Thanks guys

Orangebowl: yo quiero taco bell? dude I speak OK spanish but I have no idea de que tu hablas?

Pags: thanks you little stinker you


Willye: $1250 to be exact same for the NFL. Everybody talks about how disciplined I am but trust me guys I took some major chances this season. Just do the math. I'm just very confident doing what I do :103631605

P.S. My mom made 15k a year and I never met my dad. Making enough money to see my mom stop working was my #1 goal. As of October of last year this goal was attained.


I'm going to tease this game tonight guys. Check my NFL thread in a bit.

This is from page 2 (my initial card)

After a few weeks to digest it all one thing is for certain I should have not doubted myself. Even though the bowl games were a different animal I should have stuck to my guns. I spent countless hours handicapping college football this past season and my confidence was sky high since October. I can only attribute this to A)inexperience B)refusing to give back what I've won.

Was I scared? NO simply not greedy enough I think.

Just so you know I simply like writing out my thoughts when mistakes are made in order not to repeat them. Pags made a great point to me about 4 weeks ago. He asked "Would you say that buying back has worked more times than not?" I said yes and it was clearly a lie in order to justify my action. As you can see I would have been up during bowl season. Adding plays late, buying back, and attempting middles cost me profit.

I think besides making a note to self this can serve some of you. I'm pretty certain many sports gamblers are prone to buying back for different reasons. I tell you now books like it when we do.

GL see you later this year. Might be back in Mid July to break down each conference weekly.

VOR...You can learn a lot from Pags and the way he does things. He's been at this for a long time and he's got his system down pat.. And I learn more and more myself every year from trial and error. Pags plays on average about 7 games a week. And this is what I'm going to go back to next year. Back in the years 2004-2006 I played a limited amount of games each week on here, and I was very successful in those years. I also didn't play the Big 12 exclusively back then. And this next season I'm planning on going back and using my old methods of capping in looking for the best 5 to 7 games each week from around the country that have the strongest angles. So I'll have a very limited amount of plays in the Big 12. I was playing more games from this conference than I should have this season. I tried making plays that really weren't there to give me an advantage. And that's is not how you get ahead in this game. Anyway, I think I still have your number around here, and I'll be giving you a call before the start of next season. And I'm sure we both will have plenty to say to each other on the Miami-OU game coming up in the second week. Good luck next season.
