I score pretty well on these except 3. Not that I haven't done a lot of that stuff in the past. IMHO handicapping is vastly overrated. None of the top handicappers significantly outperform what you could get by betting into the best numbers and best subsets, over and above what you would expect from a large sample, where the unlucky guys get weeded out early on.
A lot of the "sharp" sites sell picks, which leads to a natural bias.

Eh... Its like when you read about card counting in depth and thing "WTF? How am I ever going to beat that?" When in reality with the right games a decent Hilo count and the illustrious 18 will garner most of your dollarz.

Just keep working on it and you'll eventually get there.
