About Doc's Sports

My Handicapping and Betting Philosophy
Oddsmakers set lines to balance the action, so in reality we're often handicapping against the general public's perception and the general public seldom wins long-term.
My Handicapping Experience
36 years handicapping experience.
My Special Achievments in Handicapping
Big Ten Specialist: Won my Big Ten Game of the Year 19 years in a row and would consistently move the line seven points.2006 - $100,000 Leroy’s Money Talks Handicapping Runner-up.
My Most Memorable Moment
1999 Kentucky Derby - Charismatic won the derby despite long odds. We also gave this horse out to our customers and they collected big.
Biggest Win of my Career
Our College Basketball Big Ten Game of the Year. The game featured Purdue laying a field goal over Illinois. Purdue dominated the game from start to finish pulling out of a 25-4 lead and Illinois never got below a double-digit deficit. This was the strongest college basketball play that we released and it was everything that we could have hoped for. Purdue won the game by a score of 64-47 and easily covered the spread.
Toughest Loss of my Career
Our College Bowl Game of the Year that featured Miami –3 ½ over Nevada. We felt that the Canes would be determined to save coach Coker, but the offense was only able to put 21 points on the board. Miami won the game, but it was only by one point and thus did not cover the spread. They should have had a double-digit victory, yet the Miami offense could not hold up its end and the loss ultimately cost coach Coker his job.
Favorite Team(s) to Play or Fade
Michigan. You always get a hard-nosed running attack with a solid defense that will not beat themselves.
What You Can Expect From Me
Experience speaks for itself and few cappers can tout 36 years of experience. My accomplishments speak for themselves and we have stood the test of time. I have experienced numerous ups and downs, but winning is what this is all about and that is why my clients keep coming back year after year.
“The sportsbooks and oddsmakers have to handicap and set lines for every game - we simply find a few of their mistakes."
