    Default Misleading lines boost touts' records

    I like how any tout can give out his play as so-and-so (-2.5) which is obviously sweet since a FG covers when NO ONE is able to get the game at anything better than (-3). Then he can claim he won in a 44-41 game when the rest of the planet is pushing. With that said, I'm releasing my 1,000,000 dime play: Green Bay (+34) versus the Cardinals this weekend. Now granted, this is extreme. But the 44-41 example ACTUALLY happened last night in the CM-Troy game...and some yahoo gave out his play as CM (-2.5), which one could argue was the line at the time of release. But if I were a capper I would shave a half-point to a full point off all of my selections. In fact, someone has already given out Bama (-3 at -120) when everywhere I look Bama is laying 4 at -110.

    Ok, so you are new to this game and your post is very foolish. First of all, yes, touts skew numbers to boost records. So you are right about that. However, C. Michigan was available at -2.5 and even at -2. Secondly, if you want bama at -3 then buy the points. It's VERY available. The line has been at -3 at -110. I now see it at 3.5 at -110 and you can buy the half point to get it at 3, which is what the -120 indicates.

    Please don't wager on sports. You have a TON to learn. The Bama / Texas line has been available for 31 days now. The CMU line was available for 29 days. Real gamblers jump on lines early and get them before they hit key numbers.

    I bet CMU yesterday morning and -2.5 was widely available then. After Lang released Troy as a 50 dimer I loaded up at -3 which pushed. Touts aren't stupid that's why they always say buy the hook, Lang can confidently say his Troy +3.5 is now a winner. If he released CMU he would claim that as a winner too buying down to -2.5. They are marketers they aren't dumb.

    This is one of the reasons why no tout record can ever be really verified. Add to that the payment by touts to numerous tracking forums to pad their records, almost all of them do this. Add to that the ludicrous money management. If you are following a tout who has a game of the year you will lose long term. There are 4-5 touts who know how to manage money, work hard, actually have good information and our plus EV, the rest are just selling the mindless masses a dream they will never realize.

    look at chris jordan and his blank check game on cm last night. he changed his writeup. in the writeup he said he sees the line at 3.5 and today on his site he copied and pasted it but said he saw the line at 3 just so he could use 3 and say buy that 1/2 point down to get the 5000 unit win. complete joke, at least lang said it was a push. even nover claimed it was a win too. everyone should have said it was a push but no they are all scammers and marketers, fuk em

    new suckers born every minute. sellers don't care whether their clients bankroll increase or decrease.

    educating yourself is important or otherwise you are asking dumb questions and getting ripped by the unknowns.
