Yeah 'n they also said another country along w/Aus.....what was it...do u recall? I think it was the pound but but not sure. I recall bein fairly surprised that they dint mention the Swiss franc as bein another good one goin forward.

Agreed in that the loonie is too close ta home (US) ta be considered a decent long play over the coming Q.

Itza blistery 32 here in Reno this AM w/snow in the 4cast for a lil later on...tho we're nice 'n warm in our Suite....my sweet talkin Front Desk Mngr greasin buddy hooked us up w/an even better Suite upon ck'in. It's kinda dead here so I think our timing was good for an upgrade...only another $20/nt....total....so really just $10/nt more each...it's more expensive ta stay home ;)~ Think they are thinken that after it's all said 'n done...by the time we ck out it'll end up bein approx twice as expensive....lol

We ended up w/a 2 room Suite w/2 bathrooms, a nice dining room area & a full wrap around style bar that has a fairly large flat panel hangin over it...the mstr bdr has a flat panel too & the hot tub is in the mstr area (my room...hehe).....there's also a walk-in closet in the mstr too....& get this...the mstr bathroom has one of those....badays (sp?) in it right next to the toilet....I aint goin near that thing :0
Dont even wanna try ta learn how to run it.....man alive...sure seems like an awfully messy way ta "get the job done" :0

Held my own last night on Dal/Balt game....was scary at 1st b/c I was on the over (39) & at the end of the 1st 1/2 it was 9-7.....but what a different story that 2nd 1/2 was...actually it wasn't til the last 4-5 mins of the game where a TON of pts were scored.....was really lookin bad for me there for much of the game...the folks who were on the under sure musta've been PO'd...the game was in their pocket for approx 3.5 qtrs...lol I feel damn lucky to have won that 1..damn lucky.

So since the game ended fairly early & I had a lil casa moola we sat down at a $10 Bacarrat table that no 1 was at...we felt sorry for the Dealer & dint want him fallen asleep on the job. As it turns out we made the dealer shuffle the 9 decks of cards it takes ta play & proceeded ta either win or push the 1st 6 or 7 hands & decided to not push our luck & walk away. The 1st 2 hands we bet the min then as we pushed or won each hand (on the Player side) we doubled down increasing the bet to $20. So we were only there for approx 5 mins & got oudda Dodge & ran back up to da Suite w/our winnings :))

No one else was playin at the table......itza fairly unpopular game but I happen ta like it...very easy ta play...in fact it's 1 table game that u really dont have ta know how ta play....just choose what side ya want....Banker or Player & the Dealor does all the rest....pretty much a 50-50 prop but a slight edge on the dealer bet...thus if ya win on the Dealer side ya gotta pony up a 9.09% commish each time.

Anyway....lookin forward to playin w/house $$$ as long as we can today...mainly on football so if anyone thinks they have a lock...by all means speak up. I shoulda bet more on the football game but conservative me chickened out....was gonna make it a $75-110 bet but decided at the last min while I was at the bettin window ta take it down a notch to $50.....& much of the game I was quite happy w/that decision....til the I end when the tide turned in my favor & I ended up actually winning it....dont think I've ever been so dissapointed w/a win...think I may've been happier w/a loss considering my last min decision ta tone it down by 50% & then seein how the game was goin....lol Guess now that I'm up approx $100 (shoulda been closer ta $200...grrr) I can afford a $100 straight up on a early game...thinken either Miami on the road vs KC...tho I gotta give up 4 pts...& on the road in the KC for a warm weather Miami team that could prove 2 b a tuff 1....also lookin at The Pats @ home vs AZ....there I'd have ta give up 8 pts....but the Pats @ home vs AZ seems like a walk in the park....which it rarely ever is.

Alrighty.....there's the update....we made it up the mountain OK...tho it did take 4 hrs instead of the usual 3....3 friggen accidents we had get by on the way up...1 very close ta home right oudda teh gates...the 2nd just as we began climbin the mountain oudda Sacramento & the 3rd wouldn't ya know jus as we were gettin inta town....tphhfftt!!

I promise tho I wont be given QxQ updates....I'll just post the bets as I make'em in case anyone wants ta play along & or root for me...lol....& by all means...if there r any pigskin playa's are out there or ya happen ta know of a decent spread....pls speak up....heck if I can keep the streak alive I jus even make a few 2nd 1/2 wagers as well. :0

OK....back to the venti quad Buxter :0

Cheers!!
