Ive seen them before that have like dozenes of TVs, but also dozens of computer monitors with weird tracker/ticker stuff all over it. I wouldnt even know how to start. Do you just go up to someone and ask the ways you can bet and how much is the min? Its just weird. you just stand in line.... not sure if serious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive never gone over there because it seems like too much. Same reason Ive never played craps. It seems complicated and I know I would just be dumping money by being uninformed.

You are purposly making it easier than it is. Theres multiple ways to gamble on each game. And there are, i am assuming, various levels of minimums based on the odds of each bet. Its not like you just walk up and say $10 the Cowboys beat the Eagles. There is more too it and you know it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is more too it and you know it. you could do that. They also have parlay cards that are sitting around in random spots around the sportsbook. You can fill those out too to bet on.

We had been kinda causally chatting about meeting up; yesterday she invited me to what appears to be a rave. lol. Wut. I was like 'ya, no let me think about it'. And changed the subject, the conversation gets weird and my take away is I feel confident that her line of business is bringing the party to the raves. I gotta admit boys, I had a real crap week. The ex dropped some news bombs on me that shook me good. But its interactions like the one with this chick that remind me of the pure entertainment value of being single. Some of the things you run in to are just so strange that all you can do is laugh. I could never be single again. The whole electronic app dating stuff is bizarre to me.

You're even money with the casino if you bet it right. Edited November 16, 2017 by MKnight82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, Im no kidding, ive just avoided it because its a bit intimidating. But I dont gamble in general. Its not in my nature, I hate losing money. Im smart enough to know there are multiple ways to bet on a game, but dumb enough to not know how they all work and how to figure it all out. For example, during the world series one of the dudes from Houston had a bet that the Astros would win, but it paid out more if they won by 2 runs. Like - how did he get to that specific bet? And the Stros only won by one - so what did he win? Just his money back? It just seems complicated is all I am saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually only have them for events there isn't a lot to bet on. Like the superbowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're supposed to double your bet every time you lose. If you get on a winning streak take your winnings off the table and stick with your original money. Rinse repeat. But you're only 47% chance to win due to the zeros (green). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a huge people watcher and love to chat with all kinds of people. So its actually hugely entertaining. I just get shocked at all the different people and all the weird stuff they are into. Im pretty sure this chick has completely fried her brain though. This one, is absolutely, the strangest person I have ever e-met in my life.
