A SECRET WAY FOR THE AVERAGE GAMBLER TO BEAT BOOKMAKERS! (by Sick Gambler)

"As I stated before, MIDDLING football is for LOSERS and you will eventually go BROKE trying to make a living doing it..."

Shrink, please add me to the loser list also... /infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

 

And good thread all around.

I don't think I'd middle on a 10 and 12, but the halftime middle was a sweet 8 pts last night - and it hit...these are generally the sorts of middles that I look for in foots...

Memphis+12 at bowmans
memphis 13-10 at half with Lou -7 for 2nd half
final 38-32 Lou

so 1% of BR on all the offlines ny the standards you laid out for each sport and i'm good?

 

[sidingman]

sometimes when the local is off 5-6 points i will put 300 on say for instance one side and then 500 on the side in your favor.this way you have chance to middle and also have 200 minus vig in your favor.hope this helps some

 

[MrLandau]

The opening total for a college game is 52..the line moves to 54 at most sportsbooks..one book has it at u55.5...another one(Pinnacle) has it at 53.5

What do you do?

 

I dont know if you are the guy that posts at MW or not, but I took ov 48 and under 54.5 at the same time on last nights game. Of course I sided it, so if it went over I would come out ahead...

I didn't try to middle this week but just took what I thought was the advantage with local book and got killed!! I bet four games with him and they all lost. He upped the lines on the pro games. He had Cinn.+8.5 instead of 5.5...Wash.+4.5 instead of +1...Cleveland...+10.5 instead of 7 and Seattle +6.5 instead of +3. Instead of trying to middle I loaded up on the four dogs figureing I was getting big value and would hit at least 3 out of 4. Instead I went 0-4!!! Any more advice? I need it now. Thanks.

 

curt,


I'm sorry to hear that. But you know the rule of gambling. You CANNOT judge it by 4 games If you go with such a short amount of games, you will lose your marbles. You should go by 1000 games. Hell, if you go by 4 games, then you would have thought Billy Walters is a big loser had you played his games 2 saturdays ago when he went 1-10 in 11 games.

BTW, how in the hell did you get those #'s? I'd be worried of getting paid with this bookie with #'s like that. How can anyone survive giving out #'s like this. You should not be worried in winning, but you should be worried in collecting your money when you do win.

 

[curt]

He has been in business for years and has always paid. I found out that just recently he got tired of always giving out the lines to everyone and decided it wwas easier for everyone to buy the paper. You never know week to week what lines he is going to up if any. Thanks sick.

First I would like to admit that I DIDN'T even read the thread by SG.

Second I would like to say the Sick is a liar and piece of crap and anyone who follows this losers advice is just going to go broke like Sick himself.

Don't pay much attention to sick's betting advice..its only 10% true.
I bet even He doesn't practice what He is preaching.

For all SIMPLISTIC purposese what he is saying he very accurrate and true today.

SHOPPING for the BEST LINES and spotting weak numbers is much, much more the reality in becoming a longterm winner than "handicapping".

Sure one can win consistantly just by handicapping and doing little shopping, but the cases are in the minority.

Whatever the case, one can certainly improve their bottom line GREATLY by simply shopping.

someone gave me this exact advice back in early feb. Betting college and pro hoops I had the greatest run of my life. I won over 65+units, hitting over 55% and it was simple. I had a winning day 75% of the time with ZERO handicapping involved. Lots of books, contant screen watching and a few more ticks and ANYONE could do it.

The one problem is I could not get the same results betting bases, just didn't seem to work and I looked for a bigger edge than SG said to have.

BY FAR the best piece of advice anyone could give a gambler was Sick Gamblers first post in this thread, it was dead on.

Different strokes for different folks. Since I basically do College Football ONLY, and the # of games overall is low, Capping and getting the best #s are close to being equal. I would, for me only, give capping the nod. I am also NOT a proponent of equal % on each play. I have an indicator that points me to the BIGGER plays and some might ridicule it. IT is what I call "The Hard Nipples and Goosebumps Predictor" When I first see a line and I get the HN&GB Predictor, I have had extraordinary success. Laugh if you want, but it works for me! Sort of like Alchemy of College Football. :money8: LT
