tuesday
- Thread starter THUNDER
- Start date
dry1 not a good night- but hang in there- finally got a little break with the portland line. but lets get the money back with portland +4.5 5%,wash -1.5 4%
I gotta warn ya, I'm the kiss of death...every handicapper I coattail seems to go into a slump....and I've followed all the regulars (Fletch, Raymond, Hoops, Loophole, Volfan, Madjack,etc.) I'm down about 15K in the past three years and I only bet 25-50 per bet...so you can imagine how bad my record is...good luck though...I'd be ecstatic to just get to being down 10k...
THUNDER who do you use for an online book? Most of the lines you post I can not get and I use Grand Central, as well as three local books.
I also went 1 - 3 - 13%.
Thanks again for you hard work.

Dry1 I will try to off set your bad luck. I ride Thunders picks. NBA if I start to do my own work will be end of this month. In most cases when I ride with Thunder it is a good thing. Were going 2 & 0 tonight.
Were going 2 & 0 tonight.dry1 you sure did not coattail me last year-or the year before or you would have done very well. if you are not going to cap your own games you should stay consistent with one capper. i have had 9 straight winning years in nba and 6 of those were over 175% in nba and college is not far behind. bv i placed the portland bet with oly at about 10 this morning cst. and usually my local to get my action will give me a half point or so if i tell him i can get some where else another words i work him. and having a few offshores is always a good thing
thunder, tonite you have portland +4.5 5%, the best line i can find is +4, i also have +3.5 , what % would your play be at such numbers? i know last night you got portland locally at +9.5 5%, what would the % have been with a number of +8.5.
thanks for your time.
thanks for your time.
I hate to put the burden of my "black cloud" karma on any one guy but you asked for it...consider yourself the proud carrier of my 160 lbs of bad luck....oh, and I got Portland at +3 (I'm in the process of switching to Olympic) so look for a 4 point loss in that game....... I did bet some of your stuff the past couple of years but not when you were winning (I'm not a patient man)...I'll try to hang in there during the rough spots...Dry

Dry1, maybe it's the negativity that you carry on your shoulders. I don't know. Sometimes, when you think the worst will happen, it usually does. Try and stay optimistic. THUNDER is a very consistent capper so I find it hard to imagine you not being able to make money over the course of the season if you follow his plays to the letter. I VERY rarely follow anyones plays. I usually do comparsion shopping after I've capped the games myself. If I notice some of the better cappers on the same play or plays, I feel pretty good. There are times where I am on the opposite side and don't make a play, only to kick myself because I had a winner. Be confident in yourself and good things will happen. Also, if you are going to follow someone like THUNDER who can make quite a few plays over the course of the day, play ALL of them. If you start cherry picking plays, you might miss out on the winners. I've done that before, too. I've picked out 1 or 2 games out of 5 or 6 and ended up picking the only 2 losers. That's why I stick to capping my own games.
Best of luck to you though. I hope things turn around for you. Like I said, THUNDER is one of the most consistent cappers in all sports. He'll do well. Also, always pay close attention to what gsp has to offer. He is a very good person to follow in hoops.
Good luck.

I tracked every single NBA pick THUNDER made last year and lets just say he hit over 55% with over 500 selections. Not too bad. There should not be one person in here making negative statements.
3-5 -3% ln dry1 -6% for the week- dry1 if you are going to complain i suggest you play all my plays dragon excellent post- dry1 you are the voice of doom- but what really concerns me is the way you wager. if you are going to coattail use all the plays everyday or 4% and above- and for LORDS sake quit whinining- trampled underfoot i actually hit on pure # 64% of my plays last year. but that is niether here nor there.bottom line is money and i won 300% or cl,ose to it which meant 44k just in nba i am not one to toot my horn. but bb for most are very difficult to cap. for myself it is not- ido this for fun and i gamble for fun- i happen to make quite abit doing it. dry1 if your getting so stresses i suggest you stop gambling. and how did you go 1-4
