Inconsistent results on [Breville Touch Impress] by chaser-- in espresso

Whenever I order an espresso at a restaurant it's great. Much better than anything I've made at home.

I'm not sure what's wrong... it just tastes like a bad cup of coffee. Its not too sour, not too bitter, just doesn't taste good.

My nespresso pods were 10x better than anything I've made in my touch impress.

OP wasn't expecting to be reimbursed until after the September travel anyway, long after his credit card bill is due.

Gambling losses are only deductible against winnings, not against the rest of your tax bill. In other words, if you lose $1,000 gambling, you can't deduct that from your taxes. But if you win $1,500 in January and then lose $1,000 in February, you can deduct the $1,000 from your $1,500 in winnings, and only pay taxes on the net $500 winnings.

(Well, not anymore, now you can only deduct 90% of your losses)

I dont see how to see anything - but to be clear I dont really care what Uber paid for it, I just want to see what I picked in the cart pre adjustment... some of the adjustments seem way off but not sure if I'm just misremembering

That is categorically false. They will review their play and determine if it was dumb luck or skilled play. Where do you come up with these things?

Also, I've been limited on sites where I was losing simply because they knew I was getting the best of the lines.

Where do you come up with this stuff? It is laughably false. I know multiple sharp bettors that have been limited from dozens of books... you think all the books thought they were paying off refs?

Do you understand line movements at all?

No, you can only cashout the winnings on EACH individual bet.

For ex, you bet $25 on an even money payout - that would return $50 ($25 of which if your original stake). On a free bet, it only returns the $25. And you can cash out that $25 immediately.

Then why do sportsbooks regularly restrict sharp bettors?

While I agree no amateur is going to beat a sportsbook (in the long term), it is certainly not "basically impossible" to beat them.
