Oh yes I did. You didnt offer shit, shitfaced. And its welsh, not welch, dimwit. Which is exactly what tellepunk did. He offered a bet, I accepted. Except he ran for the hills when I excepted.
PS I do things on my timeline, not yours.

I used to respond to JeffDime’s posts a few years ago.
I hate playing golf and the sport has no appeal for me. However, Jeff wrote well and hinted that he was flying from Atlantic City to Vegas and points in between. He was intriguing though I didn’t pry. He was a guy to watch.
He got me to experiment with a few wagers. I’d turn on the television and follow. Watching live odds. Getting a feel. Sweating the bets.
I very specifically shared in his threads that I wasn’t strong enough mentally to sweat something over the course of days and not get tilted.
I can’t find my posts and there is no point. Jeff could write and I got to walk in his shoes a bit. He lived a life I only fantasized about.
If you’ve seriously gambled more than casually … stocks, golf, whatever… you’ve felt his pain. Honestly I didn’t even want to reply to his recent news cause it’s so real and raw. I’ve been there.
Respect must be given to Jeff’s contributions here and his pain.
You’re being kind of a douche Mickey. You showed zero empathy. Especially as someone who lived the life. Who are you dude?
Druff, let me know when tellefriend has escrowed the dollar and given you his name and SSN to send to me.
anyway sorry to hear it Jeff hopefully you bounce back
Well. San, I figured you would be the one person to get it. I guess not. When I first saw this thread I thought, great, we get to have a discussion on the vagaries of going broke in gambling and how to avoid it.
But nope. Just people saying "so sorry" and "better luck next time" and "I know how it is" type of bullshit. Nothing about how to fix the problem.
I don't follow that sports thread so I had no idea what Dimes was doing. I offered some help. But split recommended against it saying in so many words he's got a gambling problem. And telly agreed with her. I thought that was strange seeing as how he jumped me for saying Dime must not have been betting kelly.
So if I throw money at it am I just feeding a compulsive gambler? The thing about compulsive gamblers is no win is big enough for them. They'll just keep overbetting their bankroll until they are broke again. So I certainly don't want to be feeding a compulsive gambler.
Hard core professional gamblers call professional gamblers that go broke "bustouts." It's a highly derogatory term. Can't stand a fucking bustout! The reason bustouts are held in such contempt is because the pros know what they went through, all the sacrifices they made, all the discipline they practiced to keep from going broke. So anyone that busts out is seen as weak.
But there is good news and I'll get to that in the next post.
We can hardly wait....
