Vegas empty for Super Bowl

[redietz]

FOUR versions of the lie:

1) Never went to college, never got his degree



"I have done fine making money without a college degree."



"I have been pretty open about my education and not having the chance to go to college"



"You haters like to call me uneducated because I didn't have the opportunity to go to college as I had planned. " (And, like the lying chameleon that he is, trying hard to put himself in the company of people who also never graduated college, but did well.)



2) Went to college and graduated

"I graduated college in 2014 and moved to Las Vegas and moved in with my brother. "



3) Went to Villanova but attended only 1 year, no degree

But I did well enough to have been accepted at a private catholic university on Philadelphia's exclusive mainline. I only attended for one year.

4) Went to Villanova attended 3 years, dropped out, got his degree online





Bottom line is this pathological liar can't even keep his lies straight. Again.

When laid out like this, kewlJ's bullshit is evident and self-sabotaging.

Pretty clearly, you have either a compulsive liar, a handful of people sharing the "kewlJ" moniker for devious purposes, or both.

If Todd reads this, what is the purpose of allowing this guy to use this forum? What is the upside?

If other people are bullshitting, at least they make an attempt to keep stories straight. KewlJ(s) don't.

You could always kind of tell this with the weird, snide comments regarding whether I was jealous because he allegedly went to Villanova. Villanova ain't all that, but it is expensive. Nobody who went to college in Pennsylvania thinks, "Ooooo, I went to Villanova. I'm special."

KewlJ may be some upscale dude playing at all this, just bullshitting to his heart's content, with some perverse need to post lies all the time. Maybe that's why he's fixated on MDawg. The KewlJ(s) are upscale but threatened by someone more uptown than them.

Continuing to joust with this guy(s) is silly. In a few months, AI will be subbing in for all manner of anonymous forum members.

This post by MDawg buries the whole kewlJ bullshit for good. What could the KewlJ(s) possibly say that argues against them being obvious perverse, forum-addicted liars?

From RED

“
I asked my friend, The Riddler, if he had any final advice for you. He said to pass this along as it's a fine caveat regarding many statistics:

"Life isn't lived under a lamppost at night.
Most of your steps are outside of the light.
If you stay upright (unlike the hurricane kite),
You may find the slickest spots are clearly in sight."”

For those that don’t understand this references Philadelphia with Ben Franklin and the kite and the Eagles fans tearing down lampposts celebrating Sunday.

So the inference is to bet the Sixers at 65-1 to win the East and 100-1 to win the NBA Championship. Thank us later!

The record of the riddler is THE RIDDLE.

Honestly the more the years go by on here the more I think it's all just a hustle of some sort.

[mickeycrimm]

That must be it. He hired me because my opinions don't work.

I was going to do a long, semi-educational response to this nonsense, but why bother? Mickey Crimm has no idea how I do what, and that's probably what annoys him. He is also looking for some distraction from The Riddler doing a mic drop moment after two years wherein The Riddler never had a losing recommendation. Hard to denigrate that, so now we have "Bob Dietz doesn't use statistics. He's an 'opinion guy.'"

Mickey, honestly, do you have any idea how silly that is?

You should stick to what you have some idea about, really. You are a fine machine analyst, from what I can grasp (which is limited). When you render opinions on much of this other stuff, it undercuts your core reputation, your gravitas, your overall look. When you talk about sports betting, you are the proverbial "kite in a hurricane."

It's okay to accept that you don't have any idea about certain stuff, including me. I'm not going to waste my time typing something up regarding my 50-year handicapping history, but the idea that "my opinions" are math deficient is kind of funny. And I could write a book about Mr. Walters' NFL chapters, but that's for another day.

Have a good end-of-life, mickey. Here's my recommendation for you -- try to spend the time you have left interacting with people who are smarter than you. You might learn something.

And finally, I leave you with this:

When using statistics for sports handicapping, language is everything. The starting point should be figuring out if your opinions are full of statistics or if your statistics are full of opinions.

I erased the "riddle" bullshit from your post because I don't have time for quackery. Do you have any idea how silly the riddle bullshit is?

Walters didn't hire you because your NFL opinions don't work. He FIRED YOU because your NFL opinions don't work. It's 110% absolutely clear from the sportsbetting class he gave in his book that opinions don't mean jackshit to him. His strategy is based purely on comprehensive statistics. He never used the word "opinion" anywhere in his Masterclass. Pure ass statistics, red, pure ass statistics. That's what he used. But you are to much of a loser to admit it.

You stated over and over and over and over again that sportsbetting is opinion based. But now you want to backtrack and imply that you use stats. GTFO.

I rendered my opinion that Walters' stats based method beats the bookies. You saying I don't know what I'm talking about is all based on your hurt feelings because you are not in Walters' league. He beats NFL with stats but you couldn't beat the NFL with your opinions. If you did you would be betting the NFL.

You could write a book about Walters' book? Why don't you do that? The problem is we all know you never follow through on your word. But if you did write it....would it be just another book by a quack thinking he knows more than the number one sports bettor in history?

You've got a lot of problems, ditz. You are not in Walters' league. Not even close. So quit trying to baffle everyone with your bullshit. You are embarrassing yourself.

Have a good end-of-life, ditz. Here's my recommendation for you--try studying the Masterclass section of Walters' book so you can beat the NFL like he does. Or do you not have enough smarts do do it?

[redietz]

That must be it. I have failed miserably at that which I do best.

Here's a couple of free insights, mickey. You know, since you've read Mr. Walters' book so carefully.

Why don't you report on which sports Mr. Walters made how much money on? Not how much he bet, but how much he profited.

After you've figured that out, that'll help explain why he laid out his NFL priorities in the book. You see any college football strategies in the book? Any college hoops? Gee, I wonder why not. Mrs. Walters, I take it, didn't raise no fool. LOL.

You need to step back, my friend. All of this stuff is evident on a quick read through, but you evidently missed it. Tsk tsk. As for me, noting this stuff required no deep meditation or careful study. It's obvious.. Now yes, I have a few semi-deep cogitations regarding the book, as Jed Clampett might say and Mr. Walters would approve, but they ain't free. Mrs. Walters and Mrs. Dietz ain't no fools.

Have a good one, Mr. Crimm. Don't take no Montana-minted pennies. Or wooden nickels. Those nickels are next on the hit list.

Trying to baffle with bullshit is not a good look for you. It isn't covering up your shortcomings. You are just continuing to make a fool of yourself.

You continue to say that college football is your expertise. Why is the NFL not part of your expertise? It's plain and simple. Because you tried and failed so gave up on it. Walters didn't fail so continued on with it. His biggest bet was 4.5 million....on one NFL game.

Walters admitted that he couldn't beat baseball so quit trying. He admitted his failure there. But YOU damn sure ain't going to admit that you tried hard but couldn't beat the NFL.

All you ever were to Walters was a hired flunky.

Hey, I resemble that remark.




And this is the problem with mickey crimm. He avoids straight answers. He dances and prances and huffs and puffs.

Anyone who can read knows Mr. Walters mentioned the humungous NFL wager. But did Mr. Walters mention if he's made more money in the NFL than other sports? That, as Shakespeare said, is the question.

Well, actually it isn't. Now, hmmmmm, why would Mr. Walters not mention such a thing? Why not mention, at any point in the book, if he indeed made more money on the NFL than other sports? Verrry interesting.



So mickey avoided the facts to make some argument that has nothing to do with anything. Very dishonest. Boy, I hope mickey and I wind up on the same podcast one of these days.

For the record, I'm well ahead lifetime in the NFL, although the argument can be made that I've made more money on futures than actual single-game wagering. But the NFL is not something you can hang your hat on, and I don't take individual NFL game betting as some great beatable opportunity. It's not. Or, drum roll please, Mr. Walters probably would have compared his overall NFL results to other sports in his book. It's telling that one can get down much more on NFL games than other sports, and STILL Mr. Walters never says he made more on the NFL than on other sports.

But he does write a couple of chapters on how to beat the NFL. Gee, I wonder why.

Mickey, you really should occasionally hang out with people who are smarter than you. But, when you believe you're Leonardo Da AP, I guess you'd have to search the world over to find such a rare creature.

LOL.

I'm sure I've said this before but it bears repeating. EV is what tells you when to bet vs when to not bet. Redietz doesn't understand that. He just picks a side which is what you do on a contest and can do just fine. But picking a side in a contest is not the same as selecting which ones to bet on.

LOL.

NFL lines are definitely going to be sharper and considerably less volume to bet on. This will be countered by presumably higher betting limits.

if Walters listed his respective ROIs on the various sports now that would be interesting.

Of course Redietz mocks the concept of sharp lines even though sharp sports bettors all over know what I'm referring to immediately when I say sharp lines.

Redietz? Not so sharp.

LOL.

You are allways full of shit. Ask a question I'll answer it. But you have no right to denigrate others for not answering questions when YOU have avoided answering a gillion questions.

I've been on 5 podcasts. You've been on zero. You avoid them like the plague. So don't talk shit about appearing on one with me.

It's pretty simple why Walters chose to cover NFL betting in his book. That's where all the public interest was at. Ask the publisher, Simon & Schuster. Adding college football and basketball and NBA would cost a lot of time and money. It would make the book bigger. You know how the publishers are sticklers about time and money. They had Walters write to the public interest.

But it's irrelevant that he didn't cover other sports. What is relevant is that he gave YOU a path to success in the NFL by publishing his system. He's more advanced than YOU and has a higher technology than YOU do. Most people, when they see a better way, switch over to it. But not YOU.

You should be careful about making statements like the NFL not being something one can hang their hat on. Walters hung HIS hat on it. So you should be saying YOU won't hang YOUR hat on it. Walters was betting 5 to 10 NFL games per week. Hell, there's only like 15 games per week. That's finding a lot of edges. How come you can't do that?

[AxelWolf]

Touting hustle.

Claim the Joker/riddler/fiddler made some predictions. If you as the tout like the results you claim that person is you. If not you say they were not your picks. Better yet hope no one figures out the cryptic crap and say nothing, only claims it's not you if someone figures it out.

[accountinquestion]

The weirdest part of all this how he loves to antagonize APs to no end. I guess he can't just put his picks in a thread because that would be too transparent and not a good look if he doesn't run decently. So he does this riddler stuff which obfuscates it all.

But he could do so much better for himself in how he sells himself. How could this site even be a positive? How many people who invest in him also read VCT?

But if his goal is a hustle why start a fight with the guys who are professional gamblers and don't need to be staked?

Or better still, claim to be an "AP" without being able to read, a la Axelwolf above.

LOL. I never said The Riddler was me. The Riddler is a mystery -- he's a criminal. Haven't you ever watched Batman?



The Riddler is a wanted man.




I love the Wolf. Nothing like having The Riddler win seven (or was it eight) consecutive recommendations, and Axel decides it's a scam. C'mon, man. Wait, wait, I get it. If The Riddler had lost, he wouldn't be Bob Dietz. Well, he isn't Bob Dietz. And if the Riddler had won, he'd be Bob Dietz. But he's not. He's The Riddler.

And, here's the rub, as the Bard would say, Todd's going to preserve this forum forever, and The Riddler will always have won seven (or is it eight) in a row. And (drum roll, please), nobody is going to match The Riddler with one go round.



Axelwolf, you are so lame, it's truly pathetic. Go back to assisting the adjunct. Do you get paid for that?

[The Boz]

The real bullshit here is that John Astin played the Riddler in one episode.

Everyone knows Frank Gorshin was the only true Riddler. Just like Julie Newmar was the true Catwoman, even if Lee Meriwether played her in the movie. And Eartha Kitt played her in the 3rd season though because she was black they laid off the romantic aspect of her relationship with Batman.

True classic TV!

You can't beat Frank Gorshin's laugh. Nobody has topped it.

I will give John Astin credit for one thing though, he has that sociopathic grin that serves The Riddler well. The grin he has when he's sharpening the fence stakes in The Addams Family.

I don't know why these alleged "APs" criticize The Riddler. All he did on this forum was make people money after providing brain puzzles. This goes back to the inherently unverifiable nature of almost all "AP" claims. They tell these years-long stories of uncorroborated winning. They expect people to believe them without third-party verification. But when someone like myself does things in full in-advance public view (like "Tipsters or Gypsters?" for a decade or The Wise Guys Contest for 25 years), they ignore reality. And those two things, both "Tipsters or Gypsters?" and The Wise Guys, clearly underestimated my personal record by a fair margin because you were locked into certain numbers at certain times/days of the week. No shopping.

Then this Riddler comes along, does things RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM, and the inimitable adjunct-assistant Axelwolf decides it's some kind of scam. Reality, for these alleged "APs," is a harsh mistress. I think The Riddler did a fine job, capping his exploits by winning with a long shot SB team.

And here's the tricky part of what he did. HE TIMED THE WAGER PERFECTLY -- timed it so not only did you get the right team, you got the right week to bet that right team. This forum could go on for decades, and nobody is going to outperform that little trick.

Hat's off to The Riddler, whoever and wherever he is.

A true power play would have been to have Batman portrayed by a Black Actor. So, Eartha Kitt and Sidney Poitier could have played Catwoman and Batman.

This goes back to the inherently unverifiable nature of almost all "AP" claims. They tell these years-long stories of uncorroborated winning. They expect people to believe them without third-party verification. But when someone like myself does things in full in-advance public view (like "Tipsters or Gypsters?" for a decade or The Wise Guys Contest for 25 years), they ignore reality. And those two things, both "Tipsters or Gypsters?" and The Wise Guys, clearly underestimated my personal record by a fair margin because you were locked into certain numbers at certain times/days of the week. No shopping.

Then this Riddler comes along, does things RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM, and the inimitable adjunct-assistant Axelwolf decides it's some kind of scam. Reality, for these alleged "APs," is a harsh mistress. I think The Riddler did a fine job, capping his exploits by winning with a long shot SB team.

And here's the tricky part of what he did. HE TIMED THE WAGER PERFECTLY -- timed it so not only did you get the right team, you got the right week to bet that right team. This forum could go on for decades, and nobody is going to outperform that little trick.

Hat's off to The Riddler, whoever and wherever he is.

The Riddler and The Joker have the SAME type of laugh! If I didn't SEE The Riddler, I would have automatically assumed he was The Joker!

The real bullshit here is that John Astin played the Riddler in one episode.

Everyone knows Frank Gorshin was the only true Riddler. Just like Julie Newmar was the true Catwoman, even if Lee Meriwether played her in the movie. And Eartha Kitt played her in the 3rd season though because she was black they laid off the romantic aspect of her relationship with Batman.

True classic TV!

You can't beat Frank Gorshin's laugh. Nobody has topped it.

No, no, and no! The laughs of The Riddler and The Joker are completely different. Completely different! How do I know this for a fact?

Well, ahem, I'm The Joker. Make those messages clear!!!

Hmm. Now that you put The Joker and The Riddler together, I definitely hear the difference. The Joker's laugh is a CACKLE, The Riddler's laugh is a GIGGLE.
