60K is likely considered a very little bit of money to a financier and hotshot options analyst.
After all, 60K may be less than MDawg's average bet per hand.
I'm lost here. What "tout pamphlet" is the academic referring to?
"Tipsters or Gypsters?" was well respected. Playbook kept publishing Wise Guys' records (two plays a week, every week of football) for decades.
And that's not even taking into account that McCusker locked handicappers into Friday/Sat lines, which degraded their records versus choosing when to bet at what lines. The degradation was generally between 1 and 2 if you were with him for years. And he locked you into lines from Leroy's.
You gotta love anonymous academics.
You know, the sad thing is, academics really should not play at being anonymous gamblers with Asian names. I mean, your entire academic career is based on being published with real data and attaching your actual name to what you have published and what you have to say. Being a Jekyll/Hyde by playing at anonymity online is a bizarre path for an academic.
And finally, the fact Billy Walters hired me blows the whole argument out of the water. What, you think one of the wealthiest men in gambling wasn't able to vet me? You think he wasn't able to evaluate me by performance and reputation? You think I fooled Walters? If that's your conclusion, you are truly an idiot.
