Forget it. I had it coming. I was a jerk to TJ for no reason. I had a very square $2K bet on Tanaka that day, and TJ bumping the post where he thought Tanaka was favored by too much sent me over the edge. It also ended my baseball season. Too much ridiculous stuff happens in this stupid sport.

Looking forward to football season where we can all help each other win some cash.

(RN is suspended until Sunday... something about enjoying a certain porn star being treated like a farm animal.)

The raiders have 5 wins in them this year dont they?

Positively. And stash Derek Carr in redrafts if you have very deep rosters. Schaub is toast, IMO.

So tough to back a team where winning 5 games is considered a positive.

With McFadden and MJD, we'll at least spin the clock and stay in some games if Allen can get the D playing even a little bit better, and that side of the ball is his specialty.

 
Let me put a few of these out there and see where it goes.

I got the Browns at 7 wins, but I see a blowup factor here. U 6.5 at +135 isn't a bad price.

Cowboys under 8 at -160 is too spensive, but the right side of the lean.

I expect a rebound from the Texans this year, but under 7.5 +125 is a nice price

I got a feeling this is the year the Pats don't live up to expectations. a 9-10 win season I could easily see. +145 U10.5 is a good price.

Raiders over 4.5 -155. Spensive, but they got 5 wins in them.

 
Not mine. But guy had been on fire

Unit Play - (TB @ DET) - Most Hits, Runs and RBI's Ian Kinsler Over Desmond Jennings -120

4 Unit Play - (TB @ DET) - Most Hits, Runs and RBI's Miguel Cabrera (DET Over Evan Longoria (TB) -130

4 Unit Play - (TB @ DET) - Who will record more strikeouts? Drew Smyly Over Alex Cobb-115

4 Unit Play - (KC @ CLE) - Most Hits, Runs and RBI's Michael Brantley (CLE) Over Alex Gordon (KC) -115

4 Unit Play - (SEA @ CHW) - Total Strikeouts - Chris Sale Over 7 -115

4 Unit Play - (HOU @ LAA) - Total Strikeouts - Dallas Keuche Over 5 +100

 
Any of you play Spanish 21?

I was staring at the table for awhile when I was at Foxwoods last Saturday, but never sat down. Other than the 10's being removed, it appears to have some favorable rules for the player. Lots of Spanish 21 tables there now, and they were generally more full than the regular BJ tables.

I also tried Blackjack Switch live for the first time. I had played it online before. There was one BJS table in the whole place. You have to play two hands, and you can switch the second card on both hands if it creates better hands for you. The catch is that all non-busted player hands PUSH when the dealer has 22. Seems like too much of an advantage to overcome. I played for three shoes and it was a dog fight. Think I lost $25.

I wish I still lived 10 mins from Foxwoods. That place is a gamblers dream in the middle of the woods.

Stick to regular blackjack imo. Spanish 21 is OK but really your best edges in a casino are Blackjack and Craps (and I think Baccarat)

Going out to play some craps and poker for the next 12 hours myself tonight.

Fox has the 10x free odds in craps. All of the tables were bombed though. Didn't feel like elbowing my way in.

Played mini-bacc for awhile. Kept Martingaling the banker. I won a bit, but almost fell asleep. Painfully boring game.

This guy Louis Theroux does documentaries for the BBC. Fascinating stuff.

Highly recommend watching the gambling doc. Scroll down a bit. The guy who was losing his ### at blackjack was pretty happy with him asking a million questions. I also enjoyed the one about porn. :mellow:

Love these. Watch the one on Philadelphia (titled Killadelphia) and the reason I don't drive down about half the streets in the city here

 
$2200 pot last night. Turned the nut flush and jammed. Guy called for his last $650 with the set. OF COURSE the board paired. :(

 
I think the great RN Chainsaw battle of 2014 is going to be immortalized in the FFA Comic thread, and it seems it will have an impartial referee.

Was a bit more than that. It got personal.
 
I saw the exchange 2 weeks ago. Thought something new happened. Ya'll need to settle down. Both good people fighting? Ridiculous. Don't drink and post if you can't drink and not post like a Richard

Yeah it went "next level". But it's done now. We need all fences mended by kickoff.

i've been working on most of those streets for years. still driving my Jeep Wrangler. as long as out of there by the time the sun goes down we are good. Red lights get a little sketchy when the weather is nice and i have the doors off. had a guy climb in and tell me to take him somewhere about 5 years ago. that wasn't fun. politely told him to get out while i grabbed "the club" as my only thing i could hope for. What is nice is most know me in those areas. not many white people driving around not buying drugs during the day time

Just watched the Philly one, looks like a lot of this was shot in Kensington, glad I don't know much of that area. Played baseball there a few times as a kid against the team there, and remember seeing needles and viles around the dugout. Scary area.

So is 5Dimes still the off shore of choice amongst you guys for football? My local just changed PPH sites, and the odds are turrible, like not even worth it juiced. Logged into my account at 5Dimes, looks like the live betting and setup is still solid, and I am a big fan of the looks of the prepaid card load/settle option.

 
Feel like I was punched in the gut last night. Sick hand of poker that I'll post, not that anyone but Ref cares.

Was playing 2-5 NL.

In 6th position, fold to me with 6-7 hearts. Raise to 35. Button calls.

Flop is Jh 4h 7c

I bet 90. Guy re raises to 190.

I guess this was my mistake, I called here after tanking for a minute. Figured him for aces, knew I was behind but dumb called anyway.

Flop is Kh... Made my flush. I bet 190, he re raises me all in for another 900, and I snap call. Stacks were about even.

Flop comes King.

He's got pocket Jacks. Paired board gives him full house. I cry and drink heavily.

:-(

Not sure that is your "mistake"

He is going to call a re raise there after the flop so the money was destined to go in. Cold Deck
