#1823No, im not saying that because I don't know. Remember even if sawyers system comes up with 60% winners that means 40% of the time hes making a bad bet. (Don't forget both these are theoretical winrates).

Uhhh what, do you understand sportsbetting at all? If your coming up with 60% winners that does not necessarily make the other 40% bad bets. I'd say 65% is pretty much the ceiling long term for sports betting, so theoretically if your hitting 65% of your picks all of your picks would be on the right side in the long run.
To even hit a 60% long run winrate, I would guess that only 10% of ones bets would be bad ones.Comment -

#1825He is still 52,2% what is all these crying about (maximum can cry, he is a baby). Lol, does anyone lost his entire bankroll because of Sawyer? NO. The ones who tail him from the beggining are break even so far. Babies plz get out of this thread and play with your toys, betting and gambling are for tough and wise guys. You can criticise someone, but not like that baby maximum...Comment -

#1831Yes there is a big difference, that was my bad. But i just have to disagree a tad on your other comments. You can't tell whether or not phoenix vs sac was a bad bet based off a sample size of 1. Maybe this was in the lowest 5% range where its gonna end up this low. There is no way of knowing. I do agree that it leans towards a bad bet but there's still no way to tell for sure.Comment -

If you dont like his picks and youre so brilliant with sportsbetting then why are you posting here??? Oh I know why, cuz youre the typical internet clown who bashes guys when they lose, lies about their personal life, and tries to "educate" people all the while spewing nonsense.
Congratulations, you are officially a "square" . . . . and probably a total friggen donk at the tables too
Site you play on and screenname??? But Im sure that'll be some big secret and you cant tell us LOL

There is no way of knowing for sure, but you can def get a good idea. Reviewing your bets unbiased after the game is a very important part of being a winning capper IMO. This game had a VERY slow and very conservative approach to the game by both teams. The total was actually lucky to get as high as it did since we had 34 offensive rebounds in the game which is ridiculously high. The pace at which this game was played this game would never go over without OT.Comment -

#1834keep at it sawyer, bets are obv + EV longterm, and this is just variance. I am also a pro poker player who understands this well, please dont leave or stop posting because people dont understand what +ev bets or variance are. There are many of us who appreciate what you do.Comment -

#1836Pretty easy to say this after the fact. So, I guess you knew not to bet it? Or were you smart enough to take the under, since it was a bad bet?
Open your mouth BEFORE the game goes off, not AFTER.
THEN, you will have some credibility.Comment -

#1837Im not really gonna have a conversation with you about this cuz I can tell you already know everything, its obvious by your condescending and arrogant attitude. What I will say is 65% sustainable winrate longterm is laughable, almost as laughable as you trying to say you play poker for a living when youre here bashing the guy over 6 losers.
If you dont like his picks and youre so brilliant with sportsbetting then why are you posting here??? Oh I know why, cuz youre the ypical internet clown who bashes guys when they lose, lies about their personal life, and tries to "educate" people all the whill spewing nonsense.

Also i'm not bashing him at all over 6 losers, I actually said the one was on the correct side IMO, I just stated I don;t think his edge is as large as he thinks it is this early in the season. I only bet NFL and i'm far from a square lol. Not having the best season this year, but i'm still up a good amount.
I don't see what my poker sn has to do with anything and i'm not posting it on a public forum, if you really want it you can pm me. I'm up a good amount but I live in Vegas now and don't play online nearly as much anymore.Comment -

#1840So basically you are just spewing a bunch of bs with nothing to really go off of at. You say 65% is ridiculous, but you can't tell me what you think the ceiling is. Ask any real capper who's been doing this awhile. None will give you higher than 65%, maybe a few overly optimistic ones will give you 70%, but that's it. Also i'm not bashing him at all over 6 losers, I actually said the one was on the correct side IMO, I just stated I don;t think his edge is as large as he thinks it is this early in the season. I only bet NFL and i'm far from a square lol. Not having the best season this year, but i'm still up a good amount.

Im the one spewing nonsense yet you say 65% is sustainable longterm and that you play poker for a living but wont (as expected) list your screenname (but even if u did u really dont play online anymore but youre up soo much and live in Vegas now blah blah blah).
Like the guy above said, come in BEFORE the game and tell us how awful of a pick they are. Any moron can come in after the game and say "oh ya he was on the wrong side." Thats what total friggen idiots do and thats exactly what youre doing. And quit lying to people about playing poker for a living also, its soooooo obvious you dont so just stop. It doesnt make you look cool like you think it does
Now come back and tell me how youve CRUSHED sports betting for years and how you play live and just kick ass and blah blah blah. Noone buys it. All you are is some tool who thinks 65% is sustainable longterm, telling guys they were on the "wrong side" AFTER the game, and lying about playing poker for a living. Get lost . . . .. or go back to Covers

And just explain how its so obvious, also pm me your poker sn and maybe we can play some heads, its been a bad week and I could use the extra cash.Comment -

#1844Hey Sawyer....
You understand the nuances of sports investing more than 95% of the people
on this forum.....
I dont know how you can tolerate what people have to say after you have a bad run....
...these are the same people you are trying to help.....
I tried with a tennis pick thread and stopped it after 6 days ...even though I was
profitable ......just couldnt stand what the people had to say.....
Your a stud man.......you have more tolerance than I could manifest........Comment -

I'm not over-reacting to anything. I just thought it was interesting that you stated the Pho-Sac over was not a +EV bet. Again, after the fact commentary.
Most professional bettors, if they are honest, will not tell anybody they are hitting over 60%. Anybody who says they are hitting 75% long term is totally full of crap.
I am amazed that people who post in this forum are throwing crap at Sawyer.
They don't have a clue to what sports betting is all about.
On the same thought, Sawyer has a great record over a season or less (don't really know, I've never paid any attention to him). Anybody who thinks someone who has won at a good rate over less than 200 (I think) picks is not very wise.

#1848When you follow someone you tail at your own risk, stop crying because he missed a few in a row. If you don't trust him or his system then just don't tail or fade him.

I still don't know why people think i'm throwing crap at him. I've actually been following him off and on for a few weeks now. Its been a total of about 30 picks, which I know is next to nothing. But in hindsight, I think he has been on the wrong side in about half of them, which is a lot. I can tell he is a good capper just the way he talks tho, which makes me believe his edge isn't as big this early in the season as it will be once the season moves on further.
Maybe i'm wrong though, I am not so good at NBA so its certainly possible. I bet NFL which I never had a losing season at, i'm not great at it but I do win decent money doing it.Comment -

#1851You folks kill me, just one time roll betters I guess. Again children, its called gambling. if you tail someone, its ok if they win, but not lose. No matter what side you scrubs are on, I wish you would just go away, for those of us who are/have been around for the long haul, don't need to hear it. Some win, some dont. Have balls and by the way, make your own freakin thread, this is sawyers thread. If you dont like it, make your own fukn threadComment -

I really could be wrong as I mentioned I haven't followed this guy nor have I read his threads.
