The edge is out there u just gotta look:A gamboolin buddy of mine who I have worked on a few projects with is wicked fcukin smaht and is a fantastic outside the box thinker. He won 50k this past weekend betting the under on hotdogs consumed by joe-e chess nuts. Turns out joe underperforms when its hot out and the books failed to account for that. it was 99 on coney island fo

How much action are they taking on that thing that he could win that much? Guess I shouldn’t be surprised that people bet on everything

I did not ask..I assume he had to spread it around (a skill he is quite good at). I think its one of the more creative ap moves ive seen in a while and a very nice score

Were you using the new interface, or the classic?

Hmm

Sorry I have no idea how to switch between interfaces. I think the new one?

To answer the Q from memory, 98s flopping hard (OESD, FD, 1P+draw, 2P+) is about the same as set mining. But of course, the made set is a different beast than the great draw. 97s isn't a lot worse. My memory isn't what it used to be, so it would be great for you to confirm.

If you ever create the ALLJACKEDUP.COM (TM) website, I would be very interested.

If we're including OESD, double gutties, and naked FD, then it's like 25% if my app is working properly.

If we remove those non-combo draws above and remove pair plus guttie, it's like 11%.

The percentage starts dropping a percent or two when we add gaps.

For hands like K8s and A3s, we could start looking at how often we flop an over card plus a combo draw, etc.

Well, the universe is back in balance with the USA losing despite FIFA's best efforts.

Now 2 down, 1 to go. Go Belgium. [emoji1045]

Murica was taken out behind the woodshed for that beating. Yikes.

The missing cat had been on the catio, but there was no openings even a liquid cat could make it through, except the cat door we put in the human door to it, and that was latched and plugged with an insert I made. I made it for insulation, but since one of the cats has figured out how to work the locks, we always plug it when closed. I think the ninja cat either snuck back in

Our cat is still going strong at 13 years. It's probably been over a half dozen years since she's attempted to bolt from the house (usually just going underneath a vehicle in the driveway before being coaxed inside). She seems content enough with indoor life, but we're still super careful with making sure outside doors are constantly kept shut. She still has a hiding spot or two in the house that I haven't figured out yet.

Many of the participants of this thread have the olds, myself included. I have used my body as my creative outlet my entire life. I am doing my best to keep what athletecism I have left as long as possible. As part of my recovery I have been using both the hyperice elite legs and the elite hips products. They are both fantastic and I have been spending quality time in both of them...in fact right now I am currently using the elite legs. This stuff aint cheap but if u can swing it I highly advise getting 'em.

You float flop in position with intention to bluff all turns. Then turn brings you top pair.

Relief or disappointment?

interesting - they have some at my gym. How long are you using the legs ones for....& I assume after training - asap or later on?

also, I've thought to ask a couple of times - how is your mind/brain these days, post your concussion therapy. Have you managed to stop/slow any lingering issues?


FW - i was actually thinking of you when I posted. I run each of them for 60 minutes post. They are absolutely fantastic. If your gym has them I would 100% take advantage and try them out. They essentially flush all the bad stuff out yer muscles and it just feels really really good.

Brain stuff: I did another round of hyperbaric this past fall and unfortunately it really did not do much. My memory and attenention are frustratingly bad at this point. I have close to no retention so learning is really hard and makes life quite challenging. So I have dedicated my time to trying to get in the best shape I possibly can so that I can do the stuff that I like to do in a way that is similar to the way I did in my prime and not like an old man.

I do not know if it will happen but I am trying to get my dunk back. I last dunked at 49. I was very close at 52 but got jumpers knee. My standing vertical last week was 28.2" measured with OVR equipment. I should be able to dunk at 32". I have forgotten how much fun training toward a specific goal is - especially the celebration of hitting milestones along the way

I was logged in on the new version. I don't really have preference but usually it defaults to the new one so that's what I log in on. If I log in on the old one does it let you put slashes in thread names?


It does. I'll let the powers that be know it's not allowing it on the new one.

Good luck with the hyperbaric stuff and I hope it turns things around

Also totally agree with/aspire to a similar approach to retaining physical fitness. Super important to retain your capability for as long as possible

You'll probably get more interaction starting off on the old version too. A lot of people just X out when a thread opens in the new.

Yup. I never respond to alternate universe threads.

on a traditional sportsbook, anyone with a pulse can't get more than $50 on something like this

but with prediction markets, could definitely get down 6 figures depending on your price sensitivity - ie see this example here

i couldn't believe that the market had belgium as the underdogs, made 5 figures on that, regret not making 6

literally wanted to put every cent of liquidity i had on that game but played it fairly cautiously, even most of my action was on belgium +.5 and advancing, not even winning outright

Yeah USA#1 was never going to have the “right” price as I’m sure there were plenty of freedom bucks placed on that side.

Honestly they played worse than I thought they would.

Comparing the Mexico-England game to the USA-Belguim game really highlighted just how bad USA played. The team looked like absolute crap.


Yeah I took a break from poker and 2+2 in the time when they created the new website. I like the old one fine but it always defaults to the new so I will make sure to make all my threads on the old version going forward

Mexico was bad too, that game was kept close by penalties of which MEX commited many.
