People That Enter Contests Are Flat Broke

[tacomax]

Too funny.

No, natrass. Raiders is 100% right there.

I read jjgold's post last night and immediately think "That's just a crock of shit".

But when I come back a day later, after having thought about it overnight I come to the conclusion - "That's an absolute, total and utter crock of shit and the delusions of a failed gambler".

JJGold is one of the most deep thinking philosophers of the 21st century. Not all are able to grasp his concepts over night. It may take some a little longer than others. After this time you will have a revelation and realize how accurate that JJGold really is.

[mad]

Your loyalty is certainly admirable raiders, if not a little suspect.

What make you think some of the rubbish posted here qualifies anyone as:

"the most deep thinking philosophers of the 21st Century"

Me thinks there is more to this than meets the eye. Are you a homosexual?

[BadAzz]

I feel a sudden urge to write something (and i need the posts, should I ever be able to make one right pick on the contest).

Why do I feel that hald of the threads in this forum end up in discussion about jjgold or "sharpnesness" of posters. I could not care less whether jjgold is a deep philosophist or a total dodo, neither do I need to know if someone is a sharp or a scalper. I am able to form my own impression about everyone.

I personally am interested in information about bookies to which I think the name Sportsbookreview refers to. I also like to see how are the numerous issues between bookies and bettors handled. A nice competition like beat the Prick, is always refreshing.

And no, I am not broke and I entered the contest.

I am not too fond of the situation where the forum is headed, but then again, why should you care - I am not a sharp, I bet in strange Euro books and for crying out loud, I come from Finland.

Are you a homosexual?

Mad- Don't get your hopes up. I like women. You'll have to fish in another pond.

[raiders72001]

Bad Azz- I'll try and help you out here. First, get rid of all the strange European books and you won't be so worried. If the book isn't rated B or higher here then you're at your own risk.

I'm not sure about you but while there are mostly good topics here there are a lot that I don't care about either.

4 topics on beat the Prick doesn't interest me at all. Topics on D and F rated books aren't up my alley either as I would never play there.

The one thread about guys bragging on how much they win and taxes doesn't exactly light a fire here..

The topics about the guys playing online casinos are either just throwing their money out the window or bonus scamming.

And what abotu the guy that was allowed to defame a book because of past posts. That was crooked imo. To each his own.

You're killing me here.

[BadAzz]

Point taken Raiders. When the sudden urge strikes there is a little one can do. And sadly, I rarely have anything to say. Now I do however, thanks to your "get rid of Euro books" comment, but I'll start a new thread on that.

[David]

Interesting thread.

[raiders72001]

Bad Azz- Are there any European books outside of the UK that you are playing at? Since you've had so little to post about post the books immediately.

I'm not sure who has a better ranking of books between SBR and JJGold but you may want to ask both if they will review these bad books that you are playing at so that you can get out while there's still time.

If you don't hurry your money may get confiscated and all you'll have to look forward to is beating the Prick. GL

[raiders72001]

For those that missed the article in " Gambling Today" JJGOld wrote an article on gambling. It's a prelude to his up coming book out next week called the "Psychology of Sports Betting". I was able to get an early copy and it's a must read.

[jjgold]

Euro books are ok but they are very generic and have high juice.

The majority are safe but I see no value playing there. If you give me a list I will rate each one.

Thanks Raiders .........there are many hidden messages in my posts that some guys here do not see.

[mad]

I'm sorry now but i have had about enough of this.

Firstly,
Who determined that you decide what's good and what is not? I am of course refering not only to this thread but also to your self proclaimed rating of sportbooks which you deem fit to post here on the SBR forum of all places. The SBR team investigate, at some length, each book before posting their recommendations. You post rubbish based on some story you read here on the forum or the gossip you here from God knows where. Yet at the same time you rubbish others for freely expressing their ideas or trying to enjoy themselves. The worst part is that by responding i am only encouraging your infantile behaviour.

Get a grip.

[raiders72001]

Mad- SBR visits the sports books and comes up with some great ratings. The problem is that when you visit these books they put their best foot forward so you aren't getting a real picture.

Employees of SBR aren't allowed to gamble online. You really need someone that's out there gambling to give you a good rating on a book.

While SBR is doing a fine job I would also look at JJGold's rating. SBR is also missing a few hidden gems that JJGold is currently playing at.

[natrass]

Mad ... it is odd isn't it? JJ is really the forum punch drunk old-timer and raiders is his groupie. Once you understand that, you can just relax and laugh at it ... the others seem solid enough and the odd couple, well, they actually do know their onions if you can be arsed to wade through all the sh*te.

[raiders72001]

natrass- I can see that you are catching on a tiny bit here but there are some things you aren't clear. JJGold is in pretty deep and has run up quite a balance with me.

I'm trying to stay in good graces with him until he finally coughs up the money.

Just remember I like JJGold's posting but a lot of other guys like Prick.

So you're a bookie and he owes you a lot of money?

Never mention jjgold's name in the same breath as The Prick.

The Prick is the top poster here by a mile - it's a shame he doesn't post more.

[mad]

Thanks Natrass,
It certainly is an intriguing relationship. I wonder if they are one and the same. They certainly seem pretty close and intent on the promotion of the one person.

[mad]

JJGold is in pretty deep.

Well that certianly explains a lot.

[codeworks]

funny thread A+ work JJ !

[tacomax]

Well that certianly explains a lot.

How on earth did I miss that one?

Not sure I understand why someone who gambles would have an advantage in rating a book... seems to me that are numerous ways to find out stuff without ever placing a bet yourself...

[newb411breaker19]

jj i am pretty much flat broke but not cuz im a gambling addict. I just started about 2 months ago with 100 bucks and ive made 40 bucks so far (1 dollar flat bets). to me a contest like beat the prick is a good way to try and build a bankroll. I think people who have an interest in sports handicapping are flung into the list of compulsive gamblers who spend hours playing blackjack. Sports handicappers are at least smart enough to steer away from the negative expectation playing craps or roulette has

[SBR_John]

Yea, this is a funny thread. How about natrass describing JJ Gold as

the forum punch drunk old-timer

. Thats funny right there.

[raiders72001]

from the negative expectation playing craps

There is one bet in craps that advantageous to the player. Do you know what it is?

Bigboydan - Don't go answering this question. I want to see if anyone else knows.

[LVHerbie]

With all the criticism of JJ one can't deny he knows how to get a thread hopping... 59 post on this thread total so far... err... make that an even 60 ;-)

[raiders72001]

JJGold is a professional poster.

[jjgold]

Hey boys if you smaller players can build a bankroll with contest that is great. I throw out these threads for debate even if some get offended.

Good Work everyone who posted here.

[SBR_John]

JJ "THE COACH" Goldstien has thick skin. He has some funny life expierences too.

Raiders, if you survive the comeout roll the Dont Pass line has a positive expectantcy.

[newb411breaker19]

raiders is there really a bet thats advantageous? i had only heard of one bet that was even money but i don't know what it was. I know nothing about casino games though

[LVHerbie]

once the point is set the odds on the pass line is a even money bet...

[raiders72001]

newb- As said above taking odds is an even money bet.

John- You are cheating and hedging.

The only +EV bet you can find is when the are closing a table down. This happens a lot on the boats. They will say three more rolls. At this time yoou want to make a come bet. Odds of 7 or 11 hitting against a 2, 3 or 12 are 2-1 on that first roll. After that on the second and third roll you would only lose on a 7 but would win on whatever you threw the first roll. If none of this occurs you get your money back.

[Chi_archie]

what about people that enter contests, and whine about getting screwed over by mods?

[AgainstAllOdds]

[jjgold]

You never see me in contests, I would be embarassed to enter.
