Thanks Chop.

Like I said in the very beginning of the thread.... things are not like they used to be. The "suits" are elliminating any situation where we can ever work hard enough, or know enough to be smarter than them. Therefore you can't make serious bets any more for long and win without being barred. Everything has to be nice and polite and we need to LOSE or the books are not happy. "Recreational" means "LOSER", does it not? I guess I am answering my own questions.

Ever miss the good old days? Everyone does... if they indeed ever experienced real gambling. Which 99% of the people on here never did!

of course most people do, but did you ever hear " You can Never go Back "

Tbh, at least as far as I perceived it, you just came out stating your record and talking about going pro. No word about discussing approaches to bet the NBA or other useful stuff, before the thread completely derailed.
In general there is little participation if somebody tries to start a discussion on certain games/sports or betting approaches in the offshore forum., even in the subforum for the different sports it's mostly picks without any reasoning or discussion

Very true

A new thread starts somewhere.. I was opening the door.. and suprisinglyrics not 1 pro came in to create the moment. Is that my fault?

I have no problem with you tate, and was not pointing any fingers. But you can't be surprised that a thread about going pro at gambling, citing your record which is not fully documented at this site, and containing zero information or real insight, was derailed a little bit by haters.

Wish you nothing but the best. :toast:

Exactly.
Not saying the thread had went differently and more "pros" had chimed in or more useful posts would have been made. But if your intent really was to get a discussion going about NBA betting approaches or problems someone might run into if he goes pro and/or wants to get down "higher" amounts than the average recreational bettor, I'm sure a different initial post would have gone a long way.
There won't be much positive discussion and a lively participation coming from a thread that starts off with "I had a great year, my record was, how was yours". And yes, I'm with you that the ensuing bashing was pointless. If you went 40-30, 50-20 or whatever doesn't really change anything and documenting your record at site X or at the RX itself doesn't make any difference as long as those stats at place X can't be manipulated.
Besides that I never got it anyways why people get so focused on records: You get a feeling on who knows his shit and who doesn't rather quickly, so the records doesn't matter that much and ppl should just find knowledgable posters and try to pull some good info out of those posts instead of focussing on records (because even if a record is accurate, following somebody will turn out slightly different because you will not be able to always get the same line or odds on any bet).

Whatever: Like Harry, I only wish you the best and sincerely best of luck making it in LV as a sportsbettor.

Great post..

And a muther fkn perfect example of that is my current thread here in offshore..

The intent to get a discussion. Recap the nba playoffs with other guys pro or not with what works or doesent.

Yet I have to deal with coksukking moocow and enfuego ripping apart the thread adding ZERO.

Lol you know pack if they ripped me and added some info I wouldn't of cared about the bashing. Lol..

No Tate, your intent was to tell people how great you are at capping the NBA. hat was the sole intent of your thread but you underestimated that guys would call you out for being shady. That's what we added. Calling you out for misleading posters.

Could not have said it better but anything but a hater. I wish the posters here nothing but success. That's what this site is supposed to be about but when you see a guy that's not totally honest yet calls himself a pro, he has to expect some skepticism/criticism. Tate is a good guy but on this topic, he is wrong and should just let it go.
