Eye On Gambling (EOG) is delighted to report that Russ Culver has agreed to provide EOG with exclusive, free sports betting
content. Under the arrangement, Culver will post sports gambling insight and tips including, but not limited to, picks throughout
baseball season, and, ideally, he will extend into football as well.
I'sm impressed with the website, and I believe that building traffic with strong handicapping information while obtaining revenue from advertisers is the business model that works best
for me, Culver says. Readers should not have to pay for info or picks.
The baseball season is a natural starting point, since it is Culver'ss favorite sport. Baseball offers many more sports betting opportunities than football, Culver says. Although the MLB
season has just started, teams have already played more games than the NFL schedule.
Culver boasts an illustrious career as a bookmaker, oddsmaker and bettor. His résumé reflects sports-betting chops to kill for, and essentially speaks for itself. It is available here.
During his tenure in Vegas with positions at leading sports-betting companies, Culver was a familiar figure on radio shows, football contests, as a host on Internet handicapping forums
and sports-betting seminars, and his analysis and picks were often mentioned in the local newspapers.
With the pragmatic approach of a professional for whom the numbers are the key, Culver doesn'st necessarily like or dislike any team until he'ss scrutinized all the handicapping data and
reached a decision.
That decision is generally based on the use of power ratings. Contrary to popular misconception, power ratings are not simply objective measurements, he stresses, but subjective tools for
determining relative strengths and weaknesses. Implementing and weighting the elements of a power-ratings system is very judgmental.
Handicapping is not a discipline for bettors who seek an easy way to find winning plays. Devising effective power ratings is a labor-intensive project. Culver starts fresh every year,
throwing out history that isn'st applicable.
Culver makes power ratings on all teams on which he bets, and when he finds a discrepancy between his assessment of a game and the oddsmaker'ss, then he has a potential play.
It'ss all a numbers game, he says. It'ss my numbers vs. the oddsmaker'ss.
