    I am nowing retiring for the evening and going to spend some time with my wife upstairs.

     

    Dont worry, you only have to put up with my posts until I reach my goal of 30-0. 

    Then you will have your misery refunded and not have to enter into my threads and see capitalism at work.

    Numbers never lie.

     



    Being a wall street guy you should know better than that.

    Ask a Bernie Madoff investor if he showed them fancy numbers as well, or what about Enron, or WorldCom shareholders????... 

    Their numbers lied...

    Just like you'll be side swiped when you mismanage ONE of you very large ML plays. 

    GL, I hope you cash every ticket you ever play...

    But If I'm a 100 dollar better how in gods name and why would I bet on 8 to 1 or 12 to 1 faves... to win 5 or 10 dollars???

    What purpose does that serve?

    It's logic like leveraging millions to gain 25,000 that blows up in our face when guys like YOU start playing your games...

    GL SIR


    No offense, but you are looking at this ass backwards.  But then again, most people do.  Risk is not the amount of the wager.  Risk is the probability that you will lose your wager.  People buy T-Bills because they are willing to accept a lower payout for what amounts to practically no risk.  Obviously betting the money line is not a "zero risk" proposition, but ask yourself what juice you would be willing to pay if it was.  What he is doing is minimizing the risk and in return accepting a drastically lower payout.  In theory, someone taking all favorites on the ML would end up in the same spot as someone who played all favorites against the line.  He would win a lot more of his bets but over time he would lose because favorites lose.  But if he is doing his homework and finding spots where he believes the favorite is very unlikely to lose, that is no different than bettors who play the spread.  Except that he will win many more bets and the ones he loses will cost him dearly.  Look at it this way, if you were to be all MLs at -400 you would have to hit 80% to break even. 
    All in all, it's not a bad system and it seems to be working well for him.  I would love to be up 100 units regardless of what those units are, as would any sports bettor.

    If betting favorites on the ml makes you money, I say rock on. But it's just flat out douchebaggery to say you have a perfect record betting ml.

    How funny is it that you are trying to explain this to a guy named Peepeedik? What a waste of time.

    I don't get all the haters here...It's not like Professor is coming out and saying to bet every ML Fav -400 and above and you'll win money...he is clearly capping the games and picking his spots...and most importantly, HE IS WINNING!!! So just sit back and decide if you want to follow his lead or not...and I'd love to see a single one of you haters go out and start a thread posting plays that perform anywhere close to what Prof has shown...for christ sake - give credit where credit is due!

    See I believe you miss the grander point.  Of course if you followed this guys 30-0 streak and has the CAPITAL to invest in these ML faves then you would win.

    He's hot picking ML's, I'm not even knocking what he bets on, frankly I don't care, what I care about is him talking down to other gamblers who don't have the capital to follow his system.

    His system relies on a tremendous bankroll to turn a decent profit.  If you can't see that then I'm sorry.

    Show me the math of how a 100 dllar better makes profit long term and consider we're talking about never losing.  Isn't that what this whole thread is predicated on betting huge ML faves that never lose?

    Of course if I was Michael J Fox in Back to the Future 2, this startegy would be awesome. 

    Players get injured, shit happens, no matter what you bet on.  Like any other strategy his key is picking winners and ever more important to his strategy is never being wrong because so much is at stake when you ar wrong.

    But I know this guy has a never ending bankroll and we're all going to prentend like betting ML's is REALISTIC for the normal man.

    I have no problem with his sports betting whatever works for him.

    I have a problem with the fact that he sits on a high horse when it came to the stock market.  He brought the stock market into this thread and began touting himself as the writer of the many techniques that us petty common men use day to day.

    It's guys like this that fucked up the whole economy.  BS artists.

    Straight up and down.  Don't hate cuz some is see right through it.

    Quite frankly I don't give a damn about his sports wagers, it's his line of work that I take issue with.  Guy's a crook.

    I dont know what all these people are whining about. Tons of dogs covered yesterday, but you managed to avoid them.

    Winning is winning. If you have to bet 1000 to win 250, but dont have to factor in the spread, then I say go for it. Most players dont have the patients to do this or the balls. Sure, you will miss once in awhile, but as long as you still use good money management, its all the same. You are right, your style is more like investing than gambling.

    I don't think anyone should knock the guy down or say it's his bankroll that allows him to do this type of wagering.  He said in an earlier post that a unit for him is 10 dollars.  In that scenario, he wagers 260 to win back 40 on the Emilenko fight.  Not sure of the final line but i had seen Fedor at a 650 ML offering last night.  His 110 units was 1100 dollars for him yesterday.  Meanwhile, i went 9-5 yesterday and picked up $670.  You have to pick your spots w/ ML betting.  I personally love long shots and toss in a couple of parlays everyday and i'd be a liar if i didnt say i include large ML plays.  However, the place i use stops ML offerings if the line is greater than 15. To each their own.  My only issue w/ the professor is the subject line he uses.  Be fair and accurate and include that you are perfect in ML bets. I think a lot less heat would have come your way.  BTW, i'm one of the few still at 100 wall.  Although i live in the variable and fixed annuity world these days, be more than happy to meet up for a drink.

    I didn't say my unit was $10.  I used that as an example.

    I play nickels and dimes depending on the situation.

    Also....... the streak is a mixed bag. The whole crux of why I am even posting this is because a buddy and I have a wager on whether I can go better than my last streak of 25-0.  There is a catch.... I have to have played every one of these plays as well.  The public forum is just so HE can see the plays.

    You come on this site and claim to be the author of trading techniques = slime ball day trader

The whole crux of why I am even posting this is because a buddy and I have a wager on whether I can go better than my last streak of 25-0.  There is a catch.... I have to have played every one of these plays as well.  The public forum is just so HE can see the plays.



    So you chose a public forum?  Hey Wall Street have you ever heard of an invention called email? 

    Please brother we wee right through you, you're just another snake oil salesman...

    You come on this site and claim to be the author of trading techniques = slime ball day trader

    get lost,

    "Let me start off by telling you a little bit about me first.  After you get to know the details of my life you should be rather confident fading me.  It's been a tough season for me thus far which is pretty much indicative of my life. 

    BIO:
    I'm 27 years old and live in a 55 and older community with my grand parents, located in south Florida, for the better part of the last decade.  I'm unemployed and have been for 4 years with little to no promise of achieving success in this life.

    MISSION STATEMENT:
    The little joy I do squeeze out of life comes on Saturday mornings just before a full day of college football starts.  Promise is in the air.  It's in these moments that all is possible.  I'll sweep the board and win a few dimes and life's hurdles will be jumped in just a few short hours, problems solved,  a quick fix, but inevitably I always lose.  The big bounce always seems to go the other way, so I figure why not share my picks with fellow gamblers who can turn my bad fortune into good fortune for themselves."

    Listen up Sir Peepeedick...........

    I dont know who or what has ruined your life BUT I will not stand for the senseless (and baseless) accusations. 

    We can settle this like Gentlemen........ I am going to be in SoFlorida (where you say you live) next weekend.  I will be at Champion Porsche on Saturday. Picking up a car.  I will then drive to wherever your little "Senior Center" is and have a little discussion with your grandparents on why they are wasting their retirement on your internet useage and God knows what else.

    Now then..... Either put up OR SHUT UP and stay out of my thread.

    OR>..................I can get Scotty to shut your little account down. Shall I call Mervie now?
