ANother one of THESE guys

**GoCougs!** · 02-17-11, 12:25 PM

I am very interested in how this goes, not on a gambling level, because I believe ML betting in not the way to win $$. I am interested to see how the thread falls apart like all his previous ones.

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-17-11, 12:57 PM

Do you expect threads to go on forever, GoCougs? Naturally they'll end sooner or later.

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-17-11, 01:00 PM

GoCougs...Maybe you're right that betting the ML for a very long period of time isnt the way to make the most money. However I have been doing pretty good lately and just wanted to share it with you guys, so no need for the criticism.

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-17-11, 01:03 PM

No picks for today, guys.

**YorkHunt** · 02-17-11, 01:06 PM

Is that because you lost a lot of money on the Lakers last night cole?

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-17-11, 01:15 PM

No freakin way i bet the lakers with those odds. My max is around -250 and its usually not even that high.

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-17-11, 01:16 PM

I dont know who Cole is but you can call me Cole or Dave or Frank...dont really matter.

howdy mitchell, good win last night.
you still starting your competition with martin today?

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-17-11, 01:29 PM

Im not really here for a competition but I told martin to post the plays before I do because he claimed he knows exactly what teams im going to pick. He probably wont post any because we both know he would just be guessing.

I dont have a pick for today. Won the first 2 tho so thats good.

**ebbearsfb1** · 02-17-11, 06:28 PM

nice start 2-0 up 200..

**MartinBlank** · 02-17-11, 08:04 PM

Sports---I thought we were going to have a friendly competition?

**MartinBlank** · 02-17-11, 08:05 PM

There isn't going to be a selection today because---well, there isn't any heavy chalk.

SBG said he only likes chalk in the -180 and higher range.

**nikossf** · 02-18-11, 12:32 AM

Selective capper,.nothing wrong with that. As long as he wins.. Maybe thats why he was saying he had such a great record. Picks and chooses his games.. If so,..Take notes rookies!

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-18-11, 11:12 AM

I have a lot to do today and wont have time to pick the right game. No pick for today. Martin, if you'de like go ahead and post picks....no one is stopping you.

**cant call it** · 02-18-11, 01:25 PM

dont see any games listed for today

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-19-11, 01:14 PM

Todays picks is on german basketball. TBB Trier to beat Eisbaren Bremerhaven. Livescore.com and flashscore.com are a couple good places to check scores.

**Dirty Sanchez** · 02-19-11, 01:30 PM

German Basketball

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-19-11, 01:32 PM

Oh yea....the ML is -240 at 5dimes on TBBTrier. German or american you can just as easily bet it at a lot of sportbooks

**Dirty Sanchez** · 02-19-11, 01:35 PM

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-19-11, 05:00 PM

TBB Trier lost today by a basket. Record is 2-1. -$40.00 so far. Thats ok, it starts out that way sometimes. If I just got lucky in the past and continually lose money on this thread then I'll be the first to say that this method of picking games doesnt work and i'll stop. But if its anything like the past then this is just a speed bump.

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-20-11, 01:12 PM

Todays pick is on tennis. A. Roddick to beat M. Raonic. ML is -235 at bookmaker.

**cant call it** · 02-20-11, 01:14 PM

Good luck buddy

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-20-11, 01:19 PM

Thanks, cant call it. I hope to have a great record on here and show all the nonbelievers I wasn't b.s.ing them before about the great record.

**str** · 02-20-11, 02:12 PM

Want to be sure that you realize that I am not hating or bashing or whatever on you.What I am going to do is try to save you some money if you indeed are making these plays with real cash.
There is no way to turn a profit playing 1-2 or 2-5 shots. Watched guys try to do this for decades( yes decades) with baseball, horses,baskets,you name it.And believe me, they were not dummies. Some were quite successful in many ventures.But not when they tried to do this.Just thought I would let you know.
Again, I could care less and it does not matter. Just trying to pass along some solid info and advise to you and anyone that try's to do this.
It will not work over an extended period of time.Not maybe,will not.I promise.

**ttwarrior1** · 02-20-11, 02:31 PM

your still letting cole bartiromos friend post ?

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-20-11, 07:36 PM

Str, thanks for the info. You've been doing this longer than I have and i'm very teachable so i'll listen to what you have to say. Im betting small enough to where its not a big deal if I lose though. If I lose and lose and lose and lose then i'll stop this method for good. But I guess I gotta keep tracking it to see for myself I guess but at least im not betting rent money or anything like that.

Today's tennis pick won. So record is 3-1. Up $60.

**tony_come** · 02-20-11, 07:39 PM

And, in a nut shell, this is STR's point...

You've hit 75% and are up $60.

You won't continue to hit 75% and you will lose money if you continue in this endeavor.

**MartinBlank** · 02-20-11, 09:20 PM

Sportsbettinguy....

I have been posting my plays---they are available on my spreadsheet.

I am 5-2, and I am up 345 dollars betting 100 bucks per game (1 unit), same as you. You're winning % is higher than mine----75%-71%, you are up 60 bucks, while I am up 345 bucks.

At some point, you are going to realize the math in this and you will realize there is more value in finding a live dog----than there is in betting into chalk.

Tomorrow Kent State is going to be an underdog against WMU-----and I think there is huge value in Kent State. I will wait that one out too, because I think the ML number is going to get pretty tasty the longer I wait that one out.

Anyway, good luck to you.

**sportsbettingguy** · 02-21-11, 12:20 PM

Martin, do you have a link to where you're posting your picks? Ide like to see how they're doing for myself. And see how much they make after a couple months like Im doing. Just want to find picks that make the most money.

Todays pick is on italian soccer. Varese to beat frosinone. ML -184
