In a thread titled "at what point is a successful gambler in their gambling prime?

I would say 22 for me.


Then this.

Navy +3 (2 Units)(loss)
S. Florida -11 (2 Units) (WINNER)
Boise St. +3.5 (1 Unit) (WINNER)
Florida St. -5.5 (2 Units) (WINNER)
California -9.5 (2 Units) (loss)
Rutgers -6.5 (1 Unit)(loss)
Missouri -12.5 (2 Units) (loss)
Nevada -2 (3 Units) (loss)
Air Force +4 (2 Units) (loss)
Pittsburgh +2 (2 Units) (loss)
Georgia Tech -4 (2 Units)(loss)
Iowa -3 (2 Units) (WINNER)

4-8-0 -10.6 Units

Good Luck,
Randy

Followed by losers on Penn State and Cincy. 4-10 -15 Units

Then we get this gem

Guys, it is apparent my bowl plays are simply unacceptable. It definitly is a different animal, and I will learn from my mistakes. I accept this. To any of you actually hoping I lose, I feel sorry for you. To everyone else, I apologize for the lack of productivity for the Bowls. I will have the BCS Title game up in a few days. Hopefully, I can finish with a Win.

Good Luck to each and every one of you guys with your plays.

Randy

Damn good thing he doesn't break his laptop NOW!


Hell, I think he got enough money for 50 laptops...I just hope he really didn't bet his own bowl plays. He really did get arrogant at the end...with all that "match that" and "no one has ever done what I have done." He said he believed in Karma....well....I really believe Karma found him. Don't let that happen to you PG in the bowl contest...cuz I'm on your tail! Lol...fully expecting you to win...just like to rib you a little.

3-5-0 -6.0 Units

Not having a good bowl season thus far, but only down 6 Units. There will be ups and downs as we are all aware of. Yes, even I can hit a rough patch. Tread lightly until I pick it up again, because things will catch back on and I will start winning again. As long as the winning streaks always outmatch the losing ones and money management is used, there will be no problems.

Overall: (86-28-4)(76%)(+113.6 Units)

Only lost 1/20th of the profit I made over the season. Nothing to be all huffy and puffy about if you ask me. This is why I stress money management. For small bumps in the road like these.

Good Luck on any other plays you may have tonight fellas,
Randy



This is the little gem I thought you were talking about. Success has gotten to his head. To be fair, hard not to when you are young and go on a great run and everyone starts telling you how fantastic you are.

Things like this are good in the long run though, maybe he will learn some humility.

The over 1,000 post crowd generally knows better, the under 1,000 post crowd tends to be reactionary and way to quick to blow loads on everyone and everything.

Every time I see that record though, I cringe because it included plays he said "didn't make the cut" to be official plays ....then when they went 8-2 or better, he included them in his record two weeks later after he said he didn't play them. Shady. Still impressive record but definitely inflated. Hopefully he will learn some humility like you said. If he does, he will probably be fine next year.

Yes.. After they went 8-2..they were called opinions...and later included in the record. Just look at the NCAAF record between weeks 5 and 7. Funny thing is, I have brought this up before and no one seems to care, so I guess I shouldn't either.

I like how Randizzle wasn't having a good year in the NFL so he just gave up. Four plays in week 12 with lots of disclaimers and then only one play in week 13. :lolBIG:

Wth? Wake him up and let him ask me? :lol:


But he looks so cute when he's sleeping. I'm sure he'll find you later tonight or tomorrow. Actually I'm trying to get him to scoop your bowl plays for me. hahaha!......seriously, it's not a big deal. We just need you to settle a bet.
