    New to the Forum
    Hey whats up fellas? Long time Gambler but very new to the internet. My kid got me on the computer so i figured i would search for some advice. I have had a tough stretch over the last year and a half and i need a reliable capper because i cant pick a winner for my life. Do you guys have any suggestions? I was thinking brandon lang but i really have no clue what im looking for on the internet. Please fellas any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

      First of all welcome to the forum, this is the best sportsbetting forum on the internet so you came to the right place.

      i really have no clue what im looking for on the internet.
      That's why you were thinking Brandon Lang.

      Don't pay for picks.

      Have a look around here, each sport has it's designated section, and we certainly have some great cappers here. Good Luck!

          I think we posted at the same time. Didn't see your post when I first started typing.

                    Jay , cap ur own games and make ur own judgement. And if u say u are not good at that, then maybe sports betting is not for u my friend.

                          Jay you can do a few different things here..Try to cap your own games...go in the service plays area(the guys in there follow daily they are normally the real plays) but that does not mean they win all the time.


                          Also follow a few cappers here check out sub forums good luck!

                                            I'm a converted Romo basher. Course the defense is playing great but give the devil his due, he is finishing drives with scores and not bone head mistakes. He really improved in a lot of areas. I still would rather cut off my last pinky finger than see him hold for the field goal kicker on the last play of the game.

                                                I have actually done pretty decent over my career as a gambler. Just this last year and half has been brutal and i didnt change anything in my style. When you say cap your own games i think thats something a profesional does. I wouldnt really consider myself a capper because i only used my local newspaper and the information from tv also gut instinct to pick my games. I might have the wrong idea of what a capper is? I hope i dont get bashed for this one lol.....

                                                ps; all i hear is dont play lang's games

                                                    Romo's biggest change is actually in the short pass.. He is now looking for other options besides Austin, Williams, and dumping it off more... Which wih the speed of the Cowboys is making a huge difference. Not to say he does not take a first look at his primary receivers.

                                                      Anytime we take the advice of another and it doesn't pan out we feel as if we were burned especially if you paid for that advice.

                                                      The problem with many tout services is they are in it strictly in it to make money. Let me correct myself and be more specifuic. They are strictly in it to make THEMSELVES money. This means many of them give out a certain side one place and give the opposite side somewhere else. Either through a ghost site or in conjunction with a partner. Now ofcourse not everyone is doing this. I am sure there are certain services out there that are legitimate but you are still paying for some of the exact same data that you can find on this site or others like this one for free from guys that are here doing this on the regular.

                                                      On these pages you will find posters that are very intuative. Some play stat based plays. Some play mathmatically. Some play based on actual knowledge of specific sports and naturally some play hunches. All have streaks and when they are on it can be very profitable. All hit bumpy patches and that's to be expected.

                                                      The thing is though, these guys here do this because they love it. They live it. Their business is to make money gambling, not sell picks.

                                                      Now if you are genuine and are just getting onto this, WHY? I mean why do it. Most have a defective gene that controls common sense that is missing and thus they get into this game.

                                                      Ok seriously. If you are just starting out you'll want to take some time and explore the different styles of capping games. Learn what works for others that are having success and adapt the portions from each that best suits how you understand it. The Think Tank has some amazing stuff and people over there. I warn you though it can be very technical but if you have an understanding for that sort of thing it can be extremely benificial. The individual sports sub-forums will have a wealth of information as well. Take some time (sometimes weeks) and get to know the posters there and track which of them is running hot or cold and evaluate for yourself as to why.

                                                      All in all, what all this was set up to say is that you nor anyone else should pay attention to tout services. Unless you just have so much extra money laying around and no time to invest wisely and don't care who steals it from you.

                                                                  Connect the dots from there and good luck to you.
