Fez's posted record

[QUOTE=armvin;13371]In my humble opinion, the bottom line is that if someone is hitting in the mid-high 50's range they are ahead of the game and WINNING! "We all wager and handicap the games to WIN more than we LOSE". By the way, that's my own personal quote. Fezzik has clearly shown that is what he does most of the time. Case closed. Next case on the docket![/QUOTE] You should get your own site or something.

[QUOTE=Twoniner;13370]Summary 1-Fezz wins betting 2-His picks in this limited sample seem to have not won. (line movement has been stronger than the W/L imo) 3-His contest selections have been very strong and anyone following all of them has done great. 4-No sharp player or Fezz himself would play EVERY one of these contest picks at WA numbers when they are posted. 5- It's easy to pick which games are bettable opinions and which are grabbing contest numbers.. the opinions have obviously done well in these contests too. Counting every contest selection in a W/L would be worse than Vegasinsider grading.. but there has still been quite a bit of value to be had from them.[/QUOTE] Fezzik has consistently beaten the closing line for at least four years. I'm surprised that he is - this year on posted plays as about 90% of the lines move in his direction. But then I've won for 50 straight years (betting vs the WORST lines I can find), and this year is a possible losing year, even against the weakest lines we can find. Most of my posted plays have moved in my direction (not as high a % as Fezzik's plays, but still we are beating the closing line by .75+ points on our early plays, not bad). The bottom line: I would not want to book Fezzik's plays, and he is on a very short list!

I follow Fezz' picks. Sometimes I bet them, sometimes I fade them. This is a slam-dunk easy answer to the subject: Do NOT chase Fezz outta here or anywhere!!! Look at Poker rooms - look at the loud-mouth idiots who all think that they are God's gift to poker - many of them chase away the newbies who foolishly put chips in every pot! When they draw out on me I always have a smile on my face, or " Good hand/good play/good bet"!. They ALWAYS enjoy( fall for) this! Then if they stick around long enough, the cream rises to the top. Please leave Fezzik alone. Who really cares what his record is? Just like poker, the past is the past, and it is time to focus on THIS hand - THIS week, THIS football/other game. Not the best analogy but it will do as it is getting late and I just missed a 1,200 payday as the Vikqueens let the Bears score in OT. IMSM

[QUOTE=JimS;13361]what is the actual RTP website?[/QUOTE] roughingthepunter.com

I get it............

[QUOTE=Fezzik;13358]FURTHER, I've told all the last month 'no picks' since I said my best bets are being used in the contests.[/QUOTE] So does this mean WAS +7.5 -120 and MIN 2h tt un 14 -120 won't count in your record?

Agreed that Fezz's picks are good ones - market seemed to like them. Also agree short term is meaningless. That said, it's tough to criticize another site when your own site is hitting 45%. Bottom line in my opinion is that no one will publish 54+% NFL picks that are WA after Wednesday going forward over the long term.

[QUOTE=custer;13386]Since some of you clearly don't understand what is going here, I'm gonna post one more time to explain. No one cared about Fezz's record. Everyone I know thought they were good picks, and the market generally agreed. Then Fezzik went to SSB and told them their model sucked. Which it does. That they were leading people on just like most touts. Which they probably are, unwittingly. But then he said something to the effect of, 'I'm better than you guys, it IS possible to hit 55%, I do it at LVA.' So then Dreamer (or someone else) said something to the effect of, 'Are you sure? Has anyone compiled the record?' So then Fezz said to Dreamer, 'Ask Anthony for a comp, compile it yourself.' So then Dreamer did. And it was 45%. So then Fezz said, 'That's not fair, you have to count my Hilton and Money Talks plays. They have won' However, those 'picks' aren't close to available when Fezz plays em, let alone when they're released. And Fezz knows that, as the fact that he posted some of them but not others as 'official' plays. Dreamer does a better job at explaining this in the SSB thread. Its not the record that deserves critism, its the reaction to it and hypocrisy. sharpsportsbetting.com, its basically the only thread in the general forum[/QUOTE] Again, I can't reiterate enough how much I hate people who harp on record keeping. But no one's doing that here. Really, the problem people have is that Fez just shot off about hitting 55% without even knowing what his record was! He picked a number that sounded good (and correct) and threw it out there with ZERO evidence. Hell, Dreamer could have tabulated a 52% win rate at LVA--aka break even--and I still think Fez would deserve everything coming to him. Fez you're the best in the business, baseless statements and shooting from the hip from a guy with your pedigree are not necessary. There's no sugar coating what happend here. It's over, you made a mistake, we move on.

Agree 100% Ready to Rock!

May both SSB and Fezzik hit 54% going forward. Seriously I know all of you put your work in and I hope to see results bound back upwards.
