"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Football, Successful... yes and no. I won about 85% of my picks this past season college and pro. I don't bet what I can't afford to lose though and only in small amounts so Its not like I'm a professional or making a living.

I use two compaines

xpressbet.com and twinspires.com

although I use xpressbet like 10x more than twinspires, just out of comfort level although twinspires has it's track feeds at least some of them in HD which i can't say for xpressbet.

Santa Anita (home track) has an xpressbet window and i can fund/pull out money at the window just like i'm at the bank. it also comes in handy when i'm at the track i can make bets on xpressbet on my iphone and not have wait in line.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I place local bets. Ask around at sporting events or others that make picks and you can usually find a local bookie especially in a college town.

I also use betus.com. Though I can't vouch for them too much. I have never withdrawn money from them. Any winnings I usually just keep playing with. It's a form of entertainment for me.

If you are looking to use online sites do your homework and read the fine print there are a lot of stipulations with withdrawing money.

This a good forum for researching picks and trends. http://therxforums.com/

What sports are you interested in? and are you looking to make a lot or just bet for fun?

you say you are successful, how long would it take someone to learn? do you want to teach me? :yes:

there is no "say" to it. every dime i spent the last 2 years has come from the track. the rest goes into the bank and I live quite nicely

Seriously... it's taken me about 7 years to get where I am now and not just 7 years, 7 years of putting in about as much as if I were going to med school.

I'm successful becuase I generally know more than the people I bet against.

and unlike poker or sports, i am taking money from you not the track, so no i wouldn't teach you anything.

you bet 2 dollars.. santa anita gets 40 cents of that, the rest goes into a pool and whoever wins wins. track could care less who wins. pari mutual wagering.
