    actually, he had a bad year last year.

    but, he is as legit as it gets with a very solid long term track record.

      A person or bet that moves the line is for real because it creates equity in the play. For example, if Joe Tout comes out with a 40 star play and has a following that will change the odds you want to get your bet in before it moves. It's similar to betting "syndicate action" blindly. You know the line is going to move in your favor.

        Or "weight of money" to put it simply

          Dr. Bob is legit. I followed him way back before he started charging for picks (actually he may have charged then released his slate on Sat/sunday) I forget. He has some very good handicapping skills.

          He has a large following and that's why the line starts to move once he releases on thursday.

              This is the ultimate jjgold quote. Sometimes I think jj is an undercover agent or something.

                  Why don't we just say JJ doesn't win sports betting. Some people actually do.

                    Never follow a tout blindly. I've found it better to wait until a guy like Dr. Bob moves the line and then play the other side.

                    There are forum posters that were able to move lines in sports that weren't bet that heavily because these posters had such a huge following.

                      If you know who's moving the line, that's half the battle.

                      You can actually do OK playing the other side of steam plays in NCAA hoops when Syndicates are moving the line.

                      When a tout moves a line it's easy pickings.

                          Yeah... cause in 2005, when he hit at 70% for the year in CFB, you would have made a TON by fading him....

                            genuis, did you ever figure out how much he moved the line and what you would have made playing the other way after the line moved? Doc Sports had a much better Big Ten play of the year record years ago and he moved the line much more than Bob.

                            Things have a way of evening out for touts.

                                            and he's suggests to his clients to not bet his opinions, even though they've done well over the years.

                                                    Dr Bob is good for +20 units per year if he is in his best form!
                                                    What is so great about 20 units for 4 months?

                                                        I just recently finished listening to a conference call with Kenny White the top oddsmaker in the United States and when he was asked does he pay attention to line moves that are the result of touts releasing a play he said the only tout whose opinions he cares about and who they subscribe to is Dr. Bob

                                                              Well, he's averaged +26 over the last 8 years (NFL + NCAA) at -110. At his recommended 2% per unit, that's an average return of %50 a year -- just in football.

                                                              I'd say that's a pretty damn good investment if you ask me.

                                                                Dr. Bob went 9-6 for the week in cfb if you include his strong opinions. So that's 60% and he hit his top 3 star play. In the past few years he will be good one year and not as good the next year. Last year he was not as good as in the past so maybe this year he will have a real good year.

                                                                    I am a pro

                                                                    I have done it long enuff to know that no one is consistent over 10 years. And if they are try going through that 10 yr run with them. u cant it doesnt work that way

                                                                    if ur betting on a capper ur betting on that season. they may do well and they may not. you have just as good chance winning on ur own picks than dr. bobs. dr bob is for real cuz he tries to pick winners. he uses his method which intrigues all u dumb people cuz most amercians can barely add. however, its a simple as he may win this season and he may lose. just like everyone else.

                                                                    he is not special at all.

                                                                    having a good season is just as lucky as having a bad season. there are too many invariables from season to season that one applied method will ****in screw you. Then again u could kick ass. GET IT!!!!

                                                                    I have done this for a living for 15 years.

                                                                    dr bob is for real but its very likely he will have a losing season this year. JUST LIKE EVERYONE

                                                                    come on people. common sense

                                                                    betting on a capper is just like betting on a game

                                                                    good luck
