    And he's made 175 total picks so far. So after juice, to be up "50 Units" but only hitting 54% would mean that his average size "Unit" bet would've had to be around 3.25 Units.

    But that's not what LC's betting history has shown. Instead like you said, on most days he's been "significantly reducing his "standard" unit as just an excuse to make a marginal bet which may very well be EV-."

    So he's had to have made at least several bets over the season which were in excess of even 5 Units for example. And that's something a tout would do. I'm not saying he's a tout because I don't think he is - but doing something like that is classic tout behavior.

    This is why at the end of the day the 54% speaks far more loudly than any "Unit" fudging he's done. And this is why I said from the very beginning that "Units" don't necessarily tell an accurate story.

    Like you wisely said above, the term "Unit" has become so overvalued that it's not even worth mentioning anymore.

    these 2 morons should be banned from this immediately .. toescanadadream who was consistently posting sharp underdog plays is already gone from this site because of this fraud Dos Los character .. Dos Los covers already banned your tout list thread now its time to ban you from this site permanently

Now disappear into that cave dwelling where your alt leaves and go back to posting in your "winning" capper thread, whoever you are.
    "Units" don't necessarily mean anything you simpleton. And people who post a "Unit" amount next to their bets don't make them any "better" than those who don't.Let's see if you understand this most basic concept - As noted earlier there's a documented 31 other guys here who are vastly superior in the NBA than LC. If each of those 31 guys had to assign a "Unit" value for each of their picks (some already do, some don't), they would be up HUNDREDS OF MORE "Units" than LC. Anywhere from 200 to 500 MORE "Units" than him in fact.Because the higher Winning % someone has, the more "Units" they'll make unless they try being fraudulent with their Units by greatly increasing them on occasion to make their profitability appear better (i.e. tout behavior).Please tell us all that you at least understand that much? Or is that most basic numerical concept beyond your realm of comprehension?
    Units mean everything. We bet to make money. UNITS=MONEY
    I´m with you. I praise and thank LC on a regular basis. I am not a good spread handicapper in basketball yet and his insights are truly invaluable. But Im with Los Dos on this one. Covers overvalues the term "unit". You have some morons posting regularly 10 unit picks. I´ve even seen a respected poster (whom I respect as well) post a 30 unit pick. WTF is that? If units were all that matters I could start now a thread and pick for tomorrow one random game and bet 3u, if I miss, Ill go with 6u the day after, if I miss lets do 12, and so on, and by the end of the year I´d have the best record in this site. The thing is that approach does not work. Significantly reducing your "standard" unit is just an excuse to make a marginal bet which may very well be EV-. I did it all the time. Nowadays I use two units. My standard one and the other one which is 60% of my standard unit. And my unit equals 2% of my bankroll.
    LC has not once for the time I've followed him placed a bet over the scale of 1-5 units (if ever, but this I can't prove to be true), so this "martingale theory" (double till you win and then reduce units)- claim or sudden unit bursts like the 30u example, holds no ground when it comes to LC. Units can falsify records like Losdos and you are implying, but considering LC, this is not the case.  He has been steady bettor (1-5u) with his ups and downs and in overall very profitable to follow. Will he be profitable from this point on is something only future will show, but considering him to be a bad capper, like some do in this thread, based on so many profitable years is just silly.

Units can falsify records like Losdos and you are implying, but considering LC, this is not the case.  He has been steady bettor (1-5u) with his ups and downs and in overall very profitable to follow. Will he be profitable from this point on is something only future will show, but considering him to be a bad capper, like some do in this thread, based on so many profitable years is just silly.

    To #107: Toscanadream was actually banned because he was the same person as "Methodologist" and possibly others. I know so because I bashed him on twitter and I was immediately blocked by both Toscana and meth accounts(same person)  theres other ways I know it's one person but don't want to keep going, just trying to say that he was banned for the right reason, a prick trying to sell picks. He's gonna try to do the same now from his Methodologist twitter account but it's not gonna work haha,Just saying he's a clown

    I don´t know if you are trolling or if it is possible to be this stupid. 

    I said I am with LC, and if you go to his recents threads Im his greatest supporter. I cant thank him enough for his writeups, as they help me improve, which at least for me is my ultimate goal, in a sport where I am EV++ at betting totals in play but a marginal player in pre-game bets. I even go as far as tailing blindly his 5* picks... by blindly I mean I don´t even review the injuries, I just look for the better line and place it.  

    I am not backing Los Dos for bashing LC. It is idiotic to do so, considering he is probably the most valuable poster in this site. 

    What I am saying is that Los Dos has a point in his general argument about units, and the obsession in this site with that concept. NO ONE has a clear understanding of what it is. So, if for one capper one unit is 3% of his bankroll, but for another one it is 1%, clearly earnings will be different. The same applies to cappers that use only a 1u or 2u system, but don´t go up to 5u, 10u, 20u... whatever you want. Following my reasoning, betting 20u if one u represents 1% of your BR, would mean you are risking 20% of your roll in one play. That would be even more idiotic than bashing LC. 

    I KNOW LC does not go higher than 5u. And I would almost certainly guarantee you that his units way below than 1% of his bankroll. Why? Because he is a solid player. 

    I could name the capper that I saw using a 30u bet, but won´t do it since he is reputable and I highly respect him in NFL. But that shit is senseless. A one unit player could go on a 28-2 run, and this other guy would still have a better record with his 1-0 30 unit play given this nonesense unit obsession that you guys have. 

     Cheers and again, Massive thanks to you LC. You are the only thread that I open on a regular basis in NBA. And without a doubt the most valuable source of this site to help us, the newer ones to this business, to improve.

    What is idiotic is bashing the guy who shows how it is done correctly... in all aspects...

    And sizing each bet according to confidence/perceived edge is mandatory for every winning bettor, flat betting equals burning (a lot of) money in the long run

    White flag, I give up. Not enough neurons inside your brain to even understand that I would never bash the guy I respect the most from this site. There is no way you will get the other side of my point then.

    The mystery behind why LosDos hasnt been banned yet:

    He's a covers disruptor an_light Aka a "ghost account" allowed (and encouraged) to wreak havoc here

    when a proven winning capper here obtains a massive following like LC has, that is something the sponsoring online books here dont really like, so they create new aliases with very recent join dates and begin trolling super hard on a daily basis to get people distracted and lose focus on continuing beating the books.

    I wont get too into the details because most people wont appreciate my information and insight on the matter, however it is always best to simply ignore such trolls, and report them to Covers Team via private message or email and they will eventually ban them...covers is a business and they have to play devils advocate...sometimes they deal with a cancer like LosDos right away, other times they let them linger here for a while before taking action....but almost always they end up doing the right thing and ban them when the drama dies down.

    A guy like LosDos is an obvious alias as he knows far too much info about many users here for a joining date of just this month...dont interact or reply to such a pathetic irrelevant cockroach...when they see they are being totally ignored, they always leave an_light

    You should have posted this on league cappers nba tuesday.

    But anyway packers thanks for the heads up coming from you 

    May i ask something, pardon me on my lack of knowledge, but my question is, how does covers earn given that this site is free, they have their own “expert cappers” here coming from outside the forum...

    I wonder how they profit here, its not a sportsbook too as we know.

    Covers running for years already going strong, but how do they earn money on this site?

    Same old income from ads? 

    Why dont they hire their loyal members here and include them to their expert cappers or do a blog like LC can be a candidate, so no one goes tout and go outside the site... love your own as they say...

    Years has passed and still they earn from ads only?

    Miracling...best not to ask such questions...covers is the rolls royce of free sports betting websites and they have been around forever...i am not such a tech guy thus how they make money besides ad revenue and sponsors is something beyond my scope or knowledge...i like covers for what i get out of it, so thats goid enough for me...the difference between myself and many others here is that i see the big picture and generally understand what is going on here from multiple angles and perspectives...now with legalized gambling in the states, covers will go thru a major upswing in traffic thus attracting more donkeys and trolls than ever before...best to just ignore them all and let your capping speak for itself.

    Keep up the great run you are on...recently you have been on a nice roll peace_5

    Thanks for that insights packersbackers 

    I totally got it, but being a businessman myself, i like to know the unknown and guys like you i know has a lot of knowledge but i respect your take on this one.

    I also saw some member here offering the site a hand to improve the website, maybe he is a tech guy, but overall this site, the interface and all is good.

    But the really boom days i think is when they are still called wagerline lol, but like you said, when the state legalize wagering then this site will go bigger than before.

    Thanks packersbackers.

    Thanks packersbackers.
