For almost five years one of the best places to find better than market price on lots of games, slow moving on small markets, eight-cent lines in baseball, allowed some of the strongest correlated parlays in the world, took high limits and would not kick out winners (and even some ok comps). Today Boyd took over the Aliante sportsbook. Time to start giving action to Jerry's Nugget

Nothing good ever lasts, especially if it's good for the little guys. Taking away pleasure and happiness is great for profits.
I am a robot.

Isn't it a 50/50 chance of not being killed near Jerry's nugget?
Expect the worst and you will never be disappointed.

I think you have that backwards. It is a 50/50 chance of being killed near Jerry's Nugget.
At my age, a "Life In Prison" sentence is not much of a deterrent.

You actually think the meaning is any different? Better think about it.

Dang. Aliante had a good half point parlay card too.

Had Minnesota +7.5 this week. But football parlay cards are easy to fine. It was also the only place in the valley with daily baseball and basketball cards that were almost always worth playing. Maybe it's time to move to Mesquite

It was a simplistic statement of danger expressed in odds (simply).Quote: DRichI think you have that backwards. It is a 50/50 chance of being killed near Jerry's Nugget.
There's the chance you get robbed,
Or beaten and robbed,
Or beaten to death, shot, stabbed to death and robbed
Sexually abused, robbed, and killed, etc.
Of course there is always some slim chance that you run into a billionaire heiress that thinks you're cute and funny.
Apparently the odds are much worse near Jerry's Nuggett.
I think that was the point ;-)
Youuuuuu MIGHT be a 'rascal' if.......(nevermind ;-)...2F
