Is 666 the one from Vegas?ChainsawU said:
How in the world do you juggle 6 gals, or however many it is right now? I can barely remember what my wife and I talked about after dinner last night.

The 666 one is the nurse I tutored in math and paid for her to get Lasik. The Vegas woman is in global pharma sales and lives two blocks away. Last night, after I put together her new Ikea desk for her and tucked her into bed, I walked home - and on the walk home I bought a fresh lamb burrito. It might've been the world's most perfect night (for a dude). Also, speaking of best nights ever, don't worry I'm not gonna let a 666 dose me. Uno, dos, I'm about to get ghost. From all that nonsense. Amirite? Y'all probably talked about the inauguration after dinner last night.

100% true conversation--
16 year old son: Well Mom, the inauguration was today.
Wife: That's RIGHT! Did anything terrible happen?
Me: The inauguration was today...
They both laughed, so I did my job.
FYI: I despise both parties equally, and almost all of those politicians, so please forgive the political humor. It is not based on preferring one side.

How do I get instant updates when you guys post so I don’t keep missing these nuggets of wisdom? I don’t see half of these things until the next morning. NM, think I got it

You ever watch that show on HGTV Bargain Mansions? I was hanging out with my mom a few days ago and was laughing my ### off.
From a football lens, the Buccaneers have the best run defense in the league. If there were a stat in which analysis starts for this game, it's that (for me).
Weather of course will play a factor. The ####tier the weather, the more I like Tommy Touchdown. Continuing to lean under but love over on attempts.
If it's a close game, you're getting a good garbage time drive by one or both QBs. Think ego in this game. That highlights: Brady, Rodgers, Brown, Adams

A glorious day in Michigan as mobile betting starts at noon.
about the Tampa run D - Sunday will be their biggest test. They will be playing in the cold vs a hot offense. GB will keep them off balance IMO.

Speaking of new on line betting, MGM is giving two $50 bets for signing up. Will they allow you to bet both sides of the same game to insure one winner out of it? You only have to bet through it once. TIA.

Where they get you on the promotion is you have to play 15X thru on your initial deposit before you can cash out.

True on the casino side, but this is what they sent in their email:

I’m trying to get the books offerings before noon. MGM I haven’t got to yet. I’m trying to think it thru if you want to give up half the bonus.

Since it seems to be just a single bet-through I might just trust myself to not go 0-2. On the casino side I could just bet whatever is closest to even odds. I'm guessing that even after all the minimum bet thrus, they won't let me transfer any winnings to the sports side, which is all I really care about.

Nice work, thanks for the Habs. Eased some of the sting from ***6*** goals in the third period of the Bruins.

I'm going Detroit +120 because as bad as they are, I believe Chicago is worse. I'll pop back in if I add anything later.

I'll also be on Minnesota again if it's Talbot vs. Dubnyk in net.
Edit to add - and probably the NY Rangers if Jarry is in net for the Penguins.

Jarry in net, adding New York Rangers +128.
If one of Detroit or the Rangers win, I'm ahead, right

I signed up with DK, FD, MGM, and Barstool Sportsbook (Greektown).
About the Detroit/Chicago game tonight. I was staying away , may ingame play though. I know both teams suck, but Chicago also played at TB and Florida.

Good luck with MGM, I am having problems with their website. Maybe they want a deposit first, lol.

Cosjobs is doing a SB squares game over in GMTAN fellas. Still 25 square left. Would be fun to have some of you participate if you'd like. Fine to just pick a square or two if you just want some skin in the game.

I have been messing around with playing DFS on DK and I get the guys that create a player pool and then use a lineup optimizer to generate 100 different lineups. I can wrap my head around that concept. I have been playing the low stakes double up games and there are guys on there starting 20 of the SAME lineups. They are cashing, but all it would take is one player to under perform and you just lost $40. I mean, I spent 3 hours researching my NBA lineup and watching late injury reports and tinkering with my 3-5 different entries and I felt good--like I placed those bets and told my wife it is going to be a good night. I then proceeded to finish almost dead last in every contest I entered because one or two guys didn't hit their mark.
Couple that with losing all my NBA regular bets (J Grant, COME ON be aware of the clock. We needed that basket and one for us to cash) and last couple nights have been rough.
Just for all you to fade, I am doing the double up offer DK is running tonight (max $25) betting on McGregor to win.

Grant was 13-0 to the over...I caught about 8 of those.
Lamarcus was like 7-1 under when Derozan played.
Dead.

ended up hitting Minnesota last night but missing NYR and DET. I bet 2x on Minnesota but they were the favourites, so came out a bit behind for the night.

I have a PrizePicks account, I signed up on a promo to get a few months of Rotogrinders cheap. To be honest, I prefer any of straight up gambling, props or DK/FD to the PrizePicks format but I still have money in there, so I play every so often.

Whole world was on McGregor. Except for one quiet guy over in the corner of the living room last night, just smiling ear to ear after the fight ended. Jerk.

I like my Allen rushing overs so far. But my GB/KC SB picks all went to heck.....
For those trying to "understand" sportsbetting, Tom Brady's career postseason record was 30-11 going into this year's playoffs. I get he was a road dog, but they dangled BRADY +130 and BRADY +160 in front of our faces the last two weeks.
Both those games were pickems but Vegas gave the public the illusion that Brady had no chance. Why? Because the public mainly just rides the favorite. They didn't want money on the Buccanneers. Those plus money lines were there to manipulate the public into staying away.
Now, Vegas gets their marquee matchup (Brady vs Mahomes) and got to stuff their pockets on public money along the way.
Do the tears of Bills Mafia taste good, Vegas? I bet they do.
