   Perfect example.  Baylor M/L on Thursday. They happen every night.

Scal,
I could never try to be a pro gambler either even with a HUGE bankroll and lower offshore vig to make it plausible. The stress would kill me in all the bad beats you constantly get! People keep pointing to billy Walters but do they realize he's a very wealthy business man apart from sports. Guy owns car dealerships, land, etc, etc.. Only a fool thinks he could make a living gambling sports with Full Vig and a tiny bank roll.
This is how every person on this forum feels (that doesn't have a mental illness and a substance abuse issue)! Truth hurts!

Are we in the twilight zone? Did CG really just say Scal is a class act

The way that last play happened was ridiculous. 


Interesting, tragic and completely believable. "Sorry" doesn't compensate you for your physical and worse, psychological wounds so I can't say it.

Agree with everything.

I don't handle stress well in my daily life nevermind putting up with this lunacy 365.

uuuummmm,to be fair this dude has previously given a fairly in-depth synopsis/advisory piece on his former exploits as a pimp,hahaha....not to say there is any justification for verbal or physical abuse or racial profiling or anything of the sort......but im kinda guessing in that line of work that altercations/interactions with the constabulary are pretty stock-standard....comes with the territory when youre selling /renting women for sex,right??

of course i aint got the faintest idea if hes serious or not but i'll just take it on face value the same way we do his story about that other unfortunate incident.......point being,we dont know the exact details of wat occured nor wat led up to said incident in terms of extenuating circumstances/events.

Had no idea...having said that, he is entitled to his Miranda rights and/or evidence presented against him in a court of law, as opposed to a billy club or some rough-housing to concuss or knock out some teeth.

those two games I mentioned are candidates for some of the worst losses in maybe the last 10-15 years in NBA would u not agree?


Not even close.

What's up everybody, you're boy JoeyOhhh here, man, not sure what happened last night. Someone must've figured out my password, came in here, and posted all that crazy and insulting stuff. My password is "March Madness", so it was pretty easy to hack. My phone was off for those two hours, but luckily whoever hacked my account never changed the password, and only posted that one racist thing.....

"Guidos", I love Guidos!! Are you kidding me?!?! My sister's, friend's, Mother's, hairdresser is half Italian.....

Anyways, still trippin' balls here, even at 6:30a.m. PST. I was drinking Vodka/Red Bulls, popped a few 'E's, and shot some cat tranquilizer for good measure. Also, got into a huge fight with 5 MMA fighters! You can tell by this tiny scratch under my left eye......

See y'all later, Joey needs his rest after banging and 80 year old GILF......

PEACE!!!!

I will continue to fight and claw my way back, but with my losses if this thing turns me into bankrupt I really need to write a book or something about these games...  it's not like I have blowout losses basically ever.

Please stop talking about an organization that doesn't exist! You are your organization and betting empire. Stop the insanity Susan Powers! Glad to see this thread slowing down a bit, with less donks chiming in. Why cant you just focus on betting sports and forgo all the tools on covers stroking your ego? The video where you confessed your need to post in the forums was extremely telling.Part of me is pulling for you but another part of me knws you need to fail in order to find your true path in life.

Unfortunately you are the farthest thing from a professional gambler. TBH I doubt you can ever be close to one either.

Time to get back on the Nets tonight.  Charlotte 0-8 ats at home off 4 or more game road trip.  Johnson/Williams/Bogdanovic/Jack were a combined 9 for 40 last game they should bounce back.

  You got it wrong.  You acted professionally, and like a gentleman, by congratulating him on his head-to-head win. He acted like the arrogant pr*ck that he is by calling people that were busting his balls "excrement".  So nice. Instead of accepting a most fortunate win and rising above the fray, he took the ungentlemanly route and called out all his detractors, using a most vulgar word.  Nothing professional about that.  Nothing surprising about it, either.

So true Rod.  

True professionals NEVER utter any of the four letter words OR the word "excrement", the most vulgar of all words.

Locked and loaded around 11:40 am pacific standard time

TWO TEAM PARLAY

Charlotte Hornets ML (-170), Washington Wizards ML (-155)

$1000/$1612

You say why parlay CG? I'll tell you why, because It seems if I bet both separate I would go 1-1 and lose one in heartbreaking fashion like usual by a pt or half pt like I have so many times...  so just a different approach... I am on a great NCAAB run 5-0 my last 5 plays but cold in NBA

I am in the midst of a mini comeback 5-2 +$3573 my last 7 plays... so a win in this parlay tonight would be huge..

I singly handedly ended the Bucks 6 game losing streak last night as soon as I placed my MIami -1 bet.....  Will pathetic Indiana (losers of six in a row) get off the schneid tonight now? or will it be the pathetic Brooklyn nets who blew an epic 13 pt lead with 5 and change left against Phoenix for me at home a few weeks ago, who win outright in Charlotte?

Lets go Wizards and Hornets... all u have to do is beat the lowly pacers and nets at home, time to GET IT DONE

I agree with normally never parlaying, but just looking at how I vig out so many nights and it's almost always a 0.5 or 1 pt loss off the spread, I figured why not parlay the ML's...   so a backdoor or anything sick that usually happens against me won't matter as long as the Hornets and Wizards can simply win outright against the pathetic Nets and Pacers

lots of good plays tomorrow I agree brother, but I do not feel like this is a forced parlay by any means tonight

I am betting that the Pacers don't win outright who are losers of 6 in a row with ZERO playmakers on offense with a team in Washington who has won 5 straight at home

and also that the Brooklyn Nets do not win in Charlotte....

will I win? who knows but this is a solid parlay...  my luck tho is so bad that any bet can be lost just because I am indeed that lucky

would be fitting if I single handedly break the Bucks and Pacers losing streaks in consecutive nights....  or a Nets win.. the team who cost me twice a few weeks ago, once in a historic 5+ min scoring drought meltdown, get the W in Charlotte tonight
