Quoting Skyler: " I have followed and watched a ton of cappers over the years and it seems to me the most important thing in gambling is picking winners. (Consistent winners). Too often because of all the hype and BS Games of the Year/Decade and so on get in the way of the simple basic search for winners. We at NET PROFITS SPORTS look for qualified selections that meet our criteria and go with them. No hype no promotions. 3 winners and 2 losers for the week you know you have won 0.8 units. If you play all plays for 5 units (5.5 to win 5) you would have won 15 units and lost 11 for a 4.0 unit positive return.10 units double that to 8.0 net units. Our clients have shared with us many times how this is the most comfortable way they like to operate. Sure it may be more exciting to play two or three three your norm play on a game now and then but if the outcomes do not warrant the increase, why risk two or three winners and all the stress. "
