  1. Will you split, only need 2. Coming from Dallas.
  2. I save all my emails. First year out of school, living in the burbs with my sister 1 hour plus drive to and from work and was bored living in Kingwood working in the Medical Center, so I found other ways to entertain myself. It worked out for me, but was pissed getting the email below on Monday after my Saturday of parlay winnings. My "strategy" at the time was start with a 12 team parlay, take 2 off and increase the wager amount as I went down. I was on quite a roll prior to this, so this "strategy" wasn't how I built my bankroll. Sportsbook.com had a monthly winnings leader board back then. I was at or near #1 for three straight months (Dec-Feb '03). Think I had won 10-15k the Friday before this epic Saturday. Started with a couple sets of 12 teams since I had the available cash. Well, one 12 team hit so the cascade of 10, 8, 6, 4, 2 went on to hit too. In the other set had the 8,6,4,2 hit. First team to hit was 11am Syracuse game. Jerry Mac hit a three at the buzzer with the game tied to win Cuse -2. Luck was obviously on my side that day. So, I'm that guy. Burb life ended after that, and so did my time dedicated to this. Although I did win another $43k during the first week of college football that same year. Rage inducing email: VIP Sportsbook <vip@sportsbook.com> Mon 2/23/2004, 4:14 PM You  Dear XXX, *******04 I'm writing with regards to your winnings last week of $234489.27. Congratulations on a great week of wagering! The maximum dollar amount that may be won by an individual customer on a weekly basis is US$100,000.00. We have deducted $134,489 from your vchip balance. Your current available vchip balance is $104,768.16. If you have any questions or there is anything I may assist you with please let me know. Regards, Keith VIP@Sportsbook.com After a few calls and complaints, (the one 12 teamer won over their 'max') they credited me back $20k. They have since changed their weekly max to $200k if part of those winnings were from a 12,11, or 10 team parlay. A couple years too late for me. A few years later, 2013, BYU costs me a winning day of something like $65k. Highlights here. Had multiple parlays with BYU -1, -2, -3. UVA didn't win another game vs a D1 opponent that year. Maybe run and punt with under 3 min left since there wasn't a lot of scoring going on. Yes, I still think about that game every time BYU is mentioned along with that disaster of a Texas game.
  3. PJ Tucker that turned out to be true. And I'm off to see what Vic has been up to.
