Long story short I was just getting back into betting and because of time constraints and personal issues I just don't have time to handicap at all. Thankfully, I have had some financial success lately and finally paid off my student loans, so I have much more disposable income plus I've lurked on here for years and finally want to give back. I figured I'd finally cave and start purchasing picks. So far I'm going to get NFAC Moves, NHL Crew, and The Big Moves Consensus from thebigmoves.com.
The following handicappers/groups/whatever you want to call them are ones that I am considering purchasing. I'm hoping you guys can tell me which ones I should stay away from, etc:
- phillygodfather, nfacmoves, buryrightnumber, bigbettiger, phillyrooster, diamondsfrankie and phillyseal. I did want to get the poker boys moves picks, but they don't come with the VIP package. I'm more than willing to skip the VIP package and get a few of their packages individually.
- Sports Atari.
- Oskeim.
- JR Kennedy from Tim Donaghy's RefPicks. Before you laugh at me, he does seem to do very well.
- Ike M from RefPicks as his NHL plays seem to be doing well.
- Dr. Bob. I know the NFL plays are from another capper. Curious if I should get just his NCAAF picks next year or grab a package that has NBA, NCAAB, NFL, etc.
- 500Wager.
- Teddy Covers (Is her good/decent at anything other than the NFL?)
The one guy who I will not purchase from is Steve Budin. I read his book a few years back and this guy is a complete clown. I just can't bring myself to give him any money. Other than that, I'm open to suggestions about the guys I mentioned and whomever else I may have missed.
I'll be getting the plays from thebigmoves.com by Friday the latest and I'll make sure to post them.
Oh, and I plan on betting 500-1000 a game (I'll most likely stick to just $500 a game for my first year) and I'm willing to spend around 5k on yearly subscriptions. Only reason I'm shying away from the Philly Godfather is because those guys play way too many games per week for my liking. And you guys can count on plays for at least 6 months on whatever cappers we call decide on.
