Judge,

at the risk of admitting being unable to read between the lines, what is your take on this phenomenon? I mean, are you saying the bookie wins the close ones more often than not? sure seems like that to me anyhow during my career, but maybe I'm paranoid ... I know what Fletch is saying makes sense, and Im not here to step on anyone's toes b/c Eric has always been cool with me ... anyhow, I'm curious on your reply.

gl to all
gregg

i dont know what he meant either..everytime i have a bad beat, the lucky fvker on the other side of the play pops in my head..or vice versa

I think we have all won some we should of lost and lost some we should of won. I was sick watching Toledo play having bet on them and I cannot believe I won. But you know the opposite will happen too. I think Eric was making a statistical statement but rather a general observation that these things even out. We stole one tonight, but we'll pay for it somewhere down the road.:( Thats just gambling, there IS an element of luck involved.

Fletcher, I have been a diligent observer of your sporadic posts in the time that I have been a member at Mad Jacks. While I have generally agreed with your takes as they have related to sports gambling, I find myself in the position to have no other option other than to call bullshit.

You are really reaching here, buddy. I understand that you have been a prolific poster at Mad Jack's for quite some time but that buys you no license with me.

Please correct me if I am wrong but in my gambling career, I would never even think to advise anyone that "my best stategy would be for each bad beat you get you will win the same amount of games you should of lost or close to it."

Eric, I have to believe that you know better than to hype this kind of drivel and I honestly thought that you were better than this.

Ummmmmm....I'm not fletcher's spokesperson, but I think his point concerning a very fortunate win in the Toledo game was that he's not going to apologize for pulling out a lucky win, just like he doesn't cry when he gets hit with an unlucky loss. I don't know what the hell your point was, other than trying to start trouble, I guess.

Heaven, oh!!, this isn't it?!
Eric,
Thanks for explanation. I agree, I didn't think the extra 1:30 should make a difference, but you never know......

Judge,
I think he is sleeping it off as I type:toast: :drinky: . Not like him at all:scared Amazing how a little booze can affect people. It happens to me too:SIB :mj06:

On the course!
I give Eric all the credit in the world for saying, "I won.....but was on the wrong side."

Judge, surely you understand he's saying that we've all been there. We've all won these games, and all pissed and moaned about the "bad beats".

I'd rather have him say what he said, rather than be one of these asshats around these sites who says, "I hope you guys rode along on my big winner tonight!"


All Fletch intoned, (IMO) is that it all shakes out in the long run of your gambling career. I don't see where your beef comes into play, here?
