"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

To those of you new to betting, make these two bets:

1) Mayweather straight over Hatton Dec. 8

The real line should be -400, right now you can find -190ish. It has been as low as -175, and may get lower. These lines are criminal.

I fukd up and bet too early, got -210 and -231. I underestimated how dumb Hatton bettors can be.

2) A small bet, around 10% of the first bet, on Mayweather by KO. It should be at least +400, it may go up to +450.

I got +440


--------

to advanced betters, bet your house on the following props:

1) NOT Hatton inside the distance. Should be around -550

2) Mayweather pts handicap +16.5 -550

I only had enough money left over to make small parlays with these props. If I could go back in time, Id take back all my bets, and bet everything on either of these props.

The only way Hatton wins is a rigged decision by GBP. Either way, the two props just mentioned here are completely safe. Empty your bank account on them, no way does Mayweather get stopped, and no way are the scores that wide against him. If the judges and refs are legit, your looking at an easy decision, late-round stoppage on cuts, or Hatton's corner stopping it. He doesn't belong in there.



If my bets lose, Im stuck eating water for the next month. Im that confident.
 

"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.

look hatton merely slipped, when he gets his rematch in the UK he'll pimp slap mayweather back to vegas.
 

"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.

Whatever

Tell that to all the dopes who strongly backed Hatton, both with heart and wallet. I posted this play on another forum and was accused of trying to sway the line to improve my own Hatton bet. That’s how divided this fight was.

Recommending heavy plays at –200 and +450 to beginners is hardly giving obvious advice, it wasn't another Chavez vs cab driver mismatch at -2500.

A favorite billed at –600 who should be –550 is worthless.
A favorite billed at –190 who should be –400 is a jackpot.

Any advise to gamble besides for entertainment, is bad advise anyway. The only smart ones in gambling are those running the establishments and the bookies. The ones playing are the suckers.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

The best "free money" bet in recorded history was Bush to beat Kerry in Florida in 2004. Bookmakers' odds were about 50-50 and the real odds were 100-0. I wish I'd bet all the money I had on that one.

What about the ones making a good living on gambling alone, like my father?

Great bets come along rarely, but they do come along.

Like the Detroit Pistons in 2004, just after they picked up Rasheed Wallace. Odds had them a 27-1 longshot going into the playoffs, when those who had been paying attention knew they were the best team, with about a 50-50 chance of running the table, which they did, though the almost got KO'd early on by the relatively lowly Nets.

That is nuts. If I wouldn't have been a broke college student then I would have made a fortune on that bet. I predicted they'd win the championship the day they brought Sheed into town.

That Nets series was awesome. Didn't Brian Scalabrine hit a couple of threes to win one of those games?

Yeah, Scalabrine got on fire and almost sent the Pistons packing.

Ever since then, a lot of us folks in MI have referred to a journeyman player gettin hot just at the right time to do some damage as "doing a Scalabrine."

I was a basketball follower at the time, but didn't know anything about betting, a damn shame really.

Bonhomme, do you bet regularly? or post on betting forums?

wolf116, does your dad hunt for lines and scalp for a living, or legitimately pick winners at a high enough rate to survive by it? either way it's an awesome accomplishment.

Lots of people make a good living on "gambling". Gambling establishments don't run themselves.

If you meant he makes a living actually doing the gambling, I don't believe you. Let me go ahead and apologize upfront for that. There are hundreds of suckers born every day prone to believe every claim that's made, but I'm not one of them.

The only exception I'd be open to believe is someone who hit it big on a lottery, then that get characterized as "making a living" on it. At the very least, characterizing a situation like that would be misleading.

Yeah, thats why I don't tell anyone in real life. He bought everything he owns gambling including our house and large property.
He also trains wealthy business men how to win, so they look good.
He just bought a racehorse also.

So yeah, It happens but he doesn't even know anyone else who can win.

Don't discard all other possibilities. At just 20 (you), its possible he actually makes it some other way and has fooled you so-far. I have a 4 year old myself. If i wanted him to believe I make money gambling, I could probably pull that off until he was 20 too.

azanon's rule #12; If it sounds too good to be true,........ it is.

I don't get along with my dad so I don't really know anything about it except.

His brother, who is a maths genius invented the system (the system is not only numbers orientated) but he couldn't stick to his own betting plan and lost his house. He taught my dad the system and he further developed it to incorporate more racing knowledge (from watching races and general information) like if the horse got caught on the outside ect.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
