went 2-3 yesterday with the carry over play of Mets/Seat Over game 1 today.

Wanted to check in to day even though I have no plays.

First time all year not 1 play fits my system.

I have a question for madjackers....This is a "gambling forum" and I have been posting now for give or take 3 months.

I am very surprised no one has commented on my screen name "Barry Chow" Does anyone know the story behind it?

Barry Chow is a fake name for one if the characters in the book called "Bringing Down the House"

This is a story of a group of math whizzes, most of Asian descent, who used the art of card counting, worked as teams, and legally won as much as 4 million dollars during the few years they spent their weekends in the Vegas casinos, living the high life.

They strapped thousands of dollars to their bodies with Velcro to get the cash onto planes, used false names, and were always on the lookout for Las Vegas personnel who would sometimes personally escort them out of the casinos. They also learned about the seediness of the gambling world, greed, the way the Vegas corporations work.

Its a great read.......

I will read the book as soon as I get a chance. Its also easy to overlook a name when the person behind it is hitting totals at 62%. Great job this year. Author of that book?
