Here's a question?

Does a square play get labeled a sharp play if it wins?
(tongue in cheek question because I am so sick of hearing about sharp play this, square play that)
I'm starting to think people assign the 'sharp' label to themselves as an ego booster or a security problem thing.

I'd rather be called a square and be hitting 54% and using 'square' money management then be called a sharpy sharp and be hitting at a 47 percent clip.

No.

He gets labeled sharp if he constantly bets the same side as all the other sharps and does it at a favorable line. Over the years we have seen players bet limits reduced even though they were negative.

Good reply John.
I've been called both in the same week, I don't know what to think.
I 'cap it, I play it, that's all, I don't worry about who is on what, what percentage is on what, if my number is better than what Vegas is offering, I wager it, if it's the same, I pass.

Keep up the good work here.
