Sigh, as if eejit. Like it was a "choice."

lightfungus 09-07-06 11:44 PM

sjay2k 09-07-06 11:44 PM

You should've asked, i would've sent you the $1100 instantly

lightfungus 09-07-06 11:45 PM

Hell Yeah!

GTDawg 09-07-06 11:46 PM

The bookie wouldn't make a post on his website discussing the situation and allow his friends to negative rep you and berate you on a message board for 6 weeks until you paid.

PShabi 09-07-06 11:46 PM

Now, here's to hoping that $1,000 doesn't go towards bail for me. I woke the dead on that interception return.

GeoffM 09-07-06 11:49 PM

LOLOLOLOL, positive rep., LOL, I did too :D .

Talking Poker 09-07-06 11:54 PM

Best game EVER! I can't wait to read every single post in this thread. Seriously, if that wasn't the most nail biting crazy assed shit you've ever seen.

Woooooooooooohoooooooooooooo!!!

P.S. I love pshabi.

PShabi 09-07-06 11:55 PM

Mayhem told me. I asked him if he posted it here and his reply was, "Should I?" Lol.

Now, I reap the green rep and the love of the forum!

johnp158 09-08-06 12:02 AM

Fuckin A man.


2 bets - 1 hedge between me and my girlfriend = $1485 and a LOT of yelling.

eejit101 09-08-06 12:02 AM

yeah lol, sure:thumbsup:


big gratz to the guys that didnt offset it with a seperate fins bet.

Talking Poker 09-08-06 12:10 AM

I should -Rep him for that. Bastard. I +Repped your ass the minute after I clicked "Place Bet."

I love the internet. And Joey Porter. And ESPCIALLY Daunte Culpepper.

Talking Poker 09-08-06 12:12 AM

So I just read through this whole thread, and I definitely have a few favorite posts. First there is this dynamic duo:

Then there is the tear jerker:

But really, what could possibly top this last minute jab (a response to eejit saying he should have gotten in on this)?

hahaha... :D

PShabi 09-08-06 12:12 AM

The only thing that would make me happier was if I was still living in S. Florida and got to laugh at all the Dolphins fans tomorrow. Oh well, guess I'll just count my dough.

Talking Poker 09-08-06 12:14 AM

If you lived within 2 hours of here, it would have been worth us getting together and watching this shit at a bar. A Dolphins bar.

:thumbsup:

Boobie Lover 09-08-06 12:45 AM

And thus ends the year for me caring about any football game. Thanks for the monies!

ChipFish 09-08-06 12:51 AM

Chip Loves the $TEELER$ !!!!

No hedge bets here!

GeoffM 09-08-06 01:01 AM

Funny, I don't think anyone here hedged.

lightfungus 09-08-06 01:06 AM

I will agree that that was the best game I have watched in a while, and I honestly don't care about those teams either way, but man a little dough and look what you get.

ChipFish 09-08-06 01:44 AM

For those that had bankrolls of less than $3k, they probably should have hedged.
The guaranteed money would have been too much to give up if pittsburge lost.

Of course Sacrificing the EV would not be worth it for those that can afford it.

JDMcNugent7 09-08-06 02:13 AM

that was fuckin awesome.
no way did i think they could pull it off in the 3rd Quarter.

ChipFish 09-08-06 02:27 AM

So That's gotta count towards your Million$ in 69 days quest right?:thumbsup:

JDMcNugent7 09-08-06 02:35 AM

hmm i dn, i guess it could, since if i didnt win $ at poker i would have never been able to make the bet.

Govman6767 09-08-06 03:23 AM

Grrrr Steelers must die !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Penguinfan 09-08-06 07:19 AM

Pages 5 and 5 of this thread are much more fun than page 3 for some reason.

Now you all can take $100 of that money and sign up for one of my promos in the spam forum, right?

MAYHEM45 09-08-06 07:50 AM

Me = lazy. And this forum is still broken for me. Every 1 in 5 posts or so it freezes up and doenst let me post, so I give up.

I got so wasted last nite I missed the end of the game, I only saw up to the point it was 14-17 and figured, fuck, this blows. Then I saw batch with a huge goofy ass grin on the highlights and jumped up and down and bought everyone beers. 3-0 as a starter baby!!

Talking Poker 09-08-06 12:12 PM

So, let me get this straight... even though people in this forum had a total of $5000 - $10,000 riding on the Steelers last night, you are upset that they won because you decided to pick Miami for some silly (what, $10?) elimination pool?

:confused:

GeoffM 09-08-06 12:49 PM

Well hell, Pshabi was rooting for the Steelers to win by only 4, because he got the spread at -5 and didn't want us -4.5ers to win...

Talking Poker 09-08-06 01:22 PM

Yeah, but that was funny. :D

And he was only rooting for them to win by 4 if they weren't going to win by 6 or more.

Penguinfan 09-08-06 01:38 PM

Rooting against people in the forum on a $1000 bet is funny? I'm not sure I'll ever find that amusing, ever.
