100 picks, goal of 60% or better

rough start, look at the big picture tho and you should be straight

lasker · 02-23-10, 10:27 PM

Thanks. Yeah, it's been a horrible start but it's ok because I'm betting very little and nobody's tailing me when I'm this cold.

I'm still optimistic; I'm putting a lot of time into various systems and I think I'll eventually hit on one that's truly profitable. But it will take a while. I have large databases of previous results, but with formulas, back-checking is unfortunately no guarantee of future success.

New Mexico missed the cover by one point. So instead of going 5-0 with my original picks, I changed my mind and had another lousy night with 1-2. But for tomorrow I'm going to go back to the formula used for my original picks yesterday. We'll see if it gets any better...

Record since starting this thread: 5-10-0, 33%

Okay, three sides picks for today:

Kent -4 (my favorite play)

LSU +2 (bought hook)

Central Florida +4

Maybe I'll have a couple totals later, but that's all for now. On the bright side, things can't get much worse!

atleast we got some 1 to fade and choose the other team

jorge1 · 02-24-10, 02:27 PM

Im against you on Kent and LSU, at least one of us will make money!

Yes, perhaps I'll be the next Brandon Lang!

Adding UAB/Central Florida OVER 128

And that will do it for today. Better luck!

Damn, I'm too late now because the game just started a minute ago (score is now 4-4), but I would have also added a fifth play: SMU/East Carolina UNDER 132. But I didn't make the prediction in time so it won't count for the record (meaning that it will probably win)

Kent -4 (my favorite play)

LSU +2 (bought hook)

Central Florida +4

UAB/Central Florida OVER 128

The push will not be included in the records, I'll just keep track of wins and losses. So I was 2-1 for the night. SMU/East Carolina UNDER 132 also won, but I can't include it in the record since I posted the pick two minutes too late. I used the same formula yesterday in my first set of picks which went 5-0 (also not on the record because I changed my mind). So that brings the unofficial record of this particular formula to 8-1. I'll use it again tomorrow.

Overall: 7-11, 38.9%
Favorites: 3-2, 60%

Here's an early action play for tomorrow. Not planning on changing my mind this time

Pepperdine +21.5 probably will end up my favorite play for tomorrow, but more to come. This is strongly recommended from the system that is currently 8-1.

lasker · 02-25-10, 04:00 PM

Adding:

Georgia/Vanderbilt UNDER 144.5

That's going to do it for today. Best of luck

lasker · 02-25-10, 11:51 PM

0-2, another horrible result, and that's gonna be the last of this cursed thread. It seems pretty clear my earlier streak was blind luck. Well, I'll keep working in hopes of finding something genuinely useful. Sorry
