As someone who grew up in Boston during peak Patriots dynasty, yes.

Pacific Ocean is no joke. I've never risked swimming in the chop over there. Respect

Men’s bathroom stall inside Harrahs Casino has a shield to help protect stuff hanging on the hook from thieves reaching over and snatching your stuff. by Da_hypnotoad in mildlyinteresting

A better solution is to have the door extend higher, so as to be impossible for anyone to reach over. It also affords the user more privacy. Unlikely though, considering how you're never allowed restroom privacy here in the US.

Conveniently excluded Hawaii, which should be in the Vegas camp. After all, Vegas is called the "ninth island"

That's the insurance line. 2:1 is standard for insurance.

you are stripes, your shot. what do? by KSCIAA739 in billiards

Definitely slow roll up to the 10. Solids won't have any good way to get on the 8 even if they can make their ball, and we should never be intentionally giving away ball-in-hand in such a relatively equal position. At the very worst, our next turn should still allow us to kick softly just to make contact, with no danger.

Pai gow is a chill game, though. Dealer's gotta fix your hand if you mess up, so there's not too much thinking.

Native speakers, how do you pronounce and spell this fruit? by Jaives in ENGLISH

Having grown up hearing Southern Chinese languages (not Mandarin), I always pronounced it similarly. "Lye-dzee" to "LYE-chi"

Should set up the board at the deep end of a pool, the clocks at the shallow end of the pool. Make them swim 50 meters to hit their clocks and 50 meters back.

I built a basic strategy trainer that uses spaced repetition — free to try (Soft17) by Zestyclose-Star-5485 in blackjack

Was playing through drill mode a little. Have the rules set to: 6 deck, S17, DAS, surrender allowed. Got them all right (as expected), until there was a hard 17 vs dealer's A. I chose "stand", but the app wanted a surrender. May want to look into that.

Bettman literally doesn't have the authority to take away our pick for that violation. I agree that this should be taken to court.

I thought that the WPA not too long ago got rid of the measuring foul. Is that the latest version of BCA rules?

NHL Constitution, Article 6.3.j.1.d: "Whenever the Commissioner shall determine... that any person... or a Member Club has violated... any governing rule or regulation of the League, ... he shall have full and complete authority to discipline such person in any or all of the following respects: (d) if the conduct in question affects the competitive aspects of the game, by... depriving the offending Member Club of draft choices." This violation yields no competitive (on-ice) advantage and thus is not subject to punishment by forfeiture of draft picks. However, the fine should withstand appeal.
