GOLDENGREEK's 2011 MLB SEASON LONG THREAD

[Santo4osu]

Bulls have been starting out hot in the 1st Half then dying off in the 2nd Half lately!

[postal warrior]

i can't believe this was a *20 pick i feel like an idiot.

If you had the Clippers the other night when they were up 35-19 in the first quarter you would have thought you were a genius. The Clippers ended up losing big. Relax....it's the NBA. Same thing happened in the Rockets vs Hornets game to. Rockets were up by 20 plus and lost.

Whatever 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.

You obviously have failed to grasp one of the key principles of gambling then. It matters very much how many games you play when you play giving juice or odds. Not wanting to start a flame war, but NO ONE can be long term winner playing more than six or seven bets (and units) per full card, and less is better. Anyone who plays two units on one game and 20 on another CAN NOT win long term. Unless the two unit plays are action plays and the normal bet is the so called 20 unit which really equates to one unit. Just saying what 40 years of gambling has taught me, or was taught to me along the way. Listen and learn, or not, your choice.

it's exactly like i thought it was going to be before i saw this thread, i am such a sucker.

they are down 2 points

[postal warrior]

they are down 2 points

Some people just shouldn't bet. This dude probably bet way more then he should have and is now going to sweat out every run each team makes.

I am new to this forum but have been following for the last couple weeks. I don't get why people read this forum, take the picks from cappers like GG, and then cry about it when some of picks don't work out...especially in the first damn qtr....really???

[face]

it's over dummy, magic can't defend or rebound

[face]

If Orlando covers I want you to tranfer me all your SBR points and never post in my thread again

[SamWise]

lol that face dude has some problems.....

[face]

ok sorry i was a dik this game was hard to watch, good luck sorry i trolled

[chevy6]

thanks for the input greek ...$$$$$$$$$ is the motive today people no negative talk you snooze you loose

[goldengreek]

Bulls shot 62.5 % in the first half and we are down 1
I think we are safe here ( crosses fingers )

[SamWise]

ok sorry i was a dik this game was hard to watch, good luck sorry i trolled

Face, please have some respect to the cappers here... They posted their plays not only for themselves but to help others. It was our choice to follow them or not. Clearly Chicago Bull was the Square play and they have the motivation for this game. However I tailed/capped this game for Orlando to win ATS because simply fading the public and Orlando has the talent to play well even without a one player. Good luck with you bets and Good luck with all of us. I am on the Mets with you. So go Mets and Orlando.

[face]

ok thanks goodluck.

[SamWise]

orlando need to take their time in shooting... they r making so much little mistakes.....

[infospy]

i wish the owner of the thread had a way to ban foolz like this guy.

You fail to grasp your own concept to winning at gambling. He's betting based on his system and it calls for multiple plays per day. The bet amount varies depending on the strength of those plays. All of what you say is anecdotal. I have my own experience. And you know what, gg is doing it right now. So take your theory and do shove it, because you're just jealous and don't like other people to win their way, but MAYBE win using your method?

[Santo4osu]

I tailed on all plays!!
Thanks for the post!

[artificial]

Any thoughts on the Over/Under Cincy?

[SamWise]

both of these guys are trying so damn hard today... love this kind of game. Orlando is doing good.... hopefully they keep it up..

Look, 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.

You have your points, seeing as most of them are axioms of betting or rather just investment rules in general; they're not platitudes per se because what you're getting at is very true when one is looking at the long term and not for the self-gratification of winning some quick cash.

The point here in my regard is that I have tracked his "big-time/10-20-unit/bombs" whathaveyou, and I think what's to be taken away here is that GoldenGreek may practically be seen as just another resource if one does not have the time to properly cap games, because I have logged a good-sized return on investment during my nearly two years of selectively flat-betting his high confidence/probability selections.

You keep speaking of the glaringly obvious pitfalls of sports investment, but, yeah this should already be known by one who risks their own money.

Greek continues to address your insinuating rhetoric dressed as qualms for those who probably wouldn't know any better, as it pertains to exactly what he's posted on this forum and that alone, but you just keep giving lectures (albeit correct ones) about the crashing-&-burning inevitable regression to the mean.

So what? You've given a base, shotgun response when you've "popped" in here. This has been a successful process for those that have prudently wagered on his top plays, whether your assumption of his time spent in capping is commensurate with what's acceptable.Reply to his responses to you or, indeed, just stay out of the thread.
