XKGB's HOCKEY THREAD

KGB...FACK him....

Pay no mind to that fool...he will go away when people will stop paying attention to him..
or completely ignore him. Thats the best way...TRUST ME.

His name "Villain" says it all. He's probably 3rd oldest in a 7 child family. No one ever paid any attention
to him when he was kid. He's probably below average looking with an IQ of 72. He did not get laid until he
was 28...and most likely blew his load the first time his next door neighbor felt sorry for him and put her
hand on his lap. Taking underdogs and going against the grain in general is the only way he knows how to
get people to notice him. By answering him or getting mad at him makes him feel powerfull and important
in front of his imaginary friends.

LET HIM BE.

dont worry man. shit happens.... just take a break and we'll be ready to go 10-0 again !!


these late seasons can be lethal..

[mike-dub]

tough day for everyone, phoenix just didnt show up today. consider canucks for tomorrow. schneider (and dubnyk)is in net and although this game is meaningless points-wise since oilers are out and canucks are locked in, its meaningful for schneider to continue to prove himself going into the postseason and for possible trade value after the playoffs.plus schneider's already got two wins over them as well.

[xkgb]

dont worry man. shit happens.... just take a break and we'll be ready to go 10-0 again !!

I am soooooo stupid for getting greedy and chasing....WHAT WAS I TRYING TO CHASE? the parlay would have broken me even, and I had Absolutely no insurance covering me in case this happened. ITS like I was in denial phoenix could not lose tonight...how pathetic of me...the money hurts, and I dunno if I should start playing small, taking multitude of parlays, or build my bankroll by putting more on a single bet and build the bank that way? Im feeling more comfortable taking 5 different twenty dollar parlays then one$ 100 play...anyone with ideas on how to build bankroll the SAFEST WAY? I am so depressed tonight, I don't think ill b able to sleep....just blew my whole paycheck in one night on one fuming team...I HOPE PHOENIXES PLANE ******* CRASHES INTO RED WINGS PLANE...GRRRR

[DennisGreen]

Sorry for your tough night man. Chasing kills bankrolls and that's why all the bookies continue to stay in business. It's tough not to chase though, I still do it from time to time. I've gone from 2k to 0 in one night making stupid chase bets before. Not a good feeling when you wake up the next morning to a $0 bankroll

It's tough but you gotta stay disciplined and try not to lose your cool or go too big on any one play. You gotta be able to accept a losing night to be a successful long term capper. I used to chase nightly until I was up on the day or broke. Not a recommended strategy Just stick with your parlays and I'd suggest flat betting (same unit size on each bet) at least until you get your roll back up again. Doing this has been good to me when I'm on tilt and just flushing my money down the drain. It gets you off tilt eventually. You are still way up though so don't worry too much, just a minor set back.

Thx for prompt response ...I need to not get rash and start betting crazy with the money I saved from this long and fortunate run I had...im going to play a number of very small, maybe 20-25 dollar parlays trying to hit for a respectable amount....betting big on one game will eventually cut in to your bank...and chasing is out of questions. I am going to post my parlays for tomorrow, scaling quite a bit down from my usual$ 100 to$25 a parlay, and taking 3-4 plays minimum...well see where it takes me before the start of the postseason...Thx fellas...First seriously losing night in some time, hopefully the last for some time to come...

[Boxing Champ]

KGB...If you were gonna play straight up..What would be your best couple of plays???

[Pete0]

Sorry couldnt reply to u last night, i fell asleep


I personally think that playing too many parlays is not really the safest thing to do at this point. Its just 1 lock loss, and after that incredible record you have it shouldn really matter, unless the stake size has a huge difference. if you're progressively increasing ur stake size (drastically) then when u have a losing day on 1 single game, its bound to be a very bad day. We're all humans and we're all guilty of chasing/being greedy when we see other plays go down, but I think that its not really safe to "contaminate" the potential of a lock (win/loss) by parlaying it with a lean. It would put us at way further risk. I mean now you have to win something that your not confident enough to "lock" it , before u have the chance to win a good sum on ur actual lock. to what has been happening since a few days we're all hoping to just break even becuz some lean ****** up ? lol . and when u lay down several of these, small bets accumulate to a large chunk. I think we should do what we did until few weeks ago and how it worked out for us . We play mostly straight wagers on locks and a small parlay everyday if there is more than 1 lock (parlaying all locks for a sweeter payday). Leans shouldnt really matter even if u go 0-5 on leans. i think we should do crazy 6 team or several 2-3 teams parlay on on LEANS only and have their stake size as maybe 10 % of a lock wager. so leans and locks are seperate wagers and never mix up .

Anyways, I only wish you luck on whatever route you take man ..

We'll all be rooting for you !!

[gambler CK]

TB moneyline is my favorite play today

[Legend65]

Liking your picks XKGB...parlayed BOS (ML) / NJ (ML) / NYI (OVER)

[nicolaitanghoj]

Im just playing your 3 locks separate today BOL to you.

[nicolaitanghoj]

I agree with Pete. I am only playing 4-5% of my bankroll on each of you lock everyday.. When i increase my BR with 50% i raise my stakes..
When i cam you only played single bets, but then you started playing parlay.. That was good at first, but there is a reason that you get so high payback on parlays, cause they are so damn difficult to hit..
I think you should focus more on single bets and get some rules to stick to about how to manage your BR

Phoenix nhl ml Loser

Portland -3 Winner
Creigton +3 Winner

Hope you got some back on those two late plays. Its not even worth playing those heavy favorites unless its like the Canucks or something like that. Play some better value plays like today you have the devils ml Toronto ml and capitals ml. You keep playing these heavy favorites, there going to break you. gl man and look forward to your plays.

[xkgb]

I hear wat u guys saying...only I feel that if I play a few parlays, I have a better chance of getting stack deeper quicker then I do betting bigger. ..I thought it through and decided to go with this format; by posting leans on pretty much any game you have a good read into, and putting them in the order of strength, gives a lot of ppl options to decide for themselves what play or which game they feel they have the best chance of winning in...I think u guys will warm up to this, and find this way to be more beneficial...For instance today u can tell that I like Boston ml as my STRONGER lock...isles over 2nd, etc. Anyways, wish me luck today, im getting this roll going by hitting them ALL tonight...HAHA

[gambler CK]

TB ML is my favorite play today EDIT: already posted this haha

[ColdBeerHere]

TB ML is my favorite play today

wow, interesting....I was going to say out of all the picks, TB is one of them that I didn't care much for.....Seems like that team just hasn't taken the bull by the horns yet, and has been very inconsistent....
They also have a playoff spot locked up, so what do they really have to play for ?

just my 2 cents

[xkgb]

thats teh way to go !!!

Aaaaand WE ARE GO!!!!!!

Can you please refrain from this type of posting. If you disagree state it in a classy way. XKGB is betting real money and does not need negativity from a person who is acting emotionally 12.
