Welcome Everybody. Who I am, and What this page is about.
Hi Everybody. Welcome to the group. This group is a group dedicated to talking about sports gambling and sports in general. I don't know about you but the mainstream sports networks have really watered down sports for one reason or another. I have my own beliefs on why that is, but you'll have your own opinions about that. I want this skool community to have a more real view on sports and what's happening in sports right now. From games, to news to gambling and everything in between. This is the first thing I've made about sharing my sports thoughts. If people are interested in it, I will make other social sites about it. A little bit about me. My name is Justin & for the past 9 years now I ran 4 different sports consulting agencies. My agencies have made well over 7 figures during that time. I recently stopped running the agency for two reasons. One. I didn't like the headaches of it anymore, with clients and the time it took to produce results. When I first started it was exciting for me and a way to make money. Now, I just don't feel the need for it, nor do I want the money. And two, I don't like any of the sports programs that are going nowadays, always political and it's not about sports. I'd like to share my lessons and skills I've learned in sports gambling during that time, and discuss trends a topics about on going sports events. Everybody's opinions are welcomed. I'd like to make a community that talks about sports, and is more REAL about it. Hopefully, this skool community can be one that is respectful of others, a place to have fun and discuss sports that we all like. And I hope you can learn from my mistakes on sports betting aspects that may help you in the future. Thank you, and nice to meet everybody!

4/19 Heat vs Bulls
The Heat are sitting as a -1.5 point favorite tonight against the Bulls for the play-in game. I believe there's a spot for a play on the Heat tonight. With Jimmy Butler not playing, the Bulls seem to be getting all the public money. But understand, the Heat are a bit different than most teams that miss star players. First off, when we look at gambling on games like this, the Heat are extremely well coached. A significant edge in coaching, not to mention a very good home court advantage. Bulls are coming off a win against the Hawks that've struggling all year. The win looks better than it is. If you look historically at the Heat record with one star missing, going back all the way to 2016, they're covering at a significantly better clip than most of the league. This point spread, should be at a -2.5, -3 points, not -1.5 tonight. I believe there is an edge to be had on the Heat tonight.

UFC 300 & the impact of UFC 301
First. The UFC really has a good product. Just as a fan, I watched the entire show. From Figgy vs Cody to Alex vs Hill. It was spectacular. Obviously, the big winner was Max. Just crazy what he accomplished in the final seconds, much less the full fight where he was in control the whole way. It seems like Ilia vs Max is obviously next, leaving Volk on the sidelines for a bit longer. Which could honestly be a blessing in disguise for Volk. But the fight that I feel people aren't talking about as much is the Jiri fight. To come back in that fight, after being knocked out my Alex, and people writing Jiri off after the shoulder surgery is nothing less than spectacular. With that being said. Have you guys taken a look at UFC 301's card. It's shit. It's bad. It's a fight night at best. With a stack card like 300, its natural for the next card to not be as good, but it's really horrible. A little part of me likes that 301 is in Brazil. Reason being? When Glover retired, nobody cared and they just left the arena. He was a legend in the sport, and it came off as disrespectful from the crowd. Gamblers POV: When fighters are going up in weight, and they have ample time to put on the right weight, it seems to workout more often. People point to the Dustin vs Max fight, but remember, that was in short notice. Same with Volk vs Islam 2. When Volk had time to prepare, yes he lost the fight but, he was more capable and wasn't the "smaller man" in there. Had just as much power as Islam. Might be something to lookout for in the future.

The New NBA Playoff Format
For me, the new NBA format seems like a money grab from the NBA. It's not really about the fan experience, it's about the money. I remember a time when sports leagues would tailor the product to the fans, but it doesn't seem to be the case anymore Do we really care about the 10th seed playing the 11th seed? For goodness sake, there's only 15 teams in each conference. The reality is, it's just a way for the NBA to grab more money. I understand that gamblers want/need more games to bet on, but do the fan really care? I don't. I don't even watch the games as much anymore. Seems very watered down GAMBLERS POV: When I used to run my agencies, I would see certain trends for those play in games. Often times star players who've been previously injured would play those games and make the lines a bit more skewed. Bottom line, star players don't care about the play in games. I wouldn't look too much into it. Also, I saw a big trend of the winner of 10 vs 11 winning the final play in games vs the loser of the 9 vs 8 more times than not.
