I just bet SEVEN DOLLARS on a Proline ticket.

[Matty]

Oh, Jesus. That's quotable.

Already sig'ed. Copycat, once again.

fabulous thread

sports and gambling and ass

 

[fiveteamer]

Good work, I stand by my ass eating comments

 

[Hawk]

Welp the Jets covered the -3.5 .

Wasn't a bad dog parlay...Jets looking to bounce back, Shithawks at home and the Sens paying more than what you'd get at Pinny.

 

[Matty]

Good bet.

 

[roguejuror]

This dog kinda knows what he is doing.

Too bad now he hates it.

 

[Matty]

I did lose seven dollars. Coulda bought a pack of smokes.


Kiss all your saviors goodbye
Offer them up to the dead
No kidding you know who's right
And who's got a price on their head

No doubt I'd sell you all out
For a pocket full of silver and gold
Way back when, when they made me one of them
Don't you know they're gonna' save my soul

I can't hang around with you like this my friend
Our time has come to an end

I can't play around with you no more
No, I'm seeing this open door

And I know you saw right through me
Afraid I'm taking you for a ride

But when you're dead you're dead
When you're gone you're gone
I got my conscience at both of my sides

I set out to disappear
And out there I found a new home
But listen Jack, you're on the wrong side of the tracks
At least now I don't have to walk it all alone

Can you hear the sound of the crawling flesh?
Now can you smell the burning desire?
This place is too small to hide
All the ghosts that's kicking around inside

What this town was entirely built upon
You can find it right between the eyes
Its a bullet hole that'll steal your soul
And roll you for your money and your diamonds

Did CB write those lyrics? Probably not. Not enough woman references. But close.

Deer Tick - Baltimore Blues No1

 

[Matty]

I HAVE ANOTHER SEVEN DOLLARS IN PLAY TONIGHT.

Montreal Canadiens
Chicago Blackhawks
Old Dominion - Missouri ("tie" bet - must stay within 5 either way)

The only good leg is the tie bet but we could win over SEVENTY DOLLORS.

[Hawk]

GL Matty...pullin' for ya

 

[roguejuror]

What is this tie bet about?

 

[Matty]

Cigarette money FTW

 

[Matty]

What is this tie bet about?

If either team wins by 5 or less, it's a winner. Instead of proposing a spread, Proline has Visitor+, Visitor, Tie, Home, Home+. In basketball, for example:

Visitor+ means that you're betting on Visitor -10.5
Visitor means that you're betting on Visitor -5.5
Tie means that you're betting on both teams to keep the score within a 5-point difference

and so on.

They gouge people for taking the + bets. Value is most often found on the Tie bet when offered.

 

[Hawk]

Cigarette money FTW

Is that a way of saying you quit a pack a day habit and are now throwing the saved bucks on proline?

 

[Matty]

Is that a way of saying you quit a pack a day habit and are now throwing the saved bucks on proline?

No, it means I want more cigarette money. My pack of Gauloises + a bag of Sun Chips cost nearly $13 so I round that up to spend an even $20.

Weeeeeeeeeee

 

[roguejuror]

How much a pack of Marlboro cost?

 

[Matty]

Close to 10 bucks Fiver. They're Canadian Marlboros too, I don't even think they use the same tobacco.

I discovered Winstons recently. Up there with Gauloises in the creamy-cancer department.

I slowed down a bit actually, I don't quite smoke a pack a day. Plus I'm always getting bummed 4-5 cigarettes per pack. Torontonians are not shy.
