    Not leaving, post a little less and won't post my picks anymore. Add this pick to my picks thread and I'm just shy of 42 Units up. Fukkin no one here has those numbers, so I feel like the help that some people desperately need isn't being taken so I won't offer.

    Dude, the only people that get views are the drama queens.

    Winning is secondary.

    Season-long threads are for the individuals that make them, not for views.

    If you want to be seen more, start a thread daily, tell a story about needing to hit this game to pay your mortgage otherwise you're out on the street, all in, etc.

    I guess I don't like thinking like that. People with stories are the kind of people around my parts who drive a 2001 Civic and worry about making enough money at work to buy a 6 pack of Busch Light. Knowledgeable people who have money/know what the fukk they're talking about are the ones who get attention here. Not dumbasses with a story. But to each their own.

    This is pretty accurate, I mean only time I really get views is NCAA Hoops thread in the sub forum...

    But Season long threads just aren't worth it...

    See all this shit certain people get on here because they don't have one thread for everything. Bubble giving himself a heartattack because Benny doesn't have one. People asking LT to make one instead of 17 threads a day. Can't win for losing with it.

    Want for nothing but people follow what I think is easy $ and letting me know they take my advice to mean something other than some jackoff trying to look cool. Like a lot of people here I deep down wish this could be what I do for a living so a lot of it is serious business.

    Thanks for the quadruple shutout!

    yeah I agree with you, a year long threads are a waste of time man...do your own thing and make cash...if at some point in the future you would feel like sharing your picks here I'll be looking forward to it

    Hippo, you're a good gambler and solid poster. Fukk everything else.

    There are 2.5 people on this forum that get attention, but aren't douchebags and are also soild posters and good gamblers. (by my calculation).

    There are more than a handful of solid posters and good gamblers on this forum, that get little attention.

    Point being, you don't want attention in PT - the odds are stacked against you to maintain.

    Hippos video was a shining example that no matter what happens gamblers are never happy.

    If they lose, obviously they're miserable.

    If they win, they're unhappy they didn't win more.

    You just won $1500, Hippo. That trumps 1500 internet handjobs.

    It's time to prioritize.

    Take care, don't be a stranger.

    greenerhippoer, as always, you are good peoples. I kind of have to echo other posters' sentiments though...you shouldn't be getting mad that you're picks aren't getting attention. A season long picks thread is good to keep things organized and good for an internal monologue and for posters to cheer each other on. Some people tail, some people like to discuss upcoming games. If you just post a pick, it's hard to do anything other than tail, wish you luck, or disagree. Without a bunch of added insight, there isn't much else there besides a pick. Once the pick is in, there's no discussion. However, if you say, hey should I tease this? Or do I need extra points here? A discussion can ensue. It's hard to interact once your mind is made up.

    Congrats on your big win, but when 5 of your 6 picks won ATS, you didn't need to tease them. You lost a ton of value there. You unnecessarily sweat out that Texans game when you could have went 4-0 on NCAAF ATS on Saturday and won the over in the NYG/Denver game pretty easily. You should really only tease NFL and you should never tease totals, just gambling 101 for me (took me a while to figure that out). I popped in your thread after the Oregon game and mentioned that teasing NCAAF was -EV and tried to pass on some shit I learned with teasers. I'm not saying this to be an ass, just trying to let you know that if you post an idea or a suggestion, it creates an open dialogue. Then, other posters can try and chime in. I know I mentioned to a few people on here thinking about teasing Louisville not to, because they wouldn't need it. I also made it a 2u play and threw it in BTP. Shit like that opens up discussion and posters can riff on it. Shit is a grind and sometimes picks get tossed out, but sometimes good discussions can evolve. That being said, it's obvious you're doing well, but we can all pick up on shit and learn new things from fellow posters, so hopefully you stick around. Again, congrats on the win pal!

    Hippo says he posts winners and no one reads his threads or congratulates him after wins but is telling Jayvegas to try posting winners and someone will read his threads... confused..... Hippo just needs some friends people.
