A BIG THANK YOU to all who have served in the Military! I will go out to Veteran's Memorial Cemetery in Boulder City this week to say Good bye again to my Father in Law who passed 4 years ago.
With a big Memorial Day Weekend of action I thought I would pass on some thoughts on things to help you increase your chances to win with your handicapper(s) of choice:
1. Get as many outs as possible.
A great 'shortcut' here is to get a 5dimes.com account with their reduced vig offerings. Yes, the limits are low, but in many cases 5dimes has the best number on BOTH sides of a game with this option.
2. Get the best value you can. Buy the bulk dollars promos, where you get discounts of up to 50%, and on rare occasions even higher. Also, look to buy a select handicapper for a season where the cost goes way down per pick. Why pay $25 for a play if you can pay $12.50? Or $8 on average!
3. Don't buy picks if you are betting low. I KNOW I will catch flack for this one, but you aren't going to be able to win paying $15, then Betting $40 on three selections. By the time you add in the extra vig of the purchase, it is really really hard to turn a profit.
4. Try to buy picks as soon as they are released. The strongest handicappers are going to release plays that more often than not move, and it is so much easier playing a game -2.5-110 vs. -3-120.
5. If you are a modest bettor, try to build up a bankroll playing lower, but taking advantage of the great free content, and free picks on this site. Get the Shaker Free Alternative Play. Buy the $1 handicapper on Thursday, take a shot with SleepyJ for $6 on occasion. Look at ALL the Capper free plays. Make bets on games you agree with. Build the bankroll and get to the point where you are comfortable betting more and can invest more in premium picks.
6. NETWORK with all of us as much as you can. Each Capper has strength and weaknesses, dittto for the posters. The more you can be part of the community, the better you will likely do. Ideally find some posters/friends you can work with and share information with. I find the best Cappers often do just this, two solid minds are better than one.
On the handicapping front, it's a BIG day for me, as I FIRE on a 3* NBA side, and a 2* NBA total, along with a 1* MLB play, and possible MLB props later. 51-27 on Fri/Sat/Sun Weekend plays I am looking to continue that great run.
