LOL funny stuff....but if he really bets everyday like they showed there, do you really believe he never had a losing year:shrug:

he bet every game on the NFL sheet and EVERYONE goes thru bad streaks

one thing I give you credit for is being selective and if I was betting many anymore, I would have been on the side you had today as I was in the Hippo-Phart contest where I was leading before this weekend and going 0-3 this week:scared

throw a brother a bone next week :0074
...............................................................

He bets way too many games if that is what he is doing everyday , but I kinda doubt it.

I have differant ideas about number of games as I have stated many times.

Dude won 3.5 million on New Orleans in the Superbowl last year so if thats true then just wow he could pull it off.

But what you have to think about is that he is worth a estimated 100 million.

You can do alot of things with that kind of a bank.

Too bad he has to be so sneaky about things, but that is the way to be successfull doing something like this for a living.


yeh bad game for me today but only 700 . I can live with that.

Starting to look at next weeks games.

Only one game I believe I can win next weekend.

brings up an interesting discussion...you think there is more of an advantage in picking like 1-5 picks a week or betting well over 200 and coming out profitable in long run?

cause on that show he was betting every game:shrug:

I haven't watched it yet. However, there is no way he could have an edge in EVERY game. I just think he likes to take risks. He lives on risk. At least that is what I had read. Plus he has the money to deal with it.

My take is that whenever you have a +EV wager you need to make it. The question is how much of your bankroll do you wager on it.

.............................................................

when you see it you will undertand how he got started with the computer group that gave him a considerable advantage at Vegas books.

This is how he got his stake.

He was working for them and then at some point he went out on his own.

I am going to start reading everything I can find about this guy. Knowledge is power my friends.

He doesn't bet every game. He bets EVERY game his line is off from the Vegas line.

The more the line is off....the more he puts in play.


If your lines have a +% average return over the Vegas lines, you don't pick and choose, you bet every line that is off.

You really need to get a grip wth reality. :sadwave:

Like Walters said "some people Hustle and most get hustled". I would put u in the latter company. What i said is all documented and if i gave a dick who u were i would run over and get it for ya.

Here is something i thought was interesting about Walters. Back on the last superbowl The Shrink said Walters played 2 mil on Indy ML. On 60 minutes Walters said he bet the Saints. A few of us question the Shrink saying that we thought what he said was bullshit or Walters isn't the gambler he thinks he is cause nobody that is worth a salt in gambling, is gonna go square on the superbowl. So the question is who is lying.
A. The Shrink posted bullshit to help out Walters
B. Walters was lying on 60 minutes
C. Walters bullshitted The Shrink into thinking he was takin Indy.

I think it was C and possibly started what followed later.

I was feeling like shit last night with that post..........Way worse this morning. Went to the Dr., have double ear infection and sinus infection and a 101 fever, but since you asked so nicely YYZ.............

The guy that said that he takes his action so he knows what is going on, did not say how much action he took.

Walters has a very intricate web of hustlers under him. He has people locate friends of local books and asks them to have an account set up. Once you get the account set up with the username and password, you are no longer allowed to use the account. Walters places all of the bets for you under these false pretenses. He covers the losses 100%, but you get 25% of the winnings. You had better make sure that you're gonna get paid though because there is no telling Billy that the guy stiffed you. Whether you get paid or not, you are responsible for the entire amount of the winnings..........minus your 25% of course.

One of my locals got stung by one of his guys 3 weeks ago. The guy was supposedly in Tampa, but the IP address was out of Vegas. My book called the guy on it and he gave some story that he was out in Vegas for the early part of the week and would be back in town on Wednesday. Wednesday came around and he placed 12 bets. 10 winners. IP still from Vegas. He shut the guys account down and the guy went ballistic cuz he was goiing to be responsible to Billy. After three days of non stop phone calls, he hasn't heard anything from him again.

So when he was on the phone with those guys saying to put 350k on a game, his guy wasn't walking up to the sports book and tossing down the 350k.

Nice little scam which will catch up to you eventually.

Now I'm going back to bed.
