Verlander, Vancouver and Vegas

Hypothetical Question:

Lets say you turn on a baseball game at the end of the third inning and one pitcher has a no-hitter going. What are the odds that the pitcher finishes all 9 innings with a no-hitter? Now pretend the pitcher is Justin Verlander and he is playing the Blue Jays. Thejem and I found ourselves in the same situation, and eventually he laid me 42.5:1 on my $20 that Verlander would indeed give up a hit. As you may or may not know, Verlander indeed threw his second no-no, and I recorded my most epic sportsbetting win.



So right now I'm living in Vancouver and trying to get all my poker accounts verified as canadian so i can play/withdraw/transfer. Its proving to be a little bit of a pain in the ass but hopefully within the week ill have it done. I am also trying to play a bunch live, and although its super boring i feel like im way better at live poker than i was a week ago. For anybody considering moving to Canada, Vancouver ought to be at the top of your list. Its a big city with a lot to do and it definitely has a clean/modern/trendy feel to it. The cost of living is kind of high (it is a big city) but so far it has been worth it. I'm actually living in langley which is 45 minutes outside of Vancouver so its kind of a drag to take a bus/skytrain downtown, but other than that its been great.

I'm super pumped for vegas this year and i plan on crushing wsop now that i have all this live experience under my belt. I booked in the lostnthesaus house, which apparently is right across the street from chewys, which obviously means that good times will be had. The only bummer is that we have the house for june 15th- july 15th, and I wanted to come to vegas on the 4th for my cousins birthday and to play a bunch of events from the 4th-15th. If anybody has a couch for me to crash on I would be more than happy to pay rent or clean the house everyday or be an errand boy or whatever for the 4th-14th.

NIce score! Thats just reminded me of the world cup qualifiers. We'd all made acumulators and my mate was so disgusted that Id put portugal/albania down as a draw he laid me 20:1 on portual not to win, Id tried to book a fiver and he said dont insult me £20 minimum. Match ended 0-0 and his big mouth got him smoked for £400
