Betting on Sports Rule!!!!

On Wednesday, just after 1 week I narrowly lost $1200 in basketball betting by 1 point, I redeemed myself by getting 5 of 5 correct in my basketball bet and winning $1250.00!!! I put $50 down and have to pick 5 matchups and have to hit all 5 correctly, the probability is ridiculous. The payout was 25-1 so it was well worth it. I immediately withdraw $1200 via check and kept $50 for the NBA playoffs. I feel like celebrating with my new found money but I think the smartest thing was to put it in my savings and build up from it.





Last 4th of July up in Tahoe, I had $200 and played blackjack in a span of less than 5 hours and parlayed that to $2700. Winning the NBA bets seemed more rewarding to me. Although the payout in Tahoe was greater than my NBA bets, because the odds were totally against me yesterday I overcame it.

Congrats to Japan for winning the World Baseball Classic

Not only was it one of the most energetic and exciting baseball games I can recall in quite some time, it was also the most profitable. A few weeks before the World Baseball Classic starting it's first round, I'd put $100 on Japan winning the whole tournament as their odds were +450. To the nongamblers out there, it's essentially 4.5:1 odds. After a wonderful extra inning match up with Japan winning 5-3, my payout was $550.

As I mentioned in my previous post, I booked my Barcelona flight last Friday so this will no doubt pay for my plane ticket as well as taking care of my cell phone bill and an extra tank of gas. Things are looking up right now!

Gambling and Life

Putting money down on the Superbowl was a terrible decision. After winning my MVP bet, I took the money and started betting on NBA games. Ironically, the NBA playoffs last year was the start of my heavy gambling as I won a lot of money in May and June. Here's to me focusing the next several months reading up on the NBA in order to make the best guesses on my bets.

I've been in a thinking mood the past couple of weeks reflecting on my life, where my current state of being is and my future. The only music which helped me out was



Rilo Kiley - Under the Blacklight. I recommend if you haven't listened to it, please give it a chance. Under the Blacklight is the one song for me that literally calms me down and makes me not think about any problems or issues that I have going right now.

$200 in my hands

off to play blackjack. Wish me luck!

No Joke, I think I May Be Developing An Addiction.....

I think I'm slowing becoming a gambling degenerate. The past 3 weeks I've been obsessed with gambling whether it's blackjack, roulette, or sports betting. After seeing this picture from 4th of July where I won the biggest amount of money ever, I have these urges to go back. Considering I sold a lot of my useless junk around my room, I have a surplus of money that I can use at my own leisure.

That's me pointing at my stack of green chips, $25/chip so roughly $300 for one hand. Keep in mind that this isn't a big casino in Tahoe so this brought the attention of the pit boss along with other dealers that I was playing so reckless, yet winning so much at the same time
