Exactly my point Wiseguy.... 


The mods just allow it to build and build until ppl are screaming at each other to shut up...

Good luck as always with your day poolie. I’m not sure why all the hate towards this dude. If his picks sucks fade him and be thankful. If they are good follow him and win. I don’t understand why all the hate aside from him having the hottest thread daily and maybe some hurt feelings. Give him a break and let him post his picks regardless if he bets or not it’s a free site respect his rights to post.  I saw poster ask for his thread to be taken down so people don’t lose their shirt. Same person had a max bet play that lost

It's not the Mods who are at fault . 

This site is now populated with a bunch kids who have
NO experience at betting sports following a few who
don't know what they are doing half the time ,  and
demanding that every pick someone posts is a sure
winner.

Kids , in the real world of sportsbetting , it does not
happen like that. The sooner you understand that , the
better.

I've been here since 1992 (although my profile says otherwise), it's been the same then, and it's the same now. Only the names have changed. the behavior is on par with what it has always been.

That nc state game was a gigantic ass kicking. No way to have a positive bankroll after that

Tin , That is a fair statement. While I have not been
here that long , it seems that posters seem to be more
rude and more demanding of others capping skills.

It also seems that a lot of quality cappers have since
decided to no longer post their plays to the forum.

Just my opinion.

You know, people can make mistakes.  That's why I asked Poolie about that 30 unit wager that was listed as a first half wager.  I asked him to clarify if that 30 units was on the 1H or the full game.  This was well before the game started with plenty of time to correct the record.

Honest mistakes do happen...but its very hard to see this as an honest mistake when I pointed this out and others pointed it out prior to game time and no correction was made by Poolie.

Actually, it doesn't end up mattering as the full game was lost as well but everyone needs to understand exactly what happened here and make up their own mind about it.

Tinfoils,

1st, congrats on your longevity lol!

2nd, I find it hard to believe that mods think tha ppl want to wade thru all the childish crap... it doesn't happen at the other site I use, it gets nipped in the bud (as Barney Fife used to say lol).


Wiseguy,

you're right... kids in their 20's that think everybody wants to hear their wiseass comments on a losing play.  it boggles my mind.


I have checked over here occasionally for yrs... and it's that chit that makes me shake my head and walk away time after time.


gl on ur plays!

That's why most who post plays on the forum , post
their record as well.

I dont understand why so many people complain here. Poolie is just posting the picks he thinks are gonna win. There is nothing that is a guaranteed winner. He never said his picks are guaranteed to win. Grown ass adults need to be be responsible for their own decisions......

P.S. Poolie.....thank you for the time you take to post your picks....I appreciate the effort you make. thumbs_up

Let me help you understand...you are correct that grown adults are responsible for their own decision...the problem comes with other grown adults not being clear in their communication and consistent with their actions.

When Poolie posts a play as a 1H play, I expect it to be a 1H play.  What I do not expect is for him to say, after the game is over and he lost the play, that he actually meant that the play was for the FULL GAME and that he accidentally made an honest mistake when he listed it as a 1H play.

Now, if nobody had pointed out to him, some 15 minutes before the game started, that he was putting a total of 40 units on the 1H of the game...and....asked him clearly and directly if he meant to put 40 units on the 1H of the game...then Poolie might have an out here that he made an "honest mistake".

But that is NOT what happened.  I, and others, asked him to clarify if he was actually putting 40 units on that 1H play.  He cannot say he did not read it or see it...it was clearly posted multiple times.

This brings up the strong possibility that Poolie wanted to have it both ways, so to speak...he wanted to have his cake and eat it too, by leaving that 40 units as an unclarified selection.  If it wins, he can say..wow...I just won 40 units...it if loses, he can say...my bad, honest mistake on my part.

When grown adults are not be clear in their communication, honest in their actions and consistent with their behaviors, other grown adults should think long and hard as to if they want to follow their lead as they may be led down the wrong path.

The wrong path in this case cost people a lot of money.

Understand better now?

@smacksmiter....you are an idiot. How are you gonna blame anyone on here for posting any picks. I dont see anyone asking for money for the picks. If you follow someone and lose....that is your fault. If you dont like the way someone posts their picks....then leave the thread and follow someone else.

I think it was obvious that it could’ve been a mistake...seeing how when he post his bet for 10 u 1h NC state it said nothing about being an additional play 

Just chill and let him post plays. Follow or don’t ...kep the nonsense out of here.

I guess no one seems to mind losing a 30 unit wager.

That's OK . They'll get it back tomorrow.

Nobody has to bet 30 units on any of his plays.  The guy has good picks.  You decide how many units. I don't think anyone following him that was a $100 gambler was putting 3000 on any of his plays.
