Damn. I just lost Kurado's house on a bet I lost.

You guys ever gamble? Has it ever become a problem? If you don't, do you know people that do? Card games, casinos, sports, whatever.

Even though I lived in Vegas just over 11 years, gambling at the casinos never compelled me. I never did it before I was 21, and it wasn't until my brother came to visit me when I was 22 that we went to a casino and I tried some Keno and regular slots. I ended up winning 240 dollars after spending five on some Evil Knievel themed slot, and that was cool. Over the next two months I settled down but my brother got to the point where he pawned a 3000 dollar ring for 100 dollars with the understanding that he could get it back in week or less for 125. He quickly gambled and lost that hundred, and now that he's in prison that ring is long fucking gone.

In prison there was A LOT of gambling, mainly televised sports games and card games, but I stayed away. I ran a sports book for two months though, and made a good bit of cash doing that. Until one night a particular game of Denver vs. Oakland (NFL) in December of 2004 or so, in the snow, fucked me over good. I lost 200 dollars and I never ran a sportsbook again. That's what I get for trying to take advantage of the situation.

When I was 15 me and a friend and his parents went to Arizona, I think it was Phoenix, and one of the things we did was go to the dog races. That was awesome, reminded me of horse races I'd go to in Santa Anita, CA. I think that's the only type of betting I'd potentially have a problem with.

Good thing that Guatemala doesn't even have rooster races. ¬_¬

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Hell, I just want a PS2.

How ya doing, buddy?
