I'm an amateur at sports betting for sure, but I think it's beatable especially Wong teasers and low volume sports. Not to mention obvious arb opportunities. I was ramping up to try it in earnest with 25 dimes to run at it when Black Friday hit and I shelved it. But I was pretty sure there were lots of good spots. Dunno if anything has changed in the three years since or not.

I wonder what cha thinks of this. Is it in any way the same as IASTM? lol
Because before they put on the cups, they scrape your back and arms with this wooden spatula. It hurts like a mofo.

Lol Wong Teasers.

They are bearable at 6points for even. Who gives that these days? William hill has the best odds in Vegas at -115. Wong teasers are clearly negative EV at those odds.

Somebody might be able to find some two teamers at -110 somewhere online. But those are still marginal at best.

Last time I saw saw Stanford he was ready to go into the asylum. Believed controlling dice was the future. Lol.

Stop betting sports guys. And cut also. That's all I can offer.

Damn Syndrom. Never thought cupping could leave such trauma.

Syndrom,

Between this and the semen eating I am starting to think you may be a a freak and a very weird dude. What is the supposed benefit?

I don't really know. They claim it's good for your bloodflow. Supposedly the darker the trauma, the more crap was in your body. But I think the last thing is mostly nonsense.

It just feels good/strange when the cups are on there and it's piss cheap. You get massaged really rough beforehand.

Pretty much all chinese people walk aroud with those marks on their back sooner or later. Hot girls as well.

I'm probably not normal. But who is?

I have a pretty good teaser story. Last year in week 17 like 7 games were either around -7 or +1, so I said **** it, and I did every permutation of 3 and 4 game teasers I could with 7 games where I crossed the 3 for the favorite and the 7 for the dog (5dimes software makes it easy to do this, you don't have to manually put in each game).

Anyways, if I remember correctly each bet was something small (maybe $1?), but there were so many permutations the total bet was around $500. Anyways, 6 of the 7 games won, with the only loss being Detroit somehow losing to Packers with Matt Flynn.

I think I won like $1000, but if that 7th game had hit, I would have won 2x as much. Still, was a pretty good sweat if nothing else.

I would like to say I parlayed the $$ into something great, but the truth is that account was cleaned out by the Superbowl (LOL, LSU +5 in college national championship game that year).

So, it is actually a pretty mainstream thing in China, and not a fringe fetish? Interesting.

Yeah, super mainstream. At least in Sichuan province. Not sure about others. Probably the same.

Usually normal foreigners don't end up in China for long periods of time unless they have a serious job.

The cupping doesn't hurt, and I'm convinced the darker the spot the more bad stuff in your body is pretty big bs.... but at the same time the first time I did it the girl told me "you don't smoke because these aren't very bad, you drink a little because these are medium, and you are clearly stressed out because these are awful." all of which were true.

I do feel very relaxed afterwards for several days, but it could be entirely due to placebo effect. Also I've never had pain from them, just a bit of pressure feeling.

This is definitely eye opening. If I saw the picture of Syndrom's dad with no context I would assume it was some super fringe S&M deal.

I wonder if there is anything Americans do that is pretty typical, where Chinese people would be like WTF? Off the top of my head I know a lot of the world is WTF at the way we treat dogs like family members (ie letting them sleep in bed with us and feeding them at the dinner table and dropping $1k+ on medical care)

idk, seems like rich chinese people try to emulate rich americans. buying up luxury goods etc etc. doubt they would find dog healthcare that weird.

The cupping doesn't hurt at all. But the scraping in between the massage and the cups is excruciatingly painful. Same for the blind massage tbh, at least the first time was horrible. i did get used to it after a few times.

Maybe it's not the same in all parlors. I always went to the same one.

Tons of stuff. A long time ago it was considered barbaric to cut anything at the table which is why Chinese food is served the way it is. That no longer exists, but there's still a taboo on blood, and if someone who isn't very westernized saw a foreigner eating a steak that has blood coming out of it they'd be disgusted. most steaks served in China are drained before cooking.

chinese people don't get it why people want to drink cold drinks in the winter, especially water.
shops and restaurants simply unplug their fridges, or they're just powered off year round

if you ask for cold water in the winter they're like WTF

and they drink their beer at room temperature
probably the worst beer in the world too, pretty much water mixed with heineken
