It’s like this:

someone goes to the blackjack table, let’s call him Gerry. Gerry is talking a bunch of nonsense about stuff that is just dead wrong. You watch him play, and dang hes playing dumb. Hitting 14s against a 4. Doubling 8s vs a 9. Hitting 12s against a 6. Just stuff every normal person knows.

they unsurprisingly lose. This streak goes on 4-5-6 times and then finally a winning session. Amazingly the cards just fall right. Gerry is ecstatic and tells anyone he can about the session he had and the money he won. Mind you it’s not even half the money he lost the previous trips.

you and others try to help Gerry because you actually feel sorry for the guy. In total you watch Gerry play 9 rounds of blackjack, he loses 7 times he goes, wins 2. The losses far outweighs the wins. Yet even to this day all Gerry can talk about is the two winning sessions. He actually thinks he has found a system that wins and wonders why no one else will listen. He actually claims to know more than the people that actually created the game.

making matters is worse is Gerry is the guy at the blackjack table that is trying to tell everyone else at the table what they are doing is wrong and how they should be playing their hands.

think we all have come across a Gerry from time to time. Best thing to do is just put your head phones on, ignore him, and be sure to tell the other people at the table to play their own hand how they want, or try not to let him bother you. After he leaves just have a good laugh and tell the all you’ve seen Gerry blow thousands and it’s sad but you just gotta let Gerry be Gerry.

I can relate blind as a bat yes Seahawks 500
I also believe that Seattle has the best chance of the 3 big under dogs to win SU. The ML is +395.

Dallas is Jeckle and Hyde. Who knows what team will show up.

I think the Dallas that went into Minnesota when they really needed a win will show up.
Dallas has had virtually nothing to realistically gain the last 5-6 games but now will go all out.
Grass is an issue, they are not as fast on D as with artificial turf.
TB is a terrible running team and Quinn will have Dallas adjust to have good coverage and also get some sacks vs that TB OL that still is playing some back ups.

I think Dallas is the better team. I am not betting either side but they should win imo
Some things against them but they SHOULD
But you also have to remember Vikings off back to back road wins and a crazy OT win against the Bills
Probably drained coming into that game

action vs investment. Little something for spice, if you see an edge. Larger wager if you see a huge edge. Injuries, illness, unit mismatch, etc.

This week teasing the 9's down to 2. Maybe Buff to 6.5. Look good

BOL all

So you took them on the moneyline as well so don't forget to figure that into your record.

So your best play in Dex thread
Seattle ML +395
And this doesn't count?
Yes .It counts in DEX tread.
It just wasn't one of my posted plays in my thread.
The plays are at the top of each writeup in my plays.
There are 2 ML plays with 2 ATS Plays for Minny and Chargers.

How can your best bet not count in your thread
Or it wasn't really your best bet and you wanted credit if it hit but not on your record?
I am confused
Honsetluy no knock on anyone if they lose I appreciate opinions and the effort but you gotta be honest
Makes no sense one way or the other

It’s exactly that. He likes to posts far fetched things so if it wins he gets credit for them, but if they lose he doesn’t want them on his record.

baseball parlays he didn’t want on his record. All his college football ML bets at huge minus juice he counts as just one play even if you’re laying 2 plus units to get it. He laid bets against the Astros winning the World Series that wasn’t counted in his final tally. College bowl thread had similar things were posted ML or something else and he counted it double. Someone called him out on that as well.

Could be honest mistake, but does happen a lot with him…. but you got it right he posted in here and there so if it won he could brag.

like you said, not a bash, just facts. I’m sure it will be taken as a bash but it’s not. Just facts. If you want to chalk it up as a mistake that’s fine. I don’t.

It’s nothing more than a blackjack player losing 1k at the tables and playing a few of those side bets and losing another 200. You can tell your buddy’s you only lost 1000 playing blackjack, but facts are you lost 1200.

he lost both ats and ml… but on HIS thread (like that’s the only one that counts) he only lost ats.
