Even the most experienced handicappers can only claim a 60%-65% accuracy rate. In other words, expecting to place one bet and win big based on a handicapper’s pick is unrealistic. The real value of a handicapper’s services comes over the long run. Before placing your Football bets based on a good handicapper, it’s essential that you shop around various sportsbooks for the best lines. Even with a great handicapper, you’ll be betting from a huge statistical disadvantage if you’re working with a sportsbook with bad lines. This is especially important on key numbers like 3 and 7, margins that most games are won or lost by. The difference between a sportsbook with a line of 6.5 and another with 7 is huge.
