Let me tell you how bad it looks for Kentucky.
I have been betting sports almost a half century.
This is no BS. It's just the way gambling goes.
Last night I went down to Foxwoods Casino with about $1400 in my pocket. Left Wifey at home. My intention was to play Blackjack using the system I always use, it's a double count with tens and aces and playing two hands, but that's for another thread.
On the trip down I caught every green light. If it was a four way stop sign, I was first and got to go first. When I got to the parking garage, I found a front row level one parking space.
I decided I would have dinner first. This was downstairs at a place called "Veranda". Hardly ever overly busy. I was one of three tables on a Friday night at 8:20pm. This GORGEOUS early twenties waitress informs me she will be my server. Now, I know every waitress in every Foxwoods restaurant and NEVER have I seen this beauty before now. She tells me she was just hired and has been there three days.
So I proceed to order my New England Clam Chowder, Filet Mignon, and a Cabernet. Everything comes back perfect. I call the Restaurant Manager Johnny over, I have known this guy for twenty years, and ask him if my new waitress "Stacey" can sit with me since the place is empty. "Of course Mike, anything I can do for you". Lovely dinner, magnificent. I got a $45 tab and gave Stacey a $55 tip.
Off to the Blackjack Tables. Or so I thought. My eyes lit upon a High Stakes Pai-Gow Poker Table. I swear, swear to God, this Asian MILF was calling my name. I buy in for a Dime. Thirty minutes later I am up over $1200. Kicking Azz. She had a Straight one time and I whooped her with a Flush, Aces up!!!!! It slid back to Plus $1100 and that's when I made my exit.
Today, same things happening. I'm hitting every green light and making every four way Stop Sign first. My liquor store, who NEVER has what I want has FOUR CASES of my half & Half Twisted Tea.
Now WTF does this have to do with Wisconsin / Kentucky ?????
Very, very simple my degenerate Covers friends. When things are rolling your way, they tend to continue rolling your way. Until it's over.
AND IT'S NOT OVER.
I will win my Wisconsin +5 wager. And life goes on.
CG will win his Wisconsin +5.5 wager. And he will fly back to NJ in style to attend his Grandfathers funeral and make peace with his mother.
IT IS WRITTEN BY THE GAMBLING GODS.
