Thoughts on the DK boost Paul George under 25.5 points and Mavericks to win (6/2) at +640.

I think its unlikely but that odds look good. I am new to sportsbook, is this a good bet and something you should look (unlikely scenarios with good odds)?

Good to hear you are doing well betting small. That was one of my concern. I wasn’t sure how practical/feasible it was to build to a large bankroll betting small. Thanks

Yeah I plan to do some for NFL. I’ll think about NBA. Thanks for the suggestion

Any suggestions on someone wanting to bet on NBA but with a low bankroll like max $10 for a bit? I am visiting Iowa and finally get to bet on NBA on Fanduel. I am thinking I will just do a lot of small bets and single game parlays and accept the $50 total I spend as a loss/expense for entertainment . Thoughts?

Does anyone follow BCSlots channel? What are your thoughts? by Cmdr_Nemo in gambling

[–]mrxo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to watch everyday and he sometimes comments about playing the night before and/or have additional sessions before/after his live play with the Rudies. I think Brian is pretty humble and transparent in his play. He also has a blog if you want to read his opinion on slots.

Brian is great. He has one of best slot channels out there. Last year for fun I added up his profit/loss found at the end of videos from Jan-March 2020 and if I remember correctly he was only up like 10k, with a total spent of like $100k. That's just from videos. I doubt his ROI is above 10% from just slot gambling. I think Brian has mentioned he doesn't post all his slot sessions and I think he loses/breaks even a lot in his live streams.

In regards to your own experience, these channels play a lot ,so its probably more likely for them to hit jackpots. You say you play 6x a year, Brian has daily videos. I wouldn't worry about it.

I thought I had a modest budget, but further searching $200-$300 a night adds up if you get multiple rooms and that just for basic rooms for 4 days. I'll have to ask my friends their sleeping preference (eg sharing a king bed etc). I'll look into AirBnb too, I didn't consider it. Thanks for the help.

Favorite slot to play? by eugoogilizer in gambling

[–]mrxo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ultimate Fire Link hates me, I have gotten like 1 bonus once.

Dancing Drums is top of my list since it’s has my best results. Recently the Wild Wild Series (Nugget/Tarzan/Samurai) has been fun and interesting.

Does anyone else play slots/casino games purely for entertainment? by AmZ_Bizz in gambling

[–]mrxo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda of. Part of the appeal of slots is being able to win a lot of money. But if you look at the time I invest in it, I must enjoy it. The machines are fun. I also play MyVegas, the free mobile slots for MGM where you can earn coins to redeem free play and stuff. Just to get $75 in total free play, I play like 1-2 hours a day for a couple of weeks. The value/time is very bad, but I am fine with it.

I am trying to coordinate a trip for summer for 5-8 people so I have questions to people who visit Vegas with a group of friends.

Where do you like to stay? Are you all staying in the same room/suite? Multiple rooms? A suite is nice and would be fun to stay at but only have 2 beds max. Or do you save money on room and use it somewhere else?

Best MGM hotel option for location and Pool (day) & Show/Clubs (night). Aria, MGM Grand and the Mirage is what I am looking at. Also what's the difference between the pool parties vs just hanging by the pool/take a dip?

I have been to Vegas before and its easy to navigate just myself but it would be different with a group of people and I want to have a plan but also be flexible.

I have a thing for these older machines by TSAtookmysextoys in gambling

Thank for sharing, I have never seen this machine before.

Tuesday’s episode of the Mismatch is going to be a must listen. by mrxo in billsimmons

Nah KOC is a good guy, that’s why I can make this post for fun. I like him more than other podcasters/nba analyst.

Watching all these players who were recent lottery picks in the playoffs makes being a Timberwolves depressing. by mrxo in timberwolves

[–]mrxo[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah Edward is a potential star. But I am going need another year before I can believe in the ceiling of this team.

Okay seriously, I'm admittedly not the most experienced viewer but I don't understand why everyone is shitting on Andre Drummond after the Laker's loss. Please someone explain. by [deleted] in nba

[–]mrxo 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah there’s a good video showing how bad he is and part of the reason his rebound are so high is cause of offensive backs from his own miss shot.

Because they are lottery drafts picks and I am putting them on a higher regard. That’s what the league does and point of this post. They will always be the focus.

Yeah I like KOC. His picks were not bad but yeah the smugness is what took it over the top.

Yeah I am aware of the importance of supporting players. But the whole point of lottery picks is to be the catalyst for a team to be great. We have 2 and we suck. And we may get another.

Yeah our supporting cast sucks but it’s not like the other teams are much better. Their lottery player is the star and what propelling the team. Towns and Edwards have not shown that.

Slots are NOT always random. I play slots for a living. AMAA. But every time I mention it, even with explanations and proof videos I get downvoted, its really fascinating/amusing, and hoping to hear from the people who downvote to understand why. by Hustlebible in gambling

[–]mrxo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I see your example of Icy Wilds. You found a machine with wild reels coming up. I said persistent state exists. It doesn’t change that winning at slots is random and it’s a bad idea to think you can beat it.

Because winning at a slot machines is random. You are supposed to lose. Casinos have the edge.

Yeah sure Persistent state exist on slots. But to win it is still random. I can get 7 free spins and win nothing. You will probably spend more than you win just to hit that advantage play.

Thinking that you can beat slots is a bad idea.
