    Do you normally put more on his higher star plays, or play them all the same amount?

    I must say, I just did a little research and all of his college plays fall under the "Public % vs. Line Movement" plays. Meaning, the public is on the opponent of each of these teams, yet the line has moved in the direction to show more money or possibly sharp money on PSU, Cal and Arkansas. After seeing what I've seen the last few weeks in CBB, I have to like this....although laying all that Chalk is scaring me.

    After getting burned once too many times, I just keep it equal units.

    Root or someone who works for him contacted SBR and requested stars no longer be posted.

    Of course, Millionaire, Billionaire, Legend imply the star rankings, but I'm going by the letter of what I was told.


    I know it's just more red tape and another annoyance when posting plays, but SBR wants to protect itself regarding copyright (hence the thread by Willie Bee about no longer posting writeups).

    I'm sure the impetus was touts contacting SBR.

    By the way, I was never formally introduced, but I was asked on Tuesday night to help moderate the Service Plays forum, so here I am.

    If you need something edited, merged, moved, or deleted regarding this forum, let me know.

    Seriously? Why are the stay plays significant to them? I like to see what his millionaire and billionaire plays are, damnit! Can we come up with a code? I think that would be a good idea. Besides, Root's actual site doesn't use the star method. They actually name out "Millionaire, Billionaire, No Limit" etc. So I'm wondering if that letter wasnt from the other site that bought out Root and uses the star method...?? Hmmm...

    Guess it doesn't matter since I flat bet him, but I usually just look at Millionaire plays on up.

    I suppose someone could post the star scale separately from the selections?

    Use letters... 1=A etc... Could just be semantics but that's up to yisman.

    Congrats yisman!

    Guys, use your heads. legend is 3, mill 4, bill 6, no limit 7! I play them all equal though as he's just as likely to miss a 7* as a 3*

    Damn, Wayne. Don't start going to crap now with your CBB plays, man! UF looks like a win vs Arkansas and I'm not sure about laying 11 with Cal.

    plenty of time for the gators to lose this game, especially on the road. Personally, I'm on the gators, but i won't be feeling good about it for a while.

    The 1st half shooting percentages make me think UF wins this game. They shot like junk in the 1st Half and were still up by 2 points.

    he was 2-2 split units yesterday. Horrible today 1-4 -12 units. Has missed no limit 2 in a row. I know it's hard to have any faith in him but now is when you hammer it. That's just how he has been doing lately. I was smart enough last time to not follow after he missed the first tip off. got me for 2 this time & then hit his late & I didn't play. Something looked funny about that Penn ST. anyway. They shouldn't have been laying more than 3. But that's usually the ones that cover?!?!?!

    So Cal actually hit?! That is the ONE f*cking game I didn't play. I couldn't lay 11 points after seeing Wayne go 0-3. That figures. This man NEEDS to save me this weekend. That is two nice losing nights in a row for me and I'm in the hole a good number.

    Well if 3-5 = "Totally Failed" in the sports World, then I will stay with him for life! To me, 'totally failed' is like an 0-7 run or even just an 0-5 run, I guess. Yeah, 3-5 sucks but the man will not win every single day.
