Tekari,
The easiest way to make money IMO until you figure out your own method is to piggyback the picks on this board. The info by Dicky, Dime and Intruder is great and is used by guys making picks. The picks on this board were up 24.9 units last week. Overall record 133-100 (+24.9 units). This means if you bet $100/game you would have been up $2490 last week. If you bet a nickel a game you would have won $12,450. Guys like Irish, Sea, Jwdog, DM, EGD, J2, Nysports,Space,Dicky etc make some nice picks. Later on you can come up with your own picks based on book info given here, line movements and your own capping.
