    Manny, I remember a time early in my gambling career. MNF game: Bucs vs Rams.

    Bucs trailing, driving on last drive of game. S/U in balance, ATS in balance. Heart racing, beating out of my chest. Got the late winner. Awesome.
    Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?

        Love the Hawaii game.

        The ultimate settlement of the day's money.



        Never forget these Hawaii seasons...

        Hawaii ATS
        Season W L P
        2017-18 1 10 1
        2015-16 3 10 0
        2010-11 11 2 0
        Not healthy season long money movement, especially for the "Hawaii Game"

        I might have been a little angry sometimes walking around the late night casino.

        Good times.

            Yes, Manny. I listened to many Hawaii games.

            If you're wired from the just-completed games, might as well tune in. I got to be a Bows fan.

              You make no sense, Gold. Bet if you think you'll win. Otherwise, chuck it.

                Chucky knows everything about everthing. Didn't you know that JJ? He knows everything. The guy knows what will happen and if he doesn't he knows what people will say about it. He is all knowing. The guy that knows when the world will end and anything else. He knows all.

                    Hard Eight.

                    Possibly the single most underrated gambling movie of all time.

                              If we are winners at the game, we want everyone to know we beat the man. When we lose, everyone can fuk off. Next stop is at whatever payday loan outfit I haven't bounced payments on. Then right back at it.
                              The Gambler's debt process mostly only increases as we reloan, payoff, reloan, payoff, reloan. Each reloan is higher in value till you reach the max...the ur fuked. Can't even pay rent this week.

                              A gambler's give a shit factor is zero for debt once it becomes overwhelming. Then the anger ensues at each and every game we lose, not happy with a win as the reinvestment process begins, usually losing it all.

                                  Observations. I know many many gamblers relatives as well. Grandpa couldn’t leave the horse track to save his life. My other grandpa took the cake though he brought degenerate gambler to a all new level. My father told me a good story once of my grandpa dad and grandma who planned a weekend in Vegas for a vacation so they drove from LA got to Vegas my grandpa had them wait in the car to check into hotel. He came out and lost all the vacation money they had to get in the car and drive back home. I’d compare compulsive gambling to the likes of drug addiction. Have your highs and lows… self anger regrets then go for another one. Then anger again regrets… I predominantly have had a winning sports betting career as I managed to cash out far more then I ever even had to lose. The amount of time and consumption it took into my life made me not a so happy person. This is not a blanket statement. Sure some have fun and are wise with their money and just enjoy it. Probably 2 percent. The rest lie. Even the ones acting the most put together are probably secretly chasing away at night. Look I’m not here to rain on no parades but from my experience most gamblers are anti social depressed angry un happy individuals. Sure some are all over SBR having fun but in real life most are probably more content with a bottle of booze and some sports to watch and some wagers. They could consume them all weekend. Some maybe filling a void. Lots on here have 6 figure and up careers and this is what they like to do as well… no problem or beef with anyone…. Simply stating gamblers are never happy (greed always want more) and angry. The greed is the best part because most could easily throw down 2k on a game yet bitch and moan about a dentist bill or any other expense…. Or many if they do win don’t want to spend a dime of it…. If I’m wrong Ok but I think deep down most know I’m not.

                                    Seriously? You’re killing me, man. Only reason someone will say this is because they’ve been losing so much that they’ll spin it as if they intended to lose because they like it.

                                    I got caught be police because I get a rush going to court and beating the system. 😂😂

                                            Ever been in a hurry to get a bet down, barely get it in, then it loses?

                                            Never be in a hurry to lose. There will always be another game.

                                            Of course, all the bets you pass on because of this advice will win.

                                              Treeemendous thread, complete with Hard Eight and Colt Brennan references.

                                              Sam Odom would be proud.

                                                    I've nailed some bets on the hop before.

                                                    Had a crazy lucky streak doing it, it must have looked so strange to onlookers.

                                                    lol

                                                    Was tipping the dealers huge on them too, they loved it.

                                                    Called 11 on the hop twice in that run.

                                                    Some things in a gamblers life will happen only once, that night was one of those things.

                                                      Need to venture to other casinos as all walks of stupidity do that at the craps table, it's so annoying. Anyway, I commend you doing all that action for each roll. I do iron cross and take it down after 3 rolls unless I'm shooting, then it's ride or die. The dealers get annoyed after a few times I say "take it down" and always tries to rub it in if a shooter is hot after I took the chips off table. Never understood the hostilities I get for doing that as at the end I tip well even if I lose.

                                                          But they don't say anything to the worst time consuming shooter who before shooting the dice does 2-3 mini rolls, holds the dice on the table and makes 2-3 mini circles, places his hand on the table and rubs on it, meticulously sets up the dice, picks up dice and, for only God knows why, starts vigorously shaking the dice in hands and craps out. All that in 2-3 mins.

                                                            So true.

                                                            Not to mention the dealer.

                                                            He starts grilling the dice, flipping them over with his stick before he pushes them to me.

                                                            I'm like, "Sir, please don't grill my dice, just send them over as rolled."

                                                            The looks I get.
