key there might be, if you have no mexican family members, to find some non-degens that would still stop and pick a penny up off the street, no? gotta be some people that can 'speak the language', but also would accept pesos for their work...

also interested in the transition from sigs being called out for not quite being the genius that his reputation would portray, to sigs wondering out loud how to cash a series of LV tickets. perhaps more specifically, the posting of the LV ticket/certified mail and the timing of both...

i'm sure skype has gotten to the bottom of this, alas, i am still on the bottom, eating up all the leftovers...

Do you consider using multiple sports book accounts and runners to be shadey? Heard Cantor had to bar Money May for too much sharp action. He's looking for action, probably give you .80 on the dollar for those tix, just to ball.

Why do math guys give sports gamblers with traditional approaches a bad name? It is not like we didn't have perfect math SAT scores and took honors math courses at U of Chicago.

Hi guys, can anyone tell me the result of the Singhtarua FC vs Daegu FC (I believe its soccer from Thailand) match on Feb 3? This match get cancelled or something?
02-04-2014 , 08:09 AM
Yes, cancelled.

It was scheduled to be an international club friendly. The Korean team Daegu FC didn't come due to there being a snap election that was also being boycotted amiss protests and violence in Bangkok not far from the stadium. They were replaced last minute by a nearby third tier team Nonthaburi FC. Quite the different match than fans expected.

which is harder: sport betting VS poker,


poker is hard, I think,
02-04-2014 , 09:52 AM
i wd say poker!!!
02-04-2014 , 09:53 AM
I see thank you for the response, so was this considered a forfeit by the other team?
02-04-2014 , 10:18 AM
Poker is way harder. However, an inspired parlay might bring you a sum of money which would take days to grind at poker. There's variance in both of them. The greatest difference is that in betting you depend on a team/player, whether in poker it's all you, your call, your fold.
Which ever you're going to take, you'll need iron discipline to overcome them, and a logical thinking combined with inspired choices.
BOL anyway you choose to go!

No, it is just considered cancelled. It is just an exhibition match so no need to reschedule and no standings, records or anything like that involved. I'm sort of surprised there was even betting on it.

So why are so many professional poker players so stupid?
02-04-2014 , 12:34 PM
They're focused on one thing, the rest of them is useless. Sport bettors are way more relaxed and open-minded. Imo, of course.

Poker is child like easy if you are seriously proficient at betting sports. The only time poker gets hard is when you play the true high stakes hu guys. Their incredibly precise range analysis and fluid adjustments have cost me more than one $5k bi in my life.

There are some brilliant people in poker also, Barry G, Mr. Sklansky, Brian Rast, Michael Binger, Galfond, and Vanessa Selbst to name a few top level thinkers.

I can never thank Barry G enough for taking me under his wing over a decade ago and giving me the confidence, encouragement, and incredibly good life advice in a time of need. Even though he only knew me as a stranger and most of society was cold shouldering me. Class Man.

Can anyone here give me any advice on the best online books for CBB totals? Which site has the most extensive amount of totals available? I'm a US based player. 5dimes just isn't cutting it for me anymore.

Question for the serious math peeps: If you are mostly honest and would never want to do such a thing, do you still consider the easy money you could (as a last resort should you get desperate) earn from scamming naive people (for example: poker players) as part of your bankroll or not?

If you would never do it, how could it be considered an asset?

I am to confident in my abilities, honest, and too successful to scam people. Truly successful gamblers have multiple investors seeking them out wanting to team up with their action. I am too intellectually arrogant to ask for a stake and smart enough to build my bankroll when necessary. When Nascar comes around people come to me, and thankfully I am already aligned with a good crew for many years.

Scamming people is unethical and illegal. I have been scammed no less than 4 times in the past year for thousands of dollars and every time I am victimized I pat myself on the back for accepting it graciously and never contributing to the world of scamming.

Scamming and gambling are unfortunately intertwined. Wherever money is being moved a scum bag is closely watching looking for an opportunity.

I have witnessed many marginally educated shady gamblers in Rosarito who are definitely looking for a free roll. Even some of the established players bounce around with stakers which should raise a big red flag. I have never accepted a stake nor ever will(the Barry G in me).

One guy in Rosarito even suggested I follow his sports picks, which made me laugh my ass off. That is the equivalent of Linus off of Peanuts teaching the world's best Horowitz or Thelonious Monk the piano, ain't happening.

I actually get a kick out of meeting people here who simultaneously want my money and give me gambling advice. Reminds me of listening to Tood Bruson "humblebragging" constantly years ago at the stud h/l table about the same thing.

+1 Smart man, wish I had read your response before typing my long winded one, easier to type "+1."

if prop is scamming people, then i may have to re-think this whole "living" thing.

Pretty nice. Are you going to run another NCAAB pool? I recall 4k limits and some good competitive picking. I would really enjoy participating in something like that, despite my relative lack of NCAAB knowledge.

I've never run a pool before on here, but thanks for reminding me that I left something out of the equation:

+ (Estimated equity in pools run/escrowed by Galen Hall *.666)
