Dan Nic and Tony take refuge in a local park for some off topic banter. They address a listener question on how to quit drugs and wander off talking about how all the world is the pimp game (true). Stay up to date at www.lifesagamble.org and send in questions to lifesagamble727@gmail.com

We join our superfan Lu (14 6'0 280) at his palatial estate in Palm Harbor. Our discussion centers on how to improve his stock and be cool or at least as likeable as possible coming into high school. We discuss what we feel are his major possibilities in life, NFL offensive line, WWEs new Big Show and becoming the first fat white non Juggalo rapper. We see no reason these options should be mutually exclusive. Light on gambling, big on comedy. Stay up to date at www.lifesagamble.org and send in questions to lifesagamble727@gmail.com

Dan makes a solo stop at Derby Lane for a few high stakes races. The races were crowded and recording space (& quality) was at a premium. On a positive note, Dan's losing streak couldn't last forever. Could it? Stay up to date at www.lifesagamble.org and send in questions to lifesagamble727@gmail.com

Dan and Tony give a short review of greyhound racing. The track, the program, the bets and your fellow gamblers. Why you should bet, what you should bet, when you should bet. Don't waste your money betting huge on one dog or on super favorites. Look for the "worst" odds among the dogs you see potentially winning the race. Ex. If the 2 dog is 3 to 1 and the 4 dog is 8 to 1 and I think either one could win the race, I'm betting on the 4. With super low odds (2 to 1) it's incredibly hard to make money even on fairly consistent dogs. On long races if the 1 or 2 dog looks remotely decent, bet them heavy! Go bet!
