I love Holy Grail and Life of Brian. I didn't enjoy their other stuff that I saw though. I don't think I like British humor that much, or even humor in general for that matter.

In truth, the only greatness to ever come from that godforsaken isle was the 7up documentary series.

Hell no. Stupid sport. Before the season I'd pick whatever team Bronny's dad is on and I still hope they lost.

The odds of winning the grand prize of the Texas Lotto is 1 in 25,827,165. When the grand prize cash value is around $40 million as it was yesterday the lottery can be pretty fun to play so enjoy it and just have a ball. However, once the lotto gets hit and the cash value falls below $5 million don't message me saying "Let's keep playing." There is no more playing. It's ****ing over! We are through. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?!?

Yeah, that's right. My message was specifically to YOU. You gotta be a real degenerate to play the lottery across state lines. If you ever end up living in Vegas you'll be driving 45 minutes to Primm 4 times a week just to get your lottery fix.

538 currently has the election odds as approx equal to AA AIPF for Biden. Of course, we've all seen aces cracked multiple times, so this clearly isn't over, but that's the biggest gap in the odds they've shown this cycle.

Probably even harder to win if your opponent wants to run it 10x and only count the wins.

Way I see it - Trump debate strat was to frustrate Biden into making a very regrettable sound bite - like “deplorables” comment from Hillary. Decent strat - given Biden’s recent history of slips - but Trump didn’t get what he needed. Biden faded looking awful. Low bar, but cleared.

+EV to bet on Biden for the moment and likely to hold that way IMO. Betting markets are weighting 2016 history too much (underdog winning).

Garick, I don't know if you listen to the 538 podcasts, but Nate Silver talks about the fact that the current odds are mostly indicative of the uncertainty because of the amount of time left before the election. He says that if the election were tomorrow, it'd be more like 91/9 - closest poker analogy I found to this is AA vs AKoff where all 4 suits are represented (91/7/1 tie).

They had postal chess, is there such a thing as postal poker?

RCP dropped Trump from 46% down to 40% after the debate. My buy order is still good at 33% if there's a seller.

No. I hate podcasts, as I read at like 5x the speed of speech so they are just annoyingly slow and time-wasting, imo. He mentioned that in his last article too, though.

DC- thanks for the Izzy props. Been on an absurd run betting UFC since beginning of year. I’m like the perfectly balanced level of ignorant/dumb and knowledgable about MMA right now. Just taking in good info and watching tape is getting me far.

I had my second biggest bet of the year on Izzy and wish I emptied the clip as soon as I saw him walking out with that gyno nipple. If I knew he was on PED’s I would’ve doubled my bet.

So much effort was putt into making Biden look like a borderline vegetable who cannot put together a complete sentence that it shouldn't be too hard to perform "better than expected."

Not sure if that was put into consideration by the Trump campaign.
