The market analogy might be more relevant as investor emotions are at play, but in gambling it doesn't work that way. 

For everyone who tails target_9, I hope you are right.  I am choosing to stay off today and wish him luck.

As far as the difference in using prior results to predict future outcomes, we will have to agree to disagree.  I believe that a gambler is more likely to have a losing day after going 100%.  I am sure many will agree with you.  That is just the way I see it.

This is exactly correct.  The market used to be about fundamentals and the laws of supply and demand.  Today the market revolves around speculation and the amount of money large (ie Goldman, Glencore) can put on their trades has a huge impact on the market.

If you walk up to Albert Pujols and tell him that you just laid 100k on the cardinals to win that is not going to effect the outcome of the baseball game.  Capping and Investing are a like in the matters of research and analytics when it comes to deciding which positions your going to take in the market, but the outside factors are much different. 

Juming on T9 for one day after he goes and expecting him to go 11-0 again is rediculous.  He didn't create the record over night, he had winning days and losing days. 

If your going to tail T9 stick with his plays win or lose, don't jump off day in and day out or you are going to lose.  70% could mean 100%, 0%,0%, 100% etc...

Just my 2 cents, but I will tail T9 as he does his research and has a proven track record over a long period of time.

So did you decide to "stay off" before or after the first two games?

Nevermind. Your post time stamp answers that question.

Maybe Target 9 is going to step back and enjoy his cash for a while and let things simmer.

I'm sure that 0-3 start to today and -30 units smarts after last night's haul. But it's all about grinding and he's one of the best. Only he doesn't grind. He bulldozes! 

He'll get it back.

Hey man, quick question. I am 9bet on the Brewers but Zambrano's numbers against them have been awesome. He is 7-0 in his last 7 road starts against them. Does this worry you?

Glad to see you taking it easy after this morning.  No sense you give it all back.  Long way to go.
