Thinking outside of the box

[nakedput]

I've noticed a lot of guys on here continue to use the same angles to predict the outcome or spreads ..."4th game in 5 nights - 67% of the time this team lost therefore fade this team" blah blah blah...this is just one example. If these angles actually worked then why the hell does almost everybody use them and is still unprofitable (or barely scratching the surface). I could turn on any betting radio station, any analyst on TV that talks about odds and spreads and they will mention the same angles. Obviously none of these guys are multi millionaires. People need to start thinking outside of the box when coming up with potential trends. Rant over.

yes, you are correct, some people do make bad correlations when looking at data.

A revelation.

Indeed. If you bet using only public knowledge then you're doomed.

Modern day superstition. The ancients would examine animal entrails to predict the future, now we look at trends.
