    Let me know when you miss out on 1500 bucks on a 10 dollar bet because of a last second 56 yard fg.

    :D Cent Sports... I signed up a while ago. It's amazing how fast things spread.

    You have to start out slow though, then you start making 10 dollars here and there.

    Yeah, when your life depends on a website where you throw your money away, you probably end up hating it... :p

    I don't think so.

    I didn't actually lose anything,you always have a free 10 cents. But once you get above $10 it's very easy to go higher. I've been stuck in the sub dollar range for a while. I was so close to finally getting out. Damn.

    Get back to me when you lose $16K on one hand of black jack because you're dealt two eights, then another eight, and another eight and forced to split 4 times...

    and you lose on every single hand

    then i'll feel bad for you...

    damn vegas!

    I hate it when a new black jack players sits at your table and doesn't know how the game works. Like when he/she is dealt a 14 with a 6 showing for the dealer and then he/she hits and gets a 20. Ofcourse they are happy cause they get a 20 but the dealer gets a 18 and the rest of the table loses because of the new player. :mad:

    Oh and the new player always bits the minimum while the other players lose $50 dollars on that hand. :mad:

    i hate when people gamble and think their losses are because of other players "ruining the game". (even if i tell my friends not to split 10's...if they win and i lose when they do it, it's not because of them. It's because I'm gambling and that chance is always in the deck.)

    There should be an idiot table for your friends to sit at. Yes, it is gambling, but there are a lot of ways to make it more in your and everyone else's favors. Splitting 10s is not one of them.

    Whether the other guy splits 10s or not will affect how often they win, but it won't change how the rest of the table does. It will help you 50% of the time and hurt you the other 50%. I love it when people (not you) claim some guy who doesn't play by the best odds is screwing them over. If they actually understood odds, they'd know that it doesn't affect them one bit in the long run.

    The people who b**** about the player who doesn't play by the rules never seem to thank them when it saves them from a bad card.

    anyhow:

    Gambling is bad, ok. And if you gamble you're a bad person, ok?

    except, poker, and sometimes craps.

    Only thing that aggravates me is people who bet the no pass line.

    When you place these bets, do your eyes get real big and do you feel yourself yelling over and over, "Bet, bet, bet, bet, bet, BET!!" all the while bells and whistles are going off?

    When you're on a budget and only have high minimum tables to bet at, there may not be a long run. :D

    Then you should think of it as, 50% of the time, those crazy players are helping you win in the short run. :D

    exactly RM95. The "idiot friends" of mine do help the table half the time. Somewhat.

    I know exactly what you guys are saying, I just don't think it affects you as much as you think it does.

    Anyway, I've seen people be idiots at the big money tables too.. just depends on what time you're out there and how often the waitresses are coming around!
