    Life hack: go to an amusement park on Superbowl Sunday. No lines! A friend of ours when we lived in LA went to Disneyland every year and said it was awesome!

    Bonus? You don't have to even pretend to care about "football".

    This is a really fun video even if you don't bet on sports or the Super Bowl.

    Anthony Curtis is the owner of the Las Vegas Advisor, he is a true Las Vegas legend who came there when he was 21yrs old and learned to count cards. He is still banned from playing regular blackjack in every Las Vegas casino. He can play in the blackjack tournaments because card counting offers no advantage in that format, so when @Chris Craig and I were at a downtown Vegas casino for a blackjack tournament it was like Michael Jordan showing up for a game of pickup basketball. Chris had no idea who he was but I was really excited and ended up talking to him for 20mins. Very cool dude.

    He and his friends are odds savants, and have won tons at BJ, poker and sports betting. He turned his winnings into a gambling-related publishing company and now owns a full city block close to the Vegas Strip.

    He and his friends are the ones Mattress Mack came to when MM set up his Super Bowl betting special and still handle it for him to this day. I bet @Mediocre Man knows who Mattress Mack is.

    Anyway, this is a fun interview from some guys who really know their shit.

    Enjoy.

    As soon as I realized who he was I really excited to talk to him.

    I got to the final table in that tournament and was a single chip from winning. Lot of fun.

    I'll give the interview a watch

    In fact, I'm doing precisely that. Flying out today, and I'll be at California Adventure tomorrow.

    Very cool!

    I used the earnings from this win last night, to make this wager for the SB tomorrow.

    Wow, not often you cover a 7.5 spread in an OT game.

    It was maybe the most improbable cover I’ve ever had. Suns were down by 3 with .08 left in regulation. Grayson Allen hit a 28 footer to tie it.

    After they tied it I felt okay about the cover. The team and crowd was amped.

    Once again I have not been invited to play in the Puppy Bowl.

    I really need to get a new agent.

    Chiefs are nauseating at this point.

    I like Andy Reid a lot. Mahomes doesn’t bug me much. Kelce I like.

    But teams that are dynasties naturally bug me.

    Probably because my sports teams always let me down and overall suck.
