The Method

My Process

Every pick is backed by data, discipline, and a system built over years of study.

Banks — founder of Banks Picks

The Origin

Who Is Banks?

Banks started betting recreationally and quickly realized that emotion-based picks were a losing game. The turning point came after building a spreadsheet system to track every bet — wins, losses, odds, and patterns.

What started as a personal discipline became a service when friends kept asking for the plays. Now thousands of subscribers get the same data-driven picks straight to their phones every day.

The mission is simple: cut through the noise, trust the numbers, and send you only the plays worth placing.

The System

How Every Pick Is Made

01

Line Shopping

Every play starts with comparing lines across multiple sportsbooks to find the best available odds before committing to a pick.

02

Injury & News Scan

Rosters, injury reports, weather, travel schedules, and coaching decisions are reviewed within 2 hours of game time.

03

Historical Matchup Data

Head-to-head records, home/away splits, ATS trends, and situational stats are pulled and weighted before any pick is finalized.

04

Value Threshold Filter

A pick only goes out if the expected value clears a minimum threshold. No play is sent just to fill a quota.

Bankroll Management

The Rules That Protect Your Bag

Following these rules is just as important as the pick itself.

Max Confidence

10% Unit

Reserved for the highest-confidence plays of the month. Rare — maybe 1–2 per month.

Standard Play

5% Unit

Standard strong play. Most winning bets fall in this tier. Consistent, disciplined sizing.

Value Play

3% Unit

Value plays and props where the edge exists but variance is higher. Smaller size, still worth taking.

“Never bet more than 10% of your total bankroll on any single play — no matter how confident you feel.”
