no logos tonight? that is what made your thread unique. Everyone that does this every day has losing streaks just can't let it shake your confidence and decision making.
G/L on your plays Selective. Usually a good idea to fade if someone is incredibly hot like 80% for a sustained period. If you have lost for the past couple of days you are probally due for a winning day.

Good luck. Like Mil, Clev, TB, Col, and no opinons on the rest. Get em back today. :103631605

Gotta stop taking these high favorites. Play them on the RL or parlay them together to a get a plus return.

Well a nice turn-around day, hopefully I can continue the ascending tomorrow.

All those teams won on the RL too. Any juice over -150 I lay the RL.

SelectiveAscent · Aug 30, 2008

I bet all favorites on the RL, it is just that I think the moneyline is a more accurate scale of my ability to pick winners, which is what my mindset was in creating my website and posting here to keep track of.

If thats the case Selectiveascent then you might end up with a GREAT RECORD on your site, but not alot to show UNIT wise. A great capper is defined by how much he wins, not his record.

Yes, I understand, that it is a dumb way to keep my record, now that I look back at it, I should have made the table so it read:

"TEAM...ML...RL"

and I would mark the ML with a W/L and RL with a W/L and +/- units for each, just to see what of a gain RL does, or doesn't do in 1-run wins.

There is only 1 month of the season left, that will be my plan for the postseason, and next season.
