My brother and I just rehabbed a fire damaged house in the Mayfair section of Philly where we stand to make a 6 figure profit (we practically stole the house for 10k) and wholesaled another house to the Asians where we got a house under contract for 60k and within 36 hours had a buyer for 135k and I STILL wouldnt make wagers of this magnitude, and I'm as reckless/care-free with money as they come! I sometimes mis-prioritize but I would never put the future of my daughter's education/life at risk. I should just let this stuff slide, but I just can't today. Idk why. I just can't. I want NOTHING MORE than to be proved wrong. A simple screen shot would shut me up entirely, but my gut tells me that won't be coming. Ughhhhh ... feel free Steve or the mods to take this post down. I just feel that it has to be said.
I quit posting here for the most part because of it. When every other post is more than I usually bet in a weekend (even if true )I became uninterested in participating.

I don't blame ya one bit, South Beach. He has to know 'the jig is up'. When his fictional bets DO hit, there's nary a morsel of congratulatory posts, where-as if you or gamlin/casp would connect on similar play that would result in a FRACTION of his payoffs, this board would LIGHT UP with posts about how great the hit was. Anybody with a shred of a brain knows this to be true. I used to be combative by nature, product of growing up with a sharp older brother that would always put us to the test, but as the years have went bye I've been able to put away my 'rabbit ears' and let stuff just roll right off of me. This, however, grinds my gears to no end. I truly believe it stems from the fact that we ALL know he's a sharp guy and has one of the better opinions on the board, but when he tries to pull the wool over our eyes in the selection room, it just steams me up. I hope whatever is the root of this problem gets rectified. Hell, I hope that I'm proven wrong and IM the one that's made out to look like the idiot, but every morsel of my functioning brain tells me we're being duped.

Best of luck in all your wagers South Beach, and I hope you decide to start posting your plays here again bc you wager on different tracks than I do (the Arlingtons of the world) and I usually liked to either piggy-back some of your plays and/or would watch those races with a rooting interest. Hope to see you start back up!

I disagree . I personally do not think he is a sharp guy. I don't think his opinion is very good. Other than Arrogate, he really hasn't won much. When he was doing that contest with the other fake betting fraud, it was autofade city and I had a nice little run, because they both stunk. I don't know why you guys think his opinion is any good with the ridiculousness of his play. Realistically, who spends 4 or 5 hundred in the pick 4 or 5 and have the 2 faves in th first end? What could it possibly pay ? He'll get alive in some 2 by 2 double play and then be rolling out the pick threes off the hoss' he's alive with for a score. I don't know about you guys, but if I have a $20 double going that's paying a cnote, I'll be happy enough winning the gnote without betting $300 more off of him too. Why the crazy bets is the mystery. Who is he trying to impress?

Can't answer your last question, for I have zero clue, but the kid obviously has a prowess for picking winners in some tough spots. He's made that evidently clear. His opinion has gotten infinitely better since his first handle here at DT, there's absolutely no denying that. I think that's partially the reason why this fraudulent bet crap is so tough to swallow. Must be a mental health issue or something that I don't fully understand, an issue that I hope he seeks help for and overcomes.
