but if his winner is 150-1 take away the 9 losers that's 141 points profit
it's about making money we all bet different amounts as long as we win who cares

nobody here cares about his remarks, thats been proven already
if he doesnt like it, why is he here?
he SURE isnt gonna change anybody's opinions about me or the way I and most others here choose to gambleComment -
Yeah that's another thing ive seen with him, he always makes out like the Winning Driver he picks was the one he had the most money on, BS. Listen I don't regret anything ive said, but he was right about 1 thing, it would have been better if I just emailed him instead of putting him on Blast Here, with all his Groupies here, its a waste of my time to keep responding. You guys carry on with business as usual around here, GL in your future endeavors.

i rarely EVER say who i have the most money on..AGAIN nice try but no dice...yet another CD fabrication..1 of many today
it doesnt matter cause my system it doesnt usually matter who wins unless its a big lonhsgot...its all around the same and doesnt usually matter to me
try telling the truth CD u r making urself look like a complete moron
these guys are actually here every week and know what i say and when i say it
not sure they like being called groupies
Comment -
thank god, lets see if he can tell the truth about LEAVING for good
no1 will miss him cause hes never here anywaysComment -
You just cant shut up can you, you're the Biggest Pinocchio here Mike, just keep exaggerating, these guys will eventually see thru your BS, a lot in the past month already have. & to be clear this is a public forum, you not making me leave, i'll post my thoughts when ever I feel like it. Stop running your mouth and i'll drop it also.Comment -
no1 cares what u think...u cant even stay away for 5 minutes...ur becoming a troll
make u leave? u said u were leaving ur last post remember?
its fun laughing at ur constant fabrications
who is gone from the last month? name 1 single regular?Comment -
Damn I see I missed a bunch in my 3 hours off from work.. Look I have bet Nascar for a long time with some success but never the amount of success I am having now with Mike's weekly threads. Mike puts in a ton of work and so do many other regulars which is why there is so much valuable insight week in and week out. CD, you said you normally just read the thread each week. If you have so much insight and such an natural ability to pick winners then start contributing. Otherwise you are just like everyone else that reads the thread and makes their pick of the insight of others whether it's Mike or not. However, I don't suggest anyone go betting against Mike or any others in here for that fact. That's a sure way to go broke.

Tell you what since Mike is scared to bet me real $$$, i'll stop by b4 the race starts everyweek, and list my picks, just to show how Over Rated Mike really is. I don't want to fund a book this week in Sonoma, but count on me for the next races after that.Comment -
Mike onto more important issues. What are your thoughts on HARVICK this week? I wanted to play a big h2H against him and take Kurt Busch. Your thoughts?Comment -
Whats real embarrassing is how everyone is always s*cking Mike off around here.
Comment -
yeah really
i would definately take Kurt over harvick for this race, but really its a pretty even matchup going off just past finishes at sonoma, but i like Kurt cause that team knows this is a place he can easily win...hopefully the car/team stands up the whole race...new team and new car compared to last year of course
Kurt has beat harvick here 3 of the last 5 sonoma races and the last two finishing 1st and 3rd
Kurt has also been top 10 in passes at sonoma last few years, even though last year he didnt have to really
Harvick has been medicore at best here, besides starting 4th and finishing a good day in 3rd place in 2010...besides that he hasnt finished better than 9th in that time span...he finished on the lead lap 4/5 but was never a real factor up front...also didnt pass many of the top 15 cars on lead lap passes
again, if i picked the matchup, i would take KurtComment -
Kurt also has the series best running position(9.2) AND driver rating at sonoma (107.8)
Harvick is 9th and 13th in the same catagories
my only real concern with Kurt is that #78 car on a road course having the best driver they have ever had in there...but im sure he will give them the info they need to get him up there...hell the #51 team did last season!Comment -
On a side note...
Here's one for Shaunovery;
170m wide welcome to Melbourne for our Pommy rugger fans flying in for the series.

is this event football or what?
must be pretty big for aussie and england teams?Comment -
England. Scotland, Wales and Ireland all get together and make up an unbeatable rugby union team called The British and Irish Lions that tries to beat one of the Southern hemisphere countries every 4 years.
It used to be the only way they could put on a decent contest against us. (although now days England alone can beat us so this is more about how little we can lose by)
Shaun 'may' see it differently
I'm not much of a rugger fan, it's my 4th favorite football code really. But half of UK and Aussie population are thinking about not much else as the first of 3 matches in the test series looms just over 24 hours away..Comment -
You Aussies and your crazy sports

Although I think Vegas may have left???

Where is all this coming from CD? Really uncalled for, and no I'm not sucking off Mike.
Hell, I pretty much total him and Shaun to shut the fuk up during last race, when I was wishing drivers to smash the wall.
We are still all cool.
It's called calculations when you start taking long shots, so you make a decent amount, without betting too much on them. So hitting a 150/1 will boost your bankroll without betting regular units on it. I'm sure you know that.
If you get good odds on each driver, it allows you to take on additional drivers. That is why it is a must to get that best number, especially on the favorites. That is why Mike pulls all nighter's to hit 5dimes openers. So it is possible to take on a deep roster and still profit. Now if you don't hit any on that weekend, you are going to take a harder hit to the bankroll. That's why I try to stick to 3 or 4. But when odds improve, I find myself adding that additional driver.
Mike and I were PMing before the odds came out Tuesday, and he wasn't set on taking Ambrose unless he got a good number. He got that number, so he bet him. If I can get Ambrose 7/1, I will take him too.Comment -
No doubt 150/1 will get you profit, but some weeks the best he can get is +700 on say 3-5 drivers, Loses them all then the next week same thing most drivers in the +500/+700 range, he finally wins one of them, 1 win with +500/+700 doesn't make up for the other 9 Drivers who were at that price & lost. Not to mention when he wins with say JJ and he was at +250, Mike acts like he got rich that weekend, I call it like I see it, im not saying that he doesn't win $$$ but not like he tries to make everyone believe, he's a Bull Sh*tter.Comment -
He's clueless. Hard to explain to someone that doesn't even bet NASCAR
He's obviously got some real life issues. Better to deal than make an embarrassment out 1st self.
Nobody even agrees. LolComment -
You right, opinions are like A**holes everybodys got 1, Mine of you is you're a Exaggerating F*ck Boy, I might be the only 1 to say it, but I guarantee im not the only one thinking it, im just not going 2 kiss your a*ss like them, keep swinging from his nuts boys, time tells all tales.Comment -
C'mon fellas.
Without wanting to encourage you CD, you are right that Mike can't be making a high percentage of profit on his turnover. But he doesn't care about that, and he doesn't say he does.
I've probably PMed with him as much as anyone and i don't know exactly how much he bets or wins.
But I suspect he likes to win at least a couple of thousand per race, $70,000 per year that would be, enough to call an income. But i also suspect he doesn't mind putting 3 or 4 times that amount on the line a lot of weeks.
Which means he is really only picking -300 to -400 winners on average.
Not so hard to believe he has a 'big win', $2000+, so often and makes enough to live off, when you think about it that way.
Anyway, enough with the bullshitter stuff. He does not bet the conventional way but he's not lying about it. ;-).Comment -
Thank u optional. but good grief it nisnt that juicy...lol..least not usually...and alot its + just not huge +odds unless longshots come in...like u said, not for every1

Stats for LAST 5 races at Sonoma
.Comment -
im having a very tough time finding a good longshot i think can actually pull it off on the road course this time
on another note, i cant believe there are 8 drivers at +1025 and lower odds, they just have not adjusted from being bet down all weekComment
