What’s it all about?

There are 4 college buddies who decide to become small-time bookmakers. These fellas set about building a small empire of punters – based on their very different and unique skill sets. They make use of hi-tech computer wizardry and take bet after bet as they cash in on sports betting. But all is not well in Wonderland because these small-time bookies soon find themselves encroaching into the world of organized crime territory where feared mobsters are running the show. It’s a game of new vs. old and the clash of characters is jarring and at times 100% fearsome. There are tales of absolute heartbreak in the film as character’s lives are torn apart by gambling. And with a bloody murder trail to follow, Detective Brunner is the one who pieces it all together.

Even Money is a superb sportsbetting flick and it features prominently on movie goers favourites. This film is a tribute to the acting genius of its stars and its director Mark Rydell. In spite of the film’s negligible box-office takings of $112,000 – it’s a whole lot better than the numbers indicate. Perhaps a money line bet on this flick should have been made?

Another stellar title includes Bookies. This is on par with the very best of them and it revolves around the burgeoning problem of sportsbetting in colleges across the USA. It is a masterpiece that has been substantially underrated by many in the film community. It tracks the exploits of three pals who become low-level bookies. Not only do their money bets increase to a great degree but the flick also introduces viewers to the inner-workings of the sports and the adrenaline-loaded thrills of the action-packed games. The film really gets to the heart of what it’s like to punt with the best of them. It matches ability and desire as the stakes increase and the profits come rolling in. The film also introduces the mafia elements – who actually have a stake in the sportsbetting that is taking place. Imagine all of this perfectly blended into a super film starring the talented Lukas Haas (of Witness fame) and Rachael Leigh Cook. Two thumbs up for a fine slice of filmmaking.

Another film that I’m going to review in forthcoming blog posts is Eight Men Out. This film tracks match-fixing – something that is increasingly on the decline, but always relevant. It’s a super film and even though it covers events of old, there is tremendous relevance in its storyline.

• Let it Ride with comic genius Richard Dreyfuss
• The Color of Money – with Paul Newman and Tom Cruise
• The Air I Breathe – with Kevin Bacon
• The Story of Sea Biscuit – with Shirley Temple and Barry Fitzgerald
• Dreamer – with Kurt Russell and Dakota Fanning

These are some of the finer flicks on my particular favourite – horseracing. These are more than tales on punting and winning, they parallels on the challenges we face and overcome in love and life. Of course if you’re going to widen the arc then there are so many sportsbetting type movies that you be dazed by the variety. One of my favourite male action stars is The Rock – Dwayne Johnson. If you’ve not seen his football comedy flick – ‘The Game Plan’ – you’re missing out. This ranks up there with Adam Sandler’s ‘The Longest Yard.’ For fans of cricket, there’s the story of captain corrupt – Hansie Cronje – in the movie ‘Hansie.’ Indeed the more we dig, the more we unearth. One thing’s for sure, the action on the track is far superior to anything

Sports betting tips

Follow Winning Form- when looking to choose opponents to bet on follows winning form before your own judgment. Look for opponents and teams that have won their last few events and bet on these to keep on their run of success. At the same time as form upsets can and do happen, betting on usual losers to come good will never make you a long-term gains.

Shop around for odds- before marked any bet, shop around to see which online companies or betting exchange has the better odds. Having numerous accounts open with different online sites will allow you to take the best odds available once you find them.

Money Management- it is never a good idea to spend above 10% of your bankroll on any player and in most cases you would do good to avoid betting above 5% on a single event. There will always be more winners in the future to earn from, but if spend the whole set on a losing selection, you would not have the incomes necessary to profit from them.

Make your own decisions- there are hundreds of tipsters out there who will happily give you choices in return for your hard earned money, but most clever people can make their own decisions and get just as good outcomes. Learn the sport you are interested in betting on until you know it very well, the place your facts to work to classify who you think has the good chance of winning a specific event. You will never be100% of the time but neither is tipsters and your decision is free!
