Faders go get em! Best of luck make sure to keep your thread for at least thirty days so we can see all your profits.Comment -
I would not say fading is a great idea but at this moment neither is following.Comment -
I agree, most know there are only two great fades that are consistent, I do love when people start these fade the cowboy threads because it shuts them up after a week at the most. That sheepdog is just annoying and needs put down! I only play his CBB so say what you will.Comment -
I dont even fade the Lang or Quinn or follow, I just am not into the whole fading thing, to each his own though. I just dont know why everyone gets so defensive when someone does start the Fade IC thread. Most times it is just people that are trying to get other riled up or just want the controversy. If he is the capper that most believe he is and defend him fiercly in that regard than the faders will learn their own lesson by loosing money. I just say let them do their thing if they fade they fade and we will see what happens. I just want some capper to go on a run here so I can make some more money, in the last two weeks I dont think I have had two winning days in a row and that blows.

agreed - I don't like to fade either........ If someone is cold just dont follow them. But you couldn't pay me to follow IC, people act like that guy is a GOD because he had one hot stretch in CBB, but he was AWFUL before that and has been AWFUL since. He does occasionally go on a hot streak, when I would say jump on and play his picks until he loses, but overall the guy is a joke. And I love how many people on here talk about him like he is the best thing invented since the blow job!!!!

I think when it comes down to it everyone has had luck with some cappers and think they are the best, and other times people hear someone is good so they jump on right when they go on a loosing streak and then they hate them with a passion. There is no way that everyone will ever agree on who the best is, who is or isnt a scammer, or who is just plain scum, everyone has had different experiences, some could have alterior motives who knows. I guess the part that I dont get is why everyone here on this forum is here to try to win money instead of always bitching at each other try to help each other out. I know it is just wishful thinking because human nature is to be happy when someone else fails and want to rub it in when they win. I am just as guilty of all of these things as anyone else, just sucks cause I think we are all here to win money(minus the shills they are here to scam our money).

Right Now I think Jimmy Boyd is the best one going.........
Over the course of an entire year I have followed these guys for years, and their overall % of wins is always in the mid 60's
- Ness
- Big Al
- Oskeim Sports
- Al Demarco (I wouldnt touch anyone else on his site, but he is usually pretty solid)
THere are a few others I will follow when they get hot, but these are the most profitable over the long haulComment -
The mistake people make is they are to quick to say someone is awful or someone is great. Every capper is going to go on a hot streak and then a cold streak, it is just the nature of the business. What seperates them are the ones who can make money over the long haul, that is how you have to look at it. To often I hear people rip cappers on this site because they had a couple losing days, or praise them as the 2nd coming if they hit 4 or 5 in a row. That is just not how this worksComment -
Thats my point though I am sure there is plenty of people here that have horrible things to say about them. IC's records have been in the 60's for a while and last season, but you dont like him. I just think there is no way everyone wont argue. Thanks though I am going to start to really look into a lot of cappers now and see if it is better to just try to cap my own games I cant be any worse than a lot of these guys out there. Someone who guesses is probably a lot better than a lot of cappers.

I think if you're going to fade anyone, you should do so consistently. Most people that fade Lang have done alright. The problem with fading sporadically is you will typically miss out on the start of a cold streak, and then by the time you start going against the capper, things flip and you lose on the back end. Similar to the craps player that is losing on the "pass" line and then gets whipsawed when he bets "don't pass". My biggest issue with IC is that I have never seen a capper that can be so hot and then go so cold. It's like one extreme or the other (never seems to be in between). You really have to have a lot of fortitude to hang in there when he goes cold (but are generally rewarded if you do). It's like the people on the stock market that just can't handle any more losses and then capitulate (only to miss out on the run up).Comment -
why does he play o/u in hockey instead of ml?Comment -
Why does he play hockey at all he's a 50% at best but i think it's doc's idea to make moneyComment -
he has to pick a play of the major sports everyday they have a game(minus all-star games). This is what is must be because I have never seen him miss a day or pass on a sport when there is a crappy card. If he doesnt then Docs cant collects $$ on the daily sport package.Comment -
Comment -
I agree with you on that (he recently picked a NHL game when it was the only game of the day)
What I find even stranger is that he NEVER picks 2 paid picks on a same sport the same day... I know IC wants to be very selective and that is part of its strategy but I can hardly believe he cannot see 2 or 3 games with good value on a big CBB Saturday card. Any thoughts about that ? is it IC or Docs decision ?Comment -
I couldnt say for sure but I would think that it all comes down to selling the picks, if he finds value in say 3 cbb picks but doesnt pick a NHL or NBA it is a lot harder to sell those picks seperatly. Also people that buy whole season packages are expecting a pick in the sport they purchased and would prob want some sort of refund or credit if he doesnt make pick that day. If he picks more of one sport than another people would only buy that package because it would be the most worth it. Once again this all speculation but it makes sense to me.I agree with you on that (he recently picked a NHL game when it was the only game of the day)

I believe this is only IC's personal preference to must play 1 game per day per sport. Doc's other cappers for instance Ferringo [whom I paid for his plays previously] sometimes don't have a play for a certain sport on that day if he doesn't see anything he likes.Comment -
you dont think that they are treated different I am sure IC has more subscribers than Ferringo? Anyways that would make me trust his plays less because there are days where there is only three games and all of them are very hard to find value in, so you think he forces himself?Comment -
There is a reason...and it is not just a coincidence that there is always just 1 play every day for every major sport...because of this process there is great value lost and a great amount of unnecessary risk...he should rethink his objectives, unless it is to make money before winning money.Comment -
I agree with this. On average he has to be losing tons of value on big cards, and pushing marginal betting spots on other cards. I think his output would improve if his system of 1 pick daily per sport wasn't soo constrictive. That said, he is one of the very last people in these threads who I would fade.Comment -

Yesa Masta!

Hockey cashes early for once instead of loosing early on an under. I will be honest though I didnt bet this pick cause of him another capper I like had it, if it was only IC i wouldnt have played it.Comment -
