    Solid Fade Friend

    I have a buddy who is so degenerate, it's not even funny. He literally misses rent payments and often doesn't have money for food. The guy is a bum and doesn't have anyway to bet anymore so he came to me asking if I can lay bets for him if he provides the money up front... I said no problem as long as I have the cash in hand.

    Anyways, he's started out 2-4 over his first week and I don't see him getting any better so I'm going to post his plays here for all to fade.




    Gonzaga -2 [-110] $50 to win 45
    Ducks [-166] $50 to win 30

    Thanks, dj. Sounds like your friend could use some betpoints - you should get him signed up here and have him hook up with us at the SBR Bash!

    He would need to go PRO to come to the Bash... but he can't because his girlfriend locked down all his cr3dlt c4rd5/accounts so he can't post up anywhere. He pays me with the tips he makes and just tells her business is slow lol

    you are the bookie so you are even

    you are posting them here for us to fade.

    if we faded the plays, we'd be down

    "Fade" isn't $0. The bookie is $0

    Those are the plays you should have made, if you were fading.

    Exactly what I'm doing... I was just keeping a record of a general fade so people could see if it was profitable or not. Perhaps I should post his record instead and people can just see how bad he is doing like that?

    yea just post his picks, and then tally his record and +/- units. everyone gets different lines to fade him with

    This is a better way to do it I think.

    How much has this guy lost over the past year, any idea DJ?

    No idea for sure... I'd guess probably 20k or so. He's still young so he doesn't have much money to begin with. And he definitely wins sometimes because he knows his sports; he just has no time for bankroll management or anything beyond his "gut" feeling. His idea of research is checking the starting pitchers or asking a buddy what they like.

    He didn't make any plays today, maybe he was out drinking with his winnings or something but he just called me and wanted to put his profit down on the Habs.

    DJ are you actually puting the bets in for him or are you just going to pocket the money after he loses it all?

    As of right now, I haven't been fading myself. So I've just been placing his bets straight up. With his little hot streak here, I might keep booking him but just not make his plays for him and consider that my fade.

    He likes to do parlays sometimes too so I don't want to risk those. But this guy is pure mush, I'm shocked he's up this much already.

    Lightning [-107] $50 to win 46
    Louisville -3 [-105] $50 to win 47

    No way he stays this hot with this many games. No wonder the guy loses everything; if he wins, he just ramps up the bets. Pretty volatile to be fading at this point. Maybe I'll limit him to three games a day or something.
