First off, a friend asked me to view this thread on this forum. It is hysterical. I have lurked on other forums before and even signed up for one over a year ago, but I had to sign up here today and respond to the nonsense that Riggs has brought here.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>

Secondly, I have a doctorate from MIT in Statistical Analysis and was valedictorian there and in High School. I wrote my thesis on "The Prediction of Random Effects in Sports Gambling using BLUP (Best Linear Unbiased Predictors)". I contacted a Sportsbook in Vegas and they set me up with a Vegas company that sent me over two decades worth of information in multiple sports so I could back-test line data and game results. The results were quite staggering. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

Given two random variables with a joint bivariate normal distribution, the estimated mean of one corresponding to a specified value of the other is known as a predictor of the particular realization of the random variable. Recent literature has tended to use the term predictor, rather than estimator, when referring to random effects. When prediction is based on the regression line, the predictor is known as a best linear unbiased predictor (BLUP) of the random effect. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

In relation to the prediction used in plant and animal breeding, the BLUP of G <o:p></o:p>

corresponding to a particular value P(i) of the phenotype will always be closer to the population mean than P(i) itself. Compared to P(i), the BLUP of G(i) is shrunken towards the mean. The degree of shrinkage depends on the variance-covariance structure of the bivariate distribution. In general, the shrinkage factor will be the ratio of the covariance between the two variables to the variance of the conditioning variable. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

BLUP is an important principle in mixed model analysis. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

The example I used for sports betting was similar to: <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

Y(ijk) = m + F(i) + R(j) + FR(ij) + e(ijk), where F(i) represents the fixed effect of the vegas lines, R(j) represents the random effect of line movement (j), FR(ij) represents the random indeteration between the vegas lines and the line movements, and e(ijk) represents a random error associated with a particular observation. Assume that R(j) are random samples from a population with mean zero and variance V[R], FR(ij) are random samples from a population with mean zero and variance V[FR], and e(ijk) are random samples from a population with mean zero and variance V[e]. Furthermore, assume that R(j), FR(ij) and e(ijk) are independent.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

With this model, the expected value of any observation Y(ijk) is m + F. The variance of any observation is V[R] + V[FR] + V[e]. The covariance between any two observations from the same machine-operator combination is V[R] + V[FR]. The covariance between two observations from the same operator but different machines is V[R]. The covariance between two observations from different operators is zero. <o:p></o:p>


Anyway, it is pointless to try and explain how this works using these formulas unless you have the background to understand it.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>

Bottom line is this:<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

This RIGGS guy is a total moron. An idiot. A bully who talks tough on the Internet and makes wild promises. He claims to have found the "golden goose", as Northern Star points out (more on him later). "Bobby" Riggs is obviously a narcissistic egomaniac. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

The part that cracks me up the most (and I cannot believe nobody else has picked up on this) is the part where he actually believe that He and Vegas are actually in a "chess-match" with each other!!! Hysterical!!! LMAO!!! He actually thinks that Vegas knows the outcomes of these games and then in turn produces these Over/Under "cycles" to throw the bettors off. LMAO!!! <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

And of course, since Riggs is suck a friggin "genius", he has "discovered" what Vegas is "secretly" up to and is "cleaning up" now, making "piles and piles" of money. And gosh, how nice of this clown to SHARE this "discovery" with the general public for free!! How nice. How altruistic. How much BS can this guy shovel out???<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

He claims the formula is based on calculus and algebra, yet when pressed, it is REALLY just simple addition and subtraction, and the only "trick" is for this "genius" RIGGS to figure out when Vegas is "changing their cycles" around. LMAO!!! <o:p></o:p>


Last night, just his 2nd time posting here, he goes 0-3 and of course that is the first 0-3 he has ever had with this system. LMAO!!! He explains this as "vegas messing with me". ROTF LMAO!!! Yeah, Vegas sees him posting at the RX now, so they "pulled a fast one" and reversed the cycle on him yesterday!! ROTF LMAO!!!! How utterly ridiculous, laughable and absurd.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>

And now Mr. Internet Tough Guy Riggs is going to be "up all night" crunching numbers and tweaking formulas for us so he can figure out what Vegas is up to. How tricky of Vegas to reverse that cycle on poor Mr. Riggs last night out of the blue. How unfair of Vegas to do that!! LMAO!!!<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

This guy is a FRAUD. He last about 2 weeks at covers.com, lost his ass there with this "system" he "discovered" that "hits 70%". He had the same wild claims there, and as soon as he went into the tank, which was quick, the sharks swam in after this tough guy, who was now chum, and ate him alive, which is already starting to happen here. And of course this bully, like ALL bullies, just attacks his attackers by "yelling louder", using worse insults than they did and just being unbearably condescending, always acting like he is the "expert" and everyone else is the "moron". I see in just 2 days, the same pattern is already happening here. No surprise.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

This guy has no formula based on calculus, in fact, he has no friggin clue in the world how to hit even 60% with this fairytale system, let alone 70%.

Somebody needs to send a boat over to Fantasy Island and bring Riggs back to reality. But I doubt he'll ever leave, so say hello to Mr. Rourke for me, ok numbskull? <o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>

Anybody can claim to be a friggin genius on the Internet. That's the beauty of the Internet. Anyone can type whatever they want, live in whatever fantasy world they want, and who is to say it isn't true?<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

Take Northern Star, who wrote that eloquent rebuttal today. Here is part of it:<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

"In regards to my abilities, I scored in the top one tenth of one percent in math on my college entrance test ( a perfect score ), I received a full ride scholarship, I have an aerospace engineering degree and I will probably be the only person you know that has had information so good that they couldn't get a $5 (grocery store dollars that is) bet accepted at a major sportsbook in Las Vegas. Let me know when Ceasar Palace or some other major sportsbook tells you "I am sorry sir but we don't want you action on a $5 bet" (I think it would have paid about $50)"<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

And twice in your response, you said you have been gambling for "over 30 years", which of course coupled with the above "abilities" gives you instant "credibility", right?? Well, all it takes is one look at your profile to see your birthday is January 26, 1969. So I guess you were gambling at Age 3, 4, 5 or 6, then, huh?<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

You see, this is the "beauty" of the internet. You can lie-lie-lie all day long and who can really prove it? <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

Just because you typed those impressive "credentials" on an Internet forum, Northern Star, doesn't mean they are true. Anybody can type that BS. It doesn't make it fact. The same way I typed my "credentials" at the top of my reply. None of that is actually true. None of it. But how would you know if I didn't tell you?? You wouldn't. Yes, I understand you were just trying to call this a-hole Riggs out and the best way to argue with a narcissistic bully is to pump yourself up full of "credentials" the same way the LIAR RIGGS did, so you are forgiven.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

But the "Almighty Riggs"......You are a farce, a liar, a bully, a JOKE. Period. You are already 7-7 and won't get much better than that. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

I will say what everyone in here is thinking but haven't said:<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

I am rooting against you. I am rooting against ALL of your picks, unless I happen to bet one of them myself, and believe me, if I am on the same side as you on a pick from time to time, it has NOTHING to do with you being on it, believe me, loser. You are a blowhard, fraudulent, narcissistic bully. Why don't you get out now and cut your losses? Stop posting immediately and save yourself further humiliation.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

There is no "secret formula" to picking winners, people, like Northern Star said. And I've seen hundreds of clowns come along on forums like this with ridiculous stories like this.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

BEWARE!!<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

This guy is nothing but an attention whore. All he talks about is how many views he got at covers. That's ALL that he REALLY cares about, here. He is a lonely, broke loser who needs attention, so this kind of interaction with "people" on the Net fulfills all the things that are missing in his life.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

This is a sports forum. NOBODY cares about secret formulas, calculus, algebra, inside information, cycles and whatever else.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

All people care about here is WINNERS. If you cannot pick winners, people don't care. Ok, Mr. Riggs?? They don't care if your system is a monkey throwing darts at a dartboard, if it hits 60% over the course of the season, THAT is all that matters. You dopes here on these forums are all too wrapped up in providing a "secret" system or "mathematical" system or "fade" system or "quit factor" system. All of which are ridiculous. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

You want attention, just pick winners, nobody really cares how you did it if you can do it consistently.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

WAKE UP, people.<o:p></o:p>

Vegas_Insider -

Was I really worth all that? You must have been really mad while typing all that. BTW, how long did it take you to type all that GARBAGE? Someone sent someone here from MIT? Wow, I really feel honered! And you came equipt with all the bell and whistles too.(Equations and formulas)

Listen up fellow graduate! You have no Idea what the hell you are talking about! So stop refering to you're NERD books when you need something smarmy or smart to say. The only thing you need to do is, put you're coke bottles back on your face and watch what happens tonight! Tell you're pet Pomeranian to get the hell out side b/c you are watching basketball for the first time in your life! I said pet cause after reading that over lengthy garbage, theres no way you have a mate of ANY kind. M.I.T......how awesome is that????????

now that was an impressive post Insider. The only part of it that I sorta
understood was that part about SHRINKAGE, especially since I turned 40 a
couple of years ago. Beers to shrinkage.

Vegas_Insider,
I'm a former graduate math professor and my better-half has a degree in math and is a stats wiz. We understand BLUP and are interested in the results of your study. Would you care to share here ? Or would email be better ? By the way, I noticed much of your post on BLUP was cut and paste from:

http://duke.usask.ca/~rbaker/stats6.html

Do you know Dr. Baker also?

WOW! Mr. Veg. could you put that in Yiddish? Want me to list my resume to become Tel Aviv's #1 Rabbi? Hence forward, simply "Riggs s.cks" is enough. I had to guzzle a bottle of Manoschewitz to cure my headache mid way through that novel. Welcome and Shalom to you, Mr. Veg--RX Rabbi

Oscar_Baloney: I believe Death Eats A Cracker answered you question, but I'll expand on that a little.

It took me a whopping 5 minutes to do a Google serach on "statistical analysis" and find the URL that you posted. Nice work, by the way.

I then copied and pasted pieces of that article and changed a few words around and then posted that I "have a doctorate at MIT and was valedictorian" and blah-blah-blah.

One of my points I tried to get across is that anyone can pump themselves and make up bogus "credentials" on the Internet. This is the beauty of the Internet.

The Internet is a Liar's Paradise.

Anybody can come into these forums and type up a "fake resume" or "bogus credentials", just like I did, but the difference is, I admitted that my "credentials" were erroneous later in my long diatribe.

And now this Riggs clown.

Same thing with him. Comes in here screaming and touting that he has found the "magical system that hits 70%", with all kinds of bogus "credentials" about calculus and algebraic formulas that are too hard for this "math wiz" to explain. And of course, just like every liar that has done this before him on forums like this, he has to add the lies about how this system was "92-40" before he started posting here and of course, he was "8-0" in the AFL last week.

Yeah, uh, right. Spare me.

But again, this clown types all this stuff, so all the sheep out there, desperate to find the golden 70% system, will give this dope the "benefit of the doubt" and the attention he craves. He typed it, so it must (or might) be true, let's give (this liar) a chance. Let's let him prove it.

C'mon folks. He already tried this at covers and now I see he admits that he was banned after 3 days there. He didn't even hit 50% there, got run out of there with his tail between his legs, and now it's the same thing here all over again here.

And he can't even keep his record straight with his posted plays.

After midnight, he seemed to calm down at last, actually apologized to AFL_Guru, but in the NBA forum he lied about his record, claiming that 19-17 isn't all that bad.

Well, first off, 19-17 IS Bad, considering how the math wiz who has found the secret formula and hyped it to no end, promised us 70%.

Secondly, the record is blatantly WRONG.

Try 18-21.

You are 10-11 with the NBA totals, as we are not counting that phantom pick with the Dallas/Utah game on Wednesday. It wasn't posted ANYWHERE, but of course for you, that means automatic win, after all, your system plays that went "92-40" (LMAO!) is ALSO not posted ANYWHERE.

And the Cavs/Pacers game last night was not posted, but you later hinted that it would have been an Under play (during the game, when it looked like an Under), but when the game actually went Over later, this one of course, doesn't count against your record.

Then you are 1-2 in the AFL (far cry from 8-0), 7-4 in NCAA hoops, but let's not forget 0-4 with NBA sides. You conveniently left those 4 losers off your tally.

All tolled, you are 18-21 here at the Rx, a FAR CRY from 70%.

This is what happens to this guy EVERY TIME he has to post his plays before the games start. Anybody can go 92-40 and 8-0 when the plays aren't posted ANYWHERE. But just like at covers, 50% is about as good as it gets for this guy. 55% is out of his range, 60% is a wet-dream, and 70% is a hallucinogetic fever after a night of mixing way too many drugs.

All he talks about is how many views he gets, which tells me is an expert attention-whore, but is quite obviously an amateur handicapper and probably doesn't even bet with real money.

If the sheep want to give this guy the attention he is looking for fine, just don't throw your money away on his losing picks.

The same way I typed my "credentials" at the top of my reply. None of that is actually true. None of it. But how would you know if I didn't tell you?? You wouldn't.



Death Eats a Crack and VI - I am embarrassed to say, but yes I "did" miss that part of your post, VI. Damn, got caught up in all the formulas. I actually thought you were onto something ! I never took Riggs serious from the get go and I sure don't have a dog in this fight. However, I've lurked around here for a very long time and seen quite a few like Riggs play into just enough of a hot streak to capture some attention for awhile. Most of them are probably long-term losers, but who am I to judge.

I'm always very interested in learning new ways math can be put to good use - angles and such to make some $$ off this gig.

I mean look at this pathetic Rubber Room. General writes about the value of anal sex and all the other BS in here. I guess this is where the Mods and liberals and split personalities come when they get tanked. It's like one big group therapy cluster. There is sure a diverse crowd on this forum _ i'll give theRX credit for that. There seems to be a much younger crowd around here now - mostly college pun** students who don't know a damn thing about sports gambling and even less about MATH. The best arithmetic minded posters around here seem to be some of the older crowd.


Let's add a little math to the rubber room though.

Hello, Mr. Math Ace Oscar:

Since you are a math whiz and many of the rest of us are college aged punks with no idea how to do real analysis, higher algebra, forecasting with non-linear regression, topology or any of the myriad other important subjects: answer me this very difficult question which may have an analog in set theory. If we have a set, let's call it 'The Rubber Room'; and 'The Rubber Room' set represents all those that post within a certain forum called, oddly enough, 'The Rubber Room,' then any one that posts within that forum should be considered an element of that set, 'The Rubber Room.' You, Oscar, are now an element in the rubber room set. You have participated. Don't condescend now. As I read your quote below, I just want to share with you....don't be so hard on yourself, element oscar.

I love Riggs currently on the 4 sports he bets he is a combined 28-28-4. I just hope he gets good enough to fade soon ;)

I wouldn't be surprised if he is hired by a SB to post losing picks,

suck people off into betting real $ on them, and to try to distract

and upset the winning cappers from their work in hopes they will

somehow fuuk up, such as dropping in their quality of help to

those following their plays, or even quit from posting them.
