#212I'll tell you what... let me manage your roll, and let me know what your "lock" picks are, and I will make you millions in 1-2 years... that is, assuming everything you're saying is true... and I'll tell you what, since I'm such a nice guy, I'll only take a 5% management fee, you keep the rest

#214But can anyone answer this?
So okay you get your action cut-off if you are hitting 70% in the long run. Got it.
But what if I only bet my LOCK picks and hit 90%? This will be like 1 bet a week in NFL, and maybe 2 bets/week in the NBA.
Can I continue betting LOCK picks and not get cut-off. Considering its a small sample size...
Will I have a shot at a million using this strategy before getting cut-off?Comment -

I should've added..."Theoretically" 55% is not that impressive. One would assume these so called "Professionals" could do a lot better than a retard. 5% better is not a lot. In fact, as I said, 5% better than a retard is pathetic. At least theoretically. Would you not agree with that?
For someone who claims to be "naturally intelligence" and good at math, you really do need a crash course in statistics. If you don't realize that a 5% advantage long-term is HUGE and extremely difficult to achieve, you have no business betting. How do you think linesmakers set lines? You think they're just sports fans who don't know the sport as well as you?
Oh, and again, to be a long-term winner, you won't increase your percentage by being a "better fan" than others. You are basically saying "well the average person only hits 50%, and I am a bigger fan and naturally intelligence so I will hit 20% higher..." That's exactly like saying, "I roll dice way more than the average person, so I will roll higher numbers than them 20% more often."
I highly doubt you're being honest with your claims, but even if you are, your sample size is WAY too small. It seems your arrogance will force you to find that out the hard way.Comment -

So I heard if you do well consistently (I'm not going to even say "70%" anymore since this offends people for some reason, so I'll just say "well").....if you do well over the longrun, I heard books cut you off.
However, does the same apply, over the short-run? Like if you just go say 90% (cough cough) over 20 or so bets, betting big each time, do you have the potential to make a million without getting cut-off?Comment -

Will the books cut-off my action still? Or will they actually pay me everything?
You see the same thing if someone gets "lucky" over a 20 game stretch...Comment -

#225Well I was asking, if I only bet on LOCKs. And bet BIG on my LOCKs. And say go 90% over 20 games or so. And I bet 50% of my bankroll each time...

Hey Mr 70%,try this trick
Instead of sending in plays at a winning rate of 70%,include a few losing plays(on purpose of course)just to throw the books off your trail....let the books think you`re a below 70% handicaper,this will give you more time before getting cut-off,i believe thats how all the cappers at a lifetime rate of 70% and above get it done.Comment -

#230Take all the money you planned on betting with... Put it on one game... If you win, take your winnings and stop... if you lose, take your loss and stop... you will save yourself a good amount of time. Most people lose their money long term.Comment -

#231The answer to your question is no. It's not possible to make a million and cash it.
The books will limit your action, there's a ceiling to how much you can bet, and a ceiling to how much you can cash out.
Also if you start moving large amounts of money around, you'll come under the scrutiny of the federal government.
My recommendation is to place $1,000 into each of the good books, bet $100 per pick at each book, and cash out any amount over $1,000 once a month.Comment -

#232Thanks for all the ideas guys
Thread conclusion
- As long as I win, I will make money.
- As far as getting the most out of my winnings (million dollars?), that will require some creativity and some tricks up the sleeve.
- I still stand and think I will hit about 70%, and 90% on my locks. And I will post some lock picks for everyone to make free money once I find a place where to post them .
- 15min/day is all I need. Sports Intuition > anything else in betting.
- And I think this site is overrated now. I read that "Richie" thread. LOL people were calling him a professional gambler? He called a "Preseason" game a LOCK. LMAO. Enough said. Please guys, I hope people like him are the professional gamblers out there. This is what I was talking about when I said you have to be an above average sports fan. Most these gamblers are so much stuck up on the numbers and money, they are forgetting its football. I can easily do way better than 50%.Comment -

#233even if you did win at that rate the books would shut you off and stop you that way. so it is impossible to win that much because no one would let you bet.Comment -

Like someone told you your arrogance is what is clouding you from realizing that you will hit a cold streak ... you will lose your money in the long run. the second you start playing with bigger numbers than youre used to youre Fcked.

So maybe 1-2 years wasn't realistic. Or maybe 1M in 1-2 years isn't realistic. Maybe 100k-200k in 1-2 years without any "betting" problems is more realistic. By "betting" problems, I mean all the problems NOT related to me actually winning the bets. Is 100k-200k a little more realistic?
And btw, the BR I'd start wouldn't be so small. Well we each would have our own defections of small, but I'd say when I get serious, maybe 5k-20k?
That game is what you call a bad beat... but you wouldnt know about those. hittin your 90%.
Like someone told you your arrogance is what is clouding you from realizing that you will hit a cold streak ... you will lose your money in the long run. the second you start playing with bigger numbers than youre used to youre Fcked.
Those would be my "cold" once in a lifetime year streaks.
Either way, I guess it just comes down to how creative I get at the end. Or how greedy. If I'm satisfied with 100k-200k every 1-2 years, or if I get creative/greedy and look for ways to increase that. But what will stay consistent throughout all of this is me winning my bets at high rates.Comment -

So right now I'm nowhere near the best. However, I won't put that out of my reach. Once I work math into my picks I think I have a shot at being the best. Strong Sports Intuition + Strong Math Skills = Unstoppable combination. I've already demonstrated strong sports intuition and knowledge, winning all my bets without doing any number crunching. And I'm a strong math student overall, and once I figure out how to work that in.....like I said, I have a shot at being the best ever.Comment
