SBR BEST BET THREAD - Sunday August 28th, 2011

[chemicalbrother]

Post your strongest bet of the day. You can use any sport you want, all types of straight wagers accepted, just make it clear.

You may play money lines but only between -500 and +500.

Scoring: -110 is risking 1.10 to win 1.00 and +110 is risking 1.00 to win 1.10 and so on.

Post your record along with the play, the line, the odds, and the book. Please use American odds, not decimal.

Using "SBR Book" and "Local" are not acceptable sources and your wager will not be graded.

For MLB wagers, both listed pitchers must start in order for your bet to be valid unless stated "Action" for the game.

For soccer and tennis bets, list the date, time, the opponent and how draws and retirements are to be graded.

Do not edit your post or it will be graded as a -330 loss. Plays must be posted before the official start time.

***NO RECORD, NO LINE, NO ODDS, NO BOOK = NO ACTION***

everything from Saturday has been graded. if i made a mistake, please let me know so i can adjust your units accordingly.

[chemicalbrother]

General Custer, thank you once again for the points donation, much appreciated!

[chemicalbrother]

daily alwaysdrawing update has him at 6-0 +7.66u!

i would like to give a huge thanks to yogohama for making me pore through the bundesliga results page. really organized and non-english friendly. second time will be easier, but i'll be damned if i didn't have to go back and forth between his two teams and the results page 8 times.

mr. leisure still sitting on 299 wins, c'mon buddy! tomorrow's the day!

finally, those that know me personally (none of you) know that i named my cat 'anderson' after anderson silva, the mma fighter from brazil. if you didn't catch his fight tonight, try to find it tomorrow. round 2 absolutely shows the world's greatest fighter. he goes into this untouchable matrix/ninja ultra-aggressive mode where it's like he's 1 second ahead of real life. truly one of the greatest fighters ever and probably literally THE most dominating athlete alive right now.

[chemicalbrother]

everything should be all set and ready to go for sunday...can alwaysdrawing keep his perfect record??

Chembro,

Just wanted to let you know that you're doing an awesome job with the thread!

More importantly, how 'bout that win by the Tribe tonight! Wow!

Cheers to you!

two honest-to-god smiles happened just now:

1st one was you telling me i'm keeping your thread rolling. everyone's susceptible to praise, and that made me happy. (also, droobs is a 'g', was watching live as i always am watching..)

2nd one was being in the bottom 10. haha! badge of shame, i know, but regression to the mean itt has gotta happen eventually, right?

[chemicalbrother]

hey if you're still reading this, i still would love to read a quick history of this thread. have you always done it? 4 years +/- is how long it's been going on? any early stories you could share?

When I joined the forum back on 1-2-09, Kaps was running the thread and he ran it very well.

The great thing is that there is always someone willing to step up and keep it alive.

I know yisman also did a great job grading over the past couple of years.

There have been several other graders between now and then.

BeatTheJerk, Richkas, jmathes and treece are a few others that come to mind...

My apologies if I left anyone out, but there will always be someone that will keep this train rolling!

and thanks, ss. it's just curious to me that this thread has lasted as long as it has, and with as many people to step up even though it costs you 15ish minutes a night.

and thanks, ss. it's just curious to me that this thread has lasted as long as it has, and with as many people to step up even though it costs you 15ish minutes a night.

Once you get the hang of it, the grading becomes easier.

Many nights when the volume was heavier, it took me a solid 30+ minutes to grade.

The mainstream sports aren't so bad, but the lesser known sports can sometimes take a while to find.

It definitely takes more time when we have several sports all in season.

I used to grade it 3-4 years ago or so. Madcapper started the thread in its beginning. Whats typical is that guys go on a losing streak then quit posting their plays, a few have even managed to have their records get zeroed out and it wasnt caught. Beat The Jerk was the king at 50 units at one time, I doubt that we will see that kind of run ever again. Me I almost got to hitting 50% once, (LOL) but thats as far as I seem to be able to get.
