Plans for LVASports We've gone around on this several ways and almost pulled the trigger on several different models, including no model at all. Ultimately, though, we decided that the model we already have is the one that's right, even if we haven't always executed it perfectly. As of today, we're working toward that goal.
First things first -- Fezzik is no longer a part of LVASports. He's still a good friend of mine and will always be welcome to post here, but he's now working with pregame.com. I was initially disappointed by his decision to leave LVASports for pregame, but as self-serving as this may sound, I think it's one of the best things that could have happened to this site. I've steadfastly stated from inception that LVASports is not a picks site. But Fezzik's style was at odds with that. Several customers came here only to get his posted plays and when they didn't go well, which unfortunately was often, it undermined the whole idea. From this point forward, we're going toutless.
As was originally planned, the focus of LVASports will be disseminating LVA-style value and how-to information in the same accessible and troll-intolerant atmosphere. The lead moderator will be FrankB, who's been contributing some of the absolute best information to these boards since way back when they began as FezziksPlace. Frank is one of the most knowledgeable and successful sports bettors in the business, as anyone who really understands this area of gambling will attest. He's prepared to share his insight and methods exclusively here. Both Frank and I have invited other players whom we respect to participate on the boards. It's a smaller group than what we initially had, but a much more concentrated one that makes more sense for what we're doing.
We have some new things planned that we'll begin to introduce right away. One of them is an NFL contest only for LVASports members that will mimic the SuperContest. But I don't want to mask the fact that this site will be primarily about finding and exploiting opportunities, as well as bolstering your overall game. Will there be picks? Of course there will. Posters like LARRYK and rickj will continue to post along with others, and that will be an important part of the whole product, but it won't be the focus. The focus will be profiting from betting sports.
Pricing will remain $24.95 per month and we're changing the full-year rate to a half-year for $99, providing a less-costly investment to check out the new effort fully that will take you through the Super Bowl. The fee allows us to keep our exclusivity and enforce our civility. I know what's coming, and can state confidently that the value of the information will exceed your outlay many times over. I'm looking forward to working with all of you again.
