Yeah I gotcha. It's been so rare that I've won on those under/over ones. Point spread probably works better for you but idk I'm really not confident in going on anything aside from straight wins tbh

Gahhh yeah I mean there are definitely some days where I don't care/feel like it too but in general I do most days It's just suuuuch a good feeling and I really like being careless (more than usual ) so it's nice. I get it tho & I think even a lot of people are like that too/wouldn't care about home drinking and just enjoy it with friends/family or going out etc

Tbh I'm sure it's just because of getting used to/into the UK version first that I prefer it more, like I expected the US one to be the same when I first started watching But yeah I just really like the idea of it being more focused on their personalities and seeing pretty much general life situations on tv/how they interact with each other. But I've def gotten used to US version now & I kinda like that they're different

Okay so now I think I get the + side of it... but I'm so confused at the -, like it just seems to contradict itself to me. Like I'd have thought it would mean in that case that Magic would have to win by less than 2.5 hence the - I remember you betting on the Joey guy in the hotdog contest and thinking/saying the same lol. I'm like veeery slightly tipsy rn but I'm actually gonna read it back later to see if I get it when I'm drunk

Yeah those legs bets are exactly the over/under bets for NBA which I feel are a bit more random but I still like throwing some of those bets in as well I guess I do ok overall with those too but prob not as good from what I'm noticing while tracking anyway.

Ahhh I'm sooo not like that at all, even when I get in that drinking phase I can still see alcohol around and just leave it / pace/limit the drinking / etc. But I think you def just have more of a LOVE for alcohol / getting drunk than I do (& a lot of people do tbf, like I've said I literally just like it for sparking up a night out or whatever)

Yup that has to be the main reason why US >>> UK for me but also more used to the editing/format as a whole since it's what I got into first. I think the latter is how you feel with UK? But yeah the strategy is what makes it unique for me, gives it that extra flare

I'll try to explain it once more lolol. So like in that Magic game the point spread is Kings +2.5/Magic -2.5. If you're betting the Kings +2.5 it means you're betting them with +2.5 added to their score at the end of the game, so if the MAGIC win like say 104-102, you still win the bet with +2.5 as that then makes it 104-104.5 as the final "point spread" score. And vice versa with -2.5 for Magic, they gotta win by MORE than 2 for you to win the bet but you get like 9/10 odds, so it's a bit tougher to win with the favorite but the odds are much more worth it. Anything?

Lol I do enjoy that side of the US version because it's different to what I'm used to, but I kinda wish they just showed a bit more variety in the highlight shows (and not just showmances ). Is that why you prefer US to UK version though??

Ahh I still haven't looked properly at the point spread on any of the games because I just don't get it But yeah I can imagine the odds are good because it's similar in darts when it's just like "how many legs will there be in the match: +8.5/-8.5" or whatever and those are always worth it but idk I find it too hard to guess. I ended up going with Magic tho & the return was better than Grizzlies anyway. I don't really get the points on it either tbh because I don't know the game But hopefully they all come in

Exactly But yeah like that's a lot of the time why I'd always just go out every day to buy alcohol because when it's there I just drink it

You get better odds with the spread betting but yeah sometimes you can get screwed over + if you don't even get it then I wouldn't try that yet. Btw I made my bets for tomorrow. I like the Magic as the best pick out of those teams you listed (I bet them -2.5 with point spread). I also bet on the Nets -2 but idk both teams in that game are very bad and missing certain players that opted out cause of corona. I do also prefer the Grizzlies over the Spurs but idk I'd be least confident in that one out of the 3. I bet over 235.5 total points in that game instead (which is a REALLY high # but both teams tend to score a lot & the league as a whole is pretty high scoring atm so I'll see how that goes).

Omg you really do go through the alcohol QUICK! I mean it's your birthday week (and now post-birthday weekend) so why not tho

Enzo would be insnae. Yup I like that rumored cast, overall pretty good choices LOL I literally switch off when it's non-game talk, so weird how people like different things about it. Like I just love the strategy behind it (and big arguments/blowups are fun too) and don't care for the whole watching "small talk" "Big Brother" aspect to the show that it all originated from.

Gonna be such a slay if Enzo really is on I'm pretty excited for a lot of the potential houseguests though, even the ones I've not seen/I'm curious about. I wouldn't mind watching sometimes/or leaving it on in the background... might even be better than the actual show on BBUS since it wouldn't be all game talk I did used to watch BBUK live feeds a bit when they were on and it was enjoyable/interesting at times. Ahhh @ maybe getting it on your phone

Yeah I'd just bet on a team to straight up win, I think it's easier to call usually. Maybe not in NBA but idk I'd still feel safer going for that. Kinda wanna go on Grizzlies tbh

Ahhh yeah it's messy. I think after last time I said there might be 4-5 more times left but I think after today there'll only be 3 Pretty much just vodka left now & 1 can... gotten through it so/too quickly

Yeah I've been forgetting about it at times too UNTIL just recently, really excited now that it's so close to starting! Mostly just ecstatic about the Enzo rumors. But NBA has been a greeeat distraction waiting for that tho. Would you watch live feeds too or never been your thing? As long as I'm still working home through some/maybe even all of it, I might find a way to watch some during work hours like on my phone or something but idk I'll have to see how it goes.

Hmmm I'll check later tonight @ tomorrow's games & see what I go for then Would you be betting like regular (moneyline) instead of point spread tho since you still don't know what it is? Nice @ getting the free one as well

LOL yeah that does make sense that way like it's not after you just wake up I kinda forget that how your days are alllll over the place NOOOOO is the alcohol gone already then? Is this your 3rd or 2nd time since getting it?

Yeees @ us winning, hopefully you do overall too Not you following my NBA bets Oh but are there any games for tomorrow I should go for?? I'm kinda tempted to go on the Grizzlies for a win OR Magic or Nets? Bc again if I do one more £5 bet within the next day I'll get a free one

Gahhh yeah my sleep is still messy tbh. Oh and most days I've been waking up @ like 4am ish lately so I guess 10am is like my midday really But yeah soda any time of the day is good I've no idea how but I really start feeling it after just one of those cans. Oh and I think I overestimated how long the alcohol will last me, I said like 4-5 times but probs gonna just be 3 And YES you need to try
