Update:
I said at the beginning of the NFL year (numerous times) that I need 3 weeks to get used to each NFL team and then I make picks based on my NFL expert analysis.
Since then:
And I made a thread, where I post my ATS Picks (LOCKS) and have gone 5-0-1 ATS (100%)
And I also do ML picks in that thread. My record is posted in my signature.
Also, the past 4 weeks, as I get used to each NFL team more and more, have gone 14-5 ATS (74%)
So once again, the dilemma remains not on winning, but converting your winnings to as much cash as possible.

I never bet a -400 ML in my life. Not even -300. I can't even think of a -200 ML bet I ever made (there might be one, but I doubt it). Can you not read? My ML record is 8-4 with Avg. Odds of +112. Not -412 LOL.
And I never went 2-7 in that contest. And once again, that contest has NOTHING to do with my claims above. The main claims are "My thread". Not the contest. Though Kroy is getting destroyed in that contest.
And why is it everywhere I post you come along posting FAKE stats of mine?

I like it though
Haters coming in and needing to post totally false stats to make me look bad.
That must mean I'm doing something right

nice sample size to claim 70% and 60% as a bad week

ATS is actually irrelevant at this point. I don't even bet those anymore. I'll actually admit that I must've gotten lucky to hit 70% ATS in my stretches because there is actually too much luck involved in those.
I only bet LOCK ATS Picks (or near LOCKS). And I do hit 80-90% on those. So far 5-0-1 (All results posted my thread). And I stick with MLs these days as well. 8-4 on +112 avg. odds isn't bad. (Results posted in my thread).
So lets just ignore the ATS claims, even though I have been 74% past 4 weeks (14-5). I don't bet those games anymore.
Only
ML Bets
ATS Lock Picks
And the reason I am doing ML more often now is because teams play to win. Not cover spreads. I want the team I bet on to have the same goal as me. Besides for all of that, I finish 90+% percentile in NFL Pick'Em every year. So MLs would come naturally to me.

But anyways, this was just an update.
This still is not the topic of the thread. Its not "can he hit 90% on locks". It's GIVEN the winnings, how do you maximize the cash.
But since people turned it into a "Can he win" thread, I just wanted to provide a quick update.
Now I have done that, I'm out. Unless people want to actually discuss the topic of the thread. Which is given the winnings, how do you maximize profit.

you should be a millionaire in no time, if you hit 80-90% it shouldn't take you very long

Not necessarily. Those "Lock" picks are highly selective. 1 pick/week on average for locks (90%). And maybe 1-2 picks/week for Locks and near locks (80-90%).
But either way, with some sense of bankroll management, long way to go.
But you bring up the main topic of the thread. Even if you were winning at that high of a rate, how do you actually get paid a million dollars and by whom? Books cut off your action I heard...

If you can find 1 bet per week that is 90% (and you can't). You could find 1,000 that are 55% and you'd have your million in no time.

And on a side-note
My thread ATS (Lock) picks this year are 5-0-1.
Last forum I was on last year, my thread ATS (Lock) Picks were 7-0-1. (Links can be given to that forum)
Haters keep on hating. Not saying I never lose LOCKs (Post Week 3 when I am used to all teams and my NFL analysis kicks in), but it's rare.
I already have a lock pick this week. PM me or just check my thread and find it.

And in fact, I'm so confident, I bet someone 200 SBR points that I will hit at least 70% on my ATS Picks, which will consist mostly of Locks. I feel bad for the guy, 70% is too easy for my locks. 90% would've been a safe bet. If I were an oddsmaker, I would give that guy a +300 line with the bet he took against me.
The bad part is a minimum of 24 picks are required. I only have 6 so far (5-0-1). So I might have to force some picks in there. And last week I got banned and I went 1-0 ATS Lock pick, so that didn't' count either because I couldn't post it.

It doesn't seem like you were updating your record as the games finalized. It would be a lot easier to track your progress if you did so.

I have now. There were some controversies because I never bet them. But I finally gave in and listened to all the SBR posters and updated them too. Won't happen again, as I got banned for a week for that as well.

I'll bet you 100k you can't hit 70% of your next 50 plays at -110. You have to post up.

I guess I'm missing why you are having a problem making a ton of money if you are hitting at the rate you claim. Why would you be afraid to lay 10, 20, 50K on a game if you hit your locks at 90%? You said you were 7-0 last year, at 50K a pop and that's 350K. Do that a couple more years and your at 1Mil.
Above should show you why people are skeptical of your claims.

No that wasn't me. I think I saw that thread. And I think that was after I came here. That guy was betting baseball, NCAA, etc. I only bet NFL & NBA.

If only it was that easy.
a) Where would I bet 50k a game and expect to get paid?
b) Where would I bet that much per game and not get my action cut-off after winning consistently for over a year?
If ONLY it was easy as just winning. There is more to it. And I'm asking about the "more to it" part.

A.) Vegas, you could probably lay the 50K at one book day of, or you could spread it between 5 different books in Vegas
B.) Vegas, or win as much as you can offshore and move onto the next book.
I'll admit I'm a doubter, but I welcome all good handicappers. That's why I stick around to get input from successful handicappers. I just think if your hitting at that high of percentage, what is a couple hundred bucks for a plane ticket to Vegas to lay down thousands of dollars in bets? GL, I'm interested to see how your picks go in your other thread.
