What food combinations do you find to be an absolute abomination and can't understand why others even like them?

Do you think the government should be involved in gambling at all? (Taxes, regulations, running lotteries, etc)

You mentioned sports as a way to make money. I always thought that it’s almost impossible to be profitable at sports in this day and age. How do you get an edge?

You also mentioned that ego gets in the way of sandbagging at golf. Do you feel that sandbagging is ethical. Is it different than cheating at poker?

I am a very adventurous eater who will try anything the said, raw egg dipping sauces never work for me. even the best fish eggs never seem much better to me than salmon eggs we used as bait as a kid. avocado toast is a mystery to me (love tortillas/chips and guac just so much better) even the best preparations of "corn smut" do nothing for me. I like neck meat but i do not like picking it off the spine, very unappetizing for me. savory ice creams are always borderline disgusting. bacon doesn't belong on a donut. i prob have 100 more. lol

well yes, the government is by and for the people. the people of the country definitely should have a say in all commerce, making it illegal seems patently unconstitutional to me.

If you open a few accounts with bookies in your area you will see their lines differ from each other and from the real time line changes at major online books. attack the "lag" laziness and sloppiness. also set up sweetheart deals with the bookies lower vig, cash back, etc. Keep your ears open for people who will pay you to use your account, its everywhere. make sure you remember tax implications on "legal" books.

its closer to bluffing at poker than cheating at poker. if you get sandbagged more than once for a small amount of money you basically deserve it or the sandbagger is so good at their craft you just have to tip your hat and get on their team!!!

they had proprietary software/sims for baseball and could crush small college sides and totals based on better research. obv could easily obliterate all props as well but thats childsplay, low caps on bets and a red flag.

What's your index and what clubs/courses do you play out of, mainly?

One trick to sandbagging is to play PXG clubs with a match bag. Those are the types who always rock vanity indexes, so you look like a sucker trying to buy a game circa 2017. Not knowing what running it twice means or how to shuffle chips, if you will.

Truth is sandbagging isn't actually hard. Just play your actual score vs. most people who take breakfast balls, give themselves putts that go long, etc. It won't take long to determine someone's index unless the person is a 7 masquerading as an 11. A 0 masquerading as a 5 is pretty easy to spot--just call it off. The difference between a 1/2 player and a 10Q takes about 10 seconds to spot.

Playing with better players helps you spot sandbaggers.

What if your handicap is 45 and you are pretending to be 75 Is that easy to spot? If I hit three straight OOB will that raise red flags? I will be using a mix of balls from the bottom of a lake from 25 years ago. Some orange, pink, neon green. Pinnacles. Maybe a couple slazengers. Top flight. Top flight xl. Titleists. I might lose a dozen in a round so that bag will be full of lake balls. My woods might be wooden. I will tell stories of night watering and inviting some friends out to smoke weed drink beer and sexing a couple girls on the 8th and 12th green.

can you explain how the golf betting works for someone who's never golfed before - logistics, how you find those people, how does sandbagging work - ie you play poorly when stakes are low?

You can't sandbag until you've golfed a lot. You can't sandbag with a technical swing. Learn to swing quick and be over the top longterm. Look like a donkey on full swing stuff and dial in your short game. Or play a slice, not a fade.

Generally there are two different types of sandbaggers: 1) the member-guest and 2) games. Games generally start as a donkey-on-donkey horror show initially between two gamblers where an outsider gets involved and gets slaughter by one of the gambler hacks. Do they split the winnings? Nope.

hi limon -

thanks for doing this - i have a few q's.

1. how would you invest $1MM today?

2. which part of los angles/OC would you purchase investment property? this would be for long term holding and just regular long term rental no airbnbs.

3. if tomorrow you wake up and you are 35 what would you change if anything? this assumes you have all your current knowledge as today.
