That 78% of the people are probably right? I may be new around here, but I don't understand the theory of betting against popular opinion. I wish someone would explain it to me.

I figured it was something like Bay was hurt and not playing or something.

I could care less who else bets on it though. If more people agree then at least I'm not off my rocker, yet...

Doesnt really matter with ML bets, the whole card tonight is lopsided except 4 games tonight....Only 4 games tonight have less then 60% on the favorite's side...Its the totals that mean something when theyre bet hard....

Some will remember more occasions where the public was right and some will remember the wrong, I like to think that is 50/50..
Anybody has some kind of record that proves one or the other ?

It's The Old "Don't Bet Against The House"

adage. The basis of "Big Bookies" posts. It DOES have a certain validity, as we all know. But to use it as a hard and fast rule, like any other so called "lock", it's not always right. I never pay attn. to these %, I cap my gms, look for some feedback from respected cappers and let it fly. BOL to all here @ RX!!

Because the popular opinion is USUALLY wrong. Not all the time but the public couldn't pick their own ass if they wanted to. You will find that going against the majority CAN be profitable in the long run. BOL to you in the future.

If going against the majority didn't work, bigbookie wouldn't be getting thousands of views of his threads still. He gives you the opposite plays of his clients and he has a great record in mlb and nba. I no longer tail anybody I cap my own pics and the public % is a factor. I was with the public on the pirates yesterday but tonight I'm against them. Its on and off.

So, then the entire purpose of your thread is pointless, is that your point?

eventually, people will learn that going against the fictional public is a good way to lose a lot of money betting games one would normally steer clear from in the first place. clearly, the public knows how to pick straight up winners in baseball. it doesnt mean they are smart enough to manage their money and avoid turning 2-1 days into break-even or losing days. but then again, if anyone really thinks there is a significant public side in a game between the pirates and padres, well ....
