    Plenty of good capers are below 50% and are +Ev. And Vice Versa.

    Z-score should be the leading method in determine a capers ability.

    I have no other opinion on LB other than he contributes positively to this board. His Z- may suck after this hit, I don't know. However, I enjoy his posts and I think he is sharper than most on this board....

    That's true. % can be misleading, however in this case it isn't. By any measure you decide to use, LB is not winning. He is down over 3K since he began his spreadsheet in July of 2011.

    He has approximately 1500 bets in that time---and he is losing both in percentage and units.

    I too have no dog in this fight, but---and here's the but for me---he brings this shit on himself when he announces to the board that he is making the largest NFL bet of his life---it screams for attention.

    And he followed that up with some sort of bet with himself---if the Packers win the NFC title---he leaves for good. Okay? But who asked him to put himself on the line like that? If he enjoys SBR as much as his posting history and time spent on here would indicate, what's with the drama?

    The answer is obvious. LB needs the drama. He wants the attention.

    Plus he wont leave even if he loses, this type of people have no respect or word, like paulypoker and many others here, this board is his life...

    Breaking News: Lakerboy has been kicked out of many fancy restaurants tonight. Owners were scared of this Indian man taking pics of the restaurant, the bomb squad was even called. Lakerboy just bet on these 3 games. Kstate+9.5, raiders -1.5, and Giants-4.5 and you can buy a new restaurant.

    He brings lots of discussion here positive and negative

    I got to admit.. I read his picks threads
    I always read Lakerboy. I never like to see any poster lose money; something not right about a person who would enjoy that. About the restaurant, it rings true to me, because if you look around, McDonalds has been spending money on renovations like crazy. There are three that come to mind just in my area, so this could very well be true. These McDonald renovations are in the 'major' category. I would think this is a nationwide trend.

    I threw in 50k at pinny a few years ago and 25k at the greek last year. not under my name of course.

    being on this site i make sure there are no trails.

    most of my big bets are with my local because its easier but i love those above books cause they pay and fast. i would not bet with any other books that have a north america facing background.

    i have accounts with 3 euro books as well but thats mostly for soccer.

    like him or not, he does what this forum was intended for. the guy posts his picks and reasoning for them.. that's more than i do. the only possible way this forum is better w/o him is if all the people bashing him were gone too... and i'd still prefer to read his thoughts and deal with all the bs.

    it could be worse, he could just post his picks with no reasoning and attach guns n' roses videos.

    This guy is full of sh1t I know a local that tells who's me who's the big spenders are, and their are only two kinds, a rich white business man or a un educated Street hustler. Street hustlers can rake in tons and tons of cash doing nothing, so they'll drop dimes on games like it's a joke and lose without even sweating. Rich business Men, these are usually white dudes. They're not even gambling to win since they're already stack on cash. They're doing it just for the high, to make the game more enjoyable to watch.

    Restaurants in my opinion don't generate enough free money, where you can go off and blow 100k yearly with all the overhead expenses you need to pay to run the damn thing. This guy is the biggest loser on this site, yet folks continue to defend his sorry@ss. Hey, he's a view magnet, so I guess that's all that matters

    what is it with these deluded indians?

    first indian cowboy claims to be a doctor who apparently treats patients and performs surgeries over the internet since hes busy posting on forums 24/7/365....

    now this indian nazi claims to be a millionaire restaurateur who spends 24/7/365 posting $100 bets on his spreadsheet.

    but of course neither will ever prove any of it with pics or screenshots. we should all trust them blindly.

    Why would you not post the names and pics of your restaurant. Free advertising. A smart business owner like LB should know this? I don't really know what to believe.

    I think if LB avoided those monster loses he would do much better, but it not for me to say, his money. I know he wins more than most on here. I have seen him make very good NBA, NHL, Soccer picks. No NBA right now so it is tough for a lot of us. Really, how much he bets or how much money he has doesn't matter. Picks are picks. If he was lying about restaurants or something that is a different story. It is not always easy getting called out all the time. Guy handles it pretty well.

    actually, if it werent for the "huge" plays, he'd be in deeper red than he currently is. cause he's actually hit them at a much higher rate than his normal size plays.

    as for his personal life... he invited us in. he's the one bragging about a half a million dollar renovation during a deep recession and how his 1 week take from his restaurants will easily cover the $4600 he owes his bookie. so people delving in to his personal life got the green light from him as far as that's concerned.

    Why would someone want some of you losers harassing them at their place of work? So if he posts a play and loses, some idiot can drive down to his restaurant?

    i dont understand why you wouldnt have pics handy to post instantly.... whats the delay?


    and why would anyone pass up free advertising ...


    and im in canada, private restaurants are NOT easy to run profitably and you definitely wouldnt be making money while having time to post all day long. property tax, income tax, cold climate + hydro + gas + "renovations"..... either youre a millionaire to drop 450 k on renovations or youre just starting your business , in which case you wouldnt have time or money to gamble...

    also you claim 60 hours a week youre working? if thats the case then you are probably just getting by, because if you were a restaurant owner in canada making big money you wouldnt need to work that long, with your joint already established.


    so like the restaurant is well established then? is there a name? i live in toronto i could verify for the entire board if you are telling the truth. come on son back up your statements.
