F.A.Q

Who is the Captain?
The Captain has been a serious sports bettor for the last 8 years with his passion being College and NFL football. He began the system in 2009 using information from several sources as he was always trying to find an angle. In late 2009 he did.



How does the System Work?
Just like most handicappers I attempted to find many different ways to win games using simple math, basically stats from teams and trends for the match up. In my program (which is just a spreadsheet with formulas) I put in the numbers and hit enter (takes some time) then if the Magic number is hit, the program highlights the play. I don't make any personal plays on this. This is clearly evident in this years Bowls as I am a huge Michigan State fan and the system likes Alabama, so the play is Alabama.

Is every play the same amount?
Almost all of the plays are 1 unit plays.  There will be a few 2 unit plays during the regular season 10 week system. In 2010 there were 14 - 2 unit plays, going 8-6.

How much should I play?
All successful sports bettors have to have great Money Management. Do not bet more than you can afford. I recommend no more than 2-3% of  your bankroll per play. So if you have $2000 bankroll you will bet $44 to win $40 or max $66 to win $60 per 1 unit play. 2 unit plays would be double. The system averages between 10-11 plays per week so if you wager 2% on each 1 unit play you will have about 25% of your bankroll in play. I would never go over 35-40% of your bankroll in play in one day.

When do you release/post the plays?
 For the regular season most plays will be posted on Friday night or Saturday morning.  All plays will be using lines that are Widely Available (WA) at the time of posting. You can get all plays emailed to you by joining the Captains Crew.
For the Bowl Season it is best to check back daily to see a list of the days plays.


When does the system start?
The system runs from the second week of the NCAA/NFL Season for 10 weeks, and the entire Bowl Season. I am working on the system attempting to turn it into a 12 week system.

Why is it only 10 weeks?
Update it is now a 12 week system

Do you do other sports?
Although I do bet on other sports, I do not handicap them. This system takes up to much time as it is. My other favorite is College Basketball.


What does it cost?
Special right now $75 for the rest of the NCAA/NFL Football season, including Bowls.
