I don't think anyone here disputes the fact that shady things happen sometimes. I think unless you "know" then you will kill your bankroll and drive yourself crazy trying to figure it out. There are more pressing concerns that you can concretely know, like which jocks to never bet. Why? Becasue they prove time and time again they are terrible. There's the proof...replays.
