Hate to break it to you but before the contest started I was 14-2 my last 16 plays and you can look it up on this very board. I have not liked many plays this week. Also, I was on many small to medium favorites during my run.

This is funny. No plays after daily plays of month, year, lifetime, decade mostly on the highest chalk on the board and here only one chalk play the entire week. Kind of defeated the whole purpose of seeing if a high chalk player could match against a more selective player. This contest got boring and lost steam by the second day.

Interesting point though that the high chalk player doesn't follow that same path when in a contest to be taken more seriously than the attention seeking games of whatever that didn't really matter. Seems to confirm the point that in baseball, it's all about units won and not the W-L record.

I bet Boston at -230 on Wednesday. They won easily.

I declare both 3 seconds and Harvey Dent be banned from Madjacks for 4 months based on this poor contest.

3 Seconds was out to prove that Harvey Dent can't win long term betting big favorites. What did Harvey do? He didn't bet any team favored by more than -150 and he started betting O/U's. It defeats the point. It's like watching a boxer who refuses to box.

3 Seconds, you are down by 134 points. Save yourself the embarrassment and just forfeit. Throw in the towel. At the rate that you're going (6 to 10 games a day), Harvey will win the contest by not playing anymore games. Again, that defeats the purpose of the contest.

Mod needs to shut down this thread.

Boundbook I agree with what you're saying but I have not liked that many plays this week. The one big juice play I liked was Boston -230 over Texas and they won easily. Just nothing has really stuck out at me.

Yea true pt, BUT Harvey really was banking units with the high juice plays... He won enough to make money. These little plays/and dog plays HAVE LOST HIM MONEY. Not sure why he didnt believe in what he was doing; it really was working. Big juice never has to be paid unless it loses. And he was selective enough to cover the units lost with all the wins.... I did think this would be more exciting then its been.

Harvey, my advice is to do what you do and let everyone else do what they do.... Its really surprising people are giving you shit for winning.... I hate to see if you were losing!!!!!

Good luck and keep plugging.

Can we just end all this and have Harvey challenge Madjack to a contest.......let's say.....oh $500. Then when Jack wins, we'll see if Harvey pays or runs. Oh wait......I must have hit my head or something.....deja vu?

Some very unlucky loses this week so far. White Sox just piss that win away.

With Harvey playin his tactic of simply trying not to lose his money instead of winning anything w/ these GOC $20 bets :mj07: I am going to be in trouble here unless I catch a hot streak. Maybe I should just wager $1 a game.

I will never use those tactics...I dont care if it costs me.
