Boston Celtics +6.5
to win 11 units

[WiseGrumpy]

Big bet. Big game. I got tickets. Going with @TheWizard_IL*

[hawley]

You guys dont get it. I'm not knocking the streak he may of been on, just pointing out what happens when it ends. True to form WG already has an 11u play.

Would it be an 11u play if you hadn't lost a few in a row?

what are those people who tail you meant to do when you post 100u plays? bet their entire bankroll?


We have heard the same dribble about you being a professional gambler etc before

[shimeon40]

Hawley if you don't like grumps picks..simple,pick your own..don't come on here bagging the guy who has an overall superb record.

[WiseGrumpy]

the post you just made shows you are a complete moron. I always will and always did post the u i really bet. whoever tails me should always bet according to his bank roll.
About the 11 u bet. I always double. Betting the same amount after a lose is a bad bet. I am a 60%+ better so I know I will hit more often the not. hence doubling. The last time I decided to reset to the first bet because I made some mistakes. Here I feel its different and love this bet. I would lose? i will reset.
You guys can understand and always remember for me every bet I publish is a sure winner until the end of the game. So the u size is your choice. What I can promise is that if you bet like me unit wise you will make money. but each one has his roll.

You mean a record that consists of 100u chases? You don't find it weird that as he loses his units have got larger and larger? Guess it's just me who has seen it before. There is a reason he may have a good record and that is because he just bets bigger units to preserve it.

GL tailing him pal, let me know when he posts a 1000u bomb or decides to take his picks exclusively to twitter again.

[WiseGrumpy]

I guess you still didn't do your hw and read how and why I made those bets. Anyway gl to those that tail. all the others. it's your choice I don't care.

[shimeon40]

Haley...have you been taking your medication?...i suggest take 2 panadol..lay down..and rest...your giving us a headache with your dribble... thats hawley trying to make it back to the looney asylum before the nurse notices he's missing...again

[IllyPhilly[DOC]]

Congratz with the Celtics! Whats your pick for tmr Grumpy?

[ifiwaspresident]

There is a reason he may have a good record and that is because he just bets bigger units to preserve it.

That's actually a legitimate betting style if you have the balls and bankroll to commit to it. WG explained that this is exactly what he does (double when chasing) and why. Mathematically it is a fantastic strategy if your bankroll can handle a losing streak. I'm not sure I understand exactly what you are criticizing. It almost sounds like you don't understand his strategy. As for "you guys not getting it", rest assured that I get it...I just don't agree with you.

[Taro Punk]

hurrray!!! celtics!!!

[WiseGrumpy]

Thnx for all the great comments. I just got back from the game. After the C's scored 65 at the 1st it was over. I had a blast.
There were almost as many C's fans as Heat fans.

About tomorrow? I'm not sure yet, I have a flight back to Vegas and I don't like betting without watching the game, so we will see. What I can say is that this week we will start having MLB plays as well.

[WiseGrumpy]

30-24
+12

I am avoiding commenting in this thread because I have said my bit but you really think he has a bankroll to allow him to make 1000u plays?

What a load of shit.

Care to explain how it mathematically a great idea? PM it to me if you like to avoid filling this thread with more rubbish but rest assured you are wrong.

Ok you won't read the entire thread so I will write this again:
All the bets I EVER posted are bets I have placed. I have many backers (sponsors) and when they worked with me I had some very large bets. I said last season this season I am on my own, because of that now the units are much smaller, they are 100% MINE. That's it. But the size doesn't change the fact that if you followed me from day 1 and bet according to my % of units compared to my roll to your roll, you would have been way up.

Now please. If you don't like the way I do things, please don't reenter this thread. It's nice and calm and I rather have no comments than this on my thread. Losing or winning I want a nice thread. And whoever follows me makes money, that it why I have enough followers, you can follow other.


We had a big bet, this day should be positive, don't **** it up.

Thnx.

[WiseGrumpy]

Oh and if you REALLY don't understand why I bet the same size EVERY bet, you have no future in this bizz. You can't win betting like that. EVER.

[hawley]

But you only bet larger units when you are losing? Why not bet the larger units on the plays you like more?

Can you post a betting slip of one of your 1000u plays? I would love to see one.

You also say if I tailed you from day one and bet accordingly I would be up money? Do you mind telling me how large your bankroll is?

I will answer anything, everytime.

I change my tactics all the time, I learn from mistakes, change if there is a need for change according to recent trends and so on. So today I REALLY liked my bet, so I didn't bet to win 3 like I planned, but to win 11. But my method atm is 1 bet a day to win 3. So if we lose we play to win 6 and so on. But things change if I need them to. All the time.

I don't keep slips, never did, don't see the point. Cash is all I need.

I won't post my personal bankroll because my main thing is poker and I have the bankroll together (didn't in the past but I don't see anything wrong with it, so far), but I have a system and I don't cross the boundaries I set.

And again. If you tailed me in the past I always said work with your bankroll according to mine. For example even if my first bet was 100 units, you bet 1 unit. If I bet 1000 bet 10 and so on. You can't bet like me because each person has his own boundaries and own roll.

This season all the bets are 100% my roll. 100% me. And I will keep it that way. I don't need backers anymore I got to my goal and now soaring up. So you can be calm, you won't see those bets anymore even when I will be a millionare, I have my systems and my rules to my own money.

[ifiwaspresident]

WG...you do realize this is a lost cause (convincing hawley) right? I'm an electrical engineer. My math education started where most other majors finished. This is the most basic arithmetic I have ever seen. You just have to have balls of steel and a stud bankroll to pull it off. The logic behind your strategy is as obvious as the nose on my face, but if someone gets it in their mind to be deliberately contrarian there isn't anything you can do about it. I've said my piece, and I'll not revisit this regardless of hawley's future responses. Keep it up amigo.

Please entertain me and PM me with how this is basic arithmetic.

Let me assume your existence on SBR is limited to tailing others?

Your first bets are not 100 units though, they start at 1 unit and soon leap out to 100 units.

What is someone who tails you meant to do when after two weeks you have gone from betting 1u to betting 100?

I'm done here, I wish you good luck. I hope these people defending you took a few minutes to actually browse your previous threads.

[Taro Punk]

i tailed, but i do not always do increment after a loss. Because I don't have much capital. So it's really up to you to follow the units or not. Cheers~

[rhawbsays]

wow

[freddues]

TEST?

CappinG? Are you on board?

[flyboy]

I think that hawley dikhead pissed him off. I hope he comes back!

[Taro Punk]

wise! make an explosive come back please!

[hawley]

Yea we haven't seen this from WG before so yes of course I pissed him off.

Maybe it was because I exposed him you stupid fuks. If you want to mindlessly tail someone at least tail a respectable transparent poster.
