"That's not how it works. That's not how any of this works."
The point is to take advantage of coin flip wagers (ones in which your research tells you that you have a 50/50 chance of winning) but are getting big odds in your favor. Do that often enough, and you watch your RoR grow. If you play poker, you'll understand.

New to this forum and US sports betting. I broadly agree with what you said above, however why do you guys use Return on Risk rather than Return on Investment? I have a few other questions regarding money management and would like to see a discussion on it. Anyone know of any threads on Covers?

Wow. A veteran and still not grown out of juvenile trolling with 'provocative' conclusions. Sad enough for a newbie but for you....?

Moot point. The meaning is identical and regardless of what we call it the result is the same thing. When you make an investment in anything (business or sports) you put money at risk. Use whichever term you like.New to this forum and US sports betting. I broadly agree with what you said above, however why do you guys use Return on Risk rather than Return on Investment?

I liked both of those plays, Key. Just missed on the Reds F5.
I expected the dbacks to keep it close (Tomlin prone to the long ball and not much of a swing and miss guy)... so I took the over on 10 (sounds high, but I capped 12.4 runs).
Good luck, bud. Glad you're back for another marathon and sharing your picks for free.

Agree. However, most folks put their beginning bankroll in the denominator and inflate their rolling performance (i.e., don't account how much money they stood to lose at any given point in consideration).

I bet on NHL and MLB only. Baseball is by far the most profitable sport there is because of all that was said above. We have to remember the best team in baseball will usually only win 60% of its games. The worst team in baseball will still win 40% of its games. These percentages get much further apart in the NHL. In baseball you can have mush more success betting on underdogs due to the above, the way I look at any game to begin with is basically that either team has a shot to win. I bet on lines only and leave emotion completely out of it. I try to identify weak lines and go from there to pitching matchups and momentum and then offensive production. Anyways the point is that a guy like Key will always be more profitable than a guy who plays big juice favorites on the ML or bets -1.5 lines at even money. Instead of bashing people on here, you should learn from others. Last I checked this was not a chatroom, it's a place to find stats and intelligent thoughts from others.
