I have to ask Harv.....

So why the DRAMATIC change in style?

You go from prior to the contest laying huge chalk day in & day out these GOC, GOD, GOM etc for 85% of your bets, to now in the contest you play that only maybe 5% of your bets?

Was it strictly to say my W/L is great & grab attention & adoration or something? Was it just a schtick in a way? Was it purely coincidence? :SIB Be honest here.

I am not asking this is a negative manner, I seriously just want to know.

Interesting to now we go from $20 to $150 wagers...were you really playing just hoping I would lose my bankroll & you thought you could buy time by passing & wagering a whole $20 a day?

 

[Harvey Dent]

$1000 bankroll is not much to work with that's why I am going low. I am 15-2 on my posted GO's plays and won one yesterday. You can go through $1000 very quickly. My methods are and have worked and that's why you got mad to begin with because I was winning. If I had a normal bankroll to work with I would be aggressive. Obviously betting my normal plays has been better than this contest but $1000 limits a person.

 

[Harvey Dent]

You should never wager more than 5% of your bankroll and probably not more than 2%. Obviously this is fictional money but if you treat it like real money then you have to limit the amount of your plays. But I guess since it's not real it doesn't matter so I will start betting more in this contest.

 

[Harvey Dent]

Again, go back and look at my plays before this contest started. I had some big favorites but had many small to mid-size favorites but nobody remembers those. I still can't believe how fascinated everyone was/is with me while all I was doing was winning.

You had way more than "SOME" large chalk. When I did go back over your wagers your average play was -175. Without looking you had at least 6 -200+ wagers in less than 2 weeks + 2 -300 or more plays. A monkey can play -300 games and come on W/L a positive W/L record. Its about UNITS. You were misleading everyone by ignoring that fact.

I think its funny you think I was 'mad' cause you were winning. A lot of people on MJs are winning & that is great, I have never gotten mad at any of them. Why would I? That's the whole point. Its HOW you were doing & the fact you throw out all these attention grabbing posts & then you refuse to be legit about it.

Its cool. We wont have to worry about it in a week from now when one of us is gone for a long while.

Good Luck.

You, facinating :shrug: The OLYMPICS are facinating !

 

[Harvey Dent]

15-2 my last 17 posted plays not in this contest. I wasn't misleading anyone. I was/am winning and winning big. I am 3-0 on my biggest plays. You can go figure up the units and you will find that I am way ahead. It drove you crazy that I was winning playing the games I did. Sorry you got so defensive.

By the way, I find t funny that would criticize anyone for playing favorites after you chased with two road favorites that everybody and their dog was on yesterday.

Funny thing is neither of them were near -200 or even close to the chalk of your average play.

Thanks for making my case for me! :mj07:

lmao. whatever dude. i have never seen someone so infatuated with another on a message board as you are of me. all kinds of people have noticed it. post after post and thread after thread started about me, then this contest, etc. it must suck to have your life turn into a fascination of someone on the internet that you have no idea who they are nor does anyone else. i could walk by you on the street and you wouldn't know it yet you have let this control you. good luck.

That's all you have left to say for about the 4th time. Its your standard reply when you are made to look like the fraud you are for the umpteenth time.

You can believe whatever you want if it makes you feel important somehow. I wont kill the dream w/ facts.....we all know how you love to ignore them.

Cheers!
