Recreational capper here (Up 16% YTD). Ive been following this thread for a couple months now and doing extremely well following Jord20. Anyone else actively following him here? U guys think he's the best capper on the site?
Jord 20... the best?

I am what I am. I've been gambling successfully for 20 years. I still learn everyday. NOBODY always wins, and I'm nowhere close to that status.
I post in all sports, almost daily, with heavy volume, so there will be plenty of losers posted and losing streaks had. This, of course, leaves me open to a lot of criticism.
I can tell you that every time I have posted a record, (NCAA tourney, NBA playoffs, NFL playoffs, etc, etc,), I have won. Usually over a decent period of time, I will be a solid winner. I have explained this a million times, but since you are new, I will briefly explain it again...
In general, I don't keep a record on here. Why? I play HUGE volume. I have a full-time job (which often takes me into stuff at home too), I love to read, and a family that I love to spend time with. I also play different pars and at different places, so to keep track of what I post vs what I actually play is a fruitless effort. I keep track of my money- and that is not something I like to share on a daily basis. I will, however just sometimes copy and paste plays I make because it is quicker and easier than posting and breaking it down. In short, I don't have the time nor the inclination to keep and update a record that doesn't mean anything to me. When it is convenient to keep records, I will. I have nothing to hide, I assure you.
This is a sports handicapping forum - if you only followed people who kept accurate, everyday, and winning records - the list would be about 2. Maybe. You know I am good, and a long run winner by watching around here - and if anyone wants to track me for any period of time, I am up to the challenge.
I do know that I am as prepared for an NFL season as I have been in a while. You can track me in the Hilton contest this year too.
Anyhow, Utley, welcome to the site, and best of luck!!

Jord is a very solid capper, and his attitude is refreshing. I always look at his plays to see who he is on. Keep up the good work, Jord! :0074
Agree 100%.
I think Jord does pretty good, but to put out just one capper in a thread I think is off-putting, just my 2 cents worth! My suggestion would be to honor them in their thread when they post their picks to give them some love!
There are several cappers in the MJ Forum that do very well and many that keep pretty accurate records and there are too many to mention to be honest, so if I forget anybody I'm sorry: BadAngel, Handicapper, JMize, Green, Doubletwo, Rubicone, IE, Madjack, KSA, MarksMoney, Money, HappyHippo, THUNDER, FullCourtPress, UGA, Senor, Hashish, Jawaiian, RIQ, NBAKID, , Titus, CappinGuru, LetsMakeMoney, Mully, Volfan, KCWolf, Bulldog, man I know I am missing a few -
Cappers can get hot and stay hot or consistent, some can have a few good weeks then tank it, etc, it's called gambling and to be a consistent capper you have to stay true to what has worked for you and you have to keep up with the times and the changes, as far as coaches for any pro or college team, personnel changes as far as talent goes on a team, injuries, travel schedules, how the teams are doing, are they on a hot streak or downward spiral, some teams and some cappers start out and finish the same way each season, some trends are fantastic to use, but if you just follow the forum threads and see who is doing well and keep track of them daily, weekly, monthly, etc, my suggestion is to follow them a full season and keep track of how they did and if they can keep track of their records as well, that only helps with the credence of their capping ability!!
Many do this for a hobby, some do it to make it as a business and some just throw crap on the wall and hope it sticks, I haven't found many of the latter - but hopefully you get my jist.
Great job to all the forum cappers who diligently come here and post and take the guff they get and the kudos when they do well!!
Later taters!!

Disagree 100%.
I have played cards with guys for years, couldn't tell u even close what their record is. Yet, I know exactly how good they are.
People can do whatever research works for THEM.
I don't play cards!! :mj07:
I was only talking about capping in a baseball thread.
GL Jord!! :0008
