I dunno how many of you saw much of the Milwaukee/Chicago game, but Brandon Jennings is for real. He went step for step with Rose and even looked better for much of the game. Both these teams are going to struggle this year, but I think the Bucks will have some value moving forward, because of the relative anonymity featured on their roster with Redd out.

And Ax, how could I be upset just because I lowered by wager on the game! You've given us 12 winners already in 15 tries!!! :mj06:

Thanks buddy.

I just remember a few times last year. I was hitting about 66% and some people giving me grief when I lost a few. I think they forgot I lost those bets too.

Thank you

Let's go Portland. Hope they have gas in the tank for the stretch:scared

There's always a few haters, which is why you came over here, across the street, where it's much quieter, right ? It was just about a year ago that I started chattin' w/ ya, pal...It's been my pleasure to chime in from time to time..you're a class dude, Ax.

It gets me to think sometimes. Take a look at the Hockey forum on the other side. No bashing, no nothing. I guess it pretty much depends on the sport and the number of people that bet on it. The more people you have at a specific forum, the more chances you'll have of getting trolls. Basic stats. I like it here, quiet spot, just like the Hockey forum on the other side.

I just can't understand what makes someone tail others blindly, and then expect they take responsability if they lose. Plain stupidity.

Thanks Boss. Wow, how time flies. We use to have those late night chats while playing 2H's like a couple of action junkies. LOL. 80% for a couple of action junkies isn't bad. I do like Jack's place. It really feels like a work environment. No drama. It's been a pleasure indeed Boss.

Now let's end this night right Blazers!

Lack of personal accountability coupled w/ the id/ego - b/c of the human condition, there's a tendency to avoid responsibility for one's actions/behavior - and a lot of people are reluctant to admit they're wrong/made a mistake/don't know/etc. They're also the same cohort that you can profit from b/c you can predict their decisions when it comes to betting or in the equities market.

Personally always try to subscribe to the UK Ministry of Information poster phrase from 1939 (@ the advent of WWII): Keep calm and carry on.

I think the people here are more professional about their approach to capping.

BTW, if you've got a solid NHL play, please share. We know there are no locks but a solid play is worth a look.

LMAO, in so many words, know who to fade. Tell me I'm wrong ETZ. :mj07: I've done it and still do. I have a few people I watch across the street. If I'm iffy on a play and they're on it, I know what side I'm on.

So very true Ax, so very true...

Yeah well, i guess it does show a lot about a persons character (or lack of). Really sad, actually.

Indeed. Even the way that people post here is way more adult. Doesn't look like an IM chat. People take time to write, no rush.

As to NHL, I have my moments. Made a killer profit yesterday with the Flyers PL, but i only tend to bet when i see a really good one. I'll share here when that time comes.

Nice run Ax, tailed on the Washington/Cleveland U. Able to see through the U on Denver/Indiana and the Detroit side.

ETZ,
Nice read on the Jazz/ Mavs total

Looks like another normal night of NBA Action. Cavs, Mavs, Bulls all down 10-15+ and end up winning Cavs & Mavs even cover the spread. After 1 week everything is already back to normal. :mj07:

 

[t-mook]
