I missed it, but even at (+15.5) I knew it was still a great bet, so I played it... that's a bonus win, because it was posted and he gave good information...
but what happened... a bunch of pussies didn't bet the game because the line had moved too much, and they gave Wahoo garbage about the line he got...
who pays the price? the NON-idiots like me who know when and how to utilize good information...
I'm not losing any sleep over it... 4 out of 5 times I still wouldn't bet his play, unless I already liked it myself... but it continues to be friggin ridiculous that the EXTREMELY small number of valuable cappers are catching ANY grief from the clueless masses around here...
this is a fact and ALMOST ALL OF YOU need to get this through your friggin heads: you can't cap for garbage! you depend on the very small number of us who can... bow down, and shut the darn up while we few do our work for you sorry leeches! keep all future commentary to yourselves... because, to recap... you don't know garbage about this game, and don't stand a chance over the longhaul, if you were left to do this on your own!
That message applies to almost all of you, and if you aren't sure... then yes, it applies to you! But if you want to make money here, you will swallow your friggin pride, and shut the darn up, and let the masters do their work...
Wahoo is one of those people... he can post whatever friggin lines he wants, because any information he provides, is still worth infinitely more than the marbles rattling around inside your pee-brain skull! The fact that he gets (+21.5) while you get (+15.5) is the bonus he earns by knowing what he knows, without ever having to consult any of YOU for your worthless opinions...
GET IT?
Another excellent post by you Ice4Blood, and I could not have said it better myself, as that is the way it should be, but many do not want to put the time and effort into the work that is involved. For me it is a year round process, along with Workhorse and a couple of others.
Good luck this week and for the season, and I hope to see you at the pay window many times!
