March Madness...Covers vs an offshore account

goodluck... interested to see the results!

Funny you say that, if there are winnings I am going to do something for the forum ( probably a contest of sorts) not sure what. Lets jump off that bridge when we get there!

There is no max bankroll I will play through the entire tourney even if the guys go 0-22 to start ( you SOBs better not!!) .

If I lose 10k the first week I will still play week 2, I am in for the whole tourney.

PS  If I had "bankroll issues" I would not be doing this      Remember there will be times I take a worse number then I can get in 5 different spots I have at that very moment I put the bet in. I am doing this to illustrate to the typical covers member with access to one line or two max that they can utilize covers to make $$$ with limited resources, lines and quite frankly handicapping ability. This is about discipline and money  management and  tailing the right guys etc etc. It is just an experiment but I can assure you the bet are not going to be for 100 dollars or anything like that.

I have no clue how it will turn out but I am curious, we have alot of pretty good cappers on covers so why not have a little fun?

Just curious thou...... Are you really expecting to show a profit at the end of the tournament tailing picks? Or are you prepared to take some kind of lost with no bad feelings...... will you be determining how many units to play or are you going to follow the exact play of the covers capper?

I think absolutely these guys could show a profit. We have some real solid cappers here, and we have some real lemons. I of course will be tailing the ones that I respect. I will not bet "every play" that will not be possible, sometimes they will be against each other so how could I? What I will do is play some games early see who is running good and play them, guys who are not I will wait till they heat up and then try to catch them on a rush etc etc

If I lose I lose OF COURSE...I will never complain, I am a grown man I call my guys and bet no one else does. I bet my money not theirs and I collect it or pay it not them. No hard feelings no matter what.  

I will be determining how many units and such, that is where discipline and money management comes into play.

BTW I spoke to the agent I called to open this acct...we are up and running

KOAJ,

Thank you very much, I 100% will for sure.  Also any other covers people, if you think there is someone I NEED to put in my little experiment please post it here. I will look them up and make a decision, it is greatly appreciated.

Dog,  I was just saying bankroll cuz it will be fun to talk in actual dollars and not units!!!   It will just make it more real, that is all.

Ok unit is going to be more then likely 1000....

I did not want to say  amount because every time my boy bator mentions amounts the haters come swarming in.  But I understand your point that if I dont say amount we could all be getting excited over nonsense, if lets say a unit was 50 bucks and we were up 12 units. So that is a unit. 1000

Like I said acct is up , will start tonite, win or lose it will be fun

Also again at the end I will let KR and TSW and KOAJ and a few others access the account to see the veracity of this experiment. Just  4 or 5 guys whos world in here is gold and are willing to do so.

Tonite the plays will be in before 6 pm then I will  be off line until morning.

Should I do a unit recap every few days or is once a week ok?

OK I understand, maybe even will help out others in the forum also during the tourney...... I will post plays in this thread when I lock them in.  Also a small write up why if time is available. Rarely I will not be by a comp but with IPHONE I can do it 95% of time.  I am travelng today at 6pm but after today will be stationary until thurs late at night. Then flying to vegas on redeye so again that wont affect posting of plays, will be in LV thru weekend. So after tonite, I will be posting as much as possible, and later tonite I will be posting the first plays for our experiment. 

I will use his thread thru the first weekend.....GL all

LOL ok you in for 90%..Hell you do 80% and we can do 10000

Looks like I may have a partner

OK guys experiment is over...I am riding with these guys

Will send you all Bentleys after the tourney

Bentley? how about pasta rockets?
