I have been absiolutely destroying my man! How the hell he is still in business is beyond me! I hardly ever lose. And today I will whip his ass again! How are the Spurs only 5.5 favs AT HOME vs the Nuggets? Te Nuggets havent been playing so well. And San Antonio is a beast of a team! Theyve won 4 championships in the last 15 years! What has Denver won? The Spurs are awesome at home and Denver sux on the road! This is a blowout in the making! Spurs by 15.


Nuggets +5.5

[MadCapper]

So let me get this straight...the best team in the whole league is only 11.5 point favs over the worst team in the last decade? How are the Cavs only 11.5 point favorites over the shitty clippers? And to make it worse...the game is IN CLEVELAND! The Cavs never lose at home and the clippers suck on the road! This game will be a whitewash! The Cavs will win by 25. They will lead by 20 at the half. I wont even watch this game. I am already counting my winnings!

Clippers +11.5

[mintybetmachine]

where do you get the write ups?

[maersksealand]

where do you get the write ups?

Those write ups are his first thoughts about the games. He's using the George Costanza Startegy, betting against his instincts.

[MadCapper]

So my BOOKIE is telling me the SPURS only have to beat the Nuggets by a basket now?! HAHA. This is the easiest 2nd half line ever. Denver SUX!! And Melo isnt even playing! San Antonio should win by 10 still. So now I'm gonna triple up on this 2nd half line and take them to just win the game basically straight up! Thanx for the free cash...AGAIN!

Nuggets +6 (2nd Half)

[MadCapper]

How the hell are thwe freeking RED-HOIT Magic only 4.5 favorites over the lousy pathetic Pistons?! The Magic are on flippin fire. They are coming off back-back wins against the 2nd and 3rd best teams in the whole East! They beat Boston on Thursday, and absolutely CRUSHED the Hawks last night. The Pistons are a joke. They shouldnt be in the league anymore. They just lost to the Heat IN DETORIT by 60 points! How the hell are they gona even come close to this powerhouse Magic team! VC, Howard, Lewis, Nelson...SICK! The Magic will lead by 10 after 1, 20 after 2, 30 after 3 and win by 25...easily! Laying 4.5? Are you kidding me? This is as easy as it will EVER get!

Pistons +4.5

[G's pks]

not to good... maybe come up with something else...and with these picks you are destroying your books...your books what?

[lenahanj]

haha i might just start going against your picks

[MadCapper]

Oh my flipping lord. My man must be criminlally insane. The lines he put out for me today are so off that i am considering even letting himknow of his mistake! How the hell are the WORLD CHAMPION LAKERS only 1.5 point favorites against the Grizzlies? The Lakers are on FIRE! They just beat the CELTIC IN BOSTON!!!! They havent lost since 2005? The Grizzlies havent won a playoff series in their entire existence. They might be the worst franchise of alltime. How the heck can they match up vs the Lakers? And now my man is telling me the Lakers dont even have to cover ANYTHING? All they have to do is win by a basket? This is an obvious line error. Should I tell him or just pound the shit out of it and take him to the bank?

Grizzlies +1.5

[MadCapper]

Holy shit...This really must be my day! I now see that he has the BOSTON CELTICS - The team that won the CHAMPIONSHIP 2 years ago as just 5 point favorites against the WORST team ever - The WIZARDS! The Celtics are pissed off about last night! They will take their aggression out on the lowly Wizards. Rondo, Pierce, Allen, KG will dominate this Wizards team thats missing their best player in Arenas! How can they even stay within double digits of this powerhouse of a team! This wont ever be close!

Wizards +5

[MadCapper]

[JohnAnthony]

Keep your chin up **, maybe do some tweaks and backtest.

[BigDaddy]

keep at it ** you will come through.

[MadCapper]

The Kings/Nuggers total is wayyyy off. These are the 2 highest scoring teams ever. They both dont play defense and love tom run. Heck I dont think they know what defense is. These totals are usually listed in the 220's. Today its only 210 Thats a 10 point mistake by my man. I'm telling you..everyone has to start using my man. His lines are so off! And he never cancels any of my bets on these bad lines. Plus he never decreases my limits! He only increases them! This game might reach 210 midway thru the 4th. I see 230 tonight!...EASILY!

UNDER 210

[ludger]

Keep any eye out for it.

[MadCapper]

Thanx

[AzNDooM]

Not sure what your system is but your stats are in conflict with what maeksrsealand wrote, its 8-13 and you have it as 13-8? In addition, your write ups are confusing, you wrote inregards to ORL being a powerhouse and destroying PISTONS however you placed bet on pistons +4.5?

Very conflicting data... just thought id let you know. BOL

[DeluxeLiner]

Those write ups are his first thoughts about the games. He's using the George Costanza Startegy, betting against his instincts.

Madcapper is a well established gambla who knows what he is doing... these aren't his instincts, this is ** emulating what he thinks Joe Square thinks. He then fades Joe Square.

Love that episode of Seinfeld btw... Elaine goes downhill and Jerry stays even...good stuff.

That answer your question AznDoom

[SamsNCharge99]

so overall losing as I suspected

[MadCapper]

I havent had a losing day in a year now...or it seems! My man keeps putting out terrible lines and I am destroying him. I'll admit I got lucky on a few last night...but I make my own luck! I'm still shocked he hasnt cut my limits. He actually called me to tell me hat he was raising my limits. What a dope! I will destroy him. I might have to find a new bookie soon. Because the way I've been pounding him...he wont last passed the Superbowl!!

There is one game so far that sticks out like a sore thjumb for me on tonights card. But Im sure I will find some more. My man is so bad at linemaking! How the hell is the totla of the Warriors/Rockets game so freekin high!!! This is the Rockets. They are one of the best defensive teams of all time! They never give up anything. And now he has the total close to 220? Are you kidding me? This isnt the Nuggets/Kings or the Warriors/Kings or the Nuggets/Warriors. This is the HOUSTON FREEKING ROCKETS! The team that always wins on defense and smart ball movement! Ariza and Battier are tremendous defensive players. So is banger Scola! I will be shocked if they give up 100 points tonight. And we KNOW thy themselves cant score over 100 either. So this total is a good 20 points off! Too bad! I'm gonna pound it!

OVER 219

[Fishhead]

Goodjob **

[Fishhead]

Poster 1st and Ten......potential SBRTV superstar?

Whoops

[G's pks]

very confusing thread! you say you are winning...the guy doing your record keeping for you says you are losing badly... what is going on in here Costanza?

[MadCapper]

Can someone explain to me why the Rockets are ONLY 6 point favs at home against the 3rd worst team in the league. The Warriors are downright atrocious! They have been beat by everyone! I cant remember the last time they won a game..or came close to winning! Didnt they just get killed by the freeking Bobcats in GOLDEN STATE? I als remember them losing to Scaramento! They play with a small rotation because of injuries too. I would have made the Rockets 6 point favorites IN Golden State...But they are home! And above .500. And they are fighting for a playoff birth! They should win this game by double digits pretty easily!

Warriors +6

[MadCapper]

very confusing thread! you say you are winning...the guy doing your record keeping for you says you are losing badly... what is going on in here Costanza?

Ok just to make things clearer (BOLDER).

I thought by now everyone would catch on.

Obviously, I have been mistaken....

So here it goes:

First off...As a bettor...I, myself, NEVER EVER have LOCKS..GAME OF THE YEARS, CENTURIES, MILLEMIUMS, etc...

When I write that...I am posting (or speaking) as a SQUARE. "Wow what a dumb line...FREE MONEY...LOCK of the DECADE" Squares and the avg JOE PUBLIC tend to do this when they see something that looks soooo good...and most of the time...they end uyp getting killed. Thats why the books are in business!

When I start with an INTRO of "I've been killing my man!" or "I havernt lost in a year"...thats once again me speaking as the Square!

Second, The writeups are SQUARE speak! They are what the SQUARE is thinking when he sees these lines. The SQUARE knows LEBRON and KOBE are gods. The SQUARE knows the LAKERS, CAVS, CELTICS are freeking amazing. The Rockets, Jazz, and Spurs play fanastic defense. He doesnt know that the upstart Grizzlies, Bobcats, Thunder even exist! So the SQUARE writes up these games just how he plans on playing it. I believe that SQUARES get killed in NBA...so my plays are the BOLD plays and they are always the exact opposite of the writeup.

Finally, SQUARES dont lose ALL the time. The SQUARE has actually going 9-2 over the last 3 nights. But we all know a SQUARE's success doesnt last long. They are the ones that keep the books in business by constantly reloading.

I do apologize to anyone who recently jumped abaord this ANTI-SQUARE train and lost money. Its short term and I know it will turn around.

I also apologize to the people who were either confised or mislead by my technique. I hope you all get it now!

Lets win some money!

My SQUARE definately thinks he will go 3-0 tonight. Hell...HE ALWAYS THINKS HE WILL GO UNBEATEN!

Good Luck!

[MadCapper]

I just dont get this line. This seems way too easy! How are the Raptors only 1 point favorites against Indiana? Indiana downright sux this year! While Toronto is one of the best teams in the East! And didnt Toronto just demolish Indiana by 20? Now all they have to dow is WIN? They are basically laying nothing. If they win by one freeking basket I cash in. This line is so off its crazy! Toronto is loaded...Bosh, Hedo, Bargnani, Calderon. They will carve up the Pacers swiss cheese defense and win by 15...AGAIN!

Pacers +1

[tonyhomo]

this thread shows how dumb some posters here are

[teecee]

This is hilarious, dude. Keep it up.

[Quagmire27]

But we all know a SQUARE's success doesnt last long. They are the ones that keep the books in business by constantly reloading.

Vig & parlays are what keep the books in business.

But good luck with your system, you as the square is a fun read.
