     WOW Sounds like you are a tailer that is angry with tailing losing picks. Whatever your reason for this post is it shows a small mind behind it. If you don’t like his picks play tour own. Simple like your mind.

    Nope! I make my own bets. I have been decently profitable the last two seasons all by myself. I don't tail anyone on here. Except maybe Leventis72. He's a REAL legend on here.

    I personally can't wait for golf to get into full swing. That's where I make some real hay!

    Wow that's some crazy math you got going there. Enjoy the mansions in multiple states. So somehow  while paying vig you increased your winnings? Despite not picking any correct winners. Interesting. Tell me more about your bitcoin fortune. 

    I need another good laugh. 

    You (liar) can suck it. What a joke.

    @NEGolfJosh3

     I don't think he's saying that at all. I think perhaps he's saying that he doesn't give a sh-t what the haters think or say, and he's capping and posting cuz that's what he does. 

    Anyone who's capped for longer than a weekend knows that streaks happen, bad seasons happen (as do good ones). Over the many years he's been doing this, his picks have helped TONS of cappers make TONS of money. Let the haters whine about his picks and cry that he sucks. This guy knows (as many of us do too) he's very good at what he does, even if the short-term (in the NFL, at least) says otherwise.

    Cheers

    Sorry, I dont talk about my bitcoin fortune with normies.

    Rest assured - you can read my Covers bitcoin thread from 2013 if you want to get a sense of how many orange lambos I have.

    Sorry - got to run - my PJ is warmed up on the tarmac.  Heading to one of my multiple mansions.

    The saddest thing about the haters to me is this. The one thing they seem to have in common is they must not be around any successful people. To have such a bleak view at  even the possibility that someone else has made some good choices and are living a good life.

    @NEGolfJosh3

    I have good news for you.

    Losing gamblers are just gamblers who haven't won yet.

    There is still time for you.  Best advice I can give you?

    1.  Winning sports gamblers care about 1 thing... And it is not "handicapping" - they care about the line / price combination.  This is paramount.  I realize your moron friends and family are all going to be in your ear about how team A cant beat team b, and how team a is 9-1 in their last 10 snow games when they played Freebird at the stadium... But those things don't matter.  The only thing that matters is getting a line / price combination that provides the best value.

    2.  With #1 above....  You will need to find books that offer less than traditional 20 cent spreads.  A good example is Pinnacle or Bet105.  But a better example is exchanges like Matchbook or 4casters.  I know we kid about vig...  But when you are betting in to .1 cent spreads (yes, .1), you aren't paying vig.  This reduces the threshold for winning to just picking 50.01% winners.

    3.  Come up with alternative streams of gambling income.  I buy and sell lines all week, as I have a prediction model that forecasts line movement only - not results.  I also have a results model I use for #1 above, but I use a separate model just for line moves.  **If you can accurately predict line moves - that is worth money!!  You simply "buy" team A on an exchange, and "sell" team A back later in the week.  I do this for every game, every week.  Of course you lose some of these - but just like handicapping results - the threshold is very low if you use exchanges and I literally cannot remember the last week I entered Sunday without guaranteed + profit.

    4.  Stop rejecting the notion that you can win doing this.  It is actually quite easy.  There are lots of people who win.  The reason it is hard for you to believe this is because you have a loser mentality and you surround yourself with losers.  Open you mind and be open to learning.  Dont judge immediately.  You might find that the people you love to troll are actually people you can learn from.

    5.  Everybody wins and loses.  Keep in mind what I  am trying to do here - release NFL sides (the most efficient market in sports) late in the week all at the same time and win.  That is unheard of.  I have won 7 out of the last 8 years, which is nothing short of lucky or miraculous.  It is what I choose to do - I am not complaining - but for you to assume that this wont produce losing runs and seasons is just simply ignorant on your part.  

    Happy to answer any questions.  We are here to learn from each other.  I met 2 covers posters in Vegas this last weekend collecting giant checks from the Survivor contest....  _____P____ and Mr. Moot.  Both great guys.  I learned from both of them.  But you can only learn from others if you pack your jealousy and anger where it belongs - and open your mind and be curious.

    It really isn't about being a hater.  Vanzach is an evil narcissist who is being called out for his picks.  Narcissist hate being held accountable and lash out in a demeaning and condescending manner.  Narcissists have to demonstrate how much smarter they are than everyone else.
