MY STORY-PLEASE DONT READ IF YOU ARE EXTREMELY PRO OR AGAINST CO-CAPTAIN....JUST MY PERSONNAL EXPERIENCE WITH CO-CAP
co-captain i think people are doing a good thing when they ask you questions.and they do a nice service to the forum and here is why: (i never intended to talk about this before but now i will, since i dont care if some posters here will call me a loser...i know i am bad at capping and yes, i'm a loser, but i do have a nice life outside the gambling world so i cant really complain)
when i started posting my plays in college basketball this season, you jumped in one of my threads literall yelling at me "so what if you like a team X ? where are your writeups ? where are the writeups ? you dont contribute by posting your picks only !" etc etc..and i was only posting a few plays of mine, and i wasnt really into writing writeups in a language that is not my native language - i'm just an immigrant from greece, living and working in canada...so you can understand what pain in the ass would be for me to write writeups for my games...just like it is right now to write this lol.
so, i felt unwanted here after your insult, i checked your posts and i saw quite a few people posting in your daily threads and i thaught you were someone who was doing well, and who was a well respected and established capper here,.
then, i dont know why, i decided to follow your plays without thinking...two weeks later half of my bankrol was gone, playing your picks only, following your unit system. i dont blame you for this, but i did have a feeling that you were the best capper here as your posts were always on top, always winning. but when my bankrol was gone, i said to my sel;f it cant be happening, this guy is always winning. iobviously i stoped betting (due to the losses) and did a lenghty research on you...then i was surprised to see that you were in the red year to date, and i also discovered that you always bumped your winning threads several times and never a losing thread. thats how i got tricked into all that co-captain hype....once again, i dont blame you, you at least proved to me that you were a good salesman...but not a really good capper...then from that point on, i was making "paper bets" meaning, i was writing down your plays and pretending to play them...you got hot late in the season but my numbers showed me that i would stil be in a hole (small one) even if i was cotailing you all the time til the end.
i continued with those paper bets when baseball started, and i quit doing it probably two weeks ago whn i saw that you were in the red in baseball as well..
i said to myself,i will not keep doing this any more...its worthless...but stil, it bothers me when i see you bumping your winning threads every time, and not the losing threads. it bothers me when you keep bringing up your contact info (by the way there is a guy at covers-website promotions forum who asked you a question about your contact info that you never responded to....why do you think anyone needs your contact info other than for selling plays) it bothers me when you yell at other people and pretending that you are the best one here. it bothers me when you say we will bitch slap the man today because that is a leading statement ...and all of the above led me to my $0 bankrol.
once again, i dont hate you, i feel im responsable for my losses, but your tricks did me in. now plkease everyone, call me a loser, because i do lose a lot betting sports, i dont care. i just wanted to warn other people not to make the same mistake. and by the way, i cant understand why would you bring up the "tout" point again....what do you think you would sell to people "good health and good spirits" ?, "alloha and mahalos" ? stats avaiable everywhere on the internet for free ? i really dont see anything else that you should be able to charge for.
just my two cents
