at sports betting is to beat the closing line? Everything revolves around how to beat it?
am I wrong?

Beating the market closing no vig number = +ev. = Long term winning.

thats because the sharps found the number to be +eV and bet it so it moved the line down? Thus if you can catch it moving down and beat it at the end your ahead?

Probably the most consistent way to win long term, but I disagree that it's the only way.

Do you post to educate? Or just to help your ego?

I post to help people who want to learn the theories behind successful handicapping and for entertainment value. I'm not going to do all the work for you, just as no one did it for me.

How about a $20k wager that you can't hit over 65% in the NBA next season over 200 plays?

Monkey even if I hit 30% in the nba if you booked my action I would still be collecting off you every week trust me its not easy changing bookies every 2-3 weeks but I manage. My bookies keep switching up to try to voodoo me according to their asian beliefs lol in your case it would be cherokee beliefs

beating/not beating the closing line is just a good indicator that your bet was +EV/-EV

Is that a yes, lakergirl? It's $20k. That barely pays the insurance on your Lambo, right?

No. I want your $20k when you hit 49% in the NBA next season. I'm certain you don't have it though.

monkey i have the money trust me more than you know but if that is the case why were you afraid to post up 5k against nicky. i dont bet online and never will unless an extreme situation comes up but no need for me i have bookies to take care of my action. btw if you live in vegas you shouldnt need online action

It's called math. I might be 55% to win in a head to head against the stupid contest that Nicky proposed. Even if you had a 5% edge on every wager, which is virtually impossible, you'd have a 0.1633% chance of hitting 65% ATS.

You can take it down. I don't have time for a dopey contest like that. Why would I care what you proclaimed me to be anyway? In case you haven't noticed I don't really care what people think of me here.

figures you would say that . good point just like i dont care what people say about me but i will tell you one thing if you won you could have made some people happy but i guess that goes the other way. the only thing that confuses me is you dont have time for a dopey contest but you kept arguing with me for the last hour lol
