    Mental Aspect
    Does anybody else get to the point where they aren't sure about their picks? I've been feeling this way for a couple of days, but I've been up for both days combined. Maybe getting tired of capping and following games so intensely? Just wondered if anybody else gets like this sometimes. Most of the time I'm extremely confident about my picks, but lately its like I can visualize a million ways how the team I'm leaning towards will get beat

    you are doing it wrong...everything you are capping is already figured into the line

    handicap the line not the teams

        thats stupid, why not handicap the game before the line is out then pound it when you have something different?

          because the bookmakers know more than you. they have 19 computers full of information, etc and are not biased.

          you can't outsmart the book on a line

            I've said this before, but I do pay attention to early line movements but I dont think you should make bets based on just line movements.

              Just sounds like you need a bit of a break.

                It happens to us all at some point, second guessing a play, especially if you had a few that didnt go your way when you cappd it as solid play going the other way. Have you recently had a little streak of back door covers or something go against you or anything?
