    You should have this thing wrapped up. It would take a miracle to blow your lead.

    The battle for the second boobie prize is alot tighter however. It should be interesting to see how that pans out.

    thats awesome turnip tryin to lose is the same as tryin to win and from the looks of it if it all ended today you'd have the highest unit total - even thought it is in the red. i gotta believe you started off tryin to win but somethin should be said for seeing an opportunity and makin it happen by isolating big favorites that lose. yeah you probably have it wrapped up but you can be sure that those guys at -10 are gonna be using 3 big faves which could make it interesting if they can get lucky. still if i was you iwould give it a couple days to see if you'll need to add onemore or not- your lead looks safe.

    ps : i think we could start hookin up some parlays and take over the world

    Yes, this is true.

    Most of my plays come in June or later, when I have a better square* opinion of teams. I figured I needed to make close to 60 plays to maximize any edge - though you are proving that's not necessary to win. Only by combining my square* plays, and selected stale lines, would I be able to approach 60 plays and make a run at winning the contest.

    But shit happens, I managed to start 4-10-0 -7.39 after the first week, and realized it was impossible to win the prize. So only then did I try to lose.

    So my initial intention was to win, but it's for the best. I am not interested in trying to win much at 5dimes, with the $500/online ticket. In fact, I currently have $0 there now. But 5dimes is a wonderful recreational book, and has the best soccer 1x2 lines of all the books still in the US market, though with understandably low limits. I am a losing soccer bettor always looking for an excuse to make a play. I can relate to some of our local forum degenerates in this way. So rest assured, whether $50 or $25 or $200, if I win something, 5dimes is almost certainly keeping it!

    Your record, mooncricket, is much more impressive considering I started out trying to win - good luck to you the rest of the way.

    * By square I mean actually trying to establish the probability that a team will win, as opposed to "sharply" beating the closing line.

    EDIT: Whew that looks like an autobiography, I should donate the $50 to whoever actually read that. I wonder what the professor has been talking about..
