    Opinions on tailing others?
    I see people killing others for tailing peoples picks. It's usually the same bullshit. "Make your own picks." But, why? The only thing tailers (?) should grab shit for is tailing, losing, and then bitching about it. If you tail someones pick you have no right to bitch, moan, or verbally abuse.

    But, why don't we all tail picks? I tail a few posters and I have some friends who stop in and tail some people. Why wouldn't we all? For example, Lakerboy. The guys is a sharp. I know there are different meanings of the word sharp but the guy is beating the shit out of the NBA and to me if you can put together wins like he does you are sharp. This ****er posts huge plays and when he does you need to jump on them. Pop in his thread and go over the past two weeks and count up his record on plays that are for 5 units or more. The guy is up over 120 something units and counting so why wouldn't we all tail his big plays or give him strong consideration?

    Another guy, Williams22. Doesn't post many picks but when he does he wins. I first caught this when he had a competition with another poster and immediatley jumped out to a 5-0 start over 5 days. Now he is posting regularly in NBA and has been killing it.

    TodaysAction for MLB, guy is killing Spring Training since it started. I know Spring Training sucks to bet but the guy is doing very good.

    Kariliyan (sp?) in soccer. He is razor sharp in all those foreign leagues most of us know nothing about.

    I still make my own picks and never blindly tail but if you like money jump on these guys bandwagon. But, do your own research and just use them as another handicapping tool. If you agree, go with it, if not then simply pass. Also, don't look down on the people who tail. A ton of people on here get killed betting and while some try to keep grinding out hitting a 47% clip some are honest with themselves and decide to tail those who are better and hopefully learn something along the way.

    Not sure why I posted this but it was something that had to be said. If your exclusive to Players Talk I suggest you check these guys out. I know there are more but these are the main guys who come to mind.

    Peace and love.

      For me it was the Jewish kids. The Asian kids were always quiet and didn't talk. They weren't very sociable to anyone not of Asian descent.

        I always cap the games. Once or twice i just went down with an indian cowboy pick and hammered it. That was my biggest win ever actually.

                it makes me feel good when a guy who is sharp is on the same side of a game that I'm on.

                          I like to go down on my own ship , but it must be cool to have someone feeding info to you laying the cash and you keep winning . Another problem with that is you really don't get that feeling when you know its time to step back.

                                  before this thread get's any more racist...let me say I have tailed some of brock lander's rubberband plays, they hit at a high clip and he doesn't do them too often. he lost his shirt only because of poor money management so it's not like he can't pick games

                                    I'd rather fade someone than tail them. There are far more bad cappers than good ones.

                                      Its not about tailing, it's about FADING.

                                      I would fade gs pks, but I don't care to lay 1 unit on a +2000 ML.


                                      I fade many posters around here. Fact is, if it was easy we would all be rich.

                                      But there are plenty of posters to fade against that don't just post high f_ucking chalk plays. -200 is one thing... anything past that, you might as well give up. Look for rookies. Especially guys in high school, or college kids.


                                      There are so many young little boys on this board, it's shocking to believe the write up you read are actually composed by kids that have been gambling less than two years.



                                      Shocking
