Don't like the lines, don't make the bet. pretty simple.
Your own handicapping should tell you what you feel, not someone else.
Leventis posts among the earliest in this forum (along with cappologist) and basically never posts within several hours of tipoff.

This is such an amateur comment to make. From opening to closing lines YES they do move 4 points. Without even looking very hard I can tell you that today’s UL Monroe game opened with a total of 141.5, is down to 138.5 (3 points), and may close even lower.
But the only way you will probably see this is to be looking at the lines the minute that the books put them up. At that time you should already have the majority of your handicapping done (which is usually about 24 hours beforehand), and you should be expecting a line to move in your favor. Therefore you place your bet immediately on the opening line. If you’re not doing anything like this…quit.

I think everyone is over thinking this. At end of day Leventis picks were more solid as I’ve seen in these forums in a long time. I didn’t read all messages on here but there were some facts and a lot of nonsense.
my solid opinion/ guess is this…. He posted his plays and by the scale he appeared to use, 1unit = 1k. If he said 5x it would be 5k. Did he really bet those amounts? Who knows and who cares. His picks most certainly won way more than they lost (don’t think anyone could argue this). Then one day another member started a thread saying he is tailing all of his picks and said how much he was betting on these plays which was double or so more than Leventis said he was betting on his own plays. Went as far as to tell everyone what he was going to buy with his winnings. I am sure in his mind he was flattering Leventis but I don’t think it did.
Why would you continue to post when someone is starting a thread saying he is betting 2-3x more than you are on your own picks and is going to buy a 100k car with it.
in short I think that if this didn’t happen then Leventis would have continued as he would regardless of whatever haters there were. The fact that Leventis posted, gave units, and tried to keep as accurate of a record as he could is a courtesy and not a paid job.
I for one always looked forward to seeing what he was on. I am not a blind follower and sure wouldn’t have tripled his wager amount, created a thread, then bragged about what I was gonna buy with his picks. All I can say

@Dongjohnson
He was/is an absolute fraud and betting with monopoly money
Every single capper goes on hot streaks...that's why he was/is posting "I'm up huge since jan.24th"
Here is the 100k loss that he just decided not to count...easy to sweep losses under the rug
https://www.covers.com/forum/nfl-betting-21/4-props-mnf-103894194
Maybe he was on a hot streak with his monopoly money since jan.24th but he most definitely is not a profitable bettor and is lying to his "followers"
It's all a cry out for attention/help...a fun life in a fantasy world
Cant wait for the next 100k banger!!!
Let's get rich!!!!!

I guess I don’t understand “fraud”. He posts the plays and it wins or it loses. I take the scale as a confidence level. Whether it’s $10-$50 or $1,000-$5,000. Just my feelings. I never seen him brag or double down or anything. Seemed to have integrity to me buddy.
also anyone posting in here isn’t only betting what they post or posting everything they play. I’m sure following a record can get messed up pretty easily. I see it time and time again when someone follows someone who loses and they get all aggrevated and start trashing them. “You didn’t post juice, line was off, ect…). Really all that is about is the guy blindly followed a loss and wanted to say how bad a capper sucks.
personally I hate the posers. I could care less about the actual play as I would never blindly follow without doing research but the b.s of some of these guys is crazy.
