As you may have noticed, the forum was offline for a period. We identified a security incident to Sportsbook Review Forum and took the site offline as a containment step while we investigated.
We wanted to make sure the system and site were restored and secured before bringing things back online and you will see that we are requiring all forum users to reset their password as a precautionary step.
If you have any questions, our moderators are around and happy to help where they can.
No such thing
the number is set for a reason
do not try and outsmart them
project line movements instead
I am still teaching you

If linesmakers were sharper, they would have remained in this country and wagered........... this does not all apply to all, but most.
I have no desire to leave this country and never having the option of returning, only to make a few extra bucks.............many are just desperate.

JJ's contributions to the betterment of SBR is endless. Not only is the guy out there posting the post to keep numbers up, he's posting the spreadsheets to encourage others to do better than he himself has done, he's making video history everytime he decides to post another video, he's playing player agent, sportsbook liason, he keeps Fishhead in check, coddles Bobby and Vendetto, plays customer relations guru on behalf of SBR John and has been the mentor/idol of the likes of OnTheWhat and at times Bateman, now the guy takes on the task of critiquing the experts.
It's not a resume JJ it's a friggin legacy.

Wrong. oddsmakers make mistakes more often than one would assume....by under valuing or over valuing a team. When football is overlapping with baseball and there are bound to be mistakes here and there since their job becomes sooo much more time consuming . Besides and oddsmaker is virtually clueless on some games, especially small schools...he just goes off what his sharps are on i would assume.

they just want even action and collect the juice, they couldn't care less who wins as long as the action is even.

If there were so many mistakes books would get buried
Being a bookie is one of most profitable business in the world
Justi let me tell you how to win
The line is your girlfriend make love to it, bet it early, middle it later, scalp it, get out of bet anything but be HEAVY ON ONE SIDE
Most of your plays should have virtually no risk as the outcome of every event should be even or a profit

JJgold most gamblers could have edges on every single bet and still lose based on them not following a decent money management criteria.
If the suns are -7 and you get it at -1 (just an example), But you go all in every bet, eventually you will go broke, and this is why 95% of gamblers lose.
