Lines 101 and your punkass fell right in!!! And your loyal minions threw their welfare checks on it too. Meanwhile I slammed a 6 team ML parlay that paid me +190 and I didn't sweat any game involved. Winning is all that matters, and when douche bags like you spend hours writing up mumble jumble and take all the accolades when you win, you frail females get all butt hurt when you lose and people call you out. Get over yourself!!

Except anyone on this site who claims to be a winner without proof does not offer any valid opinion regarding the picks of successful cappers. This is because millions of little pre-teens, just like you, have littered this site claiming to be God's gift to sports betting when in fact we all know that they are dirt broke. Prove your opinion on the matter is worth something or GTFO. BTW I did not bet on the game last night however I did bet on the Knicks Vs Nets game Scalabrine offered a few nights ago and I was extremely thankful.

You are jealous.  You are boring.  You are worthless in this thread.  You are wasting your time.  You are a sad jealous dude who spends his time trolling betting forums because your life has that much to offer.  You are jealous.  You are simple.  You are bored.  You are fart.

jesus, are you slow bro?

this isnt about ME, it's about him and his stubborn, ridiculous capping style. I was just offering some advice, the simplest day one of capping advice. But Scal and the rest of you cornholes know it all...So i'm wasting my time obviously. I could only wish to be able to write 3 pages of BS and have my pick lose by 20+ lol

Sure they have been wrong and will be again, however way more often than not, they are on the right side. 

That's why I was on the other side of you on the Nets/Cavs game. A -9.5 opening was insane, too insane to not notice. Likewise for this Atlanta opening at -4. That line was backwards and like you and I agree, it should have been -4 going the other way. 

I know the game is played on the court but sometimes, red flags go off and I know to lay off or even flip sides. I really hoped I was wrong on this one. I'm sure you got loads of haters (I cant read the entire thread unfortunately) but let them go. Simply not worth the time.

It's been a busy week but I will catch you around sooner or later my man. Stay up!

That is precisely the wrong way to cap a game over the long term.

I have reiterated this time and time again in virtually every thread I have written.

In fact, I didn't need to write an OP. I could have just picked Cleveland and you could have said the exact same thing about the line being off. Line movement studying doesn't need capping.

The line is completely irrelevant to what goes on on the court.

If you want to have action/fool around/make some bets on certain nights, it is a GREAT shortcut and can work out well. Of course I use it to have action.

But when it comes to actually capping a game, you cap the game first then you look at the line.

Most of the people you see here bashing use this line movement method every night. 

And why are they so mad?

They are losers over the long term.

They don't care about the cap itself. They want a pick. And then when they can't find one from a posters, one of the methods they use to get a side on a game is line movement. 

It's a basic method that can be effective but simply cannot be relied on over the long term.

Sometimes you can cap a game and still lose no matter what (especially when some no name goes off for a perfect night which simply can't be foreseen but must be tolerated) but if you ever see a line that is 7 points off from what you capped it, if you use the "Vegas Knows" method in every instance, it will cost you a lot of money.

no one was even mentioning 'line movement'...the line didn't need to move at all, it opened up wrong enough to know. How do you know so much about long term capping lines, when its something you admit you don't even do? I'm confused

Scal, I have a bit of advice. Tone down your thread titles. It sounds like you are expressing sensationalism when you boast of how you are going to "put Vegas on a leash" I know you put much work into your capping games but do you think you could start writing short stories? Thanks for all you do and continued success in your wagering.

Champ you are turd.  Champ you are less than a cloud.  You are dust on a pile of cat piss.  You are a tooth in a garbage pail.  A fungus on the tiny toe.  A scab on your dad's bum. A hole dug for a camp shat. A broken piece of wood on a sinking boat.  Go home and sleep off your existence.  You are aware of your own uselessness but not doing anything about it.  Becoming the void your brain began you will shrink further into nothing lest you move now dude.  Pfft.  Like a fart.  You ghost to the sky.

There you go again proving what an imbecile you are. Watch Jesse James then tell me Casey Affleck cant act. 

Also, you are perfectly within your rights to post your opinion on this forum. 

My main point, if you read any of my posts, was that your opinion is meaningless because for all we know, you are a broke shmuck who cant pick a winner to save his life.

Week 15: (5-1 83.3% +3.9 Units)
Week 16: (8-5 61.5% +2.5 Units)

I don't bet even close to one unit a game on the picks I write up, so of course I can come overtake 20.25 units and leave them gagging in a dust cloud while they wave at my units, most of which are strapped to the roof because they can't fit in the car.

But I could care less about units. I post a record here because people ask me to.

Ultimately, the smart gambler looks at the info in the individual cap and uses it or fades it. Records and units should be unimportant to smart capper.

Do you know why they are all the rage on this site?

Because people dont write anything up and that is ALL they have to go by!

With me, i could be 100-0 or 0-100, but when you read my threads and OP's you will know a game far better than of you had not.

And that is why I do it and that is all that matters.

Not records, units, bashers etc.

Totally agree. These headlines are just moronic and feel like begging for attention. As well as these way too long write-ups. If you need attention or appreciation go to your mum and ask for a hug. If you want to help people, lose 90% of your text (it is pointless noise anyway) and go to the point faster.

No one was mentioning line movement or lines that open at numbers that are off.... except the very guy I was addressing.

I have written short stories before. At least you appreciate the effort and segues of entertainment I sprinkle into a cap unlike the guy below who want 10% of what I write. I'll tell ya, this is not a resume being handed across a desk and posters aren't employers. You don't make demands of the one being hired because you're short on time. My write-ups are not information overload but precisely the opposite.  This site and all its matchup stats is overload. A concise write-up which establishes a side and one that takes 15 minutes to read is not.

I was thinking the next thread title should be;

"Tonight I defecate on Vegas while cackling with abandon"

Not sure if that is gonna fit the requirement you are proposing.

I'll have to sleep on it.

Ahahaha comin from the guy who bet on like every single nba and ncaa game available. Dude didnt you lose your 50k (monopoloy) bankroll. Im assuming thats why we havent seen you around in the bball forums cuz you got burnt baaaad. Burnt so bad we here at covers thought we were on USA netwrok watching burn notice looll.
