EXACTLY some cappers on this site like GG are good RESOURCES. No one is pressing the "place bet" button but yourself.

#702I've been following this guy for a while. He has made me more money than he has lost. The last week he increased my bankroll x5!
That being said, I was very selective of his plays today. I knew he was due for an off day.
I don't play over/unders and I don't play any of his plays that are under a 5*. After that, I mainly play the plays of his I like. First I make the selections I like then compare them with what he has, if he has the other side I usually lay off.
As of today I have only made four MLB bets.

No one should ever blindly follow all of someones picks but GG is a great resource for helping out others. He is the best NBA capper on this site but I'm not sure about his baseball picks yet although he has started off extremely hot.
I probably did get lucky the day he went 10-0 when I played 9 games and hit a few parlays. The only reason I bet so many games that day was because I was excited about baseball starting and I missed most of the opening weekend series because I was out of town on vacation and didn't want to spend that time gambling.
Either way, I think you're in great shape following this guy.i use GG as a double check reference to my leans.

#703Hard to use someone as a reference point or resource when they are on nearly every game. The only reliable resources I use are those hitting 58-60% and averaging 1 or 2 plays a day. There are a handful of them on here, Covers and elsewhere - they are hard to find but worth the research.
I've seen countless people like GG come and go, usually turning tout after a hot streak, or else fading into obscurity when people realise you can't make money being an action junkie - not that there's anything wrong with action mind you, I will have small plays on many games during the day to keep me interested, but expect them only to be 50/50 propositions.Comment -

#704Whatever man. What does it matter how many games he plays per day. It is the percentage that matters, and seems like he is doing well. Basketball has been smoking hot for him. And the start of baseball season sees him doing well too. GG is not like other people. Just like you are not like other people.Comment -

Ive been posting on internet forums for 6-7 years.
I have had offers to turn tout by some big name people ( services ) in the past... multiple times, and have turned them down.
I had a 2 year stretch a while back were my "top rated " plays ( 10* and 20*'s ) went 97-39
I had scumbags coming out of the woodwork to work for them and their sites
You are accusing me of this because I started the baseball season hot ?? Did you want me to lose on purpose ?
I started hot , ppl noticed and it has become an active thread
Can you find one post were I tout myself or claim unrealistic bullshit
If anything I have been telling people that Im due to lose, play withing their means and be cautious
So dont compare me to other cappers that have gone tout or tell me that I cant win
I have been gambling 20 yrs. I have taken my lumps and had some amazing runs. I dont need your bullshit critiqueLast edited by goldengreek; 04-09-11, 10:01 PM.Comment -

I have been hitting 58- 60 % in the NBA for the entire year !!!
So take you theories of probablilities , roll them into a ball, turn is sideways , and stick it straight up your candy ass ( The Rock )

#707Came here to see what the fuss is about, and find another capper playing way too many games, who will be lucky to hit better than 50/50 longer term. One hot day makes people celebrities on this forum apparently.
Why do intelligent people fall for this so often? You really think some guy on SBR can beat the books over such a large number of games a day? Sounds like another LGO type character, destined to burn your bankroll when things turn sour.
Why dont you check all my posts / threads from last year in baseball
I guarentee you I finished up over 250 units for the year.. thats for the year chief.. not one hot day
This year in the NBA im about 130 games over .500 / Been killing the NBA all year not the last 2 days

#710I hate haters. I knew Greek's great run this week was going to bring them out of the woodwork....they lurk the board for success and slowly make their way in like a bunch of zombies. Totally destroys the good vibe in here. Keep up the good work GG, you're doing a hell of a job despite what some of these low life bastards say.Comment -

#715How quickly they forget.Weren't you just 10-0 a couple days ago,but today 3-11-but again,you even gave a warning after the 10-0 that it may be coming so shouldn't be many/any complaints-so think no need to reply to them-as you say your past record stands up. Trouble with me is, I try to pick and choose your picks that I agree with-which of course more often than not wind up being the only losers you have.And after such a bad day,a good,back to normal day should follow-hopefully-so good luck tomorrow.Comment -

That's probably why he makes so many bets, he's not capping every game he bets on, he's playing the system. That's why he's killing it two weeks before playoffs, he knows what to look for.
I've learned so much from this guy, leave him alone. If you don't agree with his plays, just don't do it.
Keep it up GG, you're a hero around here.Comment -

#723There should be a way to put a password on your thread so these fuckin hating losers who have no lives cant come in here to talk $hit. If you do not like the picks dont play them and if you do not like the thread or what GG does then GET THE FCUK OUT OF THE THREAD! simple as that. This forum has a bunch of infantile losers on it that have nothing better to do but come out of the woodworks when someone dosnt have a perfect day and stir up trouble.GROW THE FCUK UP. Are you that sad and pathetic in your real life that you have to $hit on people and put people down on the internet???! All you know it alls why dont you have your own threads with winning % do you can show us all how it is done????? Ill tell you why, because you are FCUKING losers, until you can prove your a great capper yourself then dont come in here or anyone elses thread and talk $hit. We are supposed to be helping eachother WIN FCUKING MONEY not talk $hit about eachother jesus fcuking christ already. Anyway good luck sunday GG!!Comment -

#726Look, I'm no "hater" (aside: since when did challenging someone mean you are a "hater", are we running some sort of Orwellian style groupthink gathering here?), but GG has all the earmarks of a classic tout:
e.g.
10* style plays
No documented yearly record, only recent "streaks"
Playing WAY too many games (hint: to cap a game properly takes probably 1-2 hours, so unless GG doesn't sleep he is not capping games properly)
I occasionally pop into these type of threads to see what is going on, and to perhaps add an alternative voice to other discerning people, or people new to sports betting, following this stuff. In my opinion - which last time I checked is not yet grounds for a fatwa or declaration of anathema - this guy will hit no better than 50/50 long term and will eat you up in juice. This is a necessary conclusion from an efficient market such as sports betting, which has at best fleeting imperfections, and relies on situational, macro analysis to gain any edge - a time consuming, and tricky analysis endeavour. I personally don't have the time to do this as I have a full time job and like to keep my betting social - but I've spent the time finding people who do take this time.
But carry on now, I'll stay out of this thread, don't worry. Good luck people tailing GG - you'll need it.Comment -
