you just keep sweating out your SBR point bets up by 20 points but still having to sweat it out so you can get a SBR pizzaOriginally posted by sharpcatSays the "Non-SBR Pro" to the "SBR PRO"
Who is betting points the guy with documented money in at least 1 SBR sponsor site (ME) or the guy with no SBR Pro status (LamemasterB)???
p.s. and just because im not a SBR "pro" dosent mean shit...I dont wish to have SBR locked into my accts for life and besides you made one deposit for $200 just so you can get those extra 6 points a day...now go have the time of you life in the SBR casino
while I play in real casinos in Nevada

I am liking being a squareComment -
Squares must remember that sharps bought the line down to 5.5-5 from 6.Comment -
A Sharp cashes their tickets....squares talk about how good the play was.Comment -
it was a good game though...I think PITT was exposed in a way tonightOriginally posted by lakerboy
oh stop it...go check your SBR point balance and skim the board for some contestsOriginally posted by Extra InningsComment -
Why is it that some people call others a "square" if they like a strong team?Originally posted by Grandmaster Bfirst of all 'squarecat' saying he bet PITT last night at -3.5 is a lie because I checked the line last night
now this is what has me intrigued...this is not steam...this is a prime example of a public square play...public hammers the opener thinking they're sharp
this is actually some great information here and I have decided to lay off this game entirely tonight based on my opinion that betting the PITT Steelers tonight is the biggest NFL square bet of 2010
now Im not saying Im going to bet the CIN Bungles...but I wouldnt be surprised one bit if the PITT Steelers bury the public tonight
I know Steelers are "public" team so the line is a bit inflated, I know it was 3rd road game in a row, etc.
But I took Pitt - 5.5 and won. WHY? Best team in NFL coming off a loss, Balt 1/2 game ahead in standings, Big Ben 4th game so back in sync, GREAT "D", Cincy "O" struggling, OL an issue, turning the ball over, underachieving all yr.
Cincy was lucky to get back into it... 3 Steeler key lineman got banged up during the game or it would have been 40-7 going into the 4th Q. If you do not like a favorite, you do not have the right to call everyone a square, big shot!Comment -
you see the paco power of reverse suggestion at work here?! gotta luv it! thx paco!Originally posted by pacoBungles are a
to score here.Comment -
I never understood how taking a team that is better in every aspect of the game is considered a square pick. Its really getting annoying when people toss that word around and have no idea what they are talking about.
Whatever, my "square" picks have been killing it in the NFL, and the steelers and the over came through for me today. So ill gladly be the square with the bigger bankroll and let all those "sharps" enjoy their lesser bankroll.
Squares unite!Comment -
well written.Originally posted by Extra Innings

Sharps already cleaned up on the NFL the first 7 weeks. Now they are taking there spots because the lines have gotten razor sharp.
Squares are mostly broke from the first 7 weeks losing by taking road faves non stop and now are on there 4th or 5th redeposit. Things are evening up a bit now as the numbers will regress to the mean. Then the dec games will come and most unders will hit and squares will be depositing for the NFL playoff runs and then lose again on the so called better teams like the chargers /pats and the vikes last year and then make another redeposit for the NBA run in only to have the shitty teams who have nothing to play for fukk them up again versus the good teams who will be resting guys in the fourth qtr to get ready for the palyoffs. then the squares will say i cant wait till baseball starts.
nice call on the steelers

My ticket says I was on Pittsburgh(-105) at -4.5 Pretty close bet. Basically a coin flip.Comment -
If you bet the bengals you should seriously consider another hobby.Comment -
Enough saidOriginally posted by SlimLang on Bungles and JJ is too.

The steelers are a far superior team PERIOD anyone who played the Bungles is a moron.Comment -
Lb, u are wrong. More public teams have cashed.
Funny how the words "square" and "sharp" are thrown around so slutly.Comment -
A win is a win is a win! Square, round, sharp edges whatever you want to call it.Comment -
Extra Innings nailed it. It was the Quote of the night.Comment -

Then i guess i must be looking at the wrong stats.
Dogs are 72-55-3 ATS for 57%
Favorites are 55-72-3 ATS for 43%
Away Dogs are 47-36-1 ATS for 57%
Home Dogs are 25-19-2 ATS for 57%.
Do you think the public bets were on the dogs or faves overall ?Comment -
Someone else posted this so I won't take credit,
"better to be square than to be a loser"
Many try to be "sharp" and f\*\*k themselves. And if it doesn't work out, they wanna blame the officiating.
Many thought they were "sharp"
giving Peyton +3, yet wanna whine when they fail to cover
Take the loss and ur wrong read like a man,

Lb, those stats might be correct but I'll tell u as my plays posted in my thread that I cashed more public plays than I lost.Comment -

Thats funny coming from you. When you win its the quote above but when you lose its some bullshit officiating. Remember when you had the pack -3 in chitown but blamed the refs for your loss. You were right the refs made bad calls in that game just like they did in the philly game yesterday. I guess its all about picking the refs brains.Comment -
That could be true Paco because you picked good spots to take the public plays- thats why you are good at this game.Originally posted by paco
PS- those stats arent might be correct- they are 100% fact.Comment -
Paco this is one of the truest things anyone has ever said on the forum. I'm giving you some points for this post.Originally posted by paco
People sometimes think they are on the sharp side when 65% is on one side and 35% on the other and the line doesn't move, those people will claim they are on the sharp side. Or if late money comes on a play, someone will say, I got the sharp side, late money came on X play.
If you make your plays based on this then the you will hit a little over 50% and you will need awhile before you see profits. Its pretty funny how some people will "love" a play at first, then they watch late money or something and end up "hating" the play.
If its that easy to make money just by looking at a few things, anyone can do it. Anyone can go and look at public % and watch the line movement and see if it lines up and make plays based on that and if thats so profitable than any average joe can do it. books make it so you can't just do that by itself and make moneyCause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
I don't concern myself with talk of sharp/square. Saw this stat through foxsheets and that was good enough for me to take the Steelers at -4.5
Play On Road teams off a road loss, in November games.
40-11 Last 5 seasons. 78.4%
Bengals could have easily covered (or won).
There's no room on the ticket for a story.Comment -

LB and Paco, you guys are friends right?
Im not sure how familar you guys are with poker players but its what I do for a living so I see this very clearly. LB is like the ultimate stats guy that bases his decisions all on stats and nothing on feel. (i.e. Bill Chen) Paco is the guy who bases all his decisions on external factors that almost everyone in the world couldnt do or understand. The decisions are based on feel and picking the right spots and even though he might not know the math or the exact odds or ev of a play he is a master based on his ability to use feel/gut/picking good spots (Phil Ivey). However when you guys are together, it can create the ultimate beast, but yaa..thats just my opinion here.Comment -
this was definitely better than your average discussion around here.. so many empirical values can go into making the right play.. paco and lb are both right.. tonight the public play won.. it happens.. end of storyComment -
