Default Re: Assani\'s NFL Wagering Thread

Performify, thanks for the reply. I would more than encourage you to ban every and all posters who ever resort to personal insults.

As for me listing my week 1 picks, let me explain to you my reasoning...The main reason I post here it to get better. I think that by posting all of my picks(including the unverifiable ones) it gives people more of a sample size to see my betting habits and perhaps my weaknesses and mistakes.

Let me give you an example:

Suppose someone came to the low stakes HE forum and wanted some help, so he posted a bunch of hand histories. Some of them were exact online hand histories with complete info. Some others he didn't copy and paste and he just was going by memory. He happened to be a winner over the ones in which he didn't have the exact hand histories. If he did this, do you really think people would say to him "Oh you're obviously lying about winning those hands since you didn't copy and paste the HHs" or do you think they'd just believe him and offer him their advice?

Why is this forum so much different? Why is everyone so obsessed with their record and showing off? If I went into any of the poker forums here and claimed to have won 3 hands, nobody would doubt me. Yet I come in here and claim to have won 3 picks and everyone gets all excited and attacks my character.

As for the no juice lines, I really don't see why you're faulting me for finding a better bet than you guys found(my friend offered me no juice lines). If 99% of all books have one team at -6.5 points and laying -110 juice, but you go out and find a great line that has -6 and only -105 juice then should you not be able to include that bet in your results? Isn't trying to find good lines one of the "skills" of sports betting? Why was I penalized for finding a guy willing to bet me with no juice?



I hate to continue to derail this thread, but I absolutely will not stand by and watch as people insult my personal character and my honesty. Performify, all I want to do is talk about football wagering in this thread. My recommendation is that any post in here discussing anything else should be deleted by you and the person be given a warning/suspension/ban.
