replied to General Sharps 2014-2015 NHL Picks in NHL Betting Guys. I am going to take a vacation. I have seen these weeks before where nothing goes right. I am going to take a week off and relax. Sometimes you just need to unplug. Maybe take the wife to Montreal for a few days before the kids get home for the holidays. Sorry for the disappointment. It's been a rough season thus far. I will be back eventually. Wish you guys all the best. View Post \| View Thread	GeneralSharp	1204	November 19, 2014 View Post \| View Thread
replied to General Sharps 2014-2015 NHL Picks in NHL Betting What the hell is going on in the NHL? 9-2 Nashville? 2-0 Dallas, than implode and are down 4-2... Barfalo dusts the Sharks again... 2-3 so far, with a Anaheim win (up 1-0 so far) will break even on singles but this season is wacky.

replied to General Sharps 2014-2015 NHL Picks in NHL Betting Quote Originally Posted by Learnersrealm: It's like your baseball season which started late and died.

You like to go into peoples threads and attack them. It's too bad your life is so pathetic that's all you do. I see you have posted many losers. It's all over your posts and covers space record. No wonder you are so miserable. Your life is so empty and you are a broke loser. I pity you. If you find comfort coming in here, and you feel the need to attack me to distract you from your insecurities and shy away from your pathetic life, well...you can find refuge here. Welcome loser.

replied to General Sharps 2014-2015 NHL Picks in NHL Betting Quote Originally Posted by Learnersrealm: Getting SU's right is the key. Parlays are Vegas heaven. The fact you even suggested parlays to entice those geared for action is negligent and you should know that. People are going to do what they are going to do. I never encouraged people to bet parlays. I merely provided parlay picks as requested. I encourage people again and again to practice bankroll management. If you read over the thread, you will see I have said this many times and to even reduce the size of bet on the parlay. I have 15 parlay bets in this thread and 202 singles bets. It's pretty obvious that encourage people to bet singles. You should know that. View Post \| View Thread	GeneralSharp	1204	November 17, 2014 View Post \| View Thread
replied to General Sharps 2014-2015 NHL Picks in NHL Betting Quote Originally Posted by puckluck61: I'm sorry man... I've been keeping an eye on your proceedings and Its clear that you don't even know what "expected value" is. What is your expected value? How many parlays are you in reality going to hit? How many SU wins? Are you expecting to hit 60+% or 55+%? Beacuse the Ducks are playing the Panthers in no way is that automatically a +EV play. Advice lay off the puck Iine plays and worry about getting some SU wins going for you first. And ditch the parlays all together. GL This is all relative. We all have our own models, systems, betting methods. I don't believe one is better than the other. You may believe yours is +EV and mine is not. That's ok. I will be the first to admit even my betting methods are not the best they could be. However, what I do works. It works good enough for me. I win profit. I make enough money each year to support my current lifestyle. Everything could be more efficient. We should all strive to squeeze out every last bit of EV from a betting situation. I don't because I don't need to. I am happy winning what I win. Not this year, but overall each year. I expect there will be bad months, or even a bad year. If you strive to make as much money as you can, so you can have more money than you need, then all the power to you. Last night I believed the Ducks PL was a good bet. Not the ml, not the regulation bet. The puck line at +150. Perry was back. The team was healthier. They were rested, but... they laid an egg. It happens. I highly doubt anyone thought the Florida panthers, a much inferior team, coming off a east coast to west coast flight, were going to destroy the Ducks. It happens. That is sports. All the best to you. I will continue to do what I do and at the end of the season only than will I consider it a victory or defeat. Not over a 1 month sample size.

I am sure you are a good guy and not a troll but I am really tired of all the covers bs from degenerate. Listen, whatever I say, there is no way to prove it. Just watch the thread and the picks. After half a season you should be able to estimate a reasonable win rate. View Post \| View Thread	GeneralSharp	106	November 17, 2014 View Post \| View Thread

replied to General Sharps 2014-2015 NHL Picks in NHL Betting Just to be clear, every pick I post here is a pick I would bet. I would never post plays I think are -EV. Some days I just can't get bets in time. Others I play actually more. Some days I will take a parlay. It all really depends on the flow. When I have a bad weak, I am in research mode. I look into why plays failed. I re-evaluate and try to optimize. If some internet loser comes in and calls me a losing player after 2 months of posting, he is an idiot. A 2 month sample size is a drop in the bucket. Any logical intelligent person would understand it is about the long run, it's about managing your money and betting +EV plays. And just for the record, I have posted a profit overall in NBA, MLB, and NHL singles despite this idiots claims. It may not be much yet, but at least I am not a losing player. There can be months of winning streaks, losing streaks, and voids breaking even. I am not here to provide picks to get people rich. I am here to talk to the betters, have some good constructive conversation, and give my advice. Will post NHL plays in 10 minutes. Sorry to cut it close but my wife hosted a baby shower and I had to run around picking up food and supplies all day.
