Sports betting appeals to the smart bettor because it requires skill than rather than luck similar to live poker. If you leave your emotions out of your decisions and be very selective in your choices you can become a winning handicapper. Baseball season is one of the most profitable times for sports bettors because there are a large number of games to choose from each day. There are also a large number of underdogs that win which can present a profitable situation. Division leaders usually have a winning percentage between 550 and 600 which means that underdogs win about four out of every 10 games. When you bet the underdogs you can have a lower win percentage and still make money. The chart in this article will show you the figures.

I enjoy handicapping the baseball games and thought it would fun to list one of my picks each day. You can book mark this link or click on the Free Sports Pick from the main page of the site listed in the top left under the must read heading.
