You should make yourself a unit. Mine personally is 100. With a 20k+ bankroll and a 1-10 unit scale, I practice bankroll management. My max bet is 1000. If any of my experts I use release a 10 unit (GOY, GOM, etc) I will not stand to get hurt if it happens to lose. Also, I don't always play for the 10 units. I bet between 200-500 day in and day out, and have been winning consistantly since I started taking this seriously week 1 of NFL last season. The key here is bankroll management. Don't worry if your expert doesn't address something. If that type of thing is going to piss you off, use someone else, quit jeprodizing such a high % of your roll, don't wine, or just quit betting all together.

No feuds and hating here Lump. Your picks have been solid bro. And I can tell you should as former CT guy, you should give up CT for Vegas.
CappersNow, you are right of course, bankroll mangagement is the key to everything. And, of course, you can't expect 'cappers to comment on every right or wrong pick. But when the analysis reads, "easiest NBA money of the season" and the team loses by 25 with Dwight Howard riding the pine most of the game...well, ouch. And still his last ten picks are showing the Mets under as a win and the $50,000 chart shows it as a push. Can't have it both ways.....
Been a big fan of Ted Sveransky for years. He shines on the Sportsmemo radio show every morning and has made me good $$. Bruce Marshall (the Gold Sheet) also provides solid analysis.
Lump, Dimes....are you guys still considering firing up a picks contest when the current $50,000 contest ends?

Lump, I like your idea of creating another thread.....but I think Prez said he is creating a thread for this group after the contest is over. I am may be wrong....

Another GREAT night Do not know if Prez's push constitutes win. If not, then the 25K is off the table and Ted takes it home. I did hear on the radio that whomever Ted picks today Prez will pick opposite to tie(??)
Prez, Lump, 44Dimes, CappersNow - Thanks for the LOOT
My Jays ROMPED and I am 3-1.
GL today fellas.
Also, I vote for new thread w/ a GREAT heading

Thanks, 44Dimes/Lump for keeping this 50K challenge updated adn most importantly your picks. I came in the thread when it was 2/3rds over and enjoyed and look forward to each day on this thread.
I would like to suggest a new thread w/ someone winning something (tickets, trophy, show, etc). I'm sure we can work something out.
GL on you picks 44Dimes. If there is playoff...we will continue Monday.

Didn't the mets lose last night ? Your showing 44Dimes pick as winner. BOL to all of you.
Yes that's righ Lump marked mets as a winner but in fact they did lose but he got my RTD right at 28-21 and of course i was 28-20 the previous day . You gotta give Lump some slack here he works hard keeping track of everything and once in a while will make an honest misprint GL Saltpetey

Great job to you guys for keeping this alive and interesting!
How about this start a new thread with the start of the NBA Playoffs? A couple of us could volunteer to track the select 10's picks or we could alternate by the week (so one or two guys don't get overwhelmed).
We need SOMETHING to get us through to football season! LOL

We should keep this thread until the 50K is officially over. That way noone gets confused. We have people here that are not very bright .
I am new on Covers (03/09) so do not know how to navigate or start new threads. I will follow the majority on this thread or new.
Once that 50k officially ends i will throw out some ideas on this thread so we can come up with a nice handicapping contest. I think it will be great a competitive nature brings out the best in everyone and i think most of us will benefit.

Some NBA food for thought for my 'capping brothers.....The Hornets are +200 (Series Price) and finally have their core players healthy. Nuggets seem like a vulnerable #2 seed at 2-1, even with the ever-important NBA home floor. Thoughts?
