Keep your composure?

Tell everyone you just made some coin?

By dinner for everyone?

Not say a word....

Sometimes its hard for me to not mention what i have going on, as I usually am checking scores etc....

If a $100 win, I would say $20 ;)

That is if I even admit to having a wager.

Winning will put me in a better mood b/c I really hate going there to begin with.

I was sweating a very large play today on the Under in Uconn 2nd half....It went right down to the wire, staying under by 1 point....I must have walked out of the room looking like I just was exposed to nuclear waste, all lit up and glowing...I couldn't help myself!

Usually i don't say much, just act very serious....

not that hard if it bothers someone that much when they lose they should not be betting IMHO

Dante I don't bet the lunch money and I do not bet just for fun....I bet because i love the games and it makes them more enjoyable with money on them....I don't need to bet, I will admit I take my losses hard....

If I didn't get a rise out of having money on the game I wouldn't do it....

most people in my family don't even know I bet everyday. Most don't know I bet at all, and some think I bet on occasion like "most" people. Wifey is really the only one that knows the truth. not because i am ashamed or think it's wrong, but because "most" people wouldn't undertand.

I don't ever say a word about gambling, but in winning weeks I'm always offering to take the family out to dinner. What good is money if you can't share it.

It depends on if they all had the same side as me or not, and for what size, as they can be real pr!cks if taking a bad bath, and I had the other side.

When I was younger I would mouth off, today I don't give a cr@p, and rarely say much unless asked..as winning is all that matters.

Around the non-gaming side of the family, not a word of gambling by me, even though they know I have action to the games on the tv.
