Finally after a very long MLB season:), NCAA FB is just 3 weeks away. NFL Pre-Season has started, and I may have a few plays in the pre season.
My transition over to Discord is complete, and now it will be the book keeping as we approach the beginning of College football to restrict access to subscribers only.
MLB was free for a number of reasons. When ever I switch to a new data base I do not charge for the season. This has never occurred before, as I have been using the same database since I started handicapping MLB. But this season the company I used went out of business, so I had to scramble for the data I needed.
This is no small task. Though there are many companies that sell data, finding the reliable ones is like finding a needle in a haystack. I will not bore you with all the considerations involved, but there are many.
In any event MLB has been as usual a grueling season. This one being no exception. For the first time it looks like the overnight plays are not going to show a profit. Whether this is because of the new database or something else I will have to figure out during the off season. I already am exploring other options for databases for the next season.
The good news for Overnight MLB is that they are beating the closing line at a 72.77 % rate. That is a solid beat. That means 72.77% of the time the wager you make will be better than what you can get when the line closes.( game time). The avg amount is .0893 which is a healthy difference.
This is based upon 198 overnight Sides this season. But even with this , we are -17.33 units on the over night sides. We had one nice rally up, about 8 units, but it has been a pretty steady negative drain for the season. Our same day totals, that used to be a bedrock, last season let us down, and this season is -2.80 units with only 13 plays. So far there is no reason to believe that these will turnaround and start producing positive results soon.
MLB remains Free until 8/24/2024. A few days before that date I will start changing out both the email list and the slack and discord channels to only be available to subscribers.
For those of you whose subscription was paused, you will start up right where you left off. I will send you an email if that includes you with the dates. For the rest the way to subscribe will be through the website rickjshandicappingpicks.com using the paypal dropdown menu. All subscriptions have a 3 day free trial. Subscribers typically take the 49.00 monthly subscription which includes:
- All plays for all sports active during the subscription period
- Access to Discord and the message subheadings. This has the plays along with active discussions on a variety of topics
- Add on to the email list where plays are sent to in addition to the Discord postings
- Access to RickJInvest discord channel that include daily commentary and most of my trades. Along with a description of how I approach the markets.
- The market posts typically contain charts, along with comments, and over the weekend , news that i consider important for the upcoming week.
I have been posting my plays no online for over 20 years on rickjshandicappingpicks.com. I do not advertise, my subscriber base is word of mouth. I have had subscribers that have been with me since I started.
My site is much different than others, as mine is all inclusive, and there is no large fee to pay up front, but a small monthly subscription that can be cancelled at the end of the monthly period. Most sports you pay up front for the season, it includes one sport, so when you are finished the cost can run well into several thousand dollars.
I will match my results up with any site out there.
If you have any questions, feel free to email me at rickj@rickjshandicappingpicks.com. That is the best way to get through to me.
So, for the next few weeks the site will remain free, and then I will transition back to the subscription service in time for college football.
Hope to see you join us for a fun football season.
