    I don’t think I ever would’ve got into gambling if my father didn’t take me to the race track when I was like 10 years old and now I look back I wouldn’t have it any other way some of the greatest memories of my life

    Dad only one. He'd even bet on the cockroach races when he was in the Army (put cockroaches in the center of a circle and bet on the first one to leave the circle)

    I remember going to the horse track when I was around 7 or 8. My grandmother used to hit the Indian casino monthly. Mom gambles a little. Wife gambles in Vegas and in the Desert. My brother was a total degen. I have already had the talk with my kids about gambling. Son was hustling classmates at 8 so we had to tone that down.

    I learned early from my degenerate Uncle. Gramma, other Uncles, and Dad used to play parlay cards. My uncle is still gambling, but not the amounts he used to blow. Guy always owed thousands back then it seemed like. Other side my Grandpa loved Vegas. I was doomed from the start with parlay cards as a four year old.

    My grandfather lost all his money on slots, so my fam has a deep distrust of all forms of gambling.

    I keep it to myself and a few close friends.

    LOL, fun story

    When I started working at books back in 2004... I started at BetEagle which is now Perhead... 1st thing that shocked me was the amount of people doing blow while working, and the hot chicks doing blow at that place... back then it was pre UIGEA and even clerks made tons of $... some even made like $10 an hour which is simply INSANE and IMPOSSIBLE today. Then what shocked was how insane the owner of that place was... wow... talk about roid+coke rage!

    Many times customers called me with the whispery voice LMAO:


    Hey buddy, acct XXXX... what do you have on ##%# (unintelligible)
    -Thanks sir I have your account but what team are asking about?
    WHISPER SHIT AGAIN... (unintelligible)
    -Yeah no sir, you gonna need to speak up, we are on a rush and I have literally 20 people yelling around me
    BUDDY PLEASE, I'm in the restroom whispering because if the wife catches me Im dead
    -OOOOOOO...KKKKKKKK....LOOOOOOOOL
