couple years back when i first started.....

and was playing on credit, partied all weekend and next thing i knew i was down 15k....

so my newbie ass (still am)

$1000 parlay 3
$500 parlay 4
$500 parlay 5
$300 parlay 6

all pending on this play game...

http://www.cbssports.com/nba/gametracker/recap/NBA_20061218_SEA@MEM

needless to say i watched the highlights and of the end of that game 58 times straight, didn't sleep for 2 days and thats all i saw was the freakin half court hail mary that had me -25k for the week, worst weekend ever, and on top of that money i didn't have lol! That changed my life, 25k juiced, and interest, took me 3 years and paid a total of 50k to that book. At least i can laugh at it now!

-V

I remember i had Sonics and was getting 5.5 i think and they loss by 8 in double OT.


Notes: Sonics C Johan Petro entered the game shooting 66 percent (39-of-59) in his last 10 games. He was 3-of-6 against the Grizzlies.
Lewis had connected on 48 of his last 49 free throws entering the game. His one miss Monday night came with 4.7 seconds left in the first overtime, leaving the score 115-112 and setting the stage for Atkins' tying 3-pointer.
With the win, Memphis avoided matching it longest losing streak of the season -- seven games -- and snapped a four-game losing skid at home.

Seattle never trailed by 6 until the last 1:30 of 2nd OT.... LOL!

On a much smaller scale, how about this past Sunday, when the Dolphins kick a field goal with 43 seconds left, worth nothing, except to ruin my parlay with Houston. Had New England -8.
Ouch!

...but sometimes the ball bounces correctly like it was for those of us having Arizona and Oakland yesterday.

Greene could have easily scored a TD, but decided to intentionally not score allowing the time to run out when he could have increased their lead to 8. He doesn't and Jets only win by 1 and Zona covers.

...Oakland scoring a meaningless TD with 1 second left for a push was great as well.




WINNING!!!!!!

I noticed Big Bad Bill, that you must sucker the poker players in.

I have not bet much at it.

At the start, let them take all they want.

Just stay alive.

Variance will win. Never take the all in. They eliminate each other. I only won $5. lol!!!

Being half blind, not my thing. I cannot see after a while.

Looks like a fun game though.

I would not bet heavy, half the sites have bots.

Computerized programs, to take the variance.

If you play too much, the bot will win.

On small games, the bots do not play. They go for the big dollars.

You might be able to beat them, on a given night, but not long term.

It is people cheating.

One guy in England, has a setup. A video system reads a screen, and flashes him back the best cards. The moves.

He then plays like a regular. no one can tell!!!

I found all this, looking up poker sites.

I pass!!! lol!!!

Sorry. I'm a slave to sarcasm. Yes, I have sh.t the bed more than once in my life. Ask shadrach714 how I let $6.00 cost the two of us $70,000 at Penn National 10 Years ago. We were betting the simulcast at Tri-State Greyhound park in West Virginia.

I used to live at Penn Narional. Alot of jockey friends up there in the old days. We made alot of money. Came up on Thursday night and played poker at a joint owned by a guy named Jimmy a. After the game was over usually around 9 or 10 the next morning I would go crash at a hotel. Then head to the track. After the track we would head over to the FOE club where they had live music from midnight to 6 AM Had a poker game going in the back room and an occasional crap game. Wouldnt't leave until 9 -10 in the morning . Crach at holtel and then head to Penn for the night racing. then to the FOE club again. Then back to the hotel shower and head to the track for 1PM post time on Sunday. Then head back to Baltimore after the last race. Man was that fun.

"Adventures in Glue".

I had the shakes, like all epileptics get.

Dead sober, honest.

I am trying to glue the fridge back together.

Those tables inside.

So I buy some crazy glue.

I have my morning coffee and smokes!!!


I carefully take them out, line them up, and apply the glue.


I should have had another coffee...

All of a sudden, I am glued to the table. I shook a bit too much. lol!!!

That glue is good!!!!

I walked the table over to the sink, but both hands were glued!!!

I laugh, because i am an idiot by times.

Much pain later, one hand is free. I took chemicals out to fix the other hand.

It would made for nice writing though. "Adventures in Glue".

Indians up north, no one really knows...

"Bytore......Thanks..LOL"

For $65.00 a month, they work. lol!!!

You have to know which ones work.

Bots get insane, and chase a bet.

Those, we leave out.

Variance", is just the odds.

If variance swings your way, bet!!!

If she leaves you, for a joker on the table, stop betting.


Jokers always get the women, and the money...
