How can I use the Big Three of handicapping?

The most common use of the Big Three is as a filter. Personally, I need all three to align before I seriously consider a play. That reflects my conservative approach — I am deeply versed in both the positive and negative effects of variance in gambling.

If you are already interested in a particular game, pull up the breakdown. If any of the Big Three is pointing to the other side, filter the game out. If none of the three are present on either side, the decision falls to your own handicapping. The best scenario is when the Big Three lines up with your own read.

Most of my followers do some handicapping on their own. Many are extremely proficient at it.

The Big Three may look straightforward in presentation. It is not. What you are looking at is the product of extensive backtesting and years of real-time testing. You will not find a betting information breakdown anywhere that gives you a better head start at finding value — or saving you from losing it.
