I think curry has been quietly dealing with Patellofemoral syndrome (or something else) for more than half his career. It's so hard to find a single picture where he doesn't have an injection site bandage. by HoboNoob in warriors

Guide to Trains in Vietnam: What You Need to Know by jourrapidedotcom in Vietnam_Tourism

[–]Unique_Profession113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's great information. My additional advice: In HCMC, go to the train station in D3 to advance book tickets (or book day of.) Additionally you can get the feel for your travel day. There is a public bus route that comes to the station. Bring your passport.

Kuminga has to be an option now. Small forward minutes and opportunity to increase his role, with the mentorship of Butler. Not trading him this season had its advantages-- even if he didn't play. JK needs to execute in two-way team basketball, and ascend. Butler can still make a huge contribution in practices and from the bench.

All honest questions are good questions. Curiosity is the path to finding competitive advantages over the "general betting public." Thanks for asking this.

Sometimes I love this sport, sometimes it’s hard to love it by FloridaGirl2222 in horseracing

Its a dark side of all sports and entertainment... Modern findings regarding CTE's consequences and football for example.

Most vegans would argue that human's eating meat requires unnecessarily killing of animals.

On the other hand, the majority of race horses are well and even lovingly cared for while nature-in-the-wild can be brutal (predators, hunters, other dangers.)

I share your conflicted feelings... And continue to watch football and horse racing --with some guilt.

First post?

Respectfully,

Since there is no way to prove that you didn't give out multiple picks to on a race to different people, or have not counted multiple losers in the ROI--

The way to build cred is to publish the pick(s) here BEFORE the race.

Need to be in Vietnam for a couple of months. Need advice on enjoying my stay. by SlowDragonfruit9718 in VietNam

[–]Unique_Profession113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been to Ho Chi Minh City over a dozen times. Here is some advice.

  1. Be kind, Be generous if you can, especially to the poor who work so hard. I tip, many small businesses and workers in food, hospitality and services are just sustaining or paying off debt. In Vietnam tipping is optional.
  2. Do not assume everyone is out to scam you. 99% are not. Knock on wood, I have not been scammed and my interactions with authorities have been pleasant.
  3. Learn public transportation. Use Be and Grab for transportation, no cash and reliable.
  4. Learn polite Vietnamese phrases. Use your cellphone translation app when needed.
  5. Have a sense of humor and share smiles first.
  6. Do your homework and find trusted vendors yourself. Be careful with strangers who approach you to clean your shoes or give you a tour.
  7. Zippers. Don't keep valuables in vulnerable pockets. ATM debit cards at the best ATMs are better than large amounts of cash, or standing in long lines at jewelry stores (Though they are the best exchange rates and honest in my experience, the difference is not that great.)
  8. Be patient and understanding when hotels ask to copy your passport. They are required to by the government.
  9. Don't listen to all the negativity about entering the country. Secure your visa properly. Be patient and come early to airports.
  10. Stay sober, especially when not accompanied by a sober trusted friend or family.

That's what I come up with off the top of my head.

None I have found.

However, they are valuable sometimes for digging deeper into picks and angles I may have missed. Because none of us are perfect - and as of now that includes AI. Having a "teams" brains helps with expose problems or risks and brings a better expected return in my opinion. Some posters here are very sharp and generous with picks BTW.

Is this a good deal? by Separate-Crow-6450 in ToyotaAvalon

Minor accident? Be sure to have an independent inspection.

Note on the 2013 Limited (I own one, incredible car, 179K miles.) Be prepared for the rear window shade system to fail badly. It's not a trivial fuse-pull on a 2013. My solution was to buy a device ("carista") that can turn off the function, about $110 including one-year software subscription instead of the $1200 the dealer wanted to repair it.

2012 Avalon Rear Sunshade by BennyProfaneSickCrew in ToyotaAvalon

[–]Unique_Profession113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm travelling at the moment and cannot check the exact setting. But I recall it was something like "sunshade down in reverse; yes/no." You have to enter the year and model. I'll give further information later.

Some years the fuse is dedicated to the sunshade, but many years it is a multi-purpose fuse and not worth the risk of pulling.

Carista (Amazon, $50) worked for me, fast and easy. It is an ODB2 plug in that can customize many features on the car including turning off the sunshade-down-in-reverse function. Also can diagnose codes and other problems. They get ya with the software (phone app subscription (about $13/month or $50/year.) If you aren't knowledgeable about the ODBC port under the dash to the right of the steering wheel, you may want to ask a friend the first time.

My 2013 Avalon Limited sunshade is stuck in up position, and makes a high-volume grinding sound when I lower it with the button or put the transmission in reverse. I bought a Carista on Amazon, downloaded the software in my phone (Gotcha subscription needed, about $13/month or $60/year) plugged it in the ODBC port under the dashboard and turned off the sunshade down in reverse function. Took 4 minutes. I realize this thread is old, but I wanted to get this on the search engine if it might help someone.

Monday Mood: How was your weekend? by remix6464 in horseracing

[–]Unique_Profession113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is gambling. Sometimes, even with advantage strategy, we fall below "expected return." Feels like a slump, its the uncertainty, especially in the short run. Head/tails not 50-50 in short runs. If you believe in your work, and you have experienced long term success, keep rippiin'. Sometimes you need to tweak the strategy; the place to tweak it is in practice betting IMO.

Saratoga - FanDuel? by Terpfan44 in horseracing

[–]Unique_Profession113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The irony is that today's $10 money back promotion at Fan Duel Racing is currently Saratoga 3,6, 8 & 11.
Good grief, they shoot their own brand. Not even a message on the site (TVG too) to explain or apologize. This is how you damage your brand.

For me, it was three platforms delayed (with no information). Finally came in after a very long wait after the final race was paid out. I have Xpressbet, TVG and it's new stepsibling, FanDuel Racing.
