      When your soon to be ex wife hires a drop dead escort to sit beside you at a bar on Friday night. That is a trap.

      Chicago -2 is not a trap. It is a wager. If you feel it presents value according to your handicapping then play it.

      As long as your soon to be ex wife is not your book, there is no trap.

            No such thing as a trap. Either there is perceived value or there is not.

            Traps are for folks who don't do their homework.

              It is not a good bet. Home dogs in that +1- +3 range are solid plays.

              Pulled that out of my ass. Can't back it up.

                          Trap = Too Good To Be True. Wagers like that typically don't win. Taking Chicago to me is a no brainer.

                                    It is a wager not a Christmas gift. There is value or none.

                                    If you think something is too good to be true you have not done your work. Period.

                                    For every opener there is a reason. For every move and counter move there is a cause and adjustment.

                                    These folks screaming trap, sharp, square, never recognized value based on their own work. And are justifiably second guessing themselves for not doing so.

                                    Usually spend a lot of time mumbling, making fuk you threads, throwing shit at their TVs, making barrelled in vids and playing at rebate wager.
