JJ is not who he appears to be. Don't let JJ's cover fool you- he posts a lot of crazy stuff to throw people off.
A few years ago, JJ did some real damage to books on the races. Like a skillful Blackjack player, he hid his talents with what looked like a progressive betting scheme. If you want to look like a chump, use a progressive betting system as camouflage. The books bought it, and he beat numerous smaller books out of a large figure over a 4-month period. The scary thing is he did this on smaller races with numerous small bets. Not just horses, but dogs and harness racing. He didn't touch the Derby or Preakness (at least not under his own name).
JJ's genius didn't come out until you realized what he did. He targeted small books that didn't bet into the pool. By looking like a chump, he got the square treatment until it was too late.
He often looks full of crap, but sometimes he's a mad prophet that's deadly accurate.
