    Let's do that well-Justin 7

    Wiffle suggested this a few weeks back and I think it's a great idea. Let's get some good people to do wells-justin7, rsigley(most entertaining by far), thremp, tomg, etc. Let's also get some overconfident dumbasses to do wells also so we can have a nice laugh as they try to sound intelligent-lakerboy, paco, etc.

    Wiffle's thread got moved to Player's Talk without receiving any serious discussion.

    Hopefully wantitall4moi will step up. I decline the invitation.

    Justin7,

    Why was I not given a free copy of your book at the 2010 SBR Bash?

    What's it like being stalked by another user and having them create a blog about you on a daily basis?

    What's your favorite Polo brand shirt?

    Will you participate in a head to head tennis handicapping contest with me for 2,500 betpoints?

    have u received a lot of bullsh1t cos of ur book/videos? if so do u think it is because of too much info or people disagreeing with u?

    why did u recommend that sportsbook in ur book?

    for every 100 disputes what % do u think r because of cheating bookies not cheating gamblers?

    best posters in tank?
    worst losing streak, ever busto from gambling?

    and to end up with a good story - best payday?

    Subs,

    There are a few cliques that give me shit. Half the time, the say there is nothing good in the book. Half the time, I am accused of giving too much out. *shrug*

    At the time I published the book, BetUs was a good choice for a smaller player. It's still not bad, but not as high on my list for smaller players as back then. They deal dual lines based on the JM scam, but this doesn't really hurt winning players. A bigger deal was them voiding CP winners... but those are tougher to bet there now. I don't know of anyone getting screwed at BetUS for betting square/off-market numbers. In that regard, they are still good for smaller players, although any book that voided CP winners should be approached with caution.

    Every 100 disputes... 20 are sportsbooks in the wrong, 60 are clear player fraud, and 20 are poor communication between the book and the player. If I stopped taking complaints from anywhere east of Budapest, that 60 number would drop to 15.

    Worst losing streak... definitely me, and my 2005 MLB model. Never gone bust, or even close to it.

    Best payday... I forget.

    Is your name Lou?

    And you want 2000 picks for Tennis? It will take 10 years to make 2000 picks in tennis.

    can u talk about this - are the scammers just multi account whoring/limit circumvention, bots, or more sophisticated methods.

    any stories u are able to share about the more interesting cases? how they get caught etc?

    thanks

    -How can models possibly still win in football? There is knowledge of defensive and offensive game plans that simply can't be modeled. And I nearly die of laughter anytime I hear someone say they use yards per play as a predictive statistic.

    -Would you say you bet more 2nd halves or full game lines in the NFL? College?

    -Maybe I can finally get this question answered: Best programming language that I could learn enough about to be able to start building a model in 6 months? I'm not necessarily looking for the easiest one. I want the one that will best help me far down the road in future projects as well.

    -Vegetarian? IDK why, I just have a hunch.

    -Why is Cameron Diaz so hot after all these years?

    -How much do you bet per game on average?

    -How angry do you get when people use words like "let down, clutch, must win, bounce back" or "want it more" as handicapping jargon?

    -Do you often find yourself laughing at opening lines?

    -How could books possibly undervalue the Phillies this year? Last fukkin' team they should've(somehow) underestimated.

    -Is the penis size of sharps bigger than that of squares on average?
