Fab Five picks

[CanuckG]

You're not even betting...just chasing now with imaginary units to try and save face.

Next.

[DMAVS]

If you dont want me to "chase" as you call it, then I will change the units..

it will be 5,4,3,2,1 going down the list

People always have something to say..

[CanuckG]

Yeah but you aren't actually putting money on these plays so what's the point? All I'm getting at..

[DMAVS]

Showing people that i can have a positive over a certain amount of time, canuck you can just leave and not come back if you dont care..

[CanuckG]

Nah I'm good

[MartinBlank]

Mavs,

Canuck raises a good point though. If you are not betting on these games, what is your point in all of this? Is this just for fun?

I am curious too.

I have always said that it was for fun, and if anyone wants to take my picks whenever I am doing to good.. power to them.

Part of it is also to show how good/bad i am..

4/5 picks

Seattle vs Texas over 8 1/2 -115 (5units) LOSS
Philadelphia +6 (4 units) LOSS
Denver -4 1/2 (3 units) LOSS
OKC vs Denver over 205 1/2 (2units) LOSS
LAA vs TAM over 7 1/2 (1 unit) WIN

Rough night kid.

1-4, and losing 15.4 units.

To date, what is that, 4-11 and down 20 units.

Ouch.

The funny part is the only game you won was the one with me. Your balance to me is now 700 points.

I am just going to list my wagers here for you instead of in PMs.

[MartinBlank]

My bet with you today is Cincinnati on the RL (-1.5). I have the Reds. Bet is 150 points. This is going off at -105.

[rfr3sh]

SSK!!!

[cant call it]

Why would you start the 66% guaranteed thread when you are only betting for fun? You should definitely make the first line in thread say "I am not betting money on these, so even though I guarantee 66%, you shouldn't follow because its dangerouns to tail someone who guarantees picks with no money behind them"

Martin i guess i won 156 yesterday with +104 odds.. so total is 844

I guess we are not giving me games to pick, so I will just pick the game for today.. and you pick tomorrow
I want the Denver vs Minnesota under 213 pick today for 150 points

[MartinBlank]

Mavs....we are alternating games.

You lost Denver/Minny under, bringing your debt balance back to 994.

You went 3-2 yesterday, but you still had a losing day, losing 3 units.

Since you didn't list it, I gave you the best line I could find for the 2nd Texas game, at -120.

You are now 12-22 in this thread, down 32.9 units.

-5
2.6
.9
-4
+2.5

Tonight it is my turn to pick.

I am taking the Yanks on the Run Line. I should be getting +135 at a minimum, but I will forgo the odds, and just bet you even money.

Yanks -1.5 runs for 94 points.

Looks like I won this bet.. 900 points

Just for future reference, If the person making the pick is going to take the underdog they should get the line.. dont you think?

And if you/I pick a favorite the other person should the underdog line, but the underdog line shouldnt be more than +150.. deal?
No limit on the underdog odds if you pick the dog.. so you can pick a +500 odd underdog, but the other person gets even odds no matter what

Tomorrow I will make it even by picking a underdog of my own

Texas Rangers +125 I will make it even since you did (150 points)

[DMAVS]

4/11 picks

Texas Rangers +120 (5 units)
over 8 tx vs det (4)
Dallas Mavericks -2 1/2 (3 units)
MInnesota +9 (2 units)
Boston -155 (1 unit)

Sounds fine.

But---and this is just something I want to point out.

In your bet with me you have Texas +125.

But in your 5-pick list, you have Texas +120.

Which is it?

[DMAVS]

It changed between those two times.. for my 5 pick its +120

I am making it even for our bet, because you made an underdog pick yesterday and made it even.. just to be fair
But after today we will use the underdog lines

[bruceBRUCEbruce]

People are saying that i am losing money with a winning record on my picks in my threads, but you really cant figure that out if i didnt post units to begin with. So i am going to start using units, to show people how good I really am

we need a *train wreck* smilies thingie. oh my goodness, this guy couldn't pick his nose with 50 fingers.

[DMAVS]

Martin, down to 750 points

If you want to make another bet with your pick, we can since there is a full load of picks left

[dfberger23]

Thanks for the fades.

[MartinBlank]

I am taking the Pirates today.

+101. Just make it even.

I have the Pirates for 150 points.

Debt stands at 750.
