If You Followed A Successful Bettor But Later Found Out He Didn't Even Bet Real Money, Would It Matter?

[HacheMan]

I have read many posts through the years of some posters poking fun at or making claims that other particular posters here & there "Doesn't even put real money on his bets".

I'm sure people are skeptical when & if they find out or suspect someone doesn't bet real money on their posted plays because they believe the wagers may not be taken as serious, or not much effort or though put into them when capping or making a final decision. This is understandable.

But, does it really matter if a person can pick winners over the long-haul?

It doesnt matter to me. A guy who can hit is a guy who can hit.

And chasing with crazy units to get back in the + is annoying real money or not.

 

[louisvillekid]

hell no. Don't a lot of people follow that Dr. Bob guy , i don't think he bets is plays.

 

[bucsfan67]

no, i prefer a guy that studies what he does, and tries, rather than a rich guy who can afford to throw hundreds at each game and not really sweat whether they win or not

If the plays win , I don't give a shit if I find out they are from a monkey betting bananas ...

Best Handicapper i ever knew (RIP) told me once..."If you pass by a homeless guy everyday and he gives you a winner what should you do ?? Bet It!!!!!! "

 

[Jack Herer]

If he´s a succesfull capper and wins on a regular basis, why wouldn´t he bet? At least small amounts. Doesn´t make sense to me.

Nothing much to argue with in the above post

Hope I can get to that point where you don't have to sweat like James Caan in the movie "THE GAMBLER"

Jeeeez........I will make a wager that I can dig up a thread or 2 that they have started well after I have as well, just if you guys are insinuating something. :think2:

There's MILLIONS of threads between forums & most of us know we run into subjects that have already been brought up in the past by simply not knowing.......

It's all good. Wil told me it still counts for your quota.

You mean the peeps betting 10000 units on a play was a lie? hno:

Wouldn't matter to me, just keep picking winners. Although it might be hard to take stock advice from a "broke" broker. @)

I follow one person, and I know he bets real money. Me!
