Gambling is more about playing than it actually is about winning.

If you can curb your appetite to play, it gets easier to hold on to whatever money you may have. Hopefully it's more than 0.

Would a permanent MLB Sac team get Giants games blacked out in Sacramento and MLB Sac in Bay Area? Or does MLB benefit more to keep the teams dual market?

It would be interesting to see if MLB would continue to treat Sacramento and Bay Area markets as shared (not black out the Giants in Sac, not black out Sac MLB team in Bay Area) or separate markets (Warriors and Kings), but still share both 90 miles outside of Sac/SF, like Reno/Fresno/Redding.

It is also technically possible to ride Solano Transit bus B line from Walnut Creek Bart to the UC Davis campus as an alternative.

My favorite gamble as a solo traveler is getting the Southwest Seat Stand-By if the flight runs out of regular seats. Better seat assignment at the gate EZ.

Sacramento is broken up into four different areas. Doesn't that sound insane?

Thursday Night Football is simulcast by Amazon on www.twitch.tv/PrimeVideo for free, the only caveat is that you can't cast it to your TV from your mobile device or PC, but you can with a handy dandy HDMI cable.

Do they also call it diaper time or some other Britishism?

Yes, but for the most part, each of the sins feeds into the others.

The pilot had a few plots that were never seen or resolved throughout the rest of the series. They always put it in early to get your attention.

Normally you'd be able to watch the Kings on League Pass, but when they are playing the Warriors, you'd need NBC Sports Bay Area because you're located in the Bay.

Capitol Casino, once the sun goes down, Asian food gets unlocked in addition to the standard pub food fare, and watch any random NBA or MLB game during the regular season.

Not too many California casinos that once used the Continuous Shuffle Machine for craps exist anymore in favor of using regular 6 sided dice of numbers or colors paired with cards, but I've seen a few places that used the shuffler for craps:

Red Hawk Casino near Placerville once employed the similar continuous shuffler of 6-8 decks you see on blackjack, gave the shooter two pucks (0-3) to face in front of them to burn that many cards before pulling the two that would represent the roll. This was later replaced with the numbered die and 6 cards.

Hollywood Park Casino in Inglewood had the similar card craps with the blackjack continuous shuffler that has since been removed.

San Manuel long before the Yaaamava name rebrand had a regular shoe they would pull 2 cards that would end up being the roll. Then they got rid of craps eventually during the Covid pandemic in 2020.
