3-5 (-275 Units). I had to purchase some points here and there to match Veripicks lines---nothing drastic.

A really impressive pick on Seton Hall to start the day, but rough riding the rest of the way; just some bad breaks here and there. Toledo almost had it, and Western Michigan collapsed in the 2nd half.

We'll get it back tomorrow. I'm excited!

Thanks!

Very tough night last night, hopefully we get back on track tonight. I'm with you SJP those games last night were horrible to watch and even worse when I saw the final scores.

Tad: What's crazy with Veripicks is that if I really LOVE one of it's plays, that's the one that loses and when I hate a play or it worries me that's the one that covers. I guess it's Vegas way of keep us betting big on games we love (and losing) and small on ones we hate (and winning). That's why you gotta stick with a system and use solid money management. That is probably the hardest lesson that a gambler can learn.

Just took a look at the watchlist and there are some really strong plays tonight. Good luck to all of us and Veripicks too of course.

Not sure exactly what happened but the Norther Ill. game got picked about 30 minutes after it started. 

Hopefully we can finish the night out with a few wins!

8-15 Tonight (-915 Units)
34.8%

11-20 Overall (-1190 Units) --- 2 Days
35.5%

Rough night; Providence seemed to provide a good sign, but the night went downhill from there.

The law of averages should start to balance out and winning should be around the corner!

Thanks!

Wow, two days straight with losses. I can't make any excuses for it, we've been through the picks for the last 6 hours and they were all legit plays. The Detroit game by far was the strongest of the night and it wasn't even close really. Seems like this happens at least 1 to 2 times per month we just can't figure out when to predict it. 8-15 (35%) -$825 with 6 straight losses to close the night out. Unbelievable... If anything this show us this is a very streaky system, meaning when it goes good it's gravy but when it goes bad it stings a little.

Guys, my apologies on last night, believe me it hurt us too. Keep your head up and we will grind this back out. Let's look forward to a strong week and big weekend.

Good Luck tonight!

I've noticed, lately, that a lot of the plays have very low records (1-0 100% or even 0-0) as the PWin thing. How can they be legit plays when there appears to be insufficient data? yesterday veripicks had Iowa +8ish (a 6:30pm tip off with Penn St) as a very strong play with a PWin of something like 2-1 67%... but then closer to tip off it completely fell off the map with just a couple #s tipping the PWin to 2-3 40% which took the play from "strong" to "no play". Why was it a strong play to begin with when just a tiny bit of info completely knocked it off the card? Because of this, I am always hesitant on all watchlist games until immediately prior to tip-off... which makes it difficult to utilize the system to it's fullest.

Keep up the good work!

Tad: When we pulled in the new data feeds it changed how it scores the games on the site - not how it picks the games - just how it scores them. When that changes it effected everything from that day forward, hence your seeing 2-0, 0-2, etc. very low numbers because it hasn't had a chance to build up it's history (usually takes about a week or two). It still uses all the old information, you just can't see it in the interface. The PWin is significant only to a certain extent, it is more of a comfort level when you see it on the site, as it's one of many factors we use in ranking/scoring the games.

SJP: I don't think that would be a big problem, I'll ask how much work it would be to add in where you can choose specific dates for your queries on the history. Doesn't sounds like a big deal to me.

Good Luck tonight!

well a winning night is a successful night regardless of the !

i noticed the >80 did substantially better again today. Personally i play all the games that it shoots out. Some days the "70" plays pop out more winners then the 80 90. so it all white washes in the end.

23-30 Overall (-1140 Units) --- 3 Days
43.4%

12-10 yesterday for a small profit with losing juice on the 10 losses. I've decided to not buy points moving forward to match Veripicks lines and just play the lines available.

Best of luck today!

We ended up going 5-4-1 (56%) +65 last night and squeezed out a small profit. I've been excited about today all week and hopefully Veripicks comes through for us in a big way.

bigrick2234 - the new ranking system for particularly 80 unit plays is very interesting. I can't really explain why the 80 unit play has been so strong but today might be one of those days to play only the 80-100 unit plays if it starts spitting out games in bunches. We are going to continue to play them all today and wait to see how the 80+ unit plays do over the next week or so.

I'll try and check back tonight and see how everyone on here is doing. Hopefully we are all counting our cash!!

For everyone who isn't a Veripicks member, don't forget to check out our free play available almost every day.

You can get it here - we try and post it early enough for you to get a great line. Today's play was posted at 7:00AM EST and you can see what happened to it. We might post another later today if you can't get this line close to what we have it at.

Good Luck everyone !

Great start to today! I'm only playing 80 units+.

Usually, as the day wears on, the win-loss percentage starts to balance out. Is anyone else considering fading the rest of the day, or as the end of the day nears?

Thanks!

I have an idea... so I thought I'd run it through here to see what you guys think.

I know this may be a conservative approach to gaining a profit... but it appears to me that this approach may be best overall.

To gurantee profit after a great start to the day, why not have the system stop making plays? For example... yesterday would've been a huge profit if the system would recognize that it was hitting at a very high rate and the +/- was very high. From that high point, it could only go down... so why not have the system recognize this by having it stop making plays after a profit of +$500 or something. This will also raise the overall winning percentage. I understand that it might limit huge winning nights... but a conservative approach will be more profitable in the long run.

This is just me thinking out loud. I always favor a conservative approach to gurantee a better winning percentage. Better winning percentage = higher profit!

Wow! How about that Manhattan game!

Anyway, I agree 100% with anyone who would take the conservative approach with Veripicks. You have to remember this is a machine just spitting out plays. We (speaking about my group of betters) were up over 10 big bets yesterday and decided to sit out the rest of the afternoon. SJP I wish I had seen your post - you hit it right on the head - but I would NEVER fade this system - I would however support stop win/loss once you reach 5x your max bet per day (you have to set this number for yourself based on your bankroll).

That is a conservative approach and you might miss out on some days where it wins big after losing but you will also miss out on days like yesterday where it wins huge early and gives most of it back in the end.

Let's hope Loyola, St. John's can hold on to our ML play! We would already have reached our max wins and for some could walk away after the first 5 games! BTW - feel free to discuss it's plays in this thread - just wait until after the 2H has started.

5-0! (+610)

Nice St. John's ML pick! Woohoo!

I'm stopping for today, but I'll keep an eye on how the day plays out. There's a ton of plays for a Sunday!

Best of luck everyone else, hopefully we keep rolling tomorrow!

Very nice SJP - glad you nailed it!

Also there is a new report available next to the Watchlist under the Home button called 'Big Games'. It points out all the top bet games for the day and any plays that Veripicks has on them. Watch out for this report because Veripicks tries to point out the games where the sportsbooks let the most money get on a single side (just like on the Duke game). Pretty neat stuff!

Good Luck with the rest of today or for people like SJP just count your money and go to the movies!!! Nice job!

Looks like we still have one game pending but I'm calling it a night! Finishing 8-2 (80%) +810 is a great feeling! Hitting St. Johns on the Moneyline makes it even sweeter!!

We may have had a few tough days in the last week, but get ready because this system will continue to learn how it picks games and hopefully we'll see more days like today.

Wow, congrats to all of us who got P-A-I-D today!! See you guys tomorrow night for a big Monday, let's hope it goes just like today!
