this thread is absolutely UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! do you guys want CK to stop posting? is that what you want? as he said he DOESNT make money off his picks and has NO obligation to post his units daily. Would it be a nice bonus? sure, but please - why are you going on and on with this? go back thru his threads and count up his f'ing units and come up with a total if you want to know so badly. but realize this kind of crap causes people to stop posting plays, and CK is as good as they come.
Jesus, calm down carolinakid...this thread wasn't directed at you or anyone else specifically. Honestly, I saw some random poster post his plays and record last night, and following an impressive record was a play laying like -165 or something...which made me think, "This guy's record is great, but if all his losses are at -165, is it really that impressive?" So then I decided to pose the question to the forum.
Don't act so defensively. I wasn't coming after you or anyone else. I was asking an honest, legitimate question. It was directed at EVERYONE who does this, not just you. So calm down.
But since you're here, let me ask you a question. If a poster is 100-50, all documented, but all 50 of his losses were at -200 or higher, don't you think that the 100-50 record would be deceiving? Or do you disagree?
Everyone does things their own way. People post 50 unit plays, completely disregarding the fact that a unit should, theoretically, be worth 1-2% of one's bankroll. But at least if it's a sport other than baseball, the juice is going to pretty much be anywhere from +100 to -120, generally speaking, so only keeping a record isn't as big a deal. But for baseball specifically, the juice is just as important as the play itself. So it's confusing as to why people only keep track of a record, which is why I was asking the question.
I wasn't criticizing CK's capping ability or singling him out. The end.

thanks Stickbit and Skins i ageed the laying of huge chalk and posting crazy numbers etc.imo what kind of streak winning or losing a poster is on is better than amount of units.again we have our ways of playing the games.i posted my units won a few days ago when chop ask me and heck i lost 3 days in a row after i did.i know it may be stupid but if it not broke dont fix it for me here.if that not good enough i will just stop posting here as to not cause any problems .bol always.......ck
