    Bovada does that while they figure out what spread to put up. Check back in about an hour. Game doesn't start till 7:30 Pacific. I'm with Bovada as well so I know they do that frequently.

    @TheGambler-The last guy to keep doing this got banned and deleted. I'm guessing you're the same guy. We understand the promotion but posting repeatedly will get you banned. AGAIN

    do you think that they moved the chicago line to 10.5 because of the brackson13 pick ? or are that many people tailing him it drove the line up a point either way good luck brackson13 i am a chicago bulls fan so i had to take them getting 10.5 its just alot of points, but i wouldnt be suprised if chicago lost by 15 plus being as tired of a team as they are right now

Needless to say, it really starts affecting your game and I stood up and walked away after a couples hands of that; no way was I going to be responsible for these guys losing hundreds on my hand, I have no idea who they are. Anyway, just a stupid story, but hope you hit it big on your next pick!

    @whatsupjay, not a stupid story my friend. aligns perfectly with this situation. more importantly, thank you for your service. much more impressive than anything i've done here.

    my coworkers tell me that when i get to work tomorrow, i'm going to be chastised for having a beer at lunch last week. one of my friends/peers was celebrating his birthday, and i was a nervous wreck awaiting the boston game to win $25k, and i am going to get a lecture about having A BEER at lunch because one of the people that decided not to have a beer told our manager. i'd love to hear from my folks in europe, canada, and other parts of the developed world, because i feel like this would be acceptable behavior pretty much anywhere else. sorry to get off-topic from the game tonight. trolling the threads and trying to take my mind off things for a bit before tip off.

    Jimmy Butler ruled out for the Bulls, so the line just went to GS -11.5

    acceptable behavior everywhere as far as I know

    one beer is no big deal

    in Europe, some places it's normal to drink beer and wine with your meals

    @brackson13, I've had a beer at work too during lunchtime, because there was a big birthday gathering for one of our coworkers and I get really nervous and uneasy around big crowds, so I snuck back to my car and downed (Actually 2 beers) some and chewed alot of gum and everything was great.  Just do it in hiding and hide the breath, and nobody will ever know!!! LOL...but don't over do it and act weird or look drunk then your gonna blow it completely and lose your rep.

    The only thing that sucks in Canada is that you can't buy beer at your local grocery store and you can't drink a beer while walking outside! grrr

    I read not too long ago, a business group was out to lunch so a girl ordered an Arnold Palmer.... and then the next young intern ordered his drink, thinking the AP was an alcoholic drink, orders a whiskey ginger... it was 1030am, in front of some execs!

    Rules are rules and beer is alcohol so that's a no-no in any work place. Other countries it would probably be accepted as they are less strict and they seem to be much more laid back 

    Warriorsssssssss  Almost game time ...glad it's on NBA TV so I can watch it live ! Best of luck Jackson.
