[QUOTE="juris klavins, post: 4852774, member: 76693"]Judging by your avatar, I'm guessing you're well versed in thoroughbred horse racing and, by association, also an astute handicapper. In my 45+ years playing the ponies, I've embraced Mark Cramer's concept of the informed minority vs. the public consensus of 'experts'. An “informed minority” is a public handicapper of proven skills who picks a horse that no other public handicapper within the consensus has picked - that would be your one dentist vs. the two popular expert dentists. This idea can work when handicapping horse races, but in numismatics, the consensus of experts is usually the way to bet :smuggrin: For anyone interested in reading more about the informed minority vs. 'groupthink', please follow this link to Mark Cramer's article in American Turf Monthly: [URL]https://www.americanturf.com/current/automatic.cfm[/URL][/QUOTE]
