WNBA Interview with Right Angle Sports

[SBRPicks]

With the WNBA season getting underway, Craig from well-known WNBA picks service Right Angle Sports called into the SBR.tv studios to do a phone Q&A with SBR.tv's Peter Loshak. Craig was shy about revealing valuable specifics, but he answered a few general questions about the method behind the magic at RAS.

[Extra Innings]

Interesting Interview. Thank You!

Great video, Peter. Would like to see more WNBA covered.

[SexyMit]

Explain to me how he is the best service for the WNBA when he lost units last yr? Had a 46-42 record minus almost 3 units. Just curious how you guys came up with that, and how he thinks he is the best? Thanks

If you bet their 2ndH plays also, you would be well into +Units last year.

So their service as a whole was profitable, but full game wagers alone were not.

[toastedbread01]

I would rather lose on my own hitting 50% and paying vig, then paying someone else to lose for me. What a joke.

RAS rarely loses over the course of a season

Do you work for them? The website looks like a giant billboard.

If WNBA is so illiquid as they claim, any recommended picks would significantly move the lines to the point that those plays may become unplayable.

[RoagBettor]

The only magical thing I see is how you can lose units for the full season and then double the price of your package next season.

That's good Brock... A win is a win. The winning ticket still brings back CASH!!

They aren't starting off to good again this year already. For their sake, they better start picking some winners.

Impossible to cap at this point. Too much turnover, trades, INJ's.

Plus the contraction of the WNBA, with the Monarchs folding, has also affected rosters.

Hell the average WNBA roster has at least 6 new players.

[Brock Landers]

WNBA is like a turd in the punchbowl. They need to just quit trying to be real and go play for fun, these broads can earn more betting on the games than in salary, something is wrong

They make plenty of money playing overseas. Womens B-Ball is taken much more serious in Europe.

And if you are the best in the world like Diana Taurasi, you get paid 1million a year to play overseas for the best team in the world.

Really... Impossible to cap?? Cause I have started the season off with a bang, I personally have only lost 1 wnba game. So it can't be to impossible if you know what your doing. If you do your homework, it is the easiest money making sport around.

Yep most of the Stars for every team don't even play in the preseason only the Scrubs. If you keep up with preseason you get a feel for the teams and their 2nd team offense and defense. That will tell you everything you need to know on how to cap WNBA. And which 2nd team offenses can score and defend. Just take the Over in the 1st couple of NY Liberty games and you will be ok, they are the new Phoenix Mercury of last yr. You would automatically take the over in EVERY Phoenix game last yr and you would have won money, do the same with the Liberty this year.

Please go away tout.

[SexyMit]

Please go away tout.

I'm here just like every other tout. Not selling anything just asking questions and giving pointers just like everyone else. I know your in love with me and love following me around, but I have enough stalkers I don't need anymore. But thanks for wanting to be one also.

I was just asking how he is the best in the business with a negative record last year.. It is a legidimate question.

[FreeFall]

betting hogs?
bettingdogs?

huh?

[Edward-RAS]

Nice job with the interview Peter & Craig.

When you consider overall past results in WNBA as well as CBB, how influential the plays are in the WNBA market, and how well the plays consistently beat the closing line (+2.57 point average first 7 plays of 2010), HoopsEdge should be considered one of the top WNBA handicapping services.

[PRC]

good stuff. what's their ytd?

[Edward-RAS]

3-4 -1.45 units

2-1 on 2nd half plays

Of course you beat the closing number. When you release a play it moves in the direction of your release. Thanks for giving us a better number on Conn Friday night though...

Ed, are you serious? You should work in the Obama administration. Wow.

[Edward-RAS]

We could probably argue all day on who is a top WNBA service and who is not. People evaluate services differently. Long term results, short term results, closing line value, pricing, release time, widely available numbers, accuracy of records, reputation, endorsements, longevity, and responsible marketing are all some of the many different criteria to consider.

One thing not up for debate is that HoopsEdge has by far the most influence on the WNBA market of any service out there right now.

This might change at some point in the future, but that alone is merit for being considered currently one of the top WNBA handicapping services.

Of course they have been in business for many years. GL this season! Have a good day!

At the end of the day all anybody REALLY cares about is winners. No one really cares if you release the line late or if you are on the right side of the line movement before the game. If the play hits then they can care less what number they got in at or what the closing line was. If the play doesn't hit it, it doesn't make them feel any better knowing that they were on the right side of line movement prior to the game. The oddsmakers just move the lines all over the place trying to confuse everyone.

[lakerboy]

Good stuff- Loshak seems too anxious doing these interviews. He needs to work on his patience. Funny direction this thread is heading into as well.

[Johnny 55]

People are so painfully clueless in this thread it is embarassment to the human race. Give RAS any large sample size and he will make you money. If you beat the closing line, you will win money long term, sports betting 101.

But he didn't over the course of an entire WNBA season.

Edward you gonna offer a deal for SBR members on college football?
