I now understand why some people do not last very long on the RX. Instead of hoping someone can win a large number of plays, you guys seem to want people to fail? Wouldn't it be good for all of us if one, two or twenty cappers on this site could hit 65%, 70% or 75% of their plays?
If tomorrow comes and I do hit 10 out of the 14 plays, you guys will say (whether you posted it here or not), "Well that is only one day and 14 plays. You can't keep up that pace over the long haul." But if I hit on 7 or 8 of the plays you will come out with "See I told you couldn't win at that rate!" There will be no mention of it only being one day.
It is interesting that there was nothing in your posts about my record from yesterday. If you're only in this thread to glout when I miss a play then save us both some time and use your own thread. If you are here to use my picks to help, then I wish you all the best. Good Luck!

Herein lies the problem. Most people on here know for a fact that hitting 70% is absolutely and completely impossible, over the long haul. And, you came in here indicating that you were able to do just that.
It's not that people don't want you to succeed, it's simply that you aren't the first, and probably won't be the last, to come in here in the manner that you did. Now, having said that, and, despite your claims, if you were to come in here and win consistently (even at a more realistic rate of 55% to 60%, which IS attainable, you would earn the respect of everyone in here.
Just keep plugging away, and, like I said, if you win consistently, your winning will speak for itself. If you lose, after having made the claims that you did, you will be just another in the long line of posters who "bite the dust."

The main discrepency I have with you guys is that I never said what I could or would do in the future. If you will look at the first post I made, I stated that I have only been capping hoops for this season and that my record to date was xxxxx. Never have I stated that I would win another play much less a certain percentage. And as far as the record I posted in my first post, that is an accurate record to that point in the season. I can never prove that to your satisfaction via this forum just as you cannot prove it is not correct. I should have included the disclaimer used with other investments, "Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results".
If my plays interest you and can help you than great. If not, then simply don't open this thread. Good Luck!

Now you know that hitting more than 70% over the long haul, and, in fact, hitting more than 60% over the long haul, is impossible. Keep your head up and keep capping, but, don't delude yourself and over extend your bankroll in the hopes that you will maintain a winning percentage like the one you indicated that you had, because, if, by chance, that is true, you are sure to come back down to earth and, your bankroll is going to come crashing down with your win percentage.
Good luck.
