Spot Bettors Check-In

[ACoochy]

Not talking about the guys that have to get action on everyday (aka the books paycheck). Those guys are a undisciplined rabble whose emotions are in control of them.

Talking bout the guys that almost have the ability to sniper their picks using a model of particular criteria that yields +EV results, year in, year out....May only make as little as 1 play every couple of weeks but when they do will hit around 65-70% of the time??

Are these guys more/less successful than ur everyday guy who reads the lines, chases steam and/or finds the best price??

Rhetorical ? Takes a lot of discipline. Waiting for that special hand that you can hammer. That's the stragegy I will now try to employ, as I use SBR points for the daily grind. But I am going to try to make some scores in the horse racing game. Find that 20/1 shot and go all in.

Anyone can say anything, Cooch. Now, unless my post changes their minds, people will say "sure, I win a lot," "exploit (fill in anything here), "no one can win except the books," and many variations of the same themes. What you're asking ain't new Cooch. Good luck to you. Because in the end, that's all that matters.

I think it depends on pure luck. I could make more in a day with a lucky parlay than most of these big shots could ever make in a month and vice versa.

Whats wrong with being the books paycheck? isnt that a nice thing?

Checking in. I find that I do not have the time necessary to partake in the "daily grind". Though I do update information daily.
How else would I determine if I have a play or not, right?
Also, I believe once in awhile it is OK to step out on one, take a shot.
