Do Not:
1. Use trends.
Trend handicappers lose.
They draw data from small
sample sizes.
Trends either even out over time
or are already built into the line.
2. Bet on a feeling.
Emotion should be reserved for
game time.
As difficult as this sounds;
I often advise never to wager on
your hometown team.
Most tend to overvalue their
own fan allegiances.
3. Parlay.
There are always special
circumstances, but generally:
These bets tie two or more teams
together with hopes for bigger
payouts. Sportsbooks often take
out a greater %, making long-term
ROI more difficult.
