System vs. Handicapping

[bumpy]

Do you guys believe in systems based on criteria or handicapping on a game by game basis?

Re: System vs. Handicapping

I'm not a system guy. For example, if i like a horse on tape but the 'stats' say that the current jockey is 1 for 53 when he rides for that particular trainer, it won't bother me one bit. I'm betting the horse as an athlete and what the jock did in his previous 53 rides for this trainer has nothing to do with this particular horse on this particular day. If anything, its a bonus because other people will throw the horse out becuase the jock trainer combo stinks.

There's no wrong way if it works, whatever works for you is the 'right' way to do things. I would never tell anyone that they shouldnt bet off systems, to each his own.

I have a soccer system of sorts but it's a mainly an attempt at manipulating the 3way line. Everything else is a handicapped on a case by case basis.

Just like everything in life, it's wise to follow proven trends but still must look at everything on its own too :cocktail

Another question should be, 'why do people get caught up in the allure of a good system?'

Re: System vs. Handicapping

Here's a good system:

"Nicky's methods of betting weren't scientific, but they worked. When he won, he collected. When he lost, he told the bookies to go fuck themselves. I mean, what were they going to do, muscle Nicky? Nicky was the muscle."
