I think one of the worst strategies to betting is to throw all of your jack on 1 game. Even worse, announcing it to the world seems to be the kiss of death around here lately. I see it every year in every sport and the lurkers that coattail these guys will sequentially sink with the ship. That's mainly in part to the misconception some people get when seeing these glitzy in-your-face posts such as this. In fairness, signalcaller did offer up some reasoning behind his play, albeit in a condensed fashion.
Anthony Richkas had to be the best example of having an adverse effect of what this site is really about. He was nothing but an act and a few guys here actually bought it. It's really a shame that some people may have lost thousands due to him.
