Do you handicap games or follow?

Tommy · 06-03-06, 04:28 PM

I was wondering who handicaps games here, who follows other people or who just bets blindly?

If you do handicap games then what is your most important criteria in your handicapping? How long do you normally handicap a day? How many days out of the week do you bet?

Thanks...

I handicap much more than I follow....though i'm not opposed to hopping on a hot capper..............But overall i do best when i take my own advice

handicap nba/wnba follow in every other sport...I don't spend much time actually handicapping I would say about 95% line searching 5% handicapping...it helps to know all the nba team's very well though

naught33 · 06-05-06, 08:24 PM

ha85 i agree w you wholeheartedly...most of the time is spent finding the best lines....if you have a good working knowledge of the sports/teams ur betting the capping doesnt take long at all its just finding the best price

Well, I have some some friends which opinion too important for me. As usually I'm ask opinion of my French friend before betting French League or opinion of my Greek friend before betting Greece etc. I think I did 40% absolutely personal decisions this seasons and 60% after discusiions on-line.

I cap games everyday. One day I see something and some days I don't see anything I like. I take different things into account when betting any team.
