Charles Barkley Is On Denver +5 Super Bowl

Isn't Barkley the one that owed a hotel in Vegas several hundred thousand a couple years back? Probably isn't smart to be on the same side

Not Chuck. A book director got fired for a taking a winning bet placed on credit at Mandalay. I've seen several winning 6 figure bets on Floyd fights before I moved for a few years. He bets a lot of golf and football when in town. Never baskets.

Antoine Walker, Dr J and Dennis are some guys who owed major cash to casinos during Chuck's earning career but not Chuck. He gets busted for shit like tossing a drunk through a window and dui while heading to get what he told cops was best head in phx.

Chuck is a regular dude who happens to get paid well. He loves Vegas and gambling. If you spend time hanging with him you will like him. Played in MGM many times with him fight weekends. Guy parties like the king. He gets insulted when you pull out cash to pay for anything. Staffs love him because he is so cool and takes care of everyone. He busts on Jordan and Tiger for being cheap and ends up covering for them.

He doesn't give a shit if people are laughing at him. He knows they will laugh and he still gets paid a ton to sit on his ass and talk crazy shit.

I like the guy, he is funny, seems like he would be fun to be around. I just remembered when he was in the news for owing money but I guess I didn't see the whole story

Who's Mayweather on ?

What cracks me up about Barkley when he said this...

Dead serious

So sure of himself

Straight face

Unreal.

Total Degenerate

Is Charles right?

seaborneq · 02-05-16, 08:47 AM

Go heavy on Carolina. Chuck is brutally honest and funny, but he is not a good handicapper.

DOM-Ganador · 02-05-16, 10:46 AM

love Chuck.
BUT, he has lost more money gambling than 90% of SBR posters will see in their lifetime.

Scorpion · 02-05-16, 11:18 AM

what time is the game?

BigOrange · 02-05-16, 11:23 AM

Used to be 6:18pmET.

Chuck is a stroke he once lost over 600k on a Canadian tennis match. Also, heard he dropped north of a mill betting on the Sochi games. Obese degen was probably betting on the pre recorded ones. I would blow seaweed to be his book.

Wallnuts · 02-05-16, 11:47 AM

Maybe hes on Carolina? Reverse jinx thread on a grand scale

YoungGambler · 02-05-16, 12:44 PM

Denver covers. This one gonna be tight

StackinGreen · 02-05-16, 03:11 PM

Just fade Lang

I met him once right after a Spurs/Suns game. The guy was at a bar across from the arena almost as fast as I was after the game. I talked with him at the bar a couple minutes, good guy, just wanted to party and have some fun. He was having a good time just drinking and joking around with people.

Ra77er · 02-05-16, 06:55 PM

Barkley sounds like a good guy, I loved watching him play as a kid. I hope he is wrong on that Bronco outright upset pick though

Missed the last part...Carolina SU works

JIBBBY · 02-05-16, 07:00 PM

Charles Barkley is a long time gambler and a bad one at that... That's why he took the TNT job in the first place, he was broke... It worked out for him though and I'm sure he's glad he took the job today..

Tells you right there to fade Denver...

KVB · 02-05-16, 07:07 PM

I agree, Charles is notoriously bad at gambling, as much fun as he may be.

Remember when he was picking NCAAB teams on TV and didn't know anyone on the teams, it took a while, but then he admitted it and was laughing.

Funny shit.

You have to read him the spread first before he can choose.

Great guy but one of the best fades there is

slacker00 · 02-06-16, 10:52 AM

I'm with Chuck on this one. There will be nut jobs on all sides of the big events, just get used to it.
