Null, where do you come up with these plays and handicapping in these obscure games? Do you have a "professional handicapper" or is it your own research?
Also, what websites are good in finding the latest trends, such as how a certain team does ATS. I remember I had one bookmarked in my laptop but my friend has formatted it and borrowed it somewhere in Chicago. What are some useful websites for line movements, injury reports, weather conditions, and trends. The only one I use is donbest.com. What are some other good websites for ATS trends? I am fairly new to this section of the forum so a bio by null would also be appreciated.

Since college basketball is my favorite sport to bet on, I decided to go the full nine this year, and post my plays. I also bought some books. The one I go to for info on obscure schools is the The Blue Ribbon 2005 College Basketball Yearbook. It's not gambling specific, it has info on all div 1 schools and is used by the media, coaches, etc. I also have some other sports gambling books.
To handicap games I use covers.com matchup pages alot, also blue ribbon, game notes, sports forums, a few other sites. Some of my plays I get from other forums posters but most I come up with myself.
Good sites for handicapping college basketball:
http://www.covers.com/sports/ncb/ncb_main.aspx
-also see matchup and team pages, check this and Donbest for injuries
http://tbeck.freeshell.org/bb/basketball.html
-Various power ratings tracked ATS
http://www.statfox.com/cbb/
-more matchup pages, lots of trends, although I'm not big on trends unless there's some reasoning behind them
http://www.cstv.com/teams/m-baskbl/s...-day-main.html
-often the best place to get updated scores on obscure schools if they have a gametracker for the game
http://www.donbest.com/website/html/...cbk/main.shtml
-scoreboard and injuries pages, trust the scores on a gambling site over the scores on yahoo (although they often seem to have the same feed)
Game notes for every game are available as PDFs on pretty much every school's men's basketball home page, they're prepared for the media and have lots of info (just keep in mind the source, they usually don't have much negative about the team)
