Btw, do you have a blue birdie account?

Bills @ Patriots: It's put up or shut up time for Rex. Win now or the guillotine rope gets greased

16-0 Bills with two minutes. We're good.
Rex and Co. came to play like we thought they would. They didn't beat Tom, but they got to 2-2, are rejuvenated, finally beat Belichick regardless of who is behind center, and have a somewhat favorable schedule going forward before they play the Pats again in game 8.
Only 4 penalties on the day so it's a disciplined win for what is a typically undisciplined Bills team. Very good sign here.
It's a third string QB but this is exactly what the doctor ordered for this team in terms of how symbolic this shut-out is (let's end this leaving them with 0) and that it is a road win in Foxboro. Very pleased, especially for the over 8 wins futures bet which now is live once again.

You don't make as many plays but the results are as good. I bet 5k on all your plays which is same amount that i bet on bettingresource plays. But the great thing is that your plays are free :)
If you ever create a donation page let me know, i would gladly donate some of the winnings.
cheers.
Good to hear it man. I appreciate the sentiments. I know full well guys here gamble far more than me and I take responsibility for that when I post a pick.
My father was obliterated at the race track all his life. It is impossible to make a living off horses. Where are the guys who live off income they made off the track. There isn't one. Where is that guy? Have a GOOD time at the track and expect to lose or better, just try to minimize your losses.
But I have fond memories of spending time with him there, even though he almost never won a dime. Still, there was a lot of money that went out the door.
Now it is time to take from the proverbial 'house', even though this amorphous collection of off-shore books isn't the racetrack where we lost. I am still more than willing to burn them with dozens of guys tailing me.
Most of these books count on our addiction to get every penny of our bankroll. And it works. The more they offer, the more they will juice us on wins and lure us into the den of uncapped plays which result in the inevitable losses and chase plays.
I firmly believe that if you choose ONE or at most two games a week in each sport and attack it aggressively, you can hit 65%/70%.
We all can effectively cap ONE game. If we can't do that collectively, then we shouldn't be gambling. But this is proof we can. Anyone can pick one game and win. They just won't do it. And even if they did do it, they would personally downgrade their winning percentage because it isn't large enough. I've been told this many times. "Scal, your winning sample isn't big enough." Do you think I care? I just collect the winnings and move on. I'm not perfect but if I miss a play, the next week I am going after a win doubly as aggressive.
Hence, some posters let the books convince them they aren't good enough to win at a 60%+ clip and then try to spread that kind of thinking like a virus. It affects this entire forum.
And that is why we call ourselves degenerates. We downgrade our personal worth as people and as cappers because we believe the gambling world to be seedy and know we are addicted to gambling. That is poppycock.
We are not degenerates. If you believe yourself to be an 'investor' in capping professional sports, your self-worth is suddenly increased, just by changing a moniker. This is not a speech inspired by Tony Robbins. This is reality.
Try it and you'll find yourself winning more than you ever thought you would. Just be selective, aggressively attack one game in each sport per week and your winning percentage will skyrocket.
Now the NBA is different because there are too many games a night with too many players taking nights off. I've come to realize this over the course of many years. The modern day NBA is worse than ever in this regard.
I'd suggest anyone here betting more on the NBA to shift most of your capping to NCAAB. The players in those games are playing for their livelihood and future. You can't say the same about Mike Conley when he's guaranteed $156 million dollars regardless of whether he shows up or not.

Rollo and the above.

Scal, I know this is getting old but man, you are awesome and thanks again for yet another winner. You nailed this game just like you nailed Maryland yesterday (2 easy winner with no stress; that's the part I liked best--lol). I was trying to help another poster this morning; my guess is he is a newer person to sportsbetting and he is obviously down on his luck. I tried to explain to him that the way to get better is to peruse this site for informative posts about different angles (and man, do you ever have alot of angles; I've been following you for awhile now...lol). I have been doing this for over 30 years now and rarely am I ever in awe of another handicapper. You have taught me how to me more thorough when researching my own selections and we all have much to learn from you (and others on this site). I do not know who the best capper is on this site (because there are so many) but I do know you are my favorite. Thanks again for the 2 winners this weekend!! Cheers!
