3 straight winning seasons. 3 straight bowl winning seasons. 3 straight National Title Game Hits. Hitting a tad over 60% over 300+ plays. 11-1 on BCS Bowl Games the past 3 years.
Let my track record be a lesson for you guys that like to play a card with 20 games on it and have action going on all over the place: the more plays you play, the less of an edge you have. The less plays you play, and the more selective you are, the more of an edge you have. As my # of plays have increased over the years, my win % has gone down. Ask yourself are you in this to make money, or are you addicted to gambling?
I post my track record for the newbies that may be distracted by big bold fonts, 100 unit plays, and ridiculous Playstation systems. For those that have never seen my thread before, my picks aren't the fanciest, I don't tout my picks and hype them up, and I don't have many weeks where I go 6-0 and sweep the board. I do post my plays with analysis and why I picked a particular side. But at the end of the year, if the track record is any indication, you will win money - and a lot of it.
Notes on how I PLAY, not how the book tells you to play:
--A * denotes # of UNITS and strength of a play
--A UNIT is a percentage of your bankroll. Hence, a 3* play I put 3% of my bankroll on that one play. i.e. If you start the season with a $1,000, you would put $30 on one play. I play roughly 5 plays per week, and may have as much as 15-20% of my bankroll at risk on any given week. This is a long season and I will have at least 2 weeks of disaster - like any gambler. It's only a matter of time before those bad weeks happen if you play every week. I never have more than 20-30% of my bankroll at risk, ever. Majority of my plays stay between 2-3*. If I am kicking ass halfway through the year, I will slightly increase my unit amount as I get better as the year goes on, and especially during bowl season.
1* Small play
2* Standard Play - This is a typical play size for me.
3* Strong standard Play
4* Strong Play
5* Very strong play with a lot of things in my favor
5*+ I've got a lot of my favorite, "can't miss" angles in my favor and I am unloading because percentages are heavily in my favor.
Good luck this season
