    If I don't pick them I don't know what to tell you. I do not play top 25, anything with a spread less than 3, and/or double figure spreads. Sorry. That is how I bring down the number of games, and those games are usually hit or miss.

    Impressive run, keep it goin. I don't care if you pick 50 games a day. At least I can look and see if what I like matches up and if not hopefully have enough willpower to not go against you.

    Mr. Junkie, you have made my day! LOL! That is how I began to trust myself and improving my methodology. I have conquered the NFL and NCAAF. I tried applying my method to college basketball and it does work but I had to get rid of some of these games. That is why I started out slow. I had to figure something out. So I did and now we are on a run.

    Oh, and develop the willpower to go against me or anybody else. I am still developing my skills. That was what I had to learn to do. Now I do not go to anyone's website to check. I use to be afraid to go against reverse line movement, go with the public or against the public, or against other cappers' picks. Now I just do what I do. You will get better and start trusting yourself. After you still continue to lose your money you will get tired of losing it and take this ish serious like it is your livelihood!

    That is my goal. I want to wager every day, sit back with a couple of cold ones, win some money, and pay the bills! This year has been great. I am still playing with football money. And I even brought most of it home after the Super Bowl. Now I am riding that loot funding this college BBall! I made a $100 deposit in August for college football/NFL and now I am in the stacks/racks. Not one deposit after that. I have been playing with house money ever since!

    I have a degree in Mathematics and Economics. That is why I never let a losing streak depress me. I know it is mostly in the numbers to at least do 50%. My job is to get over that percentage. Hence, the volume wagering.

    Thank you sir! BOL!

    I like to analyze la cara. I ended up reading some articles by professionals and those that are like us. Then I started looking at the results of the games I was losing. That is how I came up with those parameters. I have also noticed that if you fade most of the top 25 games you will come out a winner. Watch those games for yourself.

    I'm actually starting to get more into this and how u set the parameters make sense to me. No double digit spreads for the back doors, no spreads under 3 because technically those are coin toss games, and no top 25 because in essence it's also a coin toss..... Am I right?

    Correct. I went on a limb last night just to have some action. Did not pay off. Back to what got the streak going. I am in the stretch where games are close but swinging to the other side now. And I have had quite of few OTs that cost me a win. But I am alive. BOL.

    I apologize to those that look forward to seeing what I put on my card. The wife left for Fort Bragg yesterday so now I am a single parent again for a few weeks. The kid had Tae Kwon Do practice at 6 yesterday. I put my plays in but forgot to post them rushing to get him to class! I won't forget tonight. I will do it before I go grocery shopping around 6.

    Probably had no followers after I went on that cold streak anyway. I played with some games for my own good just to check a theory. It proved me right but cost me some wins. Money time now. Well, I will be back tomorrow. Nothing left. Good luck to those that have games left!

    13-11 for the day. I learned something today. I could have done better but I checked something I saw. Those games will be eliminated. I deem them 50/50. Now we shall finish strong. Do not be disturbed when I do not play a lot of games. It is a part of the program. Thank you.

    It was not what I would have liked but I gained 2 units.

First ... 2345678 ... Last
