The bitch of it is that because I posted this....now the books that aren't in on that whole game are gonna find their way to it. Being successful at gambling is for the few and far between......the rest pay up. Best of luck to all....don't get me wrong....sorry to put a damper on this whole sub-culture....but it's a charade.

natty, you are not the first person that I have heard make these accusations, but I still don't believe them.

I know I am putting my self out by posting shit like this. I'm not some young dumb punk mouthing off. The thing is that no one is gonna know for sure, the legality (or lack there of) of this whole industry allows stuff like this to go on...who's gonna go after a off-shore book? They can do it if they so please. Big money makes the big decisions. Big money can do what they want in the world we live in today.

That's not why your thread got moved here.  You and your thread got tossed in the penalty box for being dumber than WOOD.

I am not going to say that it isn't happening, but I really don't see a point if it was.

You must think the rest of the world has as little integrity as you do.  Many people cannot be bought off.

Crowkiller - the only point is to add another way of gaining losses back..........business move by the books...simple as that. It's by no means their only way of course....just another they have 'realized'

   Right.  Look, the only people that are even going to see your stupid ramblings are us idiots hanging out in the penalty box on a Friday night.

True enough, so why would the online books feel the need to carry out some cock-eyed conspiracy designed to trip people up when nearly everyone is going to lose their ass anyway?

But do you really think the books even need to bother doing this?

You gotta look at it from a business stand point. You can't count on people to make bad bets on their own all the time (granted there are regular fuck up's who do). Gotta have some back up plans in the works like any successful business venture

I'm going to conclude that big money will never find its way into your hands.

Actually, you can.  If you're a bookie, you can pretty much count on it season after season, year after year.  That's why there's no need to take the ridiculous and desperate measures you're suggesting.  Horrible bettors beat themselves, and the vast majority are simply horrible.

You're only succeeding in trying to make a few people dumber and I'm fruitlessly trying to thwart your efforts.

MrBator - Gaining big money isn't my concern, just trying to make people aware.....you can still KILL the books if you know what you are doing, but be careful who you follow, or who you take advice from on here. Alot of young cats on here who gotta realize and wise up

natty, do you realize that all it would take is for one guy to blow the whistle to fuck everything up for a reputable book?

They don't need that kind of risk.

You MrBator seem to be a little too much on the side of the books and downing this statement. Take it or leave it, use it as you will

Your premise is one of the dumber things I've seen posted on Covers over the years.  I should know, because I've been accused many times (by the biggest morons on Earth) of deliberately posting losing plays in order to bury everyone who chose to follow my lead.  Now how fucking stupid is that?  I only wish I was as sharp as guys like you think I am.  Knowing when games are going to tank would be just as valuable to me as knowing when they're going to win.  I wish I were that good!

 

Nattyboh, you're coming off like an imbecile here.  Hurry up and save yourself.
