I think that Justin Dew was being facetious about it being a win.

He better be, 5 of 6 is pretty close to the worst feeling in gambling, even if 5 of 6 pays real good, the what if eats the hell out of you.

No, the worst feeling in gambling is hitting the Pick 6 and losing money, which I did on Travers Day in 2006.

Um no, that is just unlucky and depression. I used to think the very same thing and then I realized not throwing the ticket in my back pocket to be put with the other losers was a good thing. This type crap just happens.

I have hit 5 of 6 probably 15 times in my life, and each and every time I felt like "You got to be shitting me"...

I liken it to trying to bang this hot chick, you finally get her in your ride, you are prepping the muscles for execution later in the night, you start making out with her, and then she puts the kabosh on you and says "You gotta wait till next time buddy"

I wish that on nobody

Can I get a definition on that please? I'm thinking that means unloading the gun before hand (aka Something about Mary), but I'm guessing young Tom means something else.

No, no unloading, I am actually talking about prepping thigh and calf muscles, the pushoff muscles.

I have yet to have that happen yet, but I can't rule it out from actually happening given how I usually have no idea that they are packin...

I am talking about the buttock muscles, you don't warm up those buggers up and I am talking about a soreness that absolutely is the worst. Happened once to me, never again
