    Is this dumb ?
    Let's try something. I can't do this because I don't have time but maybe is worth trying. This idea is not mine...I got it form reading someone else thread.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    3 people should choose a single sport they are familiar with, let's say NBA. They should get daily together online at a specific time to discuss what bet to place.

    Every guy should choose MAXIMUM one game a day minimul 3 games a week... and everyone needs to explain their choice.

    In order for one bet to be accepted the other 2 guys must to agree. So a bet will be placed just when is 100% consensus.

    The votes will be just YES or NO...no need to explain the reason for voting.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    Doing this I think there will be some pressure to come up with a good pick.

    Compulsive betting will be impossible since you can bet just one game a day plus you need approval.

    Maybe 3 minds really works better then one.

    No need to risk real money, thanx to SBR spreadsheet anyone can experiment a month or two for free and see if it works.

    My square friend have something similar to this. They call it the council - 5 member. They are up some nice cash according to their spreadsheet.

        there seems to be leader of the pack mentality others will tend to agree, and outcome depends on how leader picks, thats how i see it. MAES i find iif you go with your first hunch you have a much better chance to win

              I hope you haven't paid a patent lawyer yet to write up the plans because I think this genius plan is called a Syndicate

                  Sports bettors are an egotistical bunch. Those who think they know their shit aren't going to waste their time with other people's analysis. Those who will go for this approach are your average bettor who will not win in the long run. My 2 cents.

What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?
