The Rising Sun (Fork of Degen Corner and SN Bets)

There is a place on Stacker News
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know I'm one

It was a bad betting Saturday in CFB for me but I did hit my parlay in the 49ers game and cashed out my moneyline bet on the 49ers with a tiny profit when I felt I was watching a replay of the Rams game 2 weeks ago. Also hit for a small profit on the Padres to hold the lead when they were up 3 last night (they ended up wining by 8), so overall not too bad a weekend. Slightly down but still up overall for the season.

I have a few small ($2 or less) futures bets on World Series winners:
Padres
Phillies
Guardians
Royals

I also have a few small futures bets on NFL Awards:
Allen MVP
Warner DPOY
Kevin O'Connell COY

I have a $5 futures bet on Shohei Ohtani to win NL MVP in MLB, which is pretty much a lock to hit.

For tonight I have a No Sweat $5 parlay:

Kamara 40+ rushing yards
Carr 150+ passing yards
Mahomes 150+ passing yards

At the end of the NFL Season whatever profit I have made I will sweep into Bitcoin.
Current profit stands at: $77

Sats for all,
GR

Full SN version of House of the Rising Sun:

There is a place on Stacker News
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know I'm one

My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Just like @BlokchainB

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a wallet with some sats
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he gets some zaps

Oh mother, tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the place called the Rising Sun

Well, I got one finger on the zapper
And the other on the X
I'm goin' back to Stacker News
To bet with @Undisciplined

Well, there is a place on Stacker News
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know I'm one

Did you not listen to the advice in the song? Haha.

Always welcome.

reply

You know I love this stuff. Great job!

reply

I knew you would that's why I tagged you.

reply

Fantastic. Bravo.

Can we get an audio version of this to lead into our gambling segment?

reply

Haha. That would be pretty funny. I will file that one under maybe.

Me too. Take it up with @grayruby.

We are slowly progressing behind the scenes.

We got no further information after the announcement. I want to see it happening asap. I may seem itchy but can't wait. If it starts before the Big Bash, I might also make some contribution with some input for Cricket.

Keep applying pressure. You'll either create a diamond or crush us.

Release the hostages and we will talk.

Interesting!
Best of Luck for today!

reply

Thanks. I prefer to take smaller profits on bets that are more likely to hit.

reply

I don't know man if that's right. I don't have any personal experience in betting. 😜

I'd suggest you to bet on Cricket as well.

reply

I will hire you as my advisor for all cricket bets.

reply

I'll try my best to make you put all your money in one game in which Canada is playing.

reply

Maybe not all my money on Canada.

reply

Just kidding but Cricket is the best game for betting for its unpredictability. Anything can happen. Recently India went on a record spree in a test match. They made the fastest 50, then fastest 100, then fastest 150, fastest 200 and fastest 250 in the same match. The morale of the opposite team went so down that they crumbled on a low score on a batting friendly pitch.

The next big league in Cricket is gonna be Big Bash in Australia which for me is better than IPL.

reply

Love to see it!!

reply

I'm pretty shocked to see that I'm still treading water at Nitro, after this weekend's shutout.

I have a bunch of futures still open and can recoup a little if the Saints can win while hitting the over tonight.

I'll have to reevaluate my strategy going into next weekend, though.

reply

Betting is good for fun! I also get in small amounts to stay interested.
