ZAPSTER and TATERS AGREED PLAYS*** TO DATE**

[Zapster]

So much for dreaming.....hated to lose that one !!

I have two more play today....I will call Tater in a bit and see if he agrees with either of them.

 

[SportSavant]

Everyone knows that even the best in the world hit around 55% to 60%...Zap & tate have been Phenomenal...

The only people that will get in trouble is those who see the 70% record & go crazy...Must keep your units consistent & yout M Management sound to survive these downturns....If these guys can get us 60% we will all make alot of money & should be very happy....Bashers...PLEASE...it is ok to think your thoughts but dont waste space in this thread...

The best in the world have losing days, weeks & even months...so to all the bashers:

Thanks Sport,,,, and ARTh,,, Geesh,, noone takes it more presonally than me,,, I make every play with my wallet,,, as does Mike,,, so you think your feeling the pinch,I am too,,

I have preeched in this thread a dozen times for people to keep their Units in checdk,,, NOONE HITS 70%,,, the fact ZAP and I did even for a few days is SICK AMAZING,,,
VIRTUALLY NOONE can touch 65% weve held tha win % for months,,,, so GUYS,,,, be patient,,, I promise this thing is going to be pointed inthe right direction tonight,,,,, if not tomorrow!!

ZAP will be posting an agreede play in a bit,,, this is according to all the same formulas that has brought us to 70%,,, we WILL continue to hit,, so hold tight,,,, and lets kick the mans ASS,,,

thanks to all that support what werre trying to do,,, you will not be sorry,,,

Tater

 

[hardcorecap]

hey guys lets do it tonight.. alot of people support you here.. just keep those winners coming... ill be waiting for tonights plays..

 

[Zapster]

I know I keep saying this, but you guys are SO supportive, it is really overwhelming.....and the fact thatyou have remained loyal even while Tate and I have hit a bit of a bump really says a lot.

Please know that I take the fact that others are investing in these picks VERY seriously...as does Tate. In fact he and I just spoke on the phone about that very subject.

And there is one more thing we talked about: Tonight's Los Angeles game. We both calculated this one as an OVER. In fact this is one of my "biggies." I then found out Shaq might not play and so I called him to make sure that didn't back him off. It doesn't. We both seem to think this will be a Kobe/Gary track meet.

So.....

Here is tonight's "agreed play.....":

Los Angeles OVER 205

Let's grab another split and move on from here !!

 

[SweeptheBoard]

160 points thru 3

16 points in the first 6 1/2 minutes (only 4 for the stinking clippers) - we need someomne to pull away so there's fouling at teh end

when its close they milk it down to less than 5 on the clock

OT would be loved by me

 

[SweeptheBoard]

derek fisher missed a free throw to tie it at 99 w/ 51 secs left;

way too many missed FT's at the end - lakers missed a shot to tie at the end

we stole defeat out of the jaws of victory - disappointing finish

 

[Zapster]

Well THAT really sucked. I would like to contend that we capped these games correctly and were unlucky, but there is no escaping the fact that we have gone 1-6 since that great moment when we hit the 70% mark.

It is NOT fun to post to these threads after a day like this, but I think it is important to be willing to take one's lumps after a bad day.

I will say I have no desire to do any 'capping tonight and so I will sleep this one off and approach tomorrow's games after a good night's rest.

I don't know of anything to add that hasn't already been said.

We are now:

YTD 36-21 - 63.16% Winners

 

[SweeptheBoard]

zapster - being from LA, i assume you watched it? was the 4th qtr as ugly as it seemed?

 

[Zapster]

Sweep....it was uglier than that !! But as ugly as it was it looked like a win right up to the moment that Fish missed the free throw that would have tied it. I'm just glad I wasn't at the game.

 

[MrBing113]

The plays could have easily gone 2-0. I'm sure you guys will bounce back.

I think a fact that often gets overlooked in gambling over the long term is that losing is very much a part of the journey. Just as long as we hit the magic 55-60% (or in Tater's case, 70%), everything'll be ok.

Keep up the good work.

[tatehill2000]

Bing,,, youa re right,,,

What I think most people lose sight of is that as much as we were robbed of 3 wins in the last 6 losses,,, Loseing is part of handicapping,,, hence the REASON ZAP AND I STRESS NEVER TO UNLOAD $$$$$ on the picks,,, yes we have a great win %,,, BUT GEESH,,, crazy shit happens,,, and we lose ones we should of won,,, an win some we should of lost,,,, UGH,,,, this makes me sick,,,,

anyway,,, I am paying my bookie tomorrow,,, that is an ODD feeling,,, ONE I dont Intend on getting used to,,,haha,,, UGH,,,,,,

Tater

 

[Zapster]
