I just got back from a two week business trip / vacation and while on
that trip I got to talking to a man about sports betting.

I found out that he was one of the board of directors of a top sports
book. I got his email address. 😉

Anyway, he told me a story about how as a young man he learned
sports betting from a veteran of 25 years. :-*

He told me that he PARLAYED $100 into an account of $110,000.
But he lost it all on a world series play scenario that had never been
lost in the whole history of baseball. 😮

Moral of the story: THERE IS NOT SUCH THING AS A LOCK !!! :-X

p.s. I think we should pay attention to the fact that he was able
to be so successful with parlays. I also wish I had the same mentor
that he had !!! 😉

Baseball locks come with an especially high consequence because usually the price is a lot higher.

Was this an online or Las Vegas sportsbook 77?

He did not say which book he lost the money in.

He is on the board of an online sports book but
I have already determined to not say which one
to anyone for various reasons.

He told me about the scenario he lost the $110,000
in and it had to do with the fourth game in a series.
But I can not remember exactly what it was. I will
email him sometime and get it from him.

To your success, Undefeated77 8)

No prob, I understand. I was just curious if it was someone I knew.
