    Trust me you'll probably do about as well or better than most of the so called "pros" even if you flip coins. Good luck!

    Breaking out from under other people's plays is a good thing and a step in the right direction. It took me a while years ago also.

    I wish you the best of luck,

    I have some math analys...with back testing...get under in that game with 56% of times (with my parameters)
    was using vegas line (195.5)...and when go to bookie I saw some line movment to 196...probly bad sign...but it should be easier to go under 196 then 195.5

    thx for all good words from the earler posters...

    at least 1 win...so no 0-3 today

    my biggest problem with picking my own is that "I'm a kind of action junkie"

    But so long I go over with bets that i predict more that "magical"52.38% (and they are also over that)
    Will many bets, give more profit.

    But if I write down the picks here and also keeping track. Will I maybe be more carefull with my picks.(nobody want to be a idiot in public)

    And also reading other "cappers" thread will give me new inputs and also comments about my picks will help me be a better capper

    regards

    some recap...before going to next day...

    today(and total):
    1-2 (-120)

    not good, not bad....

    detroit games vs worst team with +1.5 ....easy money
    chi/uta ov ...hmmm what was that...one word..catastrophic play
    dal/sac un ....not so bad..without mavs 31 points quarter could it be nice..but after 3 q...we had a game again

    It was more fun to lose today...when it was I and no other that lose my money

    Today only one game fits my system so far:
    GSW @ PHO ov216.....(but the lines is not up in my book on the games yest...so it could be some changes)

    I relly dont like this game...so the best is probly noplay...but I'm a action junkie..soo

    Will see when the lines come up, in my bookie..then will I decide if play or no play

    If no change in lines:

    Reson why I should: no play.....GSW have not make so many points in meetings vs PHO
    Reson why play:...If its a EV+ game will I lose money when not playing

    Teorem that I got from poker:
    When not playing EV+ losing
    When playing EV+ winning
    When playing EV- losing
    When not playing EV- winning

    But we will see over the evning if some line changes etc etc ...if play or not (will post if I play it)

    Good Luck to you, learning and capping the games yourself is the way to go, when i started to bet i was doing things on my own, and i was making money, then i thought that it would be even better to follow good tipsters and so called pros, guess what i've lost a lot of money, then i got back to do things myself, and i started making money again. I'm not saying that you can't find some very good cappers in this forum, because you surelly can, but use them as a reference, do the capping yourself, learn from mistakes, and keep disciplined.

    Don't be an action junkie, specially now that you're learning and starting to do things by yourself, stick to 2 games per day. You'll find out that the real pros usually don't make too many bets, the more you bet the more you expose yourself, and the more chances you'll have to lose.

    Once again good luck to you

    I just compered my picks vs Dunkel list.(all 5 picks)
    If I had filtered out the games when we wasnt agree with each other then the result had been total: 0-1 (-110)
    So that filter had been little better.
    Will start tracking that

    4-1 so far today and 1 game left okl -4.5 (looking good to halftime)

    It gave some result to "work" with the picks instead of what I did earlier this week.
    Hopefully it was not only a lucky shoot today....

    If I see back on the first week as my "own capper"

    I will absolutly skip the random 1 unit bets...they cost me 340
    I'm to new/bad as capper to have afford to throw away money on random bets.
    And the work on this saturday gave result..hopefully not only a lucky shoot

    Lets find some winner tomorrow also
