      Lot of rich oil guys like Opie

      But for the most part a lot of white uneducated trailer trash like Nosey living in Texas on government assistance

              As far as people who always say they want to move here to Las Vegas, I personally do not recommend it unless you are extremely financially stable, and by stable I mean either you have a steady, decent income or at least $50,000 in the bank. Because trust me, you aren't going to come here and make money off of betting on sports. In my year here I probably won slightly more than I lost, which is break even at best. And I lived a very economically conservative lifestyle(never spent money on anything except the necessities) and had a full time job.

              Making money off of betting on sports is a pipe dream at best. You are better off having a job and just betting on sports as a side hobby.
              Good luck with your new gig!

                A graduate asst is basically a gopher for the other coaches. He'll be cutting film and getting it prepped for the position coach, etc. He's probably heading to DIII unless well connected.

                    DO you mean you find 100% payback games and get coupons in the mail, or you play video poker 100% of the time and get coupons

                        You're right Vegas is not for you. Vegas, you either love it or hate it, and I think you're in the latter.

                        It's +EV, you're just not working the system. I had a gourmet lunch today for $8, then got free drinks and spent the day lounging around in an awesome pool.
                        Yesterday, I saw a movie for $5 in a theatre with stadium seats, in one of the cleanest, emptiest theaters in America.
                        Monday, I went to a pack room filled with crazy NFL fans, won $60, and I could've bowled all night for $5.

                        Yeah, it's hot. Yeah, there's lots of degenerates. Yeah, there's idiots who can't control their bankroll.
                        But Las Vegas is one of the best times I've had in my life. Viva Las Vegas!

                              I'm not trying to bring you down. I appreciate your writeups.

                              Best of luck to you. Sorry Vegas didn't work out.

                              Let us know what D3 teams to bet on!

                                Sunset Station has $1 midnight bowling and Fiesta Henderson has one of the nicest theaters in US for $5.

                                  I stayed at the Fiesta for a few days last year, movie theater was very nice. Was going to make my way to Texas because I knew they had cheap bowling, but looks like Sunset will be a stop next time.

                                                          He made a mistake

                                                          Coaching is a waste and no money

                                                                I think Mike's talking about +$ VP and other comps. Would love to hear how to get up to $30k. But I do think the Fishhead-style advantage play has some validity.

                                                                    Yeah, it's hot. Yeah, there's lots of degenerates. Yeah, there's idiots who can't control their bankroll.
