    Hate repeating myself but these picks have no reasoning. Not sure why they’re bumped up so much. Let the thread die without actual reasoning behind the pick. It’s why people laugh at SBR.

    Agreed, these threads with nothing but "on it" are just annoying and like a daily spam attack. Enough already.

    Cheers. I’ve been saying it for months now. There’s literally no reasoning other than posters going at each other. It’s a joke but the top people love the back and forth. Actual logic behind Lakerboy and this dudes picks is 0. They all argue with each other. It used to work back in the day possibly but it’s old now. Bring some actual substance to the pick to drive more traffic to the site.

    Relax. I've given reasons with writeups. Johnny ISN'T betting these. He just wakes up and posts it.

    Well i don't necessarily need reasoning to tail a poster, if they win or if i know more or less why they're betting - whether it be line movement or something else, I'll tail him. What's kind of annoying about Johnny's picks is that he simply picks underdogs just to be contrarian

    I remember a few of your write-ups from a few years back where you were putting down $1 million. Were you taking those bets?

    Yep. They’re both a joke and have absolutely 0 idea on what goes in to actually sports betting.

    I disagree with needing to give explanations to every pick. It’s not anyones responsibility to sell a pick to another poster. Any game you could give 50 stats for one team or the other. Sometimes those stats aren’t even the reason for the win. Plus in the end if I said “oh it’s a Tuesday and the Celtics win on Tuesdays” and I then proceeded to go 6-0 would that be skill? But the real question would be would it really matter? A winner is a winner

    You’re missing the point. It’s the same posters threads over and over again who are losing that are being bumped to the top. Why not for a change there is some actual reasoning for a pick being bumped up? Because Lakerboy and Johnny need to e-fight lol? This forum is a mess to us that actually do this for a living.

    johnny stop betting golden state and only bet celtic spots you psychopath. or dont even bet at all till game 7 for the hedge opportunity.

    the warriors look like the heat the second time against spurs in '14. old, can't defend, banged up. the run is over. nice run no doubt thanks to the KD years...

    I don't know if you could say "we all know this is going game 7", there's not really indication of that beside the league trying to fix it. It looks to me boston ist he superior team, and if it goes as planned, series should end in less than 6 games in boston favor.

    What he should of done with +900 warriors ticket is simple hedging boston series price before the game 1 starts, secure easy +500 win.. simple.

    Whatever you said don’t really matter, it’s that you said with such conviction like it’s guaranteed to go 7 when there’s no such thing in world of sports, it could go 7 and easily could also end in 6 as it stands now.

    and what you replied with also didnt matter lol you said if the series goes "as planned" this series would be over less than 6. maybe were not watching the same game or series. idk what you are seeing to think this series is over less than 6 games.

    & i was kind of saying it facetiously but also with conviction cause its what i genuinely believe. i said nothing about a guarantee. having a feeling golden state is gonna steal a game like boston did is a big indication. cause now its 1-1-1 and would i be surprised if golden state win at home and boston win their home game or vice versa? absolutely not

    I said if goes as planned, I said “if”, there’s no such suggestion that my prediction was a guarantee… what you said however sound more like a Guarantee to me, “we all know”, no we didn’t know all know that, anything could happen...simple as that.

    No, it really doesn't.

    Stevex is lying when he says he's a bettor. He thinks a "write up" at SBR will carry more meaning than no "write up" because he doesn't know what's meaningful or not.

    There hasn't been a meaningful write up anywhere at SBR, unless you count my no vig market comparisons. I constantly test the Forum, I put out information that can make a bettor a winning bettor, or at least have him lose less, and then I can put out information that sounds good, but means far less.

    SBR posters end up liking the entertainment, even call trivial information "knowledgeable", and at the same time have no idea what to do with the actual winning information, even when it's explained. Very few posters know the difference, very few care.

    The gambling IQ at SBR is very, very low. Posters like Stevex help to bring it down as well, by looking for reasoning behind plays that don't consider the price being paid, margins, offered, etc. But again, very few care. They want to be entertained at SBR, and will die on that hill, because it is too hard to pursue anything deeper in sportsbetting for the vast majority.

    We can hardly blame the posters, like I always say, it's not that they don't know, it's that so much of what they know is wrong. Since so many of these posters have so much to prove, whatever their reason, it makes learning impossible.

    In the end, writeups are far more helpful to the poster, as opposed to the reader. The answer is definitely not asking thread starters like Johnny to post his logic, no matter how sound it might be.
