Congrats diver!
I am amused at the little boys' comments towards you and yet you just post another pick, totally ignoring them. Class way to handle the basements dwellers. I think this frustrates them as much as your play ratings.
Great job, again.

Big problem with these supposed bets is that Diver puts lets say $10MM on a -220 ML play....that really costs you $22MM to win the $10MM but when Diver loses the bet he only counts losing $10MM but will claim the full amount if it hits.

I don't pay attention to all the digits, I'm looking for diver's picks.
This might help some of you that are having a problem, if you really want to come to his threads, just look at the picks. If you don't like the big moneyline picks, stay away.
Last night he went 3 out of 4, that's all.
This is pretty easy.

I disagree with your assessement.   You say Diver was 3-1 on the night and then he rolls up a high total win percentage.  The reality is on what we would deem normal spread bets diver was 1-1, but the bets on favorite and heavy favorite were 2-0.  These should not be included in any win totals, because obviosuly the odds of being 2-0 are quite good on a ML -220 and -160 bet.   He also lost on what I'm assuming is a larger play of the night in UMASS at $10MM, so that also needs to be considered if you were to just "tail" Diver with the aim of making money. 

I have noticed this person now for a few years, and not saying there aren't good streaks of picks provided, but you can't just put faith in tailing anything based on win percentages or any rolled up totals provided.   I can say that if you were to total all of Diver's underdog ML bets, the win percentage would be low.

In any event, it's all really more of a "funny" thread type of thing so I get that too.
