Contrarian Betting Systems for College Football, Aug 28 2010
By Fun and Games - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sports Investing: College Football Betting Systems (Paperback)
I enjoyed Fabrizio's first book, "Sports Investing: Profiting from Point Spreads" - which gives a good overview of applying contrarian methods to the sports betting world. The first book is fairly general but does a good job of helping readers apply systematic methods. In particular, the author advocates objective approaches that make sense, such as: "betting percentages" (to find value and bet against the general public) and "line movement setups" (that indicate the direction of syndicate/big bettors).http://www.amazon.com/Sports-Investing-Profiting-Spreads-Marketplace/dp/160970004X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1283008305&sr=8-1
This follow-up book on "College Football Betting Systems," is fairly thin, but it takes the first book a step further. It focuses on college football data - and in particular, shows parameters such as specific point spreads and betting percentages ranges that have helped the author and his team achieve decent results.
Sports bettors looking for a get-rich-quick method will be disappointed. However, those looking for a solid approach that can be used both "stand-alone" -- or as part of additional handicapping methods -- will find a lot of useful and practical betting info. Dan Fab and his team have put themselves out there with published data, methods, and picks for years -- and have produced generally profitable results, even after vig.

College Football -- handicapper's edge, Sep 11 2010
By Better Sports Bettor - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sports Investing: College Football Betting Systems (Paperback)
I like the fact that the author doesn't hype his work. I believe that this "sports investing" value approach can help cappers get an edge. I think it is best used in combination with other handicapping methods as well. Although the edge is slight, the historical numbers DO show a statistically significant bias that backs the approaches. Even so, I'm liking the 6-0 start to the 2010 season for one of the author's college football approaches.I hope the authors keep up the good work and I look forward to a Major League Baseball version of their research.

Easy to read, went 25-5 first 4 College Football Saturdays, Oct 4 2010
By Sports Investor - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Sports Investing: College Football Betting Systems (Paperback)
The results speak for themselves. Using the "Bet Against the Public" betting strategy, I went 25-5 in the first 4 weekends of college football. I'd recommend this book to anyone looking to make money at sports betting while having fun watching the games.
