15 years ago when I just became a father & I was married. It was Bachelor party night with a good childhood friend of mine & I was meeting him out there with a few other guys. So my brilliant ass decides to get to The Hard Rock Casino early & play some Black Jack.

Brought I think around 600 bucks. Played for about 30 minutes & proceeded to lose the entire bankroll. Mind you half of that money was to spend on my buddy for the bachelor party. I was so pissed & sick to my stomach. I got up out of that black jack chair & drove @ that time my degenerate ass home & skipped the party. Didn’t even show up to his wedding the next week. I was so embarrassed of myself.

We patched things up about a decade later & we are still good friends to this day. We laugh about it now & he appreciates this new found me who I have become LMFAO.

I haven’t been a degenerate for a very long time now, over 10 plus years & I’m up over +100,000 dollars lifetime with my bottom line with gambling. I’ve come a long way from those two unfortunate stories.

I really don’t have any other degenerate stories to share I’m really trying hard to think of one. I understand my two stories probably take the fuckin’ cake though lol.

That +100,000 dollars over the last decade I have profited is pretty much all gone to rent, house bills, groceries, a car, & a few vacations. There’s been a couple years where sports betting was my only income for the entire year during that timeframe.

From sports betting and casinos?
I’m not a casino gambler yea when l first turn 21 it was where’s this place been all my life. But that didn’t last long. And these day’s the table minimums are like if you have to ask you can’t afford it. But the house has such an edge. If casinos had their way there would be no sports books the margin isn’t high enough. Plus they have to employ writers cutting into that 4.5 margin.

Ok here’s another Bay Meadows Friday night racing. There is a big pick six carryover l get the daily racing form the day before and start studying.
A friend lives near the track I pack up the wife and my first born who’s a few months old and go to his house we’re going out to dinner with his family. But first him and l go to the track he’s a Nancy doesn’t gamble. So putting the finishing touches of studying mark my pick six tickets go to the window it cost $96. We stayed for the first two races the second race starts the pick six and I hit so one down five to go.
We go back to his house and then out to dinner and then back to the track they wait in the car I go in look at the results board and l hit 5 out of 6. Didn’t look at payouts just went and got in the long ass line as a race was going off thus the long line. Hand my ticket over and I get $1800 yahoo. Go out get in the car show them the money my buddy says damn why didn’t l go in on it lol.
So the next morning l open the paper looking at the race results and all that jubilation went to utter freaking anguish cocksucker. There were only two winning tickets and paid 96k. The one race l missed was a starter allowance race where these horses pretty much face each other for the most part and the week before this longshot upset the field. So l was torn between him again or the beaten favorite who is favored again. I can’t mark both of them it would double my ticket price. So being a pussy(should of been more like Enilkk) I went with the favorite son of a bitch that horse won again. Doing the math had l been the third ticket would of been 64k. I’m reliving the anguish all over again.

I don't know if anyone is familiar with the sport of jai-alai. Jai-alai is a sport where two players play against each other and sometimes 4 players into two teams front court and backcourt so anyways.. I grew up in the streets of South Florida as a kid and always asking my dad where was he going over and over and as a small kid he would say jai-alai. So as a kid I'm like wtf is this jai-alai. So finally I grow a little hair on my face and im now 17 mind you. And one had to be 18 to enter the fronton. I went in there and played some trifecta boxes had no clue what I was doing. Jai-alai is a round Robin type of game numbers 1 thru 8. Anyways I bet some crazy trifecta that really has no chance to win I played a 1$ trifecta box 1-4'7 1-6-7 and some quinelas. On a trifecta you have to hit all 3 numbers on quinelas only 2. Well as fate would have it those numbers went around tons of times in round Robin fashion you had to get to 7 points to win match next guy or team that has most points would be second and so on. I hit an impossible 7-6-1 for a 1$ trifecta that pays half of the trifecta amount paid full 1518$ I hit for 759$ on a 6$ ticket I was the only one jumping in the jai-alai cause nobody plays that. Everybody was looking at me like wtf. And the rest was history got hooked.

I thought maybe you didn't realize the ticket writer ripped you off on what your payout should have been. Haven't bee to the track in years. really would only go on triple crown race days

I was in my 20s being a degen at Monmouth Park NJ losing my paychecks with this old man buddy of mine. It was close to closing time and I was deciding on being permadone with the track and the old man. I put a random trifecta without looking on simulcasting Sam Houston track in Texas on lucky numbers 173. It hit for over 5k.

We went to AC and lost over 1k of it playing blackjack.

I bought a used Geo Storm with the rest of it and BOOM 173 was born. When I got the license plate it coincidentally read UR173M.

I ditched horse track racing and the degen old man.

Where in South Florida did you grow up ? I was born in North Miami Beach & lived there for 10 years before I moved to Ft. Lauderdale. Also how old are you pipe ? I’ll be 40 in November.

When l was in middle school went to the harness races with my parents and neighbors all in one car. While at the track our neighbor got paged his daughter was at the hospital. I stayed with my friend and his dad will drive me home. Last race l watching the horses warm up gave my friends dad $2 said bet the 5-3 exacta. Came in paid $777 this is in 1968 what a chunk of change. Went home to show the money but no one was home. Next morning woke my parents up all excited. They told me Debbie had to have her stomach pumped she ate bad crabs. But it was really to find out later alcohol.
