    Knock. Some things are not adding up here. You claim to be in the 1% club of winning sports gamblers. You claim you have done this for over 20 years and that you have the proof to back it up on 4 different sites over the past two decades because you post all of your plays. 

    Then, after 20 years of WINNING, you posted yesterday that you are still wagering $100 a game. Your words, as you wrote yourself, seem pretty unbelievable to me. I would expect ANYONE that has 40 consecutive winning seasons and 20 years of being in the 1% club would be gambling more than $100 per game. Why would anyone with 20 years of winning under their belt still be betting like a recreational gambler. No one that read your posts would believe what you say because of this fact.

    Why are people so bent on building up their ego that they have to promote themselves in a thread devoted to resolving a theoretical but important question? Who cares about knockonwood, let him think his lies, but bro, why pat yourself on the back here? Nobody cares about anything you have achieved that isn't posted here. Stop being an indignant narcissist and go post some winners!

    Dude killing time is not necessarily the same as wasting time. Why waste your time explaining yourself to people who won't believe you without posted evidence? Try to enjoy your life bro

    I suppose since I'm a lifetime donator to the cause (along with everyone else that I know personally), it's hard for me to believe that lifetime winners exist. Congrats on your success!
