Professional Sportsbetting

[redietz]

I wouldn't treat Redietz seriously. Look, he's probably break-evenish. Given that he probably gets 5-20k from a few people every year but they don't care because it is all entertainment for them while Redietz takes it seriously. If you expect Redietz to be break even the real question is whether he is trustworthy and I'd feel comfortable giving him very low 5 figures if I knew him. It could be fun. This doesn't mean he's particularly successful. If so - he wouldn't be taking on investor money at his age. I'm really not sure what his deal is but Kim Lee probably pegged it pretty close. I've known a few professional sports bettors and none of them are even similar to Redietz.

When I pointed out in simple and straight-forward terms how he is wrong - he has now ignored the question more times than I can count on my fingers. I should give up but his arrogance is top-notch and goads me on.

Well, if your assessment is correct, I guess Billy Walters hired me for my looks. Or are you arguing that Mr. Walters lacks the ability to track down handicappers' historical records, interview people who know them, evaluate the handicappers via conversations, vet them, and figure out if they know what they are doing? Is that your argument, that he lacks the sophistication and wherewithal that you, account, would certainly bring to the table?

LOL.

You are, as ever, a maroon.

Too funny. You have no way to respond so you fall back to having briefly worked for a man decades ago. What I typed tracks pretty fucking close and you have yet again ignored my attempts at a real conversation via questions.

When you can't answer you go to crickets or Billy waters or Marc lawnremce's (a computer programmer btw) out of print booklet.


All facts

So let me get this correct. If Billy Walters hired me, because it was decades ago, whatever reasons he hired me for are not currently applicable. Okay, that would make me past tense. That's a reasonable argument.

Let me also get this correct. If I had the best or second best ATS record in The Wise Guys for a span of 20+ years, competing against a bevy of well-known handicappers and, in the case of Southern Comfort, pure gamblers, and I retired from that three years ago, then the intervening three years makes me dated. Okay, fair enough.

But I thought this was all about having sufficient data to go on? You know, years and years of plays and all that before anyone can evaluate someone's ability to make money betting sports.

Evidently, accountinquestion thinks not.

But that's okay. I won Week One this season, and Week Two, and Week Three, and Week Four. But I did lose Week Five.

I guess Week Five is what counts, according to account's professional evaluation.

Really, I'm a loser. I lost last week, and that's the evidence for it. I should retire (wait, I am retired). Well, I should double-retire then.

Thanks, account. I needed your clear thinking and AP insights to enable me to see the light. I appreciate it.

Meanwhile, how 'bout them Red Raiders? LOL. Not sure how long they'll last. They lost their QB last week.
