Whats your method?

Ok I thought this would be a good place to get a thread going about the ways we look for winners. Do you only stick to one sport? Do you use a website and look at the matchups? Do you flip a coin? Or do you have another method not mentioned above?
I hope this becomes a thread with many replies and a place we and people new to sports betting can learn and bounce ideas off each other, so we can all be in the money and as successful as Frank Rosenthal

I tend to look at match ups. If team 'A' get more runs, points, what ever and they are scored on less against compared to team 'B' Then I will be looking to back team 'A' I will also make sure team 'A' doesn’t have any star players out for that game. If team 'A' does have a star player out and the stats are close to team 'B' then I might back team 'B' or if I am unsure then I will skip that game and look for a better and clearer cut winner to wager on.
Money management I believe is key to staying in the business and being ahead in the long run. I will only ever wager 5% max of my bank roll on any one game. As an example I lost 2 won 2 this weekend on the MLS but I still came out in front.

I hope this helps some of you out there. If anyone has any suggestions for my style I would be happy to hear from you.

When all else fails, I simulate a game in madden 3 times, and bet on the team that wins 2 out of 3

Whatever jerkoff

Don't make up BS about me, not updating my record or keeping it accurate.

I don't do it to have my "ass kissed" I do it mainly for my own recording purposes and for when I apply for a postion as a sportsBookmaker.
