following any handicapper blindly is a problem. Judge there anaylisis for yourself and if you can find a hole in there anaylisis don't be afraid to ask questions like if team A is favored by 7 and you think they will win by 3 ask them why they think that and if the response is" because I bet my whole bankroll on this one play" or "they are my favorite team" fade them . Just be more careful next time. I am sorry for your loss and hope that I as well as the other posters have helped you
