Edit: Sorry guys this thread could have been good but I can only give 2 points at a time so I can't give away all my points (found out about only giving 2 points after I posted)

In an effort to have atleast one usefull post here I will give someone all my points (1413) to whoever shares the best betting tip or advice.

Rules

1. Post it in this thread
2. End date will be next monday the 19th
3. I choose the winner

I'm looking for stuff I've never heard before and try to explain it well just don't write something like money management or jerking off before you make you picks is better explain why it better.

something you've never heard before huh?

how about as a non pro you are only allowed to transfer 2 points a day? so your offer of 1400 points for advice isn't going to work.

but i like the jerking off before making picks

Since you're a non-pro, I'll give you some 2 point advice. Don't ask anyone on this forum for gambling advice, unless you are looking to be foreclosed on and destitute.

Even though you can't send your points, I'll give you a serious answer anyways.

My opinion is that Money Management is the #1 characteristic on whether you will make money or lose it all. For the most part, a lot of us can pick winners fairly consistently, just solely off of watching a ton of sports, and knowing the basics about sports betting (key numbers, don't tease across 0, etc). However, obviously that doesn't equate to someone being a successful gambler.

I always used to wonder why I would compete in the contest and have positive units almost every time, but my bankroll never looked the same. Its when you realize that if you could only put a max of 3 units on a play, then you don't have the dramatic swings that you often see with your own bankroll. Since you can bet as much as the book will allow you. Also, this helps curb the mentality of "I have to get my losses back" after you have a long losing streak. Based solely off of better money management, I have gone from being a perennial loser to a small time winner. You won't see the crazy swings like people without money management. Where they go from $100 to $1500 in one day, but you also won't see the opposite effect either. Obviously, this advice won't help you pick winners, but it will definitely keep you in the game longer, and if you do pick winners. It guarantees that your balance will reflect it.

1, Go to College, Get a Business Degree.
2. Use students loans to fund your gambling habit.
3. One you have loan money in place to gamble. Stop gambling.
4. Take that money instead to a hitman. Ask hitman to "erase" the shift leader at your local McDonals.
5. Go fill out an application at McDonalds.
6. Take the Rams and the points.
7. You want fries with that?

[Ernie Mccracken]

If you want to gamble, get an MBA and a jewish name. Raise some funds and put it all on risky credit swaps. Either you win and make 100 million or lose and make 25 million. EZ game.

Though I would agree money management is the most important virtue, I couldnt help but chuckle at this statement. I'd say this couldnt be farther from the truth. This place is littered with losing plays from all of us who do nothing but watch sports. Radio hosts, TV analysts, and all people who's job it is to watch and know sports couldnt pick a winner if their life depended on it.

Not to mention the spread is there to make adjustments for all the things that you do see on the field. Isnt that the job of a Linesmaker, to offset any differences of the historical performances of a team?

After 20+ years of gambling the only advice I can give you OP is that.....

The surest bet is no bet at all

Don't bet the NBA unless you are Haralabob.

Bet college sports, college basketball definitely. Bet the WNBA as well.

Set up a labby.

#1 Don't get emotionally involved. If you are emotionally involved in a team or teams or players you will not be able to judge them objectively. Example... lets say a close relative of yours is on trial for murder. There is a mountain of evidence against him... will you think he's guilty? Probably not. Will the rest of the world... yes. It's sort of like when OJ when was on trial.

#2 Study the actual numbers. As many numbers as you can find. Look for consistency.

#3. Don't watch the games. This will help you from getting emotionally involved with players and teams. If you stop watching the games you will be forced to look at numbers only. Numbers don't have emotions and you shouldn't either when making your plays.

#4 Become Pro and give us all of your points.

True, pretty generic statement on my part, but if the OP can't predict winners anywhere close to 50%. Then no amount of money management is going to make him be a winner.
