Thanks for the rip....aren't you adding context (aka jibberish) when you complain about others adding comments.  I recently started following The Thinker and his approach.  I wanted to add some support related to the thinkers post (just like every other thread on this site) related to his picks and the information he is sharing.  Just trying to be supportive.  Try it some time

on islanders and anaheim, bulls and houston. 

Love the thread.   Very interesting approach.  please keep it going

going to avoid colorado and dallas picks

Thanks for the questions....

After further review of my betting practices:

I was 172-123 (58% winners) on straight-up bets (various odds but majority between -110 and -150) across NHL/NBA/football

Then 26-36 (42% winners) on teasers and parlays where I would bet more money to try and win more money....college/pro football.

Straight bets from here on out!!!!

Thanks so much again for the insight

Thank you everyone for the advice

I checked my account online and then counted wins/losses/ties.  I was surprised I wasn't further ahead with the 201 - 156 - 5 record.

I need to go check teasers verus straight up to figure this out.

Can you clarify how to bet with "units" versus dollars?

Thanks so much

Great advice.....I've been using a mix of teasers and straight betting either against O/U or ML or pts.

I try to win 1 unit with each bet...is this correct or should I bet same units...the odds for the game messes with my units calculation.

Not all bets are at -110 (ranges widely)

I was using too many teasers.

Thanks so much

Good advice!! I've created a systems that shortens the evaluation time for capping games. I need to be more critical of the number of picks

Thanks, very true...I was teasing football too much.  I've since stopped and am starting to make money sticking with straight betting.  I'd loose alot on Saturday/Sunday then make it up during week on Hockey/NBA

I'm 201-156-5 for the month of November. 57% winning percentage yet barely profitable.

Any suggestions on how to better manage my bets and bet amounts?

I follow these posts and see how others make money, but I struggle staying ahead even with a decent winning %
