No plays today with the "system Record stand at a hugely dissapointing 26-16 I am discusted. I will still finish over 62% but the rough streaks piss me off.
 
The 55% rule pick for tonight is
 
the Bucks -3 and the Hornets -5'
 
WHEN THE FAVORITE IS GETTING LESS THAN 55% of the public they cover 75% of the time. DONT BELIEVE ME? CHECK YOURSELF.

How do you know which team is getting 55%? Wagerline, Sportsinsights?

And I'd like to see you post where you got that stat.

Shouldn't the individual matchup matter, all these trend numbers are interesting but I cap games.

This works for very sport. Trust me. The trend is staggering. Obviously thier are other factors such as Portland who are bound to lose. Playing a long road trip etc etc etc. 55% or lower public favs.

If you want to get technical Mavs also were a play as they had right on 55% support

But yes this is one of the systems I've been tracking over the past few seasons and it's been hitting at an average 60+% which is pretty decent clip.

Ragingstorm,
 
Congratulations on your excellent record!
 
However, according to wagerline.com, when the consensus picks for the favorite are under 55%, this season the resultant record is only 81-74.
 
Where do you find your 55% public consensus?  Thanks.
