Title: Done posting, can't stand the people around here. GL to all.
Post by: KingOfSports on June 20, 2013, 02:05:55 AM
I try escrowing for people and get called out as a scammer when I have to decide who is right n who is wrong. All I have tried to do was help people and help bitcoins grow but nope, even then I get fucked over when trying to escrow a simple transaction. Bitcoin will never be successful without some honestly in the user world which is very rare I have discovered sadly.

Alright so many have asked me to post my picks somewhere. I did this for a bit on reddit but forgot to post some plays and honestly not much attention to it so I stopped there. I am by no means a "professional" sports bettor but the 3-4 years I have been betting sports, I have shown a good profit of about $10,000. I will never do this for a living and I'd advise anyone who thinks gambling could pay the bills, it won't. Keep it as a HOBBY. That's how I look at it.

I will be posting my plays here but just fyi, know that I have been working on a site to sell my plays very cheap but sell them nonetheless. I have talked to a few members here about it. For now I will be posting them for free here. Anyways feel free to PM me with any questions but I will keep my risk/win amounts in USD just to know how much I actually am up or down $$$ wise...I buyin and cashout a lot. Sometimes I will place the wager in BTC sometimes in USD but I will post the amounts all in USD here (sorry). I will update my record accordingly and I generally do not play any favorites greater then -150 just in advance. BOL to all.

Current pending plays:
Bruins +100 to win NHL series (finals) Risking $300 to Win $300.
Record: 0-0 +$0
In the future all of my plays will be submitted here BEFORE the game or series has began.


he is really good deff follow :) GL BRO!

Nice man, hoping for a Bruins win to pretty much seal up the series, not looking good though atm. Had Spurs +7  last night which pulled thru but sadly my bigger bet on Kansas City Royals ML fell thru after they gave up 3 runs bottom of 8th inning.

Also guys check out Casinobitco.in, a new sportsbook that will have casino and sportsbook together in one! They are pretty cool, hopefully my deposit confirms quickly so I can place a wager there on Nationals tonight. I tested their payouts and they are smooth as can be, instant withdrawals and they give you a link to the blockchain.info link of the payout too. Please note, I am in no way linked to the owner, I am just a player that has agreed to test run their sportsbook.

No joke!  I can't wait to see the game... although, after watching Italy and Japan last night anything could happen.  Never would have though to see a 4-3 match between those two.  

FORZA ITALIA!

I would put your overall +/- in there or don't put the record there at all, like some have said before if your betting -1000 games you expect your wins to be around 90% thus the thing of your record that matters is how much you are +/-, not really your overall win/loss record so to speak.

KOS, would u mind if i post my results in ur thread as a way to keep myself updated?

It's based off 100's

166 means if you bet 100, you'd get 66 if you won
Since you bet 0.01, you get 0.006 if you win

Plus your 0.01 of course


Title: Re: My Sportsbetting Picks (Record 0-0 +$0.00)
Post by: KingOfSports on June 20, 2013, 07:17:52 PM
-166.7 is the american odds of your bet. When the symbol before the number is "-" such as -120 or -150, you risk THAT amount to win $100. When the odds are "+xxx" then you WIN that xxx amount in profit for a $100 wager. So say you like the heat tonight to just win outright, a line might be -300, you must risk $300 to win $100 in profit. Or $3 to win $1 in profit. However what if you like the spurs at +250, then risking $100 would payout $250 in profit, a total payout of $350 back to you if they won. For this situation of washington nationals you must risk 1.667 btc to win 1 btc exactly in profit. On bitbook you will also see decimal odds which are the same payout but can be easier to calculate payouts for some players. For example a -200 line would be 1.50 decimal, for decimal odds you simply multiply your bet by the decimal odds. So risking $200 on a 1.50 odds game would be $200 x 1.5 = $300. For american -200 means you would risk $200 to win $100, so risking $200 would pay you back $300. These are the same payouts just different ways to show the odds for a game. I personally find american lines easier to read/calculate but thats just me.

Really hope the Heat fall on their asses tonight.  I hate that team so much.

I got 0.05 BTC on the Spurs ML.

Also, 4-0, 41'... looks like the smarter bet was the 8.5 o/u on the ESP/TAH match.

hopefully I can get a push!

If I would have stopped and thought about it for a second then I would have taken the under, too.

Essentailly 8.5 under was TAH +8.5, as I don't think anyone expects Tahiti to score a goal... and I took TAH +8

Oh well, as long as the score is not 8-0 then I will be fine with it :)

Two lines I like for tomorrow, put a little on each. Will update tomorrow if any additional plays or higher wager on either play.
06/21:
Oakland Athletics ML -105 Risking $210 To Win $200. WIN
Texas Rangers ML +110 Risking $100 To Win $110. WIN


Also considering the over 6.5 (-120 currently) for the Oakland vs Seattle game, I normally do not bet over/unders often, however both pitchers have faced the other team in the past week or so and Seattle's pitcher got lit up by Oakland in that game. This might lead to batters seeing the pitchers well tomorrow since they just faced the respective opponent pitcher. However, another thing to look at for over/unders is the weather and wind which the data for such is not out yet. Will let you guys know if I choose to bet it tomorrow. BOL to all.

Also, side note, I know BTC is at $113 each on mtgox, however I believe BTC will reach $100 in the near future. I am paying $100 cash any low cost method (would prefer bank deposit) for 30 BTC in preparation for NFL season of betting. PM me if interested. This offer will remain open as long as BTC is at least selling for $99.25 on mtgox.

Currently no play on the Over 6.5 for the oakland vs seattle game. However, I am increasing my wager on oakland ML at same odds of -105 from $131.5 to $210. Current plays and previous post updated. Also adding another play:
Chicago White Sox vs Kansas City Royals UNDER 8.5 -115 Risking $115 To Win $100  LOSS

Yeah I know haha ugly turn of events. A friend who has been hot lately provided me this pick, put a single unit on it after I looked into it n liked it as well, sadly this is why over/unders I generally avoid, they always seem to miss for me. Hopefully Texas and Oakland can make up for the missed read.

Probably would've passed on that one to be honest. I know I remember looking at the early games last night and Haren was pitching for Washington...he's horrible imo. Don't know about the over/under I would say I am in the red for over/unders so I generally do not play them.

All of the public is pounding SF and I think its a good pick however I am going to stay away from it. A couple very profitable cappers who play dogs only also have pegged Miami today. Seems like a bloodbath waiting to happen. Good luck to you though man. As of now no plays for today. Still looking but there are days where I don't make any picks and this might be one of them.

Fixed for ya.

REAL FOOTBALL!

Truth!  Although I do much better on betting on NFL than I do on CFB.

Baseball  has been treating me well so far this Summer though.

Haha thanks man and sorry guys for not posting any picks today. Ironically the reason I was gone all day was driving to another state to purchase those coins in preparation for NFL season, found a seller and all went well. Unfortunately bitcoinbilly I am no longer looking to purchase any more coins but I appreciate the offer  :)  I am now quite sunburnt from the trip (don't know how that happened honestly) but I will be posting plays for tomorrow for sure if I have any. Hope you all did well or do well tonight on my day off! BOL to all.

Yes it was! Bottom of ninth, Brave only up by 1 and the Royals got a runner on 1st n 3rd with no outs...2 outs later runners on 2nd n 3rd and luckily Kimbrel got the 3rd out haha. Pittsburgh crushed seattle early on, beautiful 2-0 night for +$303. Hope everyone did well on their plays!

Also guys, I've made the official announcement for my BTC escrow service. Fast and Free* is the motto  :) Any amount up to 3 coins is free for both parties, and the max fee for amount wise is only 1%. PM me for details or just read my bitcointalk post addressing everything there is to know about my service. Here is the link:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=243897.0

Please know I am not new to escrowing and have escrowed well over 30 BTC and 30 escrows with never a problem on sealswithclubs.eu, the bitcoin poker site. My rep on there (same username "kingofsports") can be found at sealsdeals.info, the site's Web of Trust. I currently have a trust of 3723 with over 50 comments too regarding many of my transactions/escrows.

Boston is too heavily juiced. Should be -140 boston IMO. Oakland game is honestly a coinflip in my opinion, only slight advantage is the home advantage aspect.

LAD and STL would be plays I lean towards but I normally do not play greater then -150 favorites like I said before, just not enough value to the risk. Kershaw a continued hot pitcher against Lincecum who I am surprised is still a starter after his last 2 years or so. Lyons vs Astros, obviously go with St Louis there. Both are these are VERY square plays so I would be careful, public in long run gets buried by Vegas remember. If you bet a unit on both, if either one lost you would lose money. Only way you come on top is if both win, keep that in mind. BOL to you.

If I didn't gamble all of my winnings away in Poker this week, I'd go with the Yankees ML today, and if they don't hit it then double down on them tomorrow.

They have the Rangers number so I don't see them losing both games.

Thanks. Just know that whilst I may not be particularly vocal in this thread (mostly because I don't want to crap it up with my cold streak) I do listen to all of your picks (when I see them before I go to bed) and they are appreciated. You've outpicked my "professional" tipster trial sub (Doc Sports) who have given me 4 losing MLB picks so far...

Maybe you'd consider merging threads with stayeduptolate to make a consolidated betting tips thread? It might get pretty lively if there was one place to go and I'll certainly look to start chipping in a lot more when the EPL restarts.

Ignore all of Doc's picks, trust me his "cappers" suck. The only play to ever look at his yearly once or twice BIG10 Game of the Year play made by Doc himself. I have noticed he is 3/3 for those. Otherwise all of his stats are lied and changed, literally he lies thru his teeth of how good his picks have been. Write down his picks and go back to his page 2 weeks or later and you'll see what I mean.

Yup. The best thing is, if I wasn't on a free trial, I would have had to pay $60 for those picks so far!

I mean - if I made picks by tossing a coin, I'd have a 1 in 16 chance of getting it as wrong as his pickers have so far :)

I assume the 0.5 from 14dD2jzPSpY4kzVacPbVThk187MCupwLCu would be from you? If it wins or there is not enough interest where would you like me to send the coins?

In the future to all, please post the address you sent the coins from preferably an address you own and could sign a signature for if there are any arguements of who sent what. Also please tell me how you would like the coins to be sent to you if the bet wins. I will make a list here of all who have deposited to the pool and their agreed payout method. Can send to bitbook account or bitcoin address.

So are you still going to be posting your picks here for free or is it all now "kings big bet".  Just seems like every sports handicapper comes in the forums gives good picks for maybe a week.   Then comes up with a "new" great idea of getting BTC and betting for others and no more free picks ?  Then in a few more weeks fade off into the sunset...  Not saying that is what would happen here, just making an observation based on other threads.

Haha I completely understand this statement, don't worry I ain't disappearing. I have far more invested into bitcoin in the long run. I will continue to post plays for free but as the OP states EVENTUALLY I will be charging for my plays. Looking at todays card now, will let you guys know of any plays shortly.

Well I would be happy to pay for plays eventually, if the streak that your putting together continues to pay off.  You have a good start and if your able to keep it up, expect me to be happy to play.  Any thoughts on pricing and/or a refund if your pick loses?

I would imagine it would be a subscription either monthly or yearly like some others offer which means no refunds, he is just giving you his study and betting is up to you.

I would possibly be interested in a by sports bet NFL/CFB type offer also.

Some places offer refunds of the purchase price for losing bets, it is on a game by game basis of course, this is something that I would like to see implemented if it wasnt a subscription based.  To be clear, the amount I bet is up to me, but he would refund the amount that I paid to him for the bet that lost not my bet amount.

To answer you, I had all my prices on a site I was creating. However the developer went MIA, still the site and the same policies I hope to implement some day are on this site. http://bit-switch.com/kos/
The site is NOT live so do not buy anything using the checkout please. My plan is to eventually offer cheap paid packages that do refund almost all of your money if they do not show a profit. 90% refund for the daily package, and 95% for all longer packages. The reason why it would not be full 100% would be to pay for the costs associated to accepting bitcoin payments and then manually refunding them.

Oakland is looking good, hopefully they keep it up. Ah friday night is here, as a sports bettor its always fun to watch new sports and last year on a couple fridays I would follow the Australian Football League (AFL), though they start late they are always fun to watch and put a couple dollars on when I'm home on friday nights. I am not counting this as a play because literally I know nothing that could make me profitable in this league haha nor am I betting my norm amount. For giggles and to enjoy the game more I've put $11 to win $10 on Adelaide Crows -10.5 pts (THIS IS NOT A PLAY) in their match tonight against the Gold Coast Suns. Even if you don't bet or live in Australia, the AFL games are quite interesting to watch I must say. Firstrow.eu generally has those games that you can watch or really any sports match that is televised somewhere in the world.

Oakland won 6-1, had a feeling Shelby Miller would again disappoint, was right. New record is 7-3-0 +$525.

Had one play today but the juice became too much to make it a play. Pirates 1st 5 innings -0.5 spread at -120 Sigh...when I went to go place the bet it was at -130, max for such bet was -125 in my mind so had to avoid it sadly, would've won. I did win a prop bet, will not count it for this thread though, normally do not play such but the prop was Yes/No Run in 1st inning for the NYY vs BAL game, both slugging teams with average bullpens. +100 for the YES pick, I took it Risk $75 to Win $75, it won luckily. Like I said though, it will not count for my record. Sorry to all who follow this thread, really wishing for some plays to pop up at me  :-\ no rush though. I honestly first thought Phillies would be a good strong underdog play tonight but I looked at the line and said what the heck to myself, no way they should be favorites but somehow they are at -120. I think they win but thats just a lean I have. Hope everyone did well today/tonight in betting!

Biggest play so far for this thread. Hopefully doesn't bury me :D After looking at all the games closely, since I had a lot of time, I will say this, my betting is generally not based on "value" like some bettors mainly do. Some bettors bet multiple underdogs that they believe is +ROI in the long run, simply put I can list a couple for tomorrow but I prefer not betting decent dogs or favorites, many of my picks as shown are slight favorites or slight underdogs. That being said I personally would say the line of +140 Cleveland tomorrow has good value. Cinci at +150 did too but it has since dropped to +140, still kind of decent though imo. St louis may look good to some but let me warn you, I think Oakland wins tomorrow but the juice is very high, the line will probably move to +110/-120 or +120/-130 by the time the game starts. Anyways thats my interpretation for some of tomorrows big games. Here is my one play, and my biggest one of the thread so far. You could consider this my pick of the week I guess ;) BOL to all!

6/30:
Seattle Mariners ML -108 Risking $324 To Win $300.

Like this pick enough that I'm going to put the pool of .6 BTC on it for my followers. Now really hoping it doesn't burn me. This is a pick that I am very confident in. What is everyone else playing??

I saw that thread man... guess it took a turn for the south.

I don't know how much faith I'd put in the integrity of a lot of characters on here.

You are throwing a lot on the line by doing escrow it seems.  Looks like you got hit hard by some stupidity.

Good luck to ya :(

Really sucks that a couple of douches are driving you away. Although, as I've said before, this so called "community" really does stink sometimes.

Anyhow, why not try and make something positive out of this? You've identified an issue... there should be a solution to this. I have a few ideas around this and the whole trust element.

PM me and we could have a chat on irc or something sometime and see if we can formulate a strategy.

To those who have showed interest in following my plays and such, PM me and I will PM you any picks I have. Lately lines have looked ugly, I'm itching for a play but after that seattle loss can't rush into anything. But yes sadly I will not be posting as much on this forum if at all after what happened. You try to do a nice thing and just get accused and burned.
