MY MOM WANTS 65 DIMES ON Real Madrid tonight-WHAT should she do?

slots · Aug 24, 2003

That's right, she thinks David Beckham is going to do the biz tonight at Mallorca and she wants ACTION.

MOM: Slots, I'm feeling strong tonight on Madrid, go LONG for 65 dimes please.

Slots: Ok ma, look, you cant get this down on any American sports book-wanna book euro sports as a service to their NFL customers- places. I'm calling Victor Chandler, Blue-Sq,Paddy Power, Corals, Will Hill and a few others in addition to looking at the exchanges.

Mom: Can't you just go on the net for all that?

Slots: No mom, I have to talk with the supervisors at those shops and get down proper. But it should only take me a few phone calls.

Mom

Hew! I thought I'd have to spend the next 4 hours typing in $10 bets. Call me on the cell with a score update, Im off to play bridge.

Your momma raised you right... I think...
No, wait,,, she was trying to get you to fly in under the radar, and bet 364 times at 4am!!!

I am glad to see you did the right thing regardless slots, i know it ain't easy going against mothers wishes.

Good luck,,, lucky like Beckham...

hey slots,

he already said that the phone service was closed for the night. why does that not seem to get through to some of you

slots · Aug 24, 2003

exactly, see above.

Yeah...besides....not worthwhile spending four hours placing the bets online to find out after the match that you laid 65-1 odds.

The player wrongly concluded that as long as he could get this bet in even if he had to make over 100 different size bets totaling $40,000.00 WSEX will let the bet stand and he'll be paid. In fact they are such a solid book that when they can't get a hold of the bettor to cancel the bet because the info he gave them is bogus, they'll just have to accept the bet. WRONG!
