Volume players earn more. Take a player that hits 70% winners, not likely to find them, but to keep the numbers clean this player is very selective vs a volume player that can hit 60% which is achievable.
70% player makes 10 bets of $10 = (+70 - 33) = $37
60% player makes 100 bets of $10 = (+600 - 440) = $560
If you are selling picks its nice to maintain the glossy win %. If you are trying to build a bankroll you a better playing any event that has a 52.7 win percentage provided your units allow you to get down on each selection.
Pros look at ROI.... not so much winning percentage. Very few "pros" out there. Maybe a couple of thousand people who can do it for a living contrary to what a lot of guys on here might fantasize about. You would be extremely wealthy if you could hit 56%. It's just not realistic to hit higher than 53 or 54% in a good year. 56% is almost out of the question in the long run.....sure in small sample size. No way people are getting 5600 correct ATS out of 10,000 picks
Just so you guys know the story behind this pick. The owner of Doc’s (son of Doc) told Jeremy the house NBA handicapper that today was going to be the day they were selling their NBA game of year. Jeremy said to the owner he really didn’t like anything on the whole board today. Owner told Jeremy to just pick something because he thought today would be a good day to win a game of the year. First day back from all-star break, build sales momentum before March Madness, whatever. And that my friends is how the Sixers is your 8* game of the year from Doc’s. If you guys think it is wise to buy picks, keep in mind how the business works behind the scenes.
