Lakerboy/Ratzz__Pleasure-Meter & Stress Factor

[Ratzz]

these following posts are from "Nets +8" by LB

Gotta love this line. This is crazy. Spurs won't cover this number. This might be my NBA play of the year so far. I'm thinking at least 3 dimes and maybe as high as 5 dimes. I have no doubt the spurs are way better and all that stuff but laying 8 points is way too much. Will book NJ +8 -110 very soon.

Nets +8 -110(25x) is locked in.

after checking it out..

i decided the best game on the board is the Clippers (+6) in Milwaukee

let's face it, each wager is either a success or a failure. Those two states create either pleasure or stress in our brains and bodies. What we expose ourselves to will contribute to our overall health. So the experience of the wager itself is also important.. did it win..? how close was it? How do i feel now? What are my options or limitations tomorrow?.. etc..

a bad bet can ruin a week or a month.. and a good one can make it... it all adds up...

let's do a test and see how our picks matchup..
(if i did this any other way, JR would accuse me of doctoring the results afterwards)

i looked at the board, and my final pick is the Los Angeles Clippers (+6) for 8X in Milwaukee

i am willing to stand by my pick, though it is not my Play Of The Year, just my pick of the day..

that said, will all the money on the table, i hope they both win.. GL2ALL

Dude, no one gives a shit about you. You are an annoying fukk. Please get hit a truck.

Best wishes, Paul and 99% of the board.

ever hear that saying "don't kill the messenger"?

it means that people should examine the message not from whom or where it comes from.

better to look at the picks.. and not who it comes from.

[reppin_the_847]

Agreed. I'm personally on week 2 of a month or two long hiatus from serious wagering, and in the meanwhile I want to check out the performance of everyone on here, even Ratzz lol. Guys don't forget, early playoff rounds usually = easy money.

[firehoyt]

LOL whys there always gotta be a pissin contest involved?!?

[BetterBizness]

Bucks have just so little to offer... so do the Clip... I'm not saying Bucks don't win, but HOW ON EARTH can this be a play of the day....

Because the French have lost every major pissing contest in World History.... A Frenchman must make up for it in Sports Gambling...

this thread is not earth ...rather outer space attention starved

[JR007]

Thanks to Blake Griffin, Clippers may be the most overvalued team in the NBA. Bettors assume that because they've got a human highlight reel as a power forward, that they can hang in situations where they're clearly overmatched... Like at Toronto last night (my Free Play winner Sunday).

The public is happy to get this many points, but buyer beware, as once again I'm here to tell you that the oddsmakers aren't stupid. They wouldn't install the Bucks as such a relatively large favorite in this spot, unless they were certain Milwaukee was going to bring their "A" game. Yes, I'm well aware that the Bucks have lost 7 of their L8 SU (3-5 ATS). And yes, I'm well aware of their injury situation. But that only streghtens my point: What does it tell us that they're 6 point favorites in this spot in spite of all this?!

Looking at the match ups, as long as the Bogut/Jennings/Salmons trio is on the court, the Bucks will do well against a struggling Clippers defense that's allowing 106 ppg over their L5 games. Same cannot be said for the Clips, who will be facing a solid Bucks defense that is surrendering only 91 ppg over the same 5 game span (and allowing just 90 ppg at home this season). That includes one match up in particular that I like, and that's the Ilyasova/Griffin match up. He'll get help from Bogut I'm sure, but the 6'10 forward is a decent enough defender to cause some problems for Griffin, and that's key to slowing down LA's slightly average offense. Bottom line, lay the points as Milwaukee protect it's house Monday.

i really just make gut plays... it was tough getting over the hump, and training myself to..

a) evaluate stats
b) and then ignore them..

stats are mild directions, but fluke stuff happens all the time..
just look at all the flukey success stories out there...!

i think this is one of them.. i know the Clips are crippled up...
i just think that 6 pts is a HUGE amount for a bad team like the BUCKS..

>>> LOOK at the diff in the spreads...

6 Pts. separate the BUCKS (20-33 SU) and the CLIPS (20-34 SU)
8 pts separate the SPURS (45-9) and the NETS (17-38)

same amount of wins 0%, Vegas gave 6 pts.
and 264% MORE wins.. Vegas ONLY GAVE 8 Pts!!! (1 bucket more)

i'm sorry, but that is a HUGE gaping hole in the electrified-fence, and that hole
is where i am going to make my move. (jailbreak tonite)

[Ratzz]

jail-break: clips +6

[BL]

A guy saying it's about picking winners together and not on defining the best capper set up a competition like thread


btw: Bucks win by dd tonight. I already placed my bet on MIL early at -5

que tonto!

[BL]

From what you said Clippers should win outright for your pick to be a good one. And you call me "tonto" ? no mames we

[BetterBizness]

jail-break: clips +6

What on earth does this even mean?

[Ratzz]

Bottom line, lay the points as Milwaukee protect it's house Monday.

this is more tribalism... instead of examining the picks.. JR runs out and looks for ammunition against my pick.. AS IF ... it is actually going to affect the outcome of the game... LOL...

you gotta be kidding me,.. dood. examine the info. (picks)

the messenger is meaningless

i assume that you are also going to fortify your position with additional bets on the NETS?

[Ratzz]

estás correcto. lo siento.

[BetterBizness]

Or.... Or...maybe he just used the same guy he quotes from all the time and (Wait for it...) that guy just happens to be on the other side...

just maybe...

Regardless of outcome... The Dude's writeup outclasses yours 5:1...

[Pauulzcappin]

Bucks -5.5

it is the same fellow... i recognize the sentence structure and cadence..
but if he did not feel that way this AM, or post it himself earlier, what good is it adopting that position late in the day?

i know he spends 2 hrs scribing that i am certain.. i write mine in 2 min.
i should hope they are significantly better.

[LucyTheApe]

BOL to you Rat.

[Ratzz]

BOL to you Rat.

i love your avatar

look into the Island of Flores in Malaysia...

very interesting incidents of island dwarfism... miniature elephants (adult 4ft.)
and human skeletal remains that were not much larger (though much more recent) than Lucy..

who found Lucy... not the Leakey's ...

[Ratzz]

BOL to you Rat.

this owl almost fits in one's hand.. so small..

just one question, y did u have to include lakerboys name in ur thread title? y cudnt it just be about ur pick

[Ratzz]

just one question, y did u have to include lakerboys name in ur thread title? y cudnt it just be about ur pick

Play Of The Year for 25X

sounds like 'front and center' to me.

[Gumdog]

so y did u have to compare ur pick with his pick?

[face]

clippers played bucks tough in la and won, but tonight it's the bucks serving up the beatdown, but probably not 6.

[$Burm$]

sweet thread ratzz...you're right, you're not looking for any attention or anything at all are you?..Can't wait for the nets to cover and the clipps not to..

[vyomguy]

bucks will cover -6...and then this thread will never show up again coz ratzz will stop bumping it .

[Ratzz]

so y did u have to compare ur pick with his pick?

because i felt his pick was a coin flip, and he was openly recommending to his followers to go heavy.. on their wagers.
it seems like a rushed decision, perhaps trying to beat another capper to that pick.. which is fine.. nobody cares

but if that is the motive.. don't recommend to dutiful and devoted followers to go heavy.. because they will. and could lose.

i started posting units because people told me my picks were not legitimate otherwise.
before that i did not like to tell people how much to bet.

i will write here what i wrote to an inquirer in my thread asking me how much to bet.

do what is right for your wallet right now.

Never bet big to get a buzz.
Never bet on your favorite team.
Never bet more after a loss.

make a good mellow bet, that if it loses, won't hurt you

but I fail to see the problem, if this is a Play Of The Year.. it will win...
and if it wins.. then more kudos to him.. no?

and for the record, i hope they both win.

"CAps vs. Books" is the bottom line

[Gumdog]

i just dont understand. if he feels that this is a good play. he has real money on it. im sure his not just goign to give his money away right?

are u not openly recomending that ur followers take clippers X 8. this seems to b a pretty heavy bet to me.

theres always a chance any pick could lose this is the nba where amazing happens anyway right

same rules don't apply.. LB has alot of money...

many of his followers don't.

his units are relative to his wealth, it should be specified and reduced for general public.

Hey Rat why did you stop posting under your old username?

[alamo]

Good luck Ratz...You have been silencing all your haters lately with your picks
