    Listen your the one who is on some power trip and we should all bow down because your here to teach all of us.

    First off Goose is right, you havent posted one thing any gamber shouldnt already know, if they have been gambling for any amount of time

    Secondly unless you are getting bet amounts directly from real sportsbook managers, then all the dollar amounts you are quoting, mean jack shittttttttttttt.  Any real veteran gambler knows that all those consensus sites are nothing but garbage scams.

    Your a fool to think that any sportsbook would let their dollar amonts on games be posted on the net.  Why, so bettors can have more info to use to take their money,lmfaooooooooooo.

Second - the whole reason for the post supplying that info was to examine it after the game and not to wager by it as ATL -3.5 stayed as a lean only. Third -the site does supply precise sort of info I displayed but I would not mortgage my house that these numbers are accurate. Just examined it as a curious person and made a service to many here who are also familiar with that site/s , I'm sure and use that info. Fourth - what the info told us - happened.
    And finally - what is the matter with you? Coming into utterly strangers' sites and acting like an overblown balloon about to burst - is that your cup of tea? Happy New Year and Merry Christmas!

    I appreciate your info on this site. But "steady income from betting" and your unit weighing on different games DO NOT AGREE. If you are a real pro who live off betting, DO NOT DO THE (5-20) UNIT BOMB and 1 UNIT on games. Each game has the same probability of cashing or losing. Why weigh them differently? I am just saying the basics, if you lose one 20 U game, it takes you 21 games of 1 unit to break even. I think WISE people bet certain percentage of their bank roll, most 2-3%. If bankroll grows that 2-3% also grows. But what the heck do i know. Your choice, your thread. Thanks.

And if you're such knowledgable veteran and goose too - what business you have coming into the man's thread and checking for his picks? May be you wanna give all your knowledgable picks?

    When I'm handicapping totals on any sports - I take into account the number set for totals - is it out of the ordinary? (like if the teams have played just a week ago at the same place and went Over  - I expect the totals set for the next game between the teams to be higher - and if it is not, it says something), I take into account what is the teams O/U record realizing the numbers even out at sometime, the player's form and if there was a strong defensive play effort game before against the weak offensive play or the other way, day of the week factor and of course public perception of the game with money thrown at it. It's a whole excel page of numbers and trends. I'm trying to enter all the possible variables, let them work for sometime and then to decide if there is some characteristic behavior or its behavior is random

    Don't let Goose and CD #'s get to you. They've been tarred and feathered in the political section so they've migrated to football to display their ignorance to a broader base.

    It's becoming tiring answering you and explaining to you. I will try to do it short: read all the posts, improve your English (power trip? - it's called Ego Trip), don't bow down and mostly remember - I didn't break down your door trying to force you to read my thread.
    The site I'm getting info is not a consensus site and although I asked everyone to take that info with a limited liability (obviously, you and your twin Goose are conveniently missing that), the trend from those numbers was right and the leans (not bets yet as I was only examining that site's info) won.
    And stop giving yourself and Goose medals for being "experienced gamblers", because if you were you would know that the site I brought the info from is not a consensus site

    Merry Christmas (no need to bow down)

     DO NOT DO THE (5-20) UNIT BOMB 
    I played 2 units, 3 units and the single unit so far. What are you basing your sentence on and what is 5-20? Who plays 20 units games? You must be confusing me with someone. When I said I could afford losing 20 games in a row with 2000$ bankroll - I did not say I'm playing 20 units games... Please guys - at least read what I write before reacting. Thanks anyways as I feel your intention was kind one.
    Merry Christmas

    Why should I be worried? They're the ones supposed to be worried. And they most probably are. Otherwise such display of uncalled animosity is hard to explain.

    poolman11? I tried hard do decipher your message buddy. Really... If you just could simplify - it would help to understand what you're saying. Right now it sounds like someone has a choke on you and all you manage to get out are unconnected words and meaningless sentences...

    Ha Ha, I commented it in a funny way as the counter comment on your staying away from the Giants game. I know you took over too - I saw it on your thread and I think congratulated you on a good day. If I didn't  - here it is - Grats! I know what you're saying about playing 3-5 games but forcing the plays is even worse as you already know for sure. So, although there were lots of games last night - and I usually love playing single games on prime time - I chose to stay away from SF game  for a reason as I was not convinced what kind of the Niners we will get. At all, I hate betting Seattle games as something is very fishy with each of their game. As about the other games - I had leans but stayed away not being sure. I believe in a strategy of "not losing is like winning" in certain circumstances. I played NBA game thou and won with Minnesota covering in MSG. So overall I did have 3 plays yesterday.
    Thanks for your positive input BigUnit and GL
