If he was peddling coaching or something, I didn't see any real solicitation/call to action.

That's exactly what Thremp said I was doing years ago just posting random spots I like for my own personal amusement when again at no point was I telling people to tail me or attempting to charge for services or whatever.

Poogs hasn't asked anyone for money in any capacity, didn't start his own well thread, answered people's questions on his own time and literally the only benefit he's got out of it is a few eyes on his blog, which doesn't cost anyone any money to look at and if you think it sucks then just don't read it.

lvr, because you personally can't fathom engaging with a community without 'getting something out of it' because of your right wing 'f you I got mine' attitude to life (i'm just assuming you're a fringe right winger but seems likely due to your blah blah libs comments), you can't imagine anyone else wouldn't be just like you and have some 'alternative agenda' to benefit financially or otherwise from all your interactions with people

It's sad and a bit ridiculous at no point has he tried to 'tout' in any way shape or form he's posting spots he likes most of which are random PPH arbs not available to the general public and he's not trying to charge money for his services or anything so why don't you **** off out of the thread with your cancer and go back to low content or something

how is the dodge ram holding up? i'm thinking about selling my car because it's impossible to find a place to charge it without a line and my "luxury" condo doesn't have charging stations. it's extremely inconvenient

is it hard to back into a parking spot? that's my only worry and has me leaning towards a prius

Not a pickup truck driver but even though these large trucks are somewhat easy or at least not as nearly difficult as one would assume to reverse park. There higher off the ground so you get a better view, plus well sized mirrors. Additionally modern trucks have good handling and reverse cams are almost standard. I’d say easier to park than an older model Kia hatchback or something.

Swoop,

Poogs was doing this thread and his blog to try to drum up PPH accounts. He's not just doing this without trying to get something out of it as you claim. He's also one of the last people here I'd advise someone to share a good PPH out with. There are dozens of more technically proficient bettors, none of whom have any history of slowpays/attempted partial pays. That said, banning him with no explanation seems a bit off.

Imagine living in a part of the U.S. Where the majority think like Ivr.
Scary thought. Urgghh, I'm getting shivers.

Oh wait! Poogs is banned?
Didn't he once say , or text rather, to Ivr, and I quote, "I'm finding it hard to stick up for you." . I guess because poogs is also pro Trump.
Probably the true reason he got banned. Bad judgment.
Just kidding!!

By the way. I'm also using this opportunity to get an opinion poll of what we should write on TomG's gravestone. I rather like, "A leader of men". TOM, we haven't heard from you in a while. If you're still among us, utter a few syllables of reassurance that you're ok.
I'm sure nobody would miss me, but we miss you.

Good pull but they are a private Bookmaker.

You are deranged. Seriously.

Find one instance in my entire decades long posting history or anywhere on my blog where I’ve even entertained the idea of “going tout.” All I do is bet on things that aren’t widely available. I can prob show dozens of times where I’ve explicitly spoken negative about touts and say to everyone don’t pay for picks, ever. And I would love to hear the argument how me getting accounts out of it is somehow bad?


Rigs: I totaled the original Ram but i absolutely loved that truck. I replaced it with another newer Ram which I like but not as much as the old one. Not sure what I’ll get for my next vehicle. That’s funny you mention parking, I remember you asking the same thing a long time ago. Big pick ups can be hard to move around small parking lots but you can do it. ESP with back up cameras. Backing in is the way to go usually.

I once told a big table at a wedding that I was a pro gambler and the men and women both had strong, fully unanimous reactions... in opposite directions of course. I've definitely had the same experience as you.

To be fair to the girls, 90% of people who say (or think) they're pro gamblers are just degens.

Edit - Phenomenal thread btw. Thank you.

Hey swoop don’t let LVRs awfulness spoil your idea of all “right wingers.” Plenty of us are team players, mage be even more so. Just like the looters don’t represent the left, the LVRs of the world do not represent the right. Free markets and free collaboration.

Btw it’s been some time now and I’m very clearly not going tout, not was it ever even in my wildest imagination. So I’ll expect my apology anytime soon lvr.

Ivr started a thread on the politics forum. About some childish subject of how unfair and nasty conservatives are treated. I think that's what it was about.
Only thing I know for sure is, he completely embarrassed himself. He wasn't able to even put two sentences together. After exposing himself to have the equivalent of a high school drop out intelligence, and being completely ridiculed by just about everybody, I guess that's when he decided to self ban.
I think it was for the best to put him out of his misery. A mercy kill, so to speak.


Edit: lol, omg, what a disaster that thread was.
Title, "why does it need to be law to do something?" .
It will go down as another classic in the annals of 2+2.
Congrats Ivr!

Im pretty good at it tbh...a lot of SB skills transfer nicely actually. Just being able to use excel is huge. I also think about problems as if I were making a model for it. For instance I wanted to know about the differences between drivers; are they all roughly the same or maybe there is a huge skill gap? Whats the difference between the best and worst driver? I think about what metrics would be important if I was betting...things like tons delivered per hour, or ideally money made per hour, etc. That kind of thinking, the kind that leads to successful models (if prop models) transfers very nicely into the business world IMO.

I never decided to 'move on' from betting but a year long break even stretch coupled with losing a ton of accounts all at once on top of it being time to **** or get off the pot with the business, it kinda just happened. At one point I actually had 0 accounts for the first time since probably 2008ish.

Then I realized I absolutely need it, even just a little bit. I just love advantage gambling. So I made a reddit AMA and got a couple accounts from it which got the juices flowing again a little. I reached out to an old partner who set me up with a few accounts off the bat, plus one other local guy and now I have more than a couple accounts and bet daily, just about. I think keeping it as a serious hobby is the best way to go. Unless youre a crusher, the life style isnt worth it IMO. Youre alone an insane amount of time. I remember thinking when I was full time, if I died in my condo literally no one would know for a while. Maybe its just me but thats how I felt.
Hello,
could pls share the link of the Reddit AMA pls?

Thanks

So you got an account from a stranger and deposited 5k. Not a good move my friend. Not good at all. First off, lets not throw PPH's under the bus when this doesnt sound like a PPH book at all. At least not that Ive seen. Ive never seen or heard of PPHs that even take deposits. Did you actually deposit with a credit card or paypal or something? Or did you just have to post up and still used credit?

Pretty basic rules here; never deposit. Ever. Posting up is different (even that I wouldnt do), but I wouldnt deposit onto any site that wasnt a legit offshore one. Depositing into an account you got from a twitter-stranger in a different country is like another level of bad idea. Then depositing 5k on your first deposit! Thats 3 levels of bad.

But then you let it get to 13k?? Thats the final level of bad. It sounds like you just got scammed - I wouldnt lump PPH's in with this.

Give me some more info...did he give you a reason for not paying or did he just vanish? How long were you there for? I assume you never settled anything, correct? The more info the better. Youre prob out of luck but I have had actually decent success in the past in negotiating a stiff and getting some percentage or SOMETHING out of a stiff

Hello,
if you advice to not deposit on PPH account how do you get money there?

Thanks

Perhaps you should reread Ganchrow's posts on the subject:

https://www.sportsbookreview.com/for...on-part-i.html

https://www.sportsbookreview.com/for...n-part-ii.html

Part 3 never materialized but if you can calculate EG, you can figure out whether a hedge is +EG for your bankroll or not or what size hedge optimizes EG. Someone not mathematically inclined could even do it via trial and error with SBR's Kelly calculator.

Note that none of this has anything to do with partial arbs increasing effective odds on a bet.
yo mate,
