Re: So who's gonna pay 3K for Dink's NHL service?
What's with this Fishhead-Baus love connection? Tell us more.

Obviously not 30k at the same number, but given those shops will probably be within 5 cents of each other... if you line them all up and hit confirm quickly, yes, 30k is very very easily done. He never said he regularly does this.

but we are dealing in reality here correct? If you do that more than twice you will be on delay especially with your 5dimes wager.
There is no point in saying you can get down such and such if all the numbers will be different and you know this.
He tried to sound like a big shot and buried himself.
Did not see such........BAUS good people, calm down.

Of course not. I can't believe people are actually criticizing you for backing out of the bet when you merely want the basic rules in place to make sure you don't get gamed--the same rule that applied to RAS's matchbook market of "will they win X units."
The proletariat (pron.: /ˌproʊlɪˈtɛəriːət/ from Latin proletarius, a citizen of the lowest class) is a term used to identify a lower social class, usually the working class; a member of such a class is proletarian. Originally it was identified as those people who had no wealth other than their children.
i remembered chancing upon that Ras matchbook market. Wanted to wager on it but if I recall correctly, the market had no liquidity at all.
Of course the lines will not be identical everywhere offshore, but generally on NHL they are quite similar across the board.
Say you figure the San Jose Sharks are a good bet at -125 and want to get down 30k on -125 or better. I was simply pointing out that it is possible to accomplish that.
that is his style. It's not all ML. laying the fav -.5 pucks in regulation is a frequent play not very much -1.5 pucks, some totals in there. he provides typically paragraph long write-ups as to why he likes the play. A Canadian also....and they live for hockey !
5dimes doesn't use delay on players to the best of my knowledge. They are also happy to let you bet the limit again after a 1-2 minute wait period for them to re-adjust the line.
I've been in the gambling business for over 20 years and have learned alot of hard lessons along the way. If Dink wants to charge for his NHL picks, more power to him, but I wont be paying for it. If you simply do the math and figure a good handicapper hits at 57-65% of the time, how much would you really be making as a profit if you subtract the $3K fee? That's why it is'nt worthwhile paying for anyone's picks.
One of the biggest misconceptions I've learned along the way is that somehow a tout or someone who charges for picks, somehow knows more about I do....knows that "inside information" that you cant read in a newspaper......which is pure baloney. If you gamble on hockey, as an example, get a twitter account and follows all the beat writers who follow their respective teams'. It's amazing the information you will learn from them. A star player missing in an NHL game, does not have near the impact of a star NBA player.
Second, just watch the games, and look for trends. What do we know about a shortened NHL season? That fatigue will definitely be an issue, and dogs will be barking more often. One week for a training camp? I have never heard of something so bloody ridiculous, so look for some elite teams to perhaps start out slowly. At this point, we really dont know the fitness level of the players.
And here's the most important lesson I've learned............that less is better. I was once a compulsive gambler who would bet on every game, every night, and along the way I figured out that you could still make the same level of profit by betting 15 games a month as opposed to betting 450 games a month. When you take a back seat and analyze, you see things alot better as a result of being mentally fresh. At least that's what I've learned.
Are you?
Is Dink winning this year?

Maybe for Americans it's not possible to get a 30k bet down on NHL in 90 seconds. But for the rest of the world it is possible.

Where is Dinks website?Hey tout....update your website....very unprofessional....
Have you banged your mail carrier yet?:btj:
Seems kind of cheap to me.
RAS 2014 fees: http://www.handicapper.net/order.php
Football & extra 1,695
Hoops & extra 3,245
Both 4,795
I understand why Dink aimed high because it doesn't take many customers to make some serious money at nearly 5 grand per paying customer. Isn't this a large price increase compared to last season for RAS?
I love Dink but his decision to sell selections is curious.
I have a healthy distaste for the sports advisory business and seeing Dink in the same pool as Jim Feist, Wayne Root, Ray Palmer, etc. is disturbing.
I guess if Edward Golden (Right Angle Sports) sells college basketball plays and people respect him, then Dink is allowed to sell winning NHL plays and not lose the tremendous respect he's enjoyed from the sports gambling fraternity.
I'm conflicted.
is that what he said?So after listening to last night's radio show doesn't it seem that he's once again fishing for a tout gig?
It seems strange that he is quick to criticize touts, yet thinks being one himself should go without criticism.
As much as Dink touts the horse charity, it's starting to feel like dink has more of an interest than has been told.
A quick mention during the Tuesday radio shows should be enough...it sure beats the hourly plugs at his twitter page.
:+clueless
None of the guys mentioned on forums over the years who have a clue in a preferred sport are worth the money because u can't get the release number. Case closed.
For the very, very most part, exactly right!!
Its all a numbers game!!!..... of course a guy like Wanti will disagree with this.
Dinkus Pinkus Marininkus was charging 3 g's for Hockey picks? Oh my.
