I'm not the biggest fan of Nicola's gameplay, but when she's woke, she's GREAT. I guess I was really rooting for her because she seems like such a nice person and I was supporting her on BB21, as well as chatting to her quite a bit on twitter. I just feel like I'm on level with her I guess

Yeahhh I don't blame you for the break after this **** luck/streak you on. And point spread is easier when you feel an upset coming (because you get extra pts for underdog = more likely to win it even if your team loses the game). For the favorites it just gives you better $ wins (you can still win at close to the same rate but it is a bit tougher picking favorites, however if you do win at a similar rate you'll win a lot more $ than betting without spread because of how little $ returned the favorites get you without spread)(idk if that makes sense ). I went 3/5 today with the Nuggets being one of those losses (and then 0/3 on the extra parlay/dunk bs ). Feel bad about the Nuggets being 1 of my 2 recommends ugh!

No one? They were bigger/better (& more common) when I was younger but one / kinda a few of my friends still like doing them sometimes (typically more chill & on the smaller side now like maybe 5-10 or not much more than that). Lmaooo @ you going to one and NOT getting drunk Sounds a mess tho indeed & that's how they tend to be a decent amt of the time but fun when you know plenty of the people etc. Just knowing one person (and depending how the others were / if you got along or anything) prob wasn't the best esp not even drinking.

Lol I remember having those type of dreams where I'm desperately trying to make it to something and just can't manage to get there Those are kinda the worst tho, like it's kinda frustrating/exhausting while you're dreaming gah Lmaooo tbf I used to struggle with swallowing tablets/pills too a whiiile back but it gets easy, just gotta get used to it.

Yeah the wins have still been big quite a bit of times too and even if they weren't, the slow rise is so much better than being up & down in huge amts

Ah did you get a sleep then / did it help the headache? Def exactly what I needed and I'm assuming it helped you too? (tbh I wouldn't have even been able to get to sleep with that headache if it wasn't for the Tylenol tablet slowly helping decrease it). Do the UK not use tablets/medicine all that much? I feel like I've read that somewhere that the US just takes all that **** like it's candy compared to the UK who only take it when absolutely needed?

House parties probably are hostel-esque in that way especially if it's someone you're close with like that so it's not too weird if you end up knocking out there for a bit or whatever. You don't do the house partying at all?

-4 is better to have than -4.5 too (although basically same thing) but UGH I can't believe how badly they flopped. The way the other game I recommended (Celtics) was like the exact opposite result and an extremely easy win gahhh Also yeah my Raptors -11 bet lost but the Raptors ended up winning by 5, just not enough. </3 NOT you going for OKC again! Tbh I doubt they lose every game, and they could even win that series vs. the Rockets but it'll just be SO tough to predict any one of those games. I'd personally lean towards the Rockets for the most part.

Ah ty and yeah it was a NICE trifecta all going on at once. Yeah I'm kinda shook that I'm still streaking after some damn nice streaks already. Even tho I'm not getting some of those BIG individual wins of like $1000-$2000 etc. in a single tournament, I'm having nice multi-$100's wins that are adding up significantly & also limiting any BIG losses a looot lately so this is nice rn and I hope it can last

Ahh damn, it's so annoying getting through a day with a headache that keeps bothering you. Gah mine was AWFUL the other day to the point even with the Tylenol medicine, it took a while just for the headache to decrease let alone go away. Even those small headaches can get annoying too. Did you take anything for it or just gonna get through the day with it? Maybe it's an alcohol withdrawals headache then?

Omg oh yeah you've never tried any of the casino games IRL??? It's like a 10x better experience that way especially if you're with friends/people who make it even more fun. Gahhh I miss the darts even tho I don't watch/even follow it properly lol. Hate the draw ones tho </3 Still no clue when those regular day leagues start up again? As for NBA spread bets, idk the two today I prefer most are Celtics -4.5 & Nuggets -4.5 (the exact #'s might've changed but that's what I bet them at). Idk I think another day I could feel better about my picks but if you wanna go for it I think one of those 2. Also going for the Raptors -11 so hopefully they blow out the Nets again the same way they did last time. Sucks that Raptors won the last one & then OKC flopped for you again

Oh really, you're usually lacking energy after smoking cigs too? I didn't know those had that kind of effect too Drinking often you prob realize patterns with it, do you know gives you the hangovers most or it's random? I get them to some extent preeetty often when I've had in like the 5+ drink range. Beer doesn't usually do it for me but that's prob because of the lower alcohol content & with beer I still usually limit myself to like ~5 (or even just like 2 or so), more of a nice chilling drink to have imo. I think it happens most when I'm mixing in different drinks for the night tho but idk for sure (and then I also usually end up drinking more in general on nights like that)

Yeah it can become a hassle if you're with a person and trying to get them somewhere / even just like back on their feet, attending to them, etc. That's good tho @ limiting when out. And ahh that all makes sense and does sound nice to just let loose with nothing to worry about at home

And with that said I'm HYPE tonight. I had another good ass winning poker session! Had two final 9's going at the same time (in the two $100's that I usually play 1 or both of during my tourney sessions) WHILE my Blazers were also in the process of whooping the Lakers' ass. Failed to get any of the highest places tho (finished 5th & 8th) so missed opportunities a bit since when you make it that far those are great chances to win $1000's in either one. </3 Still like +$900 profit combined in those two but ~$750 for overall profit on the day because I lost some money overall in the rest of my smaller games. Solid and hype tho

Yeahhh if you get into spread betting you could make back any of those casino losses in no time. Casino games are just too reckless tho and I feel like I finally fully realize it now after liking the games for years. But still just too fun and totally worth it if going to a casino in person for the experience & atmosphere (and if it's an occasional thing like that it just feels GOOD if you win that particular time and have some extra $ + a fun trip).. but online it's a meeess and ultimately not worth the stress when losing & overall money lost which is just bound to happen over time Poker & sports betting is where the gambling's at if being in it for the $
