More alternatives to SportsBettingChamp

If for any reason you don't want to try John Morrison's SportsBettingChamp, here are some other options that are seriously worth considering.

 

Pay-monthly tipster services

Some of these services win and some lose. The best winners have a win-rate of 70-75%. The losers can cost you a fortune. They are less accurate because of a number of reasons;

1, They generally promise a certain number of picks per week. Because of this, if there are only a few obvious winners and they haven't matched their quota then the quality of predictions drop.

2, Their systems aren't as good as Sports Betting Champ.

The other big drawback is that you have to pay every month for new picks. After a year you could find yourself $1,200 down and with picks which lose as much as they win.

Statistics Sheets

Statistics sheets simply offer up-to-date data with which to make your own selections. The problems, again, are that you need to keep paying for new sheets so you have the edge, and you have to be able to interpret the data. If you make a mistake, or the data is old, then you lose money. It also takes a number of hours a day to extract the data and get your daily picks.

Alternatives To SportsBettingChamp

 

One more popular alternative to SportsBettingChamp is to purchase statistics services and use their sheets to find picks.

However, there are actually 2 downsides to following this method.

The first downside is the same one as using the sports handicappers. To get the detailed information from a reliable source will cost you about the same as using a handicapper. Although you do get information for more then one sport, you are still going to pay at least $300 for one year and up to $500 or more for premium services.

Now for the 2nd downside. Time and a lot of it is needed to go through and analyze the information on the sheets. It is often overwhelming, as these are the same types of sheets the pros are using. Unless you are doing sports betting full time or if have been a sports bettor for a long time already, this is going to take some time. It will probably take you at least 4-5 hours to get a few picks. This is now something you will have to do every day and pay for every year.

Guidance For Sports Gambling

For those of you who want to try their hands at sports betting here are some tips to follow:

First, understand that if you are a citizen of the United States, many banks and credit card companies will not let you directly fund a casino account. So you need to find a casino that has funding availability for you, the U.S. citizen.

Second, when you do find a casino, play with "play money" awhile so you can familiarize yourself with the software. Most casinos will have you actually download their gaming software to your computer. Thereafter, you need not surf to and log in to their site to play, just click an icon on your desktop.

Third, be aware that the online gaming business is very competitive - they all want YOU as a new customer! So they will offer incentives such as matching your initial deposit up to as high as $1,200 with free money from them.

Where were you betting yesterday?

I had some important things to work out yesterday and completely missed the game between Indiana Pacers and New your Knicks, however I think for those who have watched it was turn around match. I think New York knicks were the favorites for the fans at Madison Square. The team however completely failed to rise upto their expecation.

The Pacers started the early quarters with a torrid pace, taking the lead with forward Danny Granger’s four shots. However, with Zach Randolph’s 15 points and Eddy Curry adding 14 points, the game was tied at 55 at halftime. The New York Knicks had the advantage all throughout taking the lead from the beginning of the second half. But with an impressive turnaround, the Indiana Pacers used a strong defensive effort in the fourth quarter and outscored the New York Knicks.

The Indiana Pacers hope to add more wins in their NBA record when they host forward Travis Outlaw and the Portland Trailblazers on February 9, before hosting guard Rajon Rondo and the NBA’s best Boston Celtics on February 12.

I am not sure where all this is going to lead them and I am yet to plce my first bet on them, but I hope they recover and bounce back strongly.

Keeping my fingers crossed!
