NHL Totals Betting: Expert Advice and Tips from Doc's Hockey Handicapper
by Doc's Sports - 9/28/2018
Hockey is a unique sport. It's not only played on ice with skate blades that are sharp enough to slice you open, and it's not only the fastest sport played on earth, but because it's the only sport that allows a team the option of removing their goaltender from the net and adding an extra attacking player. Think about it, there are 11 players on the field for both teams in football - you can't just put a 12th man on the field without getting flagged. There are only nine MLB positions to field every single game, and in the NBA, you can only have five guys on the court. Read More >>
Betting NHL: Handicapping Primer from Doc's Sports New Expert Handicapper
by Doc's Sports - 9/26/2018
Hockey is king in Canada. This I know from experience. In the majority of U.S markets, hockey is almost an afterthought compared to the popularity of the NFL, NCAA, NBA and MLB. But after last year's thrilling postseason that ended with a Washington Capitals' Stanley Cup parade, it's time to start giving hockey a chance. Read More >>
NFL ATS: What to Look for when Betting Against the Spread
by Chris Vasile - 9/25/2018
Football is king. That we know. What we should also know is that while the NFL takes the honors in terms of coverage, revenue, and everything in between compared to the NCAA, the on-field product is suffering from a lack of clarity and consistency pertaining to the rules. Since each game is officiated by a different crew, there is almost no consistency on what rules are being enforced correctly and what rules are being forced incorrectly. Because of that, teams need to adjust on the fly and bettors need to do the same if they want to keep their bankrolls intact. Read More >>
How to Bet on College Football: Tips, Advice and Proven Wagering Strategy
by Chris Vasile - 9/13/2018
Football is king. That we know. What we should also know is that while the NFL takes the honors in terms of coverage, revenue, and everything in between, the on-field product is at an all-time low. The action is just all around sloppy. And if you combine that with penalties, unclear rules, and inconsistent officiating, you'll understand why the NFL will continue to play second fiddle to the NCAA on an enter-tainment level. On a betting level, the NFL still reigns supreme. However, betting on college football has more upside and value to it if you know what you are doing. Read More >>
Horse Racing Betting Guide: How to Calculate Betting Odds and Payoffs
by Chris Vasile - 9/13/2018
Contrary to popular belief, most people who bet on horse racing have no idea what's going on or what the best way to make money is. They generally stick to a favorite number, or color of the saddle cloth, or horse color for that matter, and hope to get lucky. If it's your lucky day, sure, you may win a few bucks, but it won't break the bank. Read More >>

Exotic Horse Betting: Exactas, Trifectas and Superfecta Tips and Analysis
by Chris Vasile - 8/28/2018
Nothing says "summer" better than a trip to the racetrack and several ice-cold drinks while basking in the sun and skimming through the daily racing program. Unfortunately, only a small amount of the betting public actually knows how to dissect the program properly, which gives them a bit of an edge when it comes to placing their wagers. Most amateurs or leisure bettors stick to the simple bets like win, place or show despite the potential of a massive payout when playing the exotics. For those of you who don't know what an "exotic" is, it's simply a fancy word for playing the Daily Double, Exacta, Trifecta, and Superfecta. Read More >>

How To Bet Champions League Football: Advice and Expert Handicapping
by Chris Vasile - 8/24/2018
The Champions League is the most prestigious club football event on planet earth. Year after year, the top teams from Europe's best and smallest leagues go toe-to-toe in a group stage/knockout round tournament format. This format is intended to give the minnows of the tournament, teams like Bate Borisov or BSC Young Boys, a chance to cash in on the TV deals and play against the top competition in Europe in front of their home fans.

How to Bet on NASCAR: Expert Tips and Advice
by Chris Vasile - 8/24/2018
Sleep on NASCAR at your own peril, but NASCAR is one of the most popular sports in the United States, especially in the southern part of the country. NASCAR is the fastest sport on the planet, with cars reaching upwards of 200 MPH on an oval racecourse. Because NASCAR is big in the warmer-climate states, NASCAR essentially runs all year long, culminating in the year-end Monster Energy Cup that de-clares the season's champion. Read More >>
Power Rankings: Tutorial and How They Help Us in Sports Betting
by Chris Vasile - 8/23/2018
If you were to ask 10 different people how they felt about a certain team, you would get 10 different answers. The beauty of sports is that every fan is unique and has the ability to form their own opinion on how a team could get better or why they are so bad in the first place. There are very few, if any, that are universally agreed upon as the "best" team in their respective league. Off the top of my head, the Golden State Warriors come to mind, and maybe Manchester City based on how dominant they were last year in the English Premier League. Read More >>
NBA Over and Under Betting Tips: Best Stats to Factor When Wagering Totals
by Chris Vasile - 8/23/2018
The NBA might be one of the hardest sports to turn a profit in by wagering on the totals. In sports like football, hockey, or even baseball, teams can get lucky and have runs gifted to them by turnovers, own goals, or even errors. However, in basketball, a team can only score and accumulate points themselves. If they are having an off night shooting the basketball, your "over" bet is as good as garbage. Unless of course their opponent picks up the slack and scores around 60 percent of the total - something that very rarely happens. Read More >>
Who is the Best Sports Handicapper? (The Shocking Truth)
by Doc's Sports - 8/16/2018
"There's no such thing as the 'best' handicapper on Doc's Sports website," is what I tell our clients when they inevitably ask the recurring question I field during each new sports season. This is an honest answer. That's because we have 12 of the top handicappers in the world working for our site. There are about 12-15 others in the industry that I truly trust and respect, and most of those guys I know personally and consider them friendly competition. Other than this small group of experts, maybe around 30 worldwide, I would say that 99 percent of the handicappers out there wouldn't make the cut on our site or any of our trusted competitors' websites. Not even close. Read More >>
The Most Common MLB Baseball Betting Mistakes to Avoid
by Chris Vasile - 7/31/2018
We are now into the "unofficial" second half the Major League Season, and it has been one hell of a ride so far. There have been blowouts, pitching duels, ejections, injuries, trade speculation, a potentially controversial home run derby result, and a surprisingly entertaining All-Star Game. As bettors, the mid-summer break always seems to catch us at the right time. It gives us time to rest and focus our attention elsewhere for a short period of time. It also gives us time to analyze the data and records we have kept, starting with any futures plays and every wager since then. Read More >>
Sports Betting Tips: What Does it Take to Become a Professional Bettor
by Chris Vasile - 7/31/2018
Sports betting is one of the hardest industries to break into as a professional bettor, and anyone who has ever tried to do so will tell you that it's far from an overnight success story. Sports betting will take up the majority of your time and requires the kind of dedication that most people can't commit too. You may think a professional sports bettor builds his reputation off of how much he wins. And while that may be true, there is a whole lot of strategy testing and losing that comes way before that.

MLB Runline Betting Advice and Tips: Give or Take the Runs?
by Chris Vasile - 6/21/2018
Winning a game in a professional sports league of any kind can be difficult for even the best teams. Very few teams have gone through a season undefeated (only NFL Teams), and even then not every win is as easy as teams hoped they would be -- even the margin of victory is sometimes too close for comfort. Unfortunately for bettors, teams don't care how they win or by how many runs, goals or points, as long as they win the game. Read More >>

Learn to Bet on NCAA College Football: Expert Tips and Advice
by Chris Vasile - 6/2/2018
While the NFL is the most-wagered-upon sport in North America, college football is the most exciting brand of football you can watch on TV. The passion these kids play with is second to none, and the century-old rivalries amongst some of college's elite programs makes that one game a season sometime mean so much more than a national title. Since Michigan is generally out of the CFP discussion by November, their game against Ohio State is the most important of their season. Michigan wants to beat Ohio State so badly that some of the fan base would considered their season a success if that's the only marquee win of the year. Read More >>

by Chris Vasile - 6/2/2018
Aside from the World Cup, there is no tournament on planet earth that can come close to the excite-ment that March Madness brings on a yearly basis. All season, teams battle to be one of the 68 teams selected to partake in the tournament and have a chance to stun the world and win a National Cham-pionship. The tournament format of one-and-done makes each game so intense that it's basically must-see TV.
