I go either of two ways...
statisitical (some would call technical handicapping or math-based) - what I am most comfortable with, I am very happy if I know the number i am looking for and have some reason that I arrived at it
contrarian - look to go against public opinion, teams that have overperformed, or bet on teams that have underperformed if I think the matchup is favorable.
I think line-shopping is still underrated and know that that adds a ton of value...I am using 8 books at the moment, for baseball that usually means I am betting into a 5c or better line, so even if I make a mistake it does not kill me
I avoid trend-handicapping and "fundamental handicapping" (matchups) unless it falls under the contrarian mode |
