Right now I'm down 60 bucks. I'm with people who like blackjack, a game I have no luck in. I played poker last night and ended up only 8 bucks, although I did get to watch a guy fall over backwards because he was so drunk and someone in the table next to me lost on a bad beat and then sold his watch at the table to get more money to win back his cash.

My football bets are a $25 six team parlay (Vikings -4 over the Browns, Saints -13 over the Lions, Pats -11 over the Bills, Colts -7 over the Jags, Cards -6 over the Niners, and Chargers -10 over the Raiders. I have a $25 three team parlay of the Vikings, Chargers, and Patriots. Finally, my insurance bet is $50 on the Vikings. If I win that, I basically end up losing just 5 dollars if the parlays don't pan out.
