replied to How to Create Steady Monthly Income from Betting on Sports in NFL Betting Quote Originally Posted by SportsMavin: So, how do I do it? How did I do it? I started with 2000$ bankroll and knew I had to be very careful with that bankroll as I had more or less 20 plays in me playing straight bets of 100% per unit and even less playing the odds to get 100$ as a winning unit. I decided in the beginning to do it playing straight bets. So, I will do the same here again. I have week days graded by their characteristics and the action. Mondays are NBA plays with underdog's having the clear edge. MNF is a public fade and usually under day. Not always. But most will do. Tuesdays are a regular handicapping day in NBA as is Wednesday and Thursday is a totally different story. NBA has usually 3 games offered on that day and fading the public is a root from which I develop my handicapping. It is usually Under day as well as Underdog day mostly. Fridays are back to normal handicapping day and Saturday has usually College Football (not anymore) and NBA action that Unders and Underdogs have to be looked at as a root. Sunday is the best days as NFL kicks in and some NBA plays as well always made me a profit. So, the first thing I do is eliminating the games I don't touch. I do that after checking the matchups on Covers, read the previews, interviews, look at the notes I took in past games of the teams and checking ATS columns. If Totals play attracts my attention - I check on the officials to see if there are any trends holding (MLB and NBA). I mark the opening lines and never look back at the games I did not like in the beginning (call it a gut feeling if you want). For an example: I didn't like any plays today in NBA. Any! Not the totals nor the spreads. I did lean on Under in College Football, but after the line dropped 3 points - I decided to stay away. Days that I don't like any plays happen once in a while and that's no big deal for me as I try not to be impulsive gambler but the one who is playing the games he believes in them without a doubt. Smallest of the doubts - I'm out. If you want to make the money on a permanent bases in sports handicapping - that is the only way. Again - the bet you didn't lose is as good as the bet you won. Judging by your post, you have a tendency to take unders where the public is pounding the over. I personally play more O/U in MLB. I find Texas Rangers home unders (inflated totals) and CWS overs (Little league ballpark) in June and July to be profitable, are there any "day of the week trends" that you notice along this line? Like perhaps unders on a sunday matinee game? I found it interesting that you could peg such trends, and I wonder what you are basing this on, cuz it sounds mostly like a fade of the public, Oh and thx for this post, it is great info!

replied to MY NEW MEXICO BOWL WINNER(TOP PLAY) in College Football Strength of schedule favors AZ significantly in this one too, besides, Nevada couldn't even beat a quality opponent in their conference. Can they keep it close here....sure, but I prefer a battle tested squad in AZ used to playing against better athletes all year long.

replied to BCS? WHAT A JOKE in College Football FIrst of all, the loss at Iowa does not tell the tape on this team as it was Lynch's first start. He has improved immensely each week since. Your analysis of a 60 point blowout couldnt be more wrong (as there was no analysis) I see NIU covering the two touchdown spread and keeping this close as they will play with fire.
