Kinda like my bet with ChiArchie on ocho

I put money on the Ravens cause I knew it was the best bet. Pats are notorious for winning by three in big games. Balt up 27-0 and I find myself thinking how great it would be to see Brady stage a comeback!!! There is something wrong with me!

Perplexing

Some gamblers are action junkies, they need to have action. And the only way they get it is by increasing their bets. It's a high for them...... to have 20K on the craps table and rolling the dice. It doesn't matter if you don't have cab fare home that doesn't matter. I've been around gamblers all my life and seen this from more than a few.

Gambling at this point is an addiction just like liquor, drugs and other things.
