I have known this guy in a sports forum (not this one) in early 2009.
We started talking about capping methods, betting systems, we changed emails.
He told me he has a good system which never had a losing month since 2005... of course I haven't believed him. He started sending me those picks, always 3 picks if he had plays on some days.
I never bet myself those picks but followed with interest, and to my surprise in more than 2 years he never had a losing month! So he told me the truth!
I asked him to reveal his selection method, but he never did, just his money management. That was obvious anyways: he always wanted to win 2 of 3 plays to make a profit, and after losing days he increased the wager sizes.
In October 2011 the emails suddenly stopped from him. Because this happened before that he had no plays for even 4-5 days in row, I did not pay much attention. But after the 7th day I emailed him, and because I got no reply, the next day I emailed him again. Still no reply...
Then I thought I'll call him, I remembered once he emailed me his cell number, but we never talked on the phone. Took me a while to find his number buried in an older email, but I was glad I found it.
So I called him the next day.
There was his wife who picked up his cell.
To my shock, I found out that he had an accident, was in a hospital after, and he died... his funeral was already 3 days ago...
A drunken driver run the red light and run into his car.
He was only 56.
This thread is in his memory.
He called his picks "slingshots", and so I will call them the same.
RIP Dave!

Because he never told me his selection criteria, I had just some guesses, and this is what I will try to do in this thread too.
In conclusion these plays are wildly on the experimental side... and I do not have any money on these plays.
I have no idea even if i will have the time and self discipline to run it long enough, because I'm very busy with too much other stuff.
But I will try!

The % the picks begin with are the % from the starting bankroll I want to win, if the picks are winners.
