Teddy Covers has hit the wall,,

Man, the hits keep on coming here. Hit the wall last week, over the cliff since then. I keep thinking things will change, but it's getting worse, and my bankroll is almost kaput. C'mon Teddy, I need you!

We get it! [QUOTE=TheRef;33780]Man, the hits keep on coming here.[/QUOTE] Can this thread be done....please! Nipsy

[QUOTE=Calsport;33299]I find it extremely difficult, and I have FIOS. You must have a slow off-screen book that doesn't have you on delay. I continue to try new places hoping they are slow, but you get one shot and most of the time they come back with a line change. Enjoy it while you can.[/QUOTE] I been playing RAS for 2seasons now and seem to have great success getting same release line and/or better sometimes (1-2outta 10) the key is to find offscreen locals running off PPH shops. I got 3 different books I spread the plays over to keep a lower profile... sides @ 2k and totals @ 4k so it definatly is possible. I use a combination of 2 computers w/ browser search function on standby where I punch in the rotation number. I normally use the countdown page to anticipate the release to the second but view the play on my blackberry. Just giving you guys some tips... Hope it helps TG

To even try to begin to get down to the nitty-gritty of the argument would require a basics course in statistics and probabilities, a history and a biology lesson regarding fear, and a primer in accounting and business basics. That's the reality. Square-sharps (as Fezzik calls them) get frustrated because they think being one level above Joey Threeteamer guarantees them success in this business. If I sold picks, I'd just fudge the stats, claim 70-80% winners* (*vs. the money line, of course), and cater to the morons. Who wants to buy 55% winners and grind it out. That sounds like work. I want pie in the sky, $10,000 weekends out of $300 dollars. Hit my website, answer your phone, gimme your credit card number and remember to get my picks this weekend so you aren't the poor sap who missed my plays last year and missed out on that $100,000 weekend.

[QUOTE=TheRef;33504]Maybe time for Teddy to give NBA a rest. Geez! I know it's tough but God Damn! Golden Somberero for Mr. Covers tonight 0-3. This is getting comical, as ER tanks on his "GOM Underdog" as the Hornets are beat like buck toothed Red Headed step kids. Teddy 0-3. 0-3? The Last 2-3 weeks have been brutal, yet each day the are GOM,GOY Watch & "WIN" Then there is an attempt to stick up for them ,yet that dude is getting crushed, too. I do not understand?[/QUOTE] No offense, but you shouldn't be gambling right now, at least not for anywhere near what you're betting. You don't have any idea what you are doing, and I don't mean this as an insult, just a fact. You're causing yourself undue stress and a lot of money, as even if you were winning, you could easily overbet, destroying whatever profit you may have made. In other words, until you get properly educated and experienced at this thing, you don't have a shot at making any money. You may be better off just watching the games for fun, or doing something else entirely. Sports gambling may not be your thing. You need a primer in money management, statistics and probabilities as they relate to sports betting and some time getting experience participating on sites like this on the internet to get a really good understanding of sports betting. This link provides a really good primer. I wouldn't recommend or not recommend his (Dr. Bob) picks, but I do recommend reading the articles: [URL="https://drbobsports.com/essays.cfm?cat=0"]https://drbobsports.com/essays.cfm?cat=0[/URL] The good news is that if you pick up basics of money management and talk to some of the people on the site, you can gain a more realistic picture, and start winning for the long-term a lot sooner (maybe even within a week or so), and the losing streaks shouldn't bother you so much. Meanwhile you should educate yourself through books (King Yao's Weighing the Odds, and Sharp Sports Betting by Stanford Wong are two good ones) and by asking questions to experienced gamblers who've gone through an extended apprenticeship in sports gambling, which can take up to 10 years or more. And possibly most important is understanding yourself and how you relate to yourself regarding gambling. Whether you're ultimately successful or not as a sports gambler has nothing to do with Teddy Covers or Sportsmemo. For me understanding myself and how I relate to myself regarding gambling is probably the best thing that has happened to me in this business. Sorry if I was harsh up front, but no use sugar-coating it.

This would qualify as hitting a wall [url]https://www.gambling911.com/gambling-news/disgraced-las-vegas-handicapper-ted-sevansky-loses-home-061311.html[/url] [I]Ted Sevansky the disgraced handicapper who can be heard touting his picks in the Las Vegas radio market has now officially lost his home. Sevanksy also goes by the name “Teddy Covers” on the radio. Sevransky’s residence located at 8029 Chablis Bay Street Las Vegas, NV 89131 was purchased by Crista L Munz for $185,000 as it closed on May 2nd of 2011. Gambling911.com’s own Thomas Somach first broke the story back in August of last year that Sevansky was on the verge of losing his home and had gone into foreclosure.[/I] I do have a little knowledge about the industry and pretty much any handicapper who is a player in the industry is making well, well into six figures selling picks. Is it an investment home? Something just does not add up.
