Reality of Handicapping Sports

Professional sports handicappers are a rare breed to say the least. Ninety
percent of their customers are gambling addicts who thrive on the action
of beting win or lose. Those players demand action every day forcing the
capper to give them marginal plays to keep their business. I am a
professional gambler with over 40 years experience in Sports Beting and I
know that playing a game just because it is on TV or because you are a fan
of that team is not the smartest thing to do. Cappers have to give the
betting public what they want and what they want is lots of action with
lots of HYPE regardless of how solid the play is. For instance I have
played five football games this season since preason began pro and college
I also won all five but if I were selling these plays my customers would
be raising hell wanting more action. Personally I don't understand why
good cappers even fool with the public player.

    I agree to some extent Bennie. Unfortunately there are many pretty good
    handicapping services that feel they have to have a play on Monday and
    Thursday nites when they really do not have a strong opinion on the
    game....The plays is simply for marketing. We only had 4 Monday nite plays
    last year......

    In my years of being part of a service I have run into lot's of types of
    bettors and there are many that would love to have a service that was 5-0
    this year. I can promise you that.....

    tell the truth may all your plays win unless I have the other side.

    Beenie - I agree with you...If a capper is so good, why bother selling
    plays if you can make a ton on money betting on the games you cap? A
    question I have always wondered. Anyway, I greatly appreciate you and the
    other posters / cappers placing their picks and logic on this site. To
    you, AAA, and the other good ones - Keep up the good work!!
