Pistons-Celtics Wednesday May 28th Free Selection

Going well over here at vegasturfandsports.com this past week. Our members have been treated to some nice wins, especially on the horse racing side. We had two nice winners at Hollywood Park over the long weekend. One on Friday night which paid $13.20 to win, and one on Monday which returned $12.20.

Tonight's game between the Pistons and Celtics looks very much like a play on the under with the total at 173.5. This series has grown in defensive intensity over the last couple of games and we see this game tonight as another slow, halfcourt battle with the focus on defense. Boston has regained home court advantage with their win in Detroit on Saturday and this is a must-win for them before heading back to Detroit for game 6. We have this game in the mid to low 160's. Recommendation: UNDER

Pistons-Celtics Under 173.5

Record: 57-33-3 (63.33%)-- Plus 22.45 Units

Baseball Free Selection For Saturday May 24th

Our members at vegasturfandsports.com have been doing well with our selections. We had a nice winner at Hollywood Park last night in the third race. The horse, Mikey Bones won and paid $13.20 to win. Our baseball selections at vegasturfandsports went 1-1 yesterday for a net unit loss of .10, not a bad day overall...

Today, Randy Johnson takes the mound against the Braves in Atlanta. The total is at 9 under $1.15 right now and we are taking the under here. The big lefty has been pitching well, especially on the road of late and the Braves have been struggling against left handers. Both teams have excellent bullpens and this should be a low-scoring affair.

Feel free to browse our site and check out the very affordable plans that we have for daily selections. We do not provide a large quantity of picks every day, but strive to win a high percentage of very select plays. We aim to provide an honest, high quality service to our members and we stress the word "service". We usually have at least 2 or 3 highly rated picks each day, sometimes only one, but that is the difference between us and most handicapping services. We aim for a high percentage of cashed tickets rather than a large volume of picks that hit at a much lower percentage.

Free Selection For Wednesday May 21st

We hit our game last night with the Mets-Braves second game staying under the total. We are plus 21.85 units since the beginning of 2008, with a record of 53-31-3 across the board.

Tonight, we are going with the under in the Phillies-Nationals game. These two teams are really struggling to score runs right now and we see that continuing tonight. Both teams have good bullpens if the starters get in trouble, combined with the low run production of late of both of these teams should keep it under the total of 9.5.

Phillies-Nationals Under 9.5 -1.10


Our Record: 53-31-3 (63.09%) Plus 21.85 Units

Handicapping Websites

Wow! After recently deciding to publish a site on the web to market my services, I have notice while checking out the competition, that most of these "handicapping" sites are just a ripoff. I have read reviews on the different cappers and their sites, and it seems that 85% of what I read was negative. Why go through the trouble of handicapping games if all you care about is marketing and B.S. to sell your picks? Hmmm..maybe that is the problem, some of these "handicappers" do not even bother to actually provide the service that they advertise, they just try to market their name or theme, and hope for the best as far as picking games or horses for their customers.

I have worked in a non-related industry in recent years. It is a service-based type of business in which you market your products and services to people and businesses, hoping to keep them as customers long term. Why go through the effort of getting customers, only to provide shoddy service, lose them and the income that they provide and have them leave unhappy and remorseful?

There are some sites out there that have a place for people to go in and post reviews. Why would you risk the chance of being labled a ripoff "service"?

Why not just provide the best possible service that you can at an affordable price and build a large clientele? I would rather have 200 happy customers at a low price than 20 unhappy customers at a ridiculous price who will just leave anyway and possibly spread the word about you online and by word of mouth.

All you can do is to try and put your best effort forth when handicapping. The customer should realize that the idea is to win money over the long run and not what happened yesterday or last week. I think that a handicapping service could have a long and profitable life in business if they just followed that theory instead of just trying to "get their money" and move on to the next "live one".

My site-www.vegasturfandsports.com, is still under construction, I will be concentrating on that over the coming weeks, but will still try to post a free selection here once in awhile.
