It Was Gonna Happen At Some Point

The sports gambling is still in full swing, in case anyone wondered. I won $90 on the Blackhawks winning the Stanley Cup, a bet I placed in Vegas last July. NHL has possibly become my favorite sport. I either listened to, or watched, probably 70 Blackhawks games this year. Their radio play-by-play guy is fantastic.

Anyways, with baseball season in full swing I usually bet (and lose) on the Brewers every day. And then I make a large parlay bet, usually a 9, 10 or 11 teamer. The possible winnings are anywhere from $100 to $1200. Today I made an 11 team parlay. And I won $911. That's fucking right.

That's really all I wanted to say.

Girlfriend and I are heading to a Casino/Golf resort in Iowa tomorrow. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come for me at the blackjack table.

And It Only Gets Worse...

Quick update - I just bet on a horse race. Yeah, I'm not lying. I found a live stream on CBSSports.com from several different tracks around the country, but you can only watch for 30 minutes. After that you probably need to go to some other website and pay. My first attempt was a photo finish, which I lost at Louisiana Downs. I then moved to Philadelphia Park and quickly lost there too. $3 down. Enough of that (for now).
