    Quick introduction

    Hey guys. Not sure if I'm in the right place for this but anyway. Just a quick introduction, I'm a handicapper from Australia and only found out about SBR recently. This is an unbelievable forum and very happy I found it as it's filled with amazing content. Look forward to discussions about handicapping. I, myself handicap totals only, started off with Aussie Rules Football (AFL) currently have a winning % of 61.5% over 239 games, currently in Round 7 of the 2017 season (+40.58 units;16.9 ROI) last season decided to give NFL a crack, didn't set the world on fire but finished in the green for a 53.8% winning rate (+4.81U) also started NBL (National Basketball League; Australia) last year and was very happy to hit 66.2% for the season (+19.46U). Really looking forward to the NFL to start again, I'll post my picks in the NFL section. Also looking forward to joining in any discussions about handicapping! Cheers talk soon

    Chris

    Welcome. Never ventured into Aussie sports and looking forward to seeing how you work the totals. Hitting over 60% long term, however, is nearly impossible over the long term. Most successful bettors strive for 54-55%, although 53-54% is more realistic over the long haul.

    How long have you been handicapping Aussie sports?

    Absolutely. Goal is to be at 55% or better over 1000 picks, over half way there. I always hear "long term" is that usually around 1000 games?

    Started Aussie Rules Footy back in 2015, NBL started last season (2016/17), NRL this season. Can you guys bet on Aussie sports over in the US?

    By the look of your profile you're obviously a well respected member so I don't want to get off on the wrong foot here but I wasn't bragging at all. As I'm new to the forum, where do I post Australian sports picks?

    In the nascar section. Aussie sports are as foreign as nascar betting.

    Bet on a cricket game once and it took 3 days to cash.

    Oh ok.

    Not sure why people are calling me or insinuating that I'm a tout. I'm guessing you get a lot of them on these forums?

    Just did a quick Acoochy search. Seems like a complete idiot. Betting 10k and retracting etc. I'm not like that at all. I'm down to earth, I'll post my picks before games, then post results it's that simple.

    Oh, trust me, the thread gets better. Being a gambler in Australia, you wouldn't happen to know any cash-flow positive bookies?
