Good Afternoon folks,


When I woke up this morning, I had absolutely no thoughts of circling the strip to find the books that would allow me to place my largest bet of my life.  I had to use 3 books in total and split the money between my friend and I to stay under the maximum at Planet Hollywood.  MGM and Mandalay Bay were also utilized.

Since purchasing the wager my heart has been below 120 pm and I've been dipping skoal since 12pm.  Pulled out every cent from all available credit including bank accounts (and my wife has no clue yet).  When I saw the line my eyes bulged with dollar signs.  The Toronto Bluejays @ Ny Yanks is the game of choice.

Wish me luck because if I lose this my wife will leave me and I'll be sleeping on the over pass near the Flamingo tonight.

Toronto/Yanks over 7 flat.  For $15,000.00 in total wagers spread amongst 3 books between two people.

Pray with me tonight.

Jerry Meals behind the plate tonight.  He's a got a big strike zone which favors low scoring. You're probably in a good deal of trouble with this bet here. I'm not saying you're going to lose. Anything can happen, but in my opinion its not smart to wager such a high amount on the total score of a game.  Especially, not factoring this key variable. 

gl however.  I'll be interested to see the result

You make a valid point and I certainly could lose this.  My mind set was both games this year have been an offensive struggle for both teams (first two games of series).  4-3 and 6-1.  Both games were massive sleepers yet they still manage to throw up 7.  Mlb totals are completely random but something tells me one of these offensive squads blows up tonight.  Could be 10-8 final or 4-1 but I'm praying for the big numbers tonight.  CC is vulnerable here and so is Norris.  *Especially Norris.

Good input on the umpire tonight though.  Appreciated.

I'm gonna have a heart attack tonight.

Totals are for the NBA
At least you don't have to worry about the hook @ 7.
I hope you hit it , but if I where you I would start praying for a push.

NYY for the win.

 LOL, 75% on Over goes form 7.5 to 7 early season cold weather MLB. You're picking a bad bad spot.

C'mon man. You've done these threads before and lost. Nobody cares how much you're betting, even if it's true. Please quit it with the drama.

Only difference is that CG really bets the numbers he talks about.
