I made a long term winning play, yours sucked.

I suggest you take MF up on his offer.

I know what you mean by long term based on the price you got if it lost is less so it keeps you in the game longer BUT, you both won. They both paid the same regardless if yours was at -115 and Pavy's was at -150. You both got back the same on your money. It only makes a difference had you lost.

This is what I said 4 pages ago, math guys calculate losing into the equation and cappers don't want to think about losing. That is not a slam on math guys, it's not an argument that cappers are better than math guys it's just the perception that each have to approach their craft at.

It doesn't matter for me either way cause I do nothing but pick losers so my capping doesn't work and learning the math will be of little use either cause I'll be bust before it turns around.

If I bet $100 on a -150, how much money do I win? How about $100 on a -115?

$100 on both?
 
How? I explain to you what the guy said he does and that is running in circles? I tell you I understand what you are saying but it doesn't apply if you are betting to win not risking and that is running in circles? Focker as asked -115 wins more, but betting to win they both pay equally. How is that running in circles?

I think you figured out.

The sharp play is always to bet TO WIN whatever you want to win.

When you lose you don't lose the extra juice because you bettered to win!!

It's about time you figured this out.
 
Pavy
Why does it matter to you at what price I won my bet? This is not a dick measuring contest. I risked $400 on my square play and you risked $6000 on your sharp play. But guess what if the play lost you would have been in the red for 6K whereas me would have been in the red for 400.

Wally I can't believe I have to explain this to you....but....


If Pavy lost this play he would've been in the red for 400. On betting a -140 play.

That's not betting to win. That a wager amt.

It doesn't make a difference either way, as if you are betting to win, you still have to put up more to win your desired amt on a -140 than a -115.

Christ Wally when I start talking math to educate you, that's not a good sign at all.

Bread, I said that. I said if you lose then all bets are off but if they both won and if Pavy bets to win and he bets 560 to win 400 it didn't hurt him cause he won. If Durito bet 6900 to win 6000 it didn't hurt him cause he won.

If Pavy had risked 400 to win 280 then Durito did far better based on the -115 line he got.
