The 15 Rules

[BeatTheJerk]

the odds on this kinda Scenario happening is like 30/1 ............ no ?

sorry wrong thread

[TheLock]

James Richard Harden fellas

17th rounder from 2000

[Hoja Verdes]

Hoja

I'm like 99% sure he has posted ALL of his 2 teamers in 2008 (that's what you're alluding to right?)

I don't post here much, but this thread has certainly piqued my curiosity.

I congratulate him on his success thus far, but am only interested in seeing his 2-gamers from now until the end of the season.

[St. Andrew]

25 bets is an insanely small sample size.

So is 50, but I'm willing to take my chances there.

I propose:

1) 50 2 team parlays from now till the end of the baseball season or till you hit 50
2) Use lines from the Greek -- you must post in a thread we will create with the odds of the two games at the time (so they can be verified via SBRlines in case of discrepancies)
3) Your parlay odds can be +140 and above.
4) If you win 30 parlays or more you win, 29 or less and I win.

I will pay 3/1 odds.

I am going to be away on work-related business from Aug 21 to Sept 17. Not sure I can do 50. 40?

[St. Andrew]

2-Team Parlay Record: 17-11
Bank: $1,027

Monday

Cubs/Angels (+156)

$93 to win $145

- Zona 2-7 in Unit's last 9
- Harden hasn't given up more than 2 ERs since June 8 (A's)
- Cubs outscoring Zona in last 10 games 5.1 to 4.5


- Byrd gives up 1 HR every 3.4 innings on the road
- Byrd is 1-8, 6.94 on the road
- Santana at night: 10-2, 2.99

I will count tonight in this bet even though Cleve has the early lead.

You must understand that the bigger the sample size, your chances of winning this bet approach 0. So, your only chance is a small sample size where you get lucky.

For example:

Your chances of winning this bet over 40 games is approx: 1.2%
Over 50 games it is .52%
and over 500 games it is .0000000000000009%

So, sure I'll offer +300 over 40 games.

How much do you propose, sir?

[durito]

How much do you propose, sir?

Whatever you want. But anything serious you will have to post up with someone from SBR.

Now we're talking!

There's got to be a way to guarantee you would pay me.

[jtuck]

There's got to be a way to guarantee you would pay me.

matchbook

[St. Andrew]

I'll tell you what, let's just do $300 and have a gentlmenaly promise to pay. If I stiff you, broadcast it and ban me. Mods have my IP.

[donjuan]

There's got to be a way to guarantee you would pay me.

Using an escrow service (professional or a moderator/mutually agreed upon poster) or perhaps creating an x-bet on Matchbook would work. The downside of the x-bet is the commission and that you need a 3rd party to grade the bet.

[durito]

For $300, sure I'll trust you.

Kelly's a bit upset, he wanted me to bet 92% of my bankroll

Do we have a deal? I will start a thread where you can post your plays -- you cannot edit posts or its a loss. any mistake and correct it in a new post.

If you stiff me and I call you out on it, I get banned I guess.

[St. Andrew]

Deal, start the thread.

Lock, please PM me an email address.

[BeatTheJerk]

durito would pay ...............
St.Andrews would just get the fuk outta dodge .

Now that's offensive. I'm a man of my word.

[smitch124]

Jeez, this is horrible...

[BeatTheJerk]

just my opinion don't mean i'm right ........... no offense playa

[durito]

this thread has almost proved $900 in entertainment value for me alone

[smitch124]

Good Luck St. Andrew, I'll be pulling for you, but thats a really horrific bet...

[durito]

Thread is started in the baseball section.

Don't worry about payment. There is an 100% chance you will be paid if you win.

[BuddyBear]

wish i had booked it

I could really use the extra money right now....

[SBR Lou]

I haven't read the entire thread yet, but as far as the rules in the OP, not all will apply to everyone but that's the beauty of gambling. Every bettor has their own way of going about things, whether you agree or disagree the fact that he took the time to write and share all of his habits should be appreciated.

[Hoja Verdes]

I can personally vouch for Durito. He and I have had plenty of 'internet handshake' bets and he is a total professional, a man of his word.

[BuddyBear]

Crazy--how did you get so far down with your tennis bets? I haven't been following but weren't you up like 10 units last week?

[durito]

I'd be happy to turn over the bet to you buddy. I don't really have the time to monitor a thread for 2+ months for $300.

Sure, that sounds great! I am going on a weekend trip that will probably cost that much. It would be really great if that could be paid for.

So, yes, I'll do it....

A couple of big favorites nosedived.

OK, so as to not confuse St. Andrew, I will keep responsibility for the bet with him.

You can track the bet in the baseball forum and make sure it's on the up and up. When he loses I'll have him send you the $300.

Durito, you're on the dime for $900 should I win.

You are comfortable with this?

Of course, I made the bet. Anything on the side is between me and buddy.
